Windows Phone 7 Advertising SDK upgrading to 7.1 Test Mood and Advertising change AdControl does not contain Test Mode

Recently i upgraded a windows phone project from 7.0 sdk to 7.1 and i got this error the Adcontrol.TestMode cannot be resolved this is the message 'Microsoft.Advertising.Mobile.UI.AdControl' does not contain a definition for 'TestMode'
The solution i found here was all because the the SDK itself has changed
you have to set the ApplicationId and UnitId properties manualy as follows
#if SHOW_TEST_ADS
adControl.ApplicationId = "test_client";
adControl.AdUnitId = "Image480_80";
#else
// Use your real Application ID and Ad Unit ID here
adControl.ApplicationId = "34fg678a-de7s-67ad-0988-9876543g1h43";
adControl.AdUnitId = "12345";
#endif 


pieace a cake !!!
here is the link to all changes

So one of the core components of  Xamarin  Forms is the Dependency Service, and by the name suggest it does act as the dependency resolver for all forms controls, if you are not familiar with IOC " I nversion O f C ontrol" and Dependency Injection please refer to the link for a quick intro i wrote a while ago on IOC  IOC Part 1 - Inversion of control Principle .  And as of such the Dependency Service is the concrete inboxe
