BingMapsDirectionsTask equivalent for Windows 8 - c#

all is in the title, I'm looking for an equivalent in Windows 8 of the BingMapsDirectionsTask that exists in Windows Phone 7.
My purpose is to display a route without using the bing maps API.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Best regards

Since Bing is not built in, you need to manually access a Bing or Google API to manually get directions or whatever your use is.

Google, Bing, Azure Maps off-line

I am building an application that can use Google, Bing and Azure maps to display my data.
I'm now at the stage that I need to look into how to display these maps when I don't have an internet connection.
Do you know how I can use these map services while off-line?
Is it possible to cache the information perhaps?
If you are targeting the Windows platform, the UWP map control fully supports offline usage.

Using the bing maps web control offline is not supported (and storing bing maps tiles offline is against the terms of use).

Adding Bing Translation on windows phone 7.1

How to use Bing translation Service on windows phone 7.1, is there a specific way of doing it,
#lmaaa95 -- You don't need any DLLs to use Microsoft Translator on Windows Phone.
Microsoft provide APIs that can be called with HTTP or SOAP.
I've blogged on how to do it here:
http://www.netnavi.tv/2012/05/29/using-microsoft-translator-with-windows-phone-7/
There's also an article here on building WP7.x apps with it:

Yep, there are APIs that you can tap into :)

Windows 8 - launch maps app

We are working on a C# Xaml-based Windows Store app.
We have integrated bing maps within the app, but we were wondering if it were possible to launch the "Maps" app to a certain address?
We don't want to implement full directions, so it would be nice to just provide a button to launch maps so they can do it from there.
Take a look at the URI Scheme for maps application in conjunction with LaunchUriAsync, I think it should do the trick.

Nope, you can't as noted here
Note: The Google+ API currently provides read-only access to public data.
All API calls require either an OAuth 2.0 token or an API key.
