    - Read Values of Registry Key Hello, I am trying to create a setup.dll file. In the "Install_Exit" part of Setup.dll i am trying to find if .net compact framework is installed or not. My knowledge of evc++ is minimal. I understand from what i read, that i should use RegOpenKeyEx : RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,_T("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\ \.NETCompactFramework"),0,0,&key) After i open this how do i read the values of this key. I will need the values to know which version of .NET CF is installed on the system. I read some where that it would be 2.0.0.0 for .NET CF 2.0, but when i checked that value on my PPC using remote registry editor, that value was 2.0.5238.00. So my question is, is there any way with which i can read these values programmatically. And i guess i can assume that if any of these values starts with "2.0", then .Net CF is installed. Also it would be great if some one could point me to some link where i can open a web link programmatically from this setup.dll in IE. In this link i intend to place the .NET CF binaries for the user to download. Thanks in advance and Regards, Rithesh Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83757

    - Error connecting to DB with Windows CE / SQL Anywhere / .Net 2.0 CF Hi, this is my first try to delvelop an application for windows ce 5 with c# (.net 2.0 + Visual Studio 2005). This application MUST work on windows ce 5 ! This Application has to connect to a Sql Anywhere 10 Database which runs on a Server in our LAN (WLAN is configured on the device and works fine) I used the sample-project "SimpleCE" which came with the SQL Anywhere- Installation to make my first steps ;) The application starts on the device but unfortunately I get an Error when the application tries to connect to the DataBase (the line in the code below, where the SAConnection is initialized. The connectionstring works fine in our Windows-Applications.) I cant catch the Error so it seems this is not an Error / Exception from the CF. >>>>Important<<<<< This following code works on a PocketPC with Windows Mobile 5! But not on windows ce 5!?!?! ######## Error-Message begin ######## Fatal Application Error A security error of unknown cause has been detected which has corrupted the program=B4s internal state.

    - Simple, cheap, big Hi, I'd like to run a C# app (written for the CF) on a device having the following characteristics and was hoping someone could recommend a device. All attributes mentioned below are approximate and can vary a little: -8x6" -800x1024 pixels (color and portrait mode required) -WM5, WM6, XP, or Vista (or some other variant) - very flexible here -CF 1, 2, .... - very flexible here -WiFi not required -SD card slot or HD required -preferably solid state RAM -1GB RAM would be nice, but I guess with XP 512MB would be fine - on a WM device only 64MB would be fine. -slot for adding external HSDPA card or device has built-in HSDPA (required) -physical keyboard not required Basically what I'd like to find is something kinda like the UMPC, but with the 'light-weight' of WM5 or WM6; i.e. instant turn-on/off, etc etc etc. Any 'Pocket PCs' out there with such a large screen? Any and all suggestions and recommendations welcome - thanks. Feel free to send me email: hiltongoldstein...at...mindspring....com [darn junk email software! :)] Hilton Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83748

    - Dialog and Databindings I've read a lot of this in newsgroups, but didn't find an answer. And on my app it still doesn't work as I want. Just what am I doing. I have a form (dialog, MinimizeBox is set to false). On that form are some TextBoxes which Text property is bound to an objects properties. The form has the "OK" on the page header and a Button on it which shall act as "Cancel" First I thought that the Form.DialogResult influences whether the bound controls expose there values to the properties or not. This doesn't seem so. How can I determine if the object properties are updated or not when using databinding? Second, changing a value in a TextBox, leaving the focus in that TextBox and clicking the "OK" does not update the bound property. What have I to do to handle the focus propbelm properly?

    - Control.Invoke() problem at exit Hi I wanted to make a control with a method that is called asynchronously to adjust something displayed in the control. I used this.Invoke() to do this, and it works great until I close the form. Then I get an exception because the method is being called after the control is disposed. I tried to avoid this by stopping the thread when the Form1.Closing event happens, but it does not help. How can I make this work properly? Thanks in advance, Jenny C. // These methods are in my Form1 class protected void myThreadProc() { while(!m_bThreadDone) { this.userControl11.asyncSetCircleRadius(m_tick++); if (m_tick > m_maxtick) m_tick = 10; if(!m_bThreadDone) Thread.Sleep(40); } } private void Form1_Closing(object sender, CancelEventArgs e) { m_bThreadDone = true; Thread.Sleep(40); } // These are in my control: public int CircleRadius { get { return m_circleSize; } set { m_circleSize = value; this.Invalidate(); } } public int m_newCircleSize=10; // public delegate void circleSizeDelegate(); protected void localSetCircleRadius(object Sender, EventArgs args) { CircleRadius = m_newCircleSize; } public void asyncSetCircleRadius(int newRadius) { m_newCircleSize = newRadius; this.Invoke(new EventHandler(localSetCircleRadius)); } Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83684

MyMessageWnd mmw; /// <summary> /// Construktor. /// </summary> public FormCtor() { mmw = new MyMessageWnd(this.Handle); mmw.EnableFiltering = false; InitializeComponent(); ... } ... Problem is that WndProc is called only when I close application. When I click on form or press key nothing is happend. What is it? Meybe there is some easier way to avoid mouse messages?

    - No free slot for more dll's Hi, I've got a project with heavy graphic elements (picture boxes, image lists etc). At some point of development I needed additional dll's but I can't load them since I'm out of "dll's memory" slots. I thought of several solutions: 1) generate a seperate exe utility that is activated from the main exe, and is actually an interface to the dll. (did that. takes too long for the exe to load each time I need it). 2) Use the same utility as a tcp/ip server. did that. for some reason, the utility is ending with "native error"... and restarted automatically by my software. 3) Use messaging. 4) try to load the bitmaps on the fly, only the needed ones. This way I might free enough space for the additional dll. My questions: 1) Are there any other solutions? 2) What is your opinion about the best way to solve it? 3) How can I check to see how far am I from being able to load additional dll('s) ? (current allocated memory / dll's size etc )? Thanks for all the help. Empi. Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83675

    - Closing Sockets Hi guys, I'm developing an application for the windows ce 4.2, I'm using .Net Compact Framework 2.0 SP2 (manually installed) , I'm comunicating with a server using a simple WinSocket 2 protocol, it works nice, however I came across some problems I cant call the Close method on the TcpClient object I'm using to connect to the server, If I call this method, next time I create a TcpClient I cant perform a read operation It will wait forever unless I write more data into the stream; if I dont close the TcpClient object and I just let it go out of scope it works fine, I'm a little worried about leaking memory with this beahavior. Has anyone experienced somthing like this? A couple of more questions: 1- how do I specify the installation folder for the GAC in the compactframework cab? it seems it always writes something to the windows folder and I lost those files everytime I hard reset my device! 2- maybe somebody can tell me how can I force my device to connect to a wireless network whenever it is on range Thanks in advance! -- Roberto Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83674

    - Doesn't make sense at all.......send/recv in socket... Hi, It makes me crazy.......I can't figure it out why it is happening at all...so strange.. Here is the how system works... Development environment. Client : .NET Compact Framework 2.0/PPC Server: .NET Framework 2.0 PPC connects to the server to transfer a file.

HOWEVER, the problem arise when testing this with the cradled device. With the cradled device, the server ONLY receives 99% data. For example, if I send a file (162KB) from the PPC, the server ONLY receives 161KB. I tried to fix possible soultions as best as I can...However, I can't figure out how this works WITH THE CRADLED device. Once I take off the device from the cradle, then test under wireless connection, it WORKS perfectly..... It is so strange......Why the server ONLY receives 99% when the PPC cradles?????

    - Strange sudden shutdown issue with CF app Hi, We have created an app that basically connects to a web service gets data, then stores it locally on the device, and when a record needs to be modified/added the system first tries to connect the web server sees if its availible, if not then it stores in locally on the device until the connection comes back, now I noticed that if the device does not mess around with the data connection then the application sits nicely as long as its open, and never gets shut down (unless the system automatically shuts it down due to memory constraints). However on devices that has a phone, and even more if the device is connected to an exchange server with push email and/or there are calls for a longer period of time, if you go back to the application afterword and while doing basically anything that worked before (before a lengthy call or so, don't know really what is causing but I've seen some indication that this might be the case) like a charm but now doing that same action will blow out the program, most of the times without any exception, and sometimes I would get NullReferenceException and the trace will show really basic internal trace, and everytime something else where the same action before worked just fine, and also note that those exceptions point no where to anything related to the connectivity of the device, but mostly front end stuff. But again most of the time I get no exception at all but just simply disappears. It might be that there are some external native exception that is not being chought but am puzzled at where to start looking. Hope someone might come up with some, as I'm puzzled and dont know where to focus on. Regards and thanks in advance Shloma Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83617

(I assume that the information has to be available somewhere, because the DataGrid adjusts its vertical scrollbar according to number of results) Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83588

    - Resource dll query Hi, we have a PocketPC Vb.NET CF V1 SP3 exe but also have C++ background exe to make up the application. Is it possible to have a common language resources dll for both the C++ and VB app or do we need separate resource dll for the managed and native code. I understand i need a separate dll per language of course. Thanks Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83586

I manage to get the current time zone. However, how do I display all supported time zones as we usually see on the control panel? How can I collect all the time zones and display it on a combo box and set it to the current time zone when selected? Thanks in advance. Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83583

    - Converting Desktop Project to Compact Framework I have come across an Open Source project written in C#. I would like to try my hand at porting it to the Compact Framework. Before I can get started however I need to convert/create CF projects for the code. The code consists of a library and an application. Both are structured with various sub directories containing files that pertain to a specific area of functionality. As far as I can tell I need to manually create all directories in Visual Studio, then copy the files into the newly created directories and finally add them to the CF projects. Is there anyway to convert a desktop solution to a CF solution without so much monkey work? Pat O Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83576

    - problem with dbnull errors Hello I have a project in VS 2005, VB.net and .NET CF. I have one particular form with controls that are bound to a stronly typed dataset. In the Load event of the form, there are 4 tableadapters that fill. The first 3 fill fine. The last one throws a NoNullAllowedException, telling me Column ColumnName does not allow Null. All of the columns in the datatable are set to allow nulls. I am not sure how to solve this problem. I even set that particular field in code to AllowDBNull Please help. I have worked on this one for 3 days. Has anyone run into this problem? Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83563

    - how to filter and hide poom appointments in datagrid hi there, i am having a problem about how to filter and hide some of the appointments in a datagrid. i am working on a wm5 calendar application using c# 2005 and cf2.0. i built a datagrid with: private AppointmentCollection apptcollection; apptcollection = outlooksession.Appointments.Items; dgrid.datasource = apptcollection; everything seems fine as i can use the Restrict method to filter the appointments that i want to display. however, the Restrict method cannot handle criterion which is a bit more complicated, e.g. Appointment.Location contains (not equals to) "Office". i guess what i need to do is looping through the restricted apptcollection, and hide or remove the rows that i do not want. i do not want to directly remove the rows in apptcollection because it really causes the records to be deleted from the database. i know a dataview can do what i want, however it does not accept apptcollection to be its source because apptcollection is not a datatable, i.e. DataView firstView = new DataView(apptcollection); *** compile error *** Argument '1': cannot convert from 'Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.AppointmentCollection' to 'System.Data.DataTable' can anyone tell me what i can do to hide or remove some rows from a datagrid without affecting the underlying data records? thanks batterheadccw Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83561

    - Camera hardware button in the registry I have an app that we use on 3 different devices and looking at the button configuration the camera button has a different hardware key on each one. I want to assign the camera hardware button to a button in my app on a specic screen but have issues due to it being different for each device. Is the key assigned to the camera stored in the registry somewhere so I can assign it programatically at runtime? Craig Tag: Async sockets Tag: 83557

Hi,

We were using AppForge Crossfire until they disappeared a little while ago.
So now were looking at replacing various bits of that with other components.

Regarding sockets, we would like a component that works asyncronously, so we
can catch an event when data arrives, and then simply read it from a
property. This would fit in with existing code so re-writes wuld be kept to
a minimum.

Does anyone know of such a component ?

Cheers,
Philip.

Hi,

See our SocketPro at www.udaparts.com

See the site http://www.udaparts.com/document/articles/dialupdb.htm All of
socket communications are implemented in non-blocking way.

See the site http://www.udaparts.com/document/articles/demome.htm

Philip,
The compact framework has a System.Net.Sockets.Socket class. This class has
a BeginReceive that allows you to asynchronously receive from connected
sockets and an accept method that allows you to intercept incoming socket
request and process them. There are examples on MSDN that show how to use
these components both synchronously and asynchronously.
