 - VS2003+CF1 smartdevice project -> VS2005 : Resources handling ? Hi all, We are trying to port a VS2003 smartdevice (pocket PC 2003) project (using CF 1.0) to VS2005. We have used VS2005 upgrade wizard to import VS2003 project. Compilation is ok, but execution halts on exception : System.NotSupportedException was unhandled Message="System.Drawing.Icon" Code line where error occurs = this.Icon = ((System.Drawing.Icon)(resources.GetObject("$this.Icon"))); This line is called from InitializeComponent() (see stack details below). Stack details = mscorlib.dll!System.Resources.ResourceReader.LoadObject(int pos = 221) + 0x272 bytes mscorlib.dll!System.Resources.RuntimeResourceSet.GetObject(string key = "$this.Icon", bool ignoreCase = false) + 0x75 bytes mscorlib.dll!System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(string name = "$this.Icon", System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture = {fr-FR}) + 0x3c bytes mscorlib.dll!System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(string name = "$this.Icon") + 0x8 bytes > app.exe!Gui.InitializeComponent() Line 703 C# app.exe!Gui.Gui(Engine e = {Engine}, AddressBook ab = {AddressBook}) Line 130 C# app.exe!Engine.Engine() Line 95 C# app.exe!Engine.Main() Line 155 C# Watch window (debug) System.Drawing.Icon The type 'System.Drawing.Icon' exists in both '{8F16F587-E940-4232-BB40-FE6A09E33941}' and '{6D25D898-BD97-4822-B50C-08C90F269A44}' About CF versions, 2 are existing : c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SmartDevices\SDK\CompactFramework\2.0\v1.0\... c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SmartDevices\SDK\CompactFramework\2.0\v2.0\... Imported VS2003 project has references on CF v1.0. And if I create new 'dummy' VS2005 project, CF 2.0 is used. For example I tried to modify converted VS2003 project about mscorlib.dll used (see stack above) from v1.0 to v2.0 and the result is : CSC : fatal error CS0009 Error 58 Metadata file 'c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SmartDevices\SDK\CompactFramework\2.0\v2.0\WindowsCE\mscorlib.dll' could not be opened -- 'Version 2.0 is not a compatible version.' I have no idea to solve this problem. I am looking about resgen, resourceManager and a lot of relatives subjects... Does anybody have some idea about this VS2003->VS2005 trouble, especially resources handling ? Thank you to help me. WinDevAlex. Visual Studio 2005 used is the 180 days Trial edition.

 - Length of variable names I'm writing a new app in vb.net 2003 for a handheld barcode scanner running CE v4.2 with 64MB RAM. Someone told me they thought that the length of the variable names affects the utilization of resources. Is this correct? Is it important to keep the variable names as short as possible on an app like this--one that is going to be large and involved, so as not to chance running out of resources on the scanner?

 - Verizon Samsung i700 CDMA SMS Hayes AT Commands I connected to my Samsung i700 with HyperTerminal directly on COM4. I can send some basic AT Commands and communicate with it, dial numbers and get some Verizon network info. I want to send an SMS message and can't. I've search high and low. I found GSM and CDMA references, but none of them work on my phone and service provider. I also found some hearsay that one can only send text SMS (no binary) on a CDMA network (I don't know if this is true). I'm pretty sure the phone has the qualcomm chip, if it helps with an answer. Can anyone give me some advice where to look to figure out how to send a text SMS message with AT Commands through Verizon? Or verify that it's possible or not?

 - [C#] Question about Enableding a textbox Hi I have a textBox on my form that I dont want the user to enter text into or give focus to by clicking on it. Therefore I have used the textBox1.Enabled =3D false property. Unfortunatly this also makes the textbox gray and the text inside the textbox slightly darker gray, making it very hard to read. Is there a way to get the blocking of the Enabled =3D false property, while still making the text in the textbox easy to see and read?

 - DLL Files with Build Action Content not deployed Hi guys... I'm using Visual Studio 2003 with the Smartphone 2003 SDK installed. In both a Pocket PC and Smartphone solutions I have a DLL (native assembly) which I'd like to deploy with my application. I've included the DLL in the project and changed the build action to "content". Going by the build log it appears to copy the native DLL when the application is deployed, however when I inspect the device (or emulator) the DLL content files are missing. Also attempts to call native methods from these assemblies gives missing method exceptions. If I manually copy the dll files it works fine... I've tried including other types of files (other than DLL's) and it seems to copy fine. Has anyone else experienced this problem ? Is there a fix or work around for it ?

 - Differences between OS 4.0 and Windows Mobile 5.0? I have a complete replication solution built in Compact Framework with Visual Studio 2003. As prerequisites for my installation, I install the following cabs: netcf.all.wce4.armV4.cab sql.wce4.armv4.cab sqlce.wce4.armv4.cab The program, the database interaction, replication, works well on all PocketPCs up to and including the Dell Axim X5 -- an OS of Microsoft PPC V4.20. A client recently bought a new PocketPC, a Dell Axim X51. This uses Windows Mobile 5.0. Now when I install the prerequisites, I get the message about those items "not displaying properly". Some posts seem to indicate this might be a non-issue. However, when I install my program, the program will run and display properly, but fails with SQL/SQLCE error messages when attempting data access. Ok, so what bits am I missing? Are there different prerequisite cabs for Mobile 5.0? Do I need to import this sucker into a different SDK and recompile? Tag: Hmmm ... display of controls when upgrading from 2003 to 2005 Tag: 62984

 - Using CF2 style Webservice access with .NET2 Hi, I'm developing a web service with should be used by an .NET CF2 client and an .NET 2.0 Windows client. I've tried to put all the connection logic into one class, which could be used in common from the mobile and the windows client. But this didn't work: The new .NET framework supports asynchronous web services with the "MethodnameCompleted+=new MethodNameEventHandler pattern, but the "old style" .NET 1 pattern used in the compact framework works with BeginInvoke and delegates. Is there a way to create (in VS2005) the "old-style" proxy class to access the web service that offers this BeginInvoke methods? best regards Johannes Tag: Hmmm ... display of controls when upgrading from 2003 to 2005 Tag: 62979

 - re: Sound in VB.NET Hi Zalek, You might find touch tone sounds, wav files, by searching sound files on the Internet, then you will need to use platform invoke to play the sound in native code as there is no managed method to play sounds in the .NET Framework or .NET Compact Framework. For an example, see: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229685(en-US,VS.80).aspx Note that in Visual Studio 2005, Visual Basic users can insert a pre-programmed snippets into the code editor for a variety of tasks. There is a snippet for devices to PInvoke a sound. In the Form1 class in the code editor: - Right Click, and select Insert Snippet - Select "Smart Devices" then "Device Operating System" then "Play a Sound File."

 - Error message - installing .NET CF 2.0 on device (CE .NET 4.20) Greetings, I am trying to deploy a VS 2005 Pocket PC app to the above mentioned handheld (a PSC Falcon 5500). I dragged my CAB file over to the device, and installed it, however the app will not run. I receive a brief hourglass, then nothing happens. I figured it might be that the device probably doesn't have the Compact Framework 2.0 on it. I found the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\CompactFramework\netcfsetupv2.msi file, ran it, went to Modify, selected to install Deployment, and I get the following error: (caption) "Invalid Windows CE Setup Files" (message) "Application Manager cannot install this application on your mobile device due to an invalid setup file. Reinstall and try again." I'd appreciate any help. Thanks! Dan Tag: Hmmm ... display of controls when upgrading from 2003 to 2005 Tag: 62895

 - Wireless Access Point Hi guys, this post is actually for the big framework (XP), but I am having problems getting a solution and the nature of this newsgroup is such that hopefully someone did this, or it works the same for the CF and the big one. I must get the Signal Strength of the CONNECTED Wireless Access Point. I can use WMI and select "MSNDis_80211_BSSIList", giving me the Wireless Network Card. From here I get a list (using "Ndis80211BSSIList" properties) of available Access Points and their signal strengths. 1. Problem is, I don't know which one in the list I am connected to. 2. If there is another method to determine this, I will be grateful too. Thanks. Tag: Hmmm ... display of controls when upgrading from 2003 to 2005 Tag: 62889

Q3: The app gets installed as "My Company <ProjectName>" - How t replace "My Company" with my text?

 - Arrow Keys and Tabbing for WM5 using .NET CF 2.0 I am writing test applications with VS 2005 for the WM5 and have a questions about the tabbing behavior related to the arrow keys. When I have a MFC Smart Device application, using the arrow keys take the focus to the next control just as if a user tabbed. (Note: I have the WM5 SDK Installed) But when I have a .NET CF 2.0 application, the arrows keys don't take the user to the next control. The controls have the Tab Stop and Tab Index properties set properly. Is there something special needed to have the arrow keys behave like the user is tabbing? Shouldn't this have been automatic like the managed code's controls? Tag: Hmmm ... display of controls when upgrading from 2003 to 2005 Tag: 62882

 - DIALUP RAS Hi group, Has someone an implementation of the RAS API in VB.NET (compact framework) Know I 'm using a third party dll (unmaneged) to control this. When I use the DialUp function from the third party vendor to set up a connection with, let's say, "My connection", I can't use "My connection" from within windows Mobile any more. My goal is to set up a dialup connection with "My connection" from within VB.NET in a way that I can use the same "My connection" in Windows... A working RAS API in VB would be excellent.... A good connection manger to establish and maintain a GPRS connection on CE and Mobile 2003 would beo nice too. Some help would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to port a CF app from VS2003 to VS2005. Besides the very long load
time of some of the forms, I've noticed I do not get the layout displayed of
the controls. That is, I get a listing of the controls on the form on the
Design surface instead of the actual controls laid out. I'm speculating this
is a switch I'm overlooking?

If you are talking about your custom controls inherting from Control or
UserControl, if latter you will need to add design time support.

Cheers
