    - Benchmark results comparing TCP Socket Read performance Hi, There was a thread on this newsgroup about 10 days ago, that argued the merits of a couple of different techniques for receiving TCP data from a Socket. I stated that my preference was to create a worker thread that polled the GetStream.DataAvailable property, then called the Read method to retrieve data. I have found this to perform better than using an Async Delegate using the GetStream.BeginRead method. Others disagreed. So, when I had time, I created a couple of benchmarks to compare, both for Pocket PC and Smartphone devices. The long and short of the results of these tests were that I was wrong. I don't suppose that I was crazy, but I am convinced that I should have taken a vacation. On the Pocket PC, the BeginRead with callback method slightly outperformed polling in throughput (from 7 to 8% better). There was no measurable difference between the two methods when multitasked with another program to place the device under load -- both degraded the same amount, as did the performance of the other program. On the Smartphone, there was no significant difference between methods. That is, the throughput difference was less than 1%, interestingly with the advantage going to the polling mode. For anyone interested in more information please send me email. I have a Word document that describes both the code and the results. Anyone who wants the actual .NET solutions also can send me email.

    - Database choices 1. With Mobile 2003 and VB.NET 2005, what database types a Pocket PC support? I have used Pocket Access and it seems to be slow. 2. Instead of a local copy of Access database on the Pocket PC, can we have it remotely on a desktop and still synchronize in real-time? 3. If I use SQLMobile, then do I have to have SQL Server on the server? Can you do real-time sync with it? Tag: Problem with SP 2003 SDK Tag: 53881

    - Device hangs. Hi, When i click on the Close(x) button(upper right corner) , my application does not exit completely , i have to use the HP Task Swithcher program in order to close it. Now if i again try to execute the program my device hangs, and i have to soft reset it. There is a Form_Ok event in eVB, is it present in c# and .net cf? I have a HP iPAQ rz 1710.

    - A few menu and toolbar problems Hello, I'll break up the problems I've encountered into a list. Problem 1: I'm loading some forms to add them to a form cache mechanism. When I try to instantiate a form I can see the form's menu/toolbar painted to the screen even though I never told the form to show itself. Below is a sample of the instantiation code for the form. This code is based on code from exisiting form caching sample code posted on the web. //FormType = the form class to load Form f= (Form) Activator.CreateInstance(typeof(FormType)); Problem 2: On WM 2003 (first edition) I can mix a menu bar and toolbar just fine on the same form. On WM 2003 Second Edition I can not see the toolbar when I run the same code. Has anyone come up with any workarounds for these issues?

    - DataGrid in CF 1 vs DataGrid in CF 2 (whats up? ) I have been developing a custom control that extends the CF 1 data grid. Using reflection I have been able to add features like locked columns, value based row highlighting, column and row paging, in cell text editing, control based in cell editing, vertical detail view for the selected row, alternate row shading, selective column shading, selective column header shading, and other features. Now I am looking at creating a CF 2.0 version. However, if I use the Lutz Roeder's .NET Reflector tool to get the internal field and method names from the CF 2.0 DataGrid dll, I don't see any of the internal fields or methods that I'm using in the CF 1 DataGrid dll. I noticed that the new CF 2.0 DataGrid dll is only 12k compared to the CF 1 DataGrid that is 90k So what's up with the new DataGrid I thought it was better? Tag: Problem with SP 2003 SDK Tag: 53835

    - Multicast and WM 2003 I'm having an issue getting multicast to work. I have created a simple sender app and receiver app (separate apps). When I run the receiver app on the desktop and send from the pda, it works fine. When I send from the PDA to the desktop the packet never arrives. setup: The pda is connected to a lan with wifi and the desktop is connected via wired eth-net. The ap is connected to the same switch as the desktop. The pda is a dell axim running Windows mobile 2003. The desktop runs Win xp (sp1a). As the receiver, I can see igmp exclude requests from the pda when it joins the group. The ttl value is acceptable. I've tried both the udpclient class as well as writing the socket code myself, neither of which worked. I've tried different address and port combos. Does anyone have any clues on this one?

    - Larger scale app development using CF Hello, From what I've seen most people using the CF are developing programs with only a few screens at most (I know the number of screens does not equate directly with how large or complex an application really is). Has anyone had any experience developing Pocket PC applications with the CF that had something like 100 screens/forms? If so, are there any tips or pearls of wisdom for working on such a project? My biggest concern is over form management and how it would impact the device memory. It's obvious that instantiating 100 forms and all the controls on those screens would use a rather large amount of memory. In my searching I came across several variations of the form stack example and I have looked over them. I have also looked over the Field Service demo app available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/fieldservice_pocketpc.asp The field service demo groups screens together as a set of panels within a few forms and toggles between which panels are visible at any given time on the form. While no one example app addresses the issue of working with dozens of screens it seems that a hybrid of the various approaches would offer several benefits. Use the stack approach (possibly in conjunction with the Form.ShowDialog method) to enforce that screens be shown and used in the required order while using multiple panels in one form to organize sets of controls into "pages" and keep the number of entries in the devices list of "Running Applications" to a minimum. If anyone has any ideas or feedback they are willing to share on this matter it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you kindly, Jarod Lavay Tag: Problem with SP 2003 SDK Tag: 53722

    - Kiosk Mode withou aygshell.dll I want to run my application on my windows CE device in Kiosk mode (the user sÂ´hould not be allowed to leave my application). I found some saples, but they all use aygshell.dll and this seems not to be on my device. Are there any other possibilites to use Kiosk mode? Can I add aygshell.dll to my system?

Hi all,

I am having a problem with SP 2003 SDK, i create a new windows forms
solution, i try to run it or debug it, it throws an unknown exception in the
initcomponents function when trying to this.Text = "Form1"

I tried uninstalling the SDK it ends prematurally due to an unknown error,
and repairing it does the same thing. Any ideas other than rebuilding the
whole machine?

Thanks
Mustafa Rabie

Thanks figured out the problem, the problem is not in the SDK it's in the
application itself. Please see other post thanks
