 - Input panel disappears Hi all, My problem is that the button for the input panel sometimes disappears when a new dialog is shown. First I thought it had to do with getting exceptions, but it has happened when opening other dialogs as well. The button seems to be hidden in some way. Can I avoid the problem of maybe bring it back by code? /Broeden Tag: Setting the Application Version and Finding it in Pocket PC Tag: 81242

 - Two instances of the same .NetCF code? - TypeLoadException (Apologies for cross post from smartphone newsgroup) I have an application I've built that consists of 4 .Net CF Dll's and a single .Net executable. The application uses a single configuration file to drive the functionality. The configuration file is located relative to the Assembly's installation location. I would like to be able to install multiple instances of this code that are only distinguished by their installation location. This does not appear to work, as a TypeLoadException is thrown when one of the instances is running and an attempt to start another instance occurs. Is this not possible? If it is possible, what needs to be done to make it work correctly? Changing the executable name does not appear to be enough. What other options do I have?

 - Windows Mobile 6 and CF 2 SP1 or SP2 and migration Hello, I'm trying to run a software in Windows Mobile 6.It was written for Compact Framework v2.0, which installer is NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab and runs without troubles in Windows Mobile 5. The software currently has communication with a web server using SSL and but know running on Windows Mobile 6(WM6) the a class System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create(urlPath) throws a exception and says: Could not establish connection to network. I'm not sure if the compact framework needed by Windows Mobile 6 application is the v2 SP2 or v2 SP1 just because the pages to download the SDK for WM6 says v2 SP2, but when the installers is running verify for the v2 SP1 its confuse. Its necesary a migration of something, I, even, change the software platform for Windows Mobile 6 Professional SDK on Visual Studio 2005. Thanks guys by your feedbacks.

 - find out proxy address/connection settings Hi, I'm trying to find some way of programatically obtaining the different connection settings of the phone, and in particular the proxy settings, so I can make a connection to the internet. The phone I'm using (Cingular 2125) is configured with a certain proxy, and connects to the internet through the local i.e without a problem. However, when I try to connect through my app (using a webrequest object), I can't get the connection to work unless I create a WebProxy object with the correct address configured in the phone's connection settings like so: myRequest.Proxy = new System.Net.WebProxy(HARDCODED_ADDRESS:PORT) Naturally, I need something more generic which would allow me to retrieve the proxy settings of any phone. How do I do that? Or is there another better way of obtaining a connection that will work at least 99% of the time? Thanks in advance, Would appreciate any thoughts, Roni Dover.

 - MessageInterceptor Hi, I am having problems to use the MessageInterceptor class on a background app. It worked when I used a device app with a form. But now, I try to use it in a console app because I want to run it as a background process. I have a main class, that is a Console App, that creates a SMSListener class. Then the main class calls the start method of the SMSListener: public void Start() { MessageCondition msgCond = new MessageCondition(MessageProperty.Sender, phoneNumber); msi = new MessageInterceptor(InterceptionAction.NotifyAndDelete,false); msi.MessageCondition = msgCond ; msi.MessageReceived += new MessageInterceptorEventHandler(msi_MessageReceived); } Suppously when a message if intercepted it executes: void msi_MessageReceived(object sender, MessageInterceptorEventArgs e) { SmsMessage smsMessage = (SmsMessage)e.Message; if (smsMessage.Body.StartsWith(keyWord)) { // process message, show a message Box or any other action } } If I use a Device App with a Form there is no problem. It intercepts the message coming from the number "phoneNumber" and process them if they start with the keyword. But I am using a Console App in the device, as background process, and when a message is received from the number "phoneNumber" it displays as normal message for the phone, and it goes to the Inbox. Anyone can give a clue? Cheers, Victor Tag: Setting the Application Version and Finding it in Pocket PC Tag: 81207

 - Phone Application sending DTMF tone Hi. we have a phone application written in vb.net cf2.0 in vs2005 running on a WM5 device, which is dialling out and making a call ok. but, when that call connects to an automated system, we have to send DTMF tones when the user presses the keypad to navigate the system. it's not the standard phone which comes with the device (which does DTMF), as our client wanted to lock down the phone so the users cant just dial any number - they get a list of approved numbers and they just select from the list. can someone point me to the easiest (quickest!!) way of doing this please?

 - Adding a reference to a device project may produce unexpected results I have a smart device class library and I have Smart Device application project that uses the library. I also want to have a regular .NET desktop application that uses the same library for testing and debugging. However, when the Desktop application references the Smart Device class library I get the following warning: "Adding a reference to a device project may produce unexpected results". Is there a better approach for reusing the same C# files in a mobile and desktop application. Should I forget the class library and just add the common C# classes as linked files to both my mobile and desktop projects?

 - I think this is going to be a tough one! Is there a way to keep a device from turning on the backlight and keys light when it's bluetooth services are discovered? Hi, I have some software (on my PC) that polls my Bluetooth devices for services. I have noticed that on my smart phone (Blackjack) when a service is discovered the device comes out of sleep mode and the backlight and keys light turn on. This causes my battery to drain faster if the service polling occurs often. I cant adjust the polling frequency. Is there a way to keep the device lights from turning on when Bluetooth services are found? perhaps through a registry setting or message filtering. I would prefer a device configuration (registry) modification over an application that filters windows messages. This ability is vital!

 - Forms not completely disposing... Compact Framework 2 - SP2 Setup the project... Form1 that contains two buttons and an input panel. Form2 that contains one label and an input panel. Form2's constructor has an integer as an parameter. This will be the identifier when the form shows it status message. Everytime the input panel changes enable state the form will popup a messagebox with the id and the panel's state. Form1's buttons are exactly the same in that both will create a variable for Form2 then call the ShowDialog method. The difference is that one will call the dispose method after displaying the form. Setup the problem... When you click either button the Form2 will popup then you can click the OK button. Once you click the button to close the form the messagebox will popup and state "Form2 - 0: False". Close the messagebox. At this point I expect the Form2 variable to be dispose and irrelevant. Enter the problem... Now if you click Form1's input panel you will get a message from the Form2 that states "Form2 - 0: True". At this point you shouldn't be running any code in Form2... Code below... public partial class Form1 : Form { protected int count; public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); count = 0; } private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Form2 dlg = new Form2(count++); try { dlg.ShowDialog(); } finally { dlg.Dispose(); } } private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Form2 dlg = new Form2(count++); dlg.ShowDialog(); } } public partial class Form2 : Form { protected int _id; public Form2(int ID) { InitializeComponent(); _id = ID; label1.Text = "Form2: " + _id.ToString(); inputPanelForm2.Enabled = true; } private void inputPanelForm2_EnabledChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show("Form2 - " + _id.ToString() + ": " + inputPanelForm2.Enabled.ToString()); } private void Form2_Closing(object sender, CancelEventArgs e) { inputPanelForm2.Enabled = false; } } -- Bobby Cannon www.sharpdeck.net Tag: Setting the Application Version and Finding it in Pocket PC Tag: 81169

I get 2 error messages when oppening any device project. the errors are in french so excuse me for the translation - (in french in the message box : ) error when extracting data from the user data storage. (in english in the same message :) the system cannot locate the object specified - (in french) impossible to open the project, because it references a device platform that does not exist in your data storage the Pocket PC 2005 project type have disapear from the list of project (when i click on add new project) So i have repair the PPC2005 SDK, and it come back in the list.

 - Value in DataTable not changing when new value assigned VS2005, C#, Win CE 5. I have a very strange problem which must have a simple answer. I am new to .NET. I am reading a simple XML file into a DataSet (1 table, 5 rows, 2 string fields per row). This works ok, I can see the data in the debugger QuickWatch window. I want to change the value of a string field in the DataSet table currently set to "123": MyDataTable.Rows[2].ItemArray[1] = "xyz" It does not change! It is still "123" immediately after this line and no exception. The RowState before and after this line is "Unchanged" How can this be? The DataSet is not read only (and I assume if it was, then an exception would be generated when trying to change the value). Any help extremely welcome. John.

 - database connectivity question Hi, This is a Mobile question but not really for the compact framework but could be in the future. The situation is this. I have an application that will be running on a PC in a public WiFi hot spot area. People at the WiFi hot spot will access a website that is hosted on a different PC. I will need a database that both the website and the application can access. I dont have control over the public WiFi network only wireless internet access. Should the database be on the webserver or on the application PC or on both and synchronized. What is the best database connection method to use with SQL Express and this scenario?

 - Public Enum no longer public Hi all, We have a public enumeration in one module of our code. It's declared like this: Public Enum CardReaderState as Integer Waiting_For_Card = 0 Card_In_Reader = 1 End Enum (of course, there are enumerations in the real code). All has been working fine in Visual Studio 2003. Now we're slowly migrating to VS2005. One of my collegues is checking out modules and changing small things (making sure all constants are declared with a type, etc) and checking that back into SourceSafe. In the meantime, I'm continuing support for the 2003 version of the program (with the changes he's made). Somtime in the last week or so (and I'm not at ALL convinced that it's related to the 2005 move) modules in my code don't recognize this public enumeration unless I either 1) fully qualify the name of the enumeration (i.e., instead of using CardReaderState.Waiting_For_Card, I have to use sg.modControlBoardComm.CardReaderState.Waiting_For_Card) or 2) I can do an "imports sg.modControlBoardComm" at the top of the other module. I can't figure out why this public enumeration is no longer visible to other modules. I thought that was the whole reason for "public". Help?

 - Issue using serial communications. I have a simple test application that displays barcode data. The barcode scanner works via serial port communications. I am able to scan about 15 - 20 barcodes successfully then I recieve an incomplete barcode scan (partial data), then the next scan always return no data. After that I'm able to scan another 15 - 20 times correctly, then incomplete scan data followed a scan with no data (and on and on . .). I've tried clearing the buffer after every DataRecieved event, but this seems to have no effect. Can anyone suggest what type of issue I'm running into? This is the code I'm running Private Sub serialPort_DataReceived(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles serialPort.DataReceived Try Me.Invoke(New EventHandler(AddressOf AddToList)) Catch ex As Exception MsgBox("From DataReceived - " & ex.Message) End Try End Sub Private Sub AddToList(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Try Dim strMsg As String = serialPort.ReadExisting.ToString.Trim strMsg = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right(strMsg, Len(strMsg) - 3) ListBox1.Items.Add(strMsg) serialPort.DiscardInBuffer() serialPort.DiscardOutBuffer() Catch ex As Exception MsgBox("From DoUpdate - " & ex.Message) End Try End Sub Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appriciated.

 - Newbie Hi, I am trying to move from native to managed code. Usually I developped with MFC/WTL but today I am experiencing .NET. I have a few questions : 1)I am using VS 2005 and for maximum compatibilities I am going to developp with CF 1.0. Will my application run on CF 2.0 ? I suppose so but I prefer to be sure... 2)How do you write code that can work on several resolutions. Let's take an example : In function of which platform my code is running on I am loading a logo that has a different size. Below this logo I put a label and below the label a listview. So how do I resize the picture box in function of my image size? If I use anchor will it automatically place my two other controls below my logo ?

The problem is that I only know the name of the application not where the user has decided to install it. How do I find out the path so I can use CreateProcess in coredll.dll to start it.

Jay,
You set the version for your assembly by editing the assembly:
AssemblyVersion attribute in the AssemblyInfo.cs file. When you compile the
app, your version will be attached to either your exe or dll.

To retrieve the version, you can use
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version
