    - What does Compact Framework add... Is there a comparison chart between a PocketPC without CF, with CF1, CF1+SP1, CF1+SP2 and the upcoming CF2?? As a side note, would the use of RAPI (for example OpenNETCF.org's Desktop Communication API) require any of the CF sets or would it be runnable without CF (i.e. on a PocketPC 2002 machine)? / Peter Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using?

    - Problem using Sockets on Windows CE 4.2 .net in C# I have an application that serves as a server that cliets hug into using asyncrone socket communication. it works fine most of the time, but from time to time i get and exception: Exception: System.IO.IOException Message: Unable to read data from the transport connection. Nested Exception Exception: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException Message: A blocking operation was interrupted by a call to WSACancelBlockingCall I cant do any thing to reproduce it regular, it happens from time to time. Searching the net har not given me any ideas of what is happening. I found one post that said it is a bug in the compact framework and would be fixed in the future. Can any one verify this, or tell me what migth be causing the exception, or how to correct it. -Finn Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using? Tag: 33510

    - Repost: Switching between forms leaves forms minimized I enclose a simple application to show this. This can be seen on the emulator as well as on the device. The app. simply navigates between the two forms. When the app. starts up, the first form is maximized (i.e. not an icon on the taskbar). However, navigating to the next form causes the second form to be minimized on the task bar even though I have set this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized; in both the constructor and On_Load event in both forms. By googling on the group, I found that this.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.None; forces the windows to maximize but they minimize first and then maximize which causes the screen to "flash" and looks ugly. Also, in this mode, the "Show desktop" icon in the lower right-hand corner is no longer functional. Can anyone shed some light on this?

    - Dynamic controls and handlers I have a form with a number of buttons that are generated in a panel based on the results of a query. They all use the same click event handler. I am having trouble determining which button was pressed. I can only go by the button text or the button position to distinguish them - neither of which works well for my situation. Is there a better way? Should I create my own button class inheiriting Button and add my own custom id fields? Thanks/Dave They are created as: while (...) { Button btnClient = new Button(); btnClient.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, (numClients*32) + 8); btnClient.Width = 150; btnClient.Text = full_name; btnClient.Click += new System.EventHandler(btnClient_Click); pnlScroll.Controls.Add(btnClient); numClients ++; } I have a generic handler for these buttons: private void btnClient_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { Button btnClient = (Button)sender; // Determine which button was pressed here } Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using?

I know there is the Exception Management Application Block which is supposed to represent Microsoft's 'Best Practices' but this seems like overkill to use with PocketPC.

    - WebRequest.Timeout bugs? I'm trying to understand why our mobile client isn't behaving gracefully with a "hung" server. The server is accepting web requests, but then not responding to them. Obviously we're working on that side of the problem too, but we thought that by putting a timeout on the WebRequest, and backing off in the same was as we do for other errors, that we'd have a robust system. Apparently we don't. I'm being absolutely rigorous in cleaning up - not only am I calling Close() on every WebResponse received (including those embedded in WebExceptions) but I'm also closing the ResponseStream - hopefully unnecessarily. The situation is slightly complicated by the server being hung in such a way that the first request is rejected (correctly) with a 401 response due to the way our authentication works. (The first request for any client is a 401 with a nonce to use for future authentication.) The first request works fine with a suitably high timeout, although it *does* time out if the timeout is set very low. The second request (which the server actually hangs on) never seems to time out. It's as if the timeout only applies from the start of the call (WebRequest.GetResponse) to the time at which the connection is actually made. Does anyone have any idea what's going on, and how to fix it? -- Jon Skeet - <skeet@pobox.com> http://www.pobox.com/~skeet If replying to the group, please do not mail me too Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using?

    - Serial Port programming with OpenNetCF Question To all, I've used the OpenNetCF classes to build a demo program to test serial port communication, but somehow I don't really know how to send data since the example I've got is only how to receive data. Questions: 1) can I really write such a demo program using the VS.Net Emulator ?? Since I've read quite a no. of forums complaining Serial Port is not working on Emulators 2) if I want to send data, I should use "Port.Output = new byte[]{11, 12.....}" and it will invoke the delegate /event for data receiving ??? 3) as from the example program, I should use "Port.Input" to receive the byte[] sent by the Tx side ??? 4) How can I know the communication is in half or full duplex ?? (actually can I set 1/2 or full duplex ??) Thanks! From Jason (Kusanagihk) Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using? Tag: 33442

    - listview columnwidth to largest subitem? Hi, I have a datareader filling a listview, after that I want to set my listview column width to the largest subitem in the column. You could do that by setting width to -1. I already found out about a bug that you could not set -1 by the columns.add method ([url]http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;316572[/url]) But it won't work like they descripe there either. CODE private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem(); listView1.View = View.Details; item.Text = "This is Item 1"; item.SubItems.Add("This is subitem 1 for item 1"); item.SubItems.Add("This is subitem 2 for item 1"); listView1.Items.Add(item); ListViewItem item1 = new ListViewItem(); item1.Text = "This is Item 2"; item1.SubItems.Add("This is subitem 1 for item 2"); item1.SubItems.Add("This is subitem 2 for item 2"); listView1.Items.Add(item1); listView1.Columns.Add("Column 1",-1, HorizontalAlignment.Left); listView1.Columns.Add("Column 2", -2, HorizontalAlignment.Left); listView1.Columns.Add("Column 3", -1, HorizontalAlignment.Left); listView1.Columns[0].Width = -1; } So in the add method it will not work but listView1.Columns[0].Width = -1; should set column[0].width to the largest subitem in the column ... but it doesn't... Can anyone tell me how I can solve this? (it works fine on the .NET framework, not on the .NET compact framework) Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using? Tag: 33440

    - Binding! Alright I am just about to start development on a new app and could do with a bit of help :) I've got two ideas and just wondering which people think is the best or quickest. 1: I have a table (2 columns), it is used as a "lookup" table i.e. Item Code crisps 1 coke 2 etc... My main table which stores my data has a field called "ItemCode" which holds the code. I want to have a combobox that shows the "Item" field from the lookup table but is bound to Item in my other table. 2: combo box shows fields but isnt bound and then when the save button is pressed an sql statement is executed which updates the row with the new value. I think this method maybe slower when moving records because ill have to set the values of all controls where as with method 1 they will be bound.

    - Thread not starting I've got a problem starting a thread in c#. Two scenarios. 1) got a form, which creates an instance of a class. in the constructor of the class is a call to a method which starts a thread. public void StartThread () { new Thread (new ThreadStart (this.WaitExecute)).start(); Console.WriteLine ("thread started") } private void WaitExecute() { Console.WriteLine ("thread sleep"); Thread.Sleep (30000); SignOn(); this.Invoke (new EventHandler (this.Restart)); Console.WriteLine ("thread done"); } this works. scenario 2 send 2 msmq messages (send 1 and its fine) and the thread doesnt start ie all i get on the console is the "thread started" message and not the "thread sleep" the msmq call was originally in the same class as the thread above, but i've since move it ot its own class. i have also now moved the call to the startThread onto a button on the main form i can send one message and the click on the button and it starts fine send two messages and the thread wont start. any ideas would be appreciated Andy Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using?

    - Calling scanner fundi's... [Environment] Symbol MC9000k scanner running Windows Mobile 2003. C# .Net (.Net CF) with OpenNetCf 1.2 installed. Latest Symbol SDK driving the scan engine stuff. [Application] I've extracted the barcode scanner handling stuff from one of the Symbol SDK examples, and using their .Net classes, drive the scanning engine in my application. Basically the program has a main screen which allows you to perform differing actions, all of which involved the scanner. Tapping a button launches a new form, which initialises the scanner and asks the user for a type of barcode to scan... There are eight forms in all, each creating their own instance of the scan engine on load and destroying it on closing. Each has an event handler that is unique in handling the data that is scanned. [Problem] Every now and again, at completely random intervals, the scanner will just stop working. Pressing the trigger button doesn't scan anything. If you exit the form you're on and go into another one (reinitialising a new scanner object instance) nothing happens. I've put debug log trace statements everywhere that log the details to a file to make sure that only one scanner object is in existence at anyone time, and that any errors are reported. When the scanner goes wrong, the log file tells me the application was still merrily destroying and creating the scanner object with no exceptions, and all the reader object correctly created. The work around I have is a restart button that quits the program, and relaunches itself. The scanner will now work when going to a dialog. Although it works, but it's not solving the problem. Does anyone have any ideas, or has anyone come across this sort of thing before? Any help in how to debug this, or direction as to what the problem is would be greatly appreciated!

    - German special character and string.Replace() method Hi, I've noticed a problem with the string.Replace() and the StringBuilder.Replace() methods. I try to replace the german special character "ß" (sharp spoken "ss") in order to mask the character with "ß" for showing it in the OpenNETCF's HTMLViewer control. The problem is, that the Replace() method finds the "ß" in each string containing "ss". When calling Replace("ß", "ß") the first "s" of an "ss" sequence is replaced by "ß" resulting in "ßs"! That behaviour is bad, because "ß" isn't the same as "ss". Is there a way to influence this behaviour? Is there another way than to scan the string manually? Btw, other string and StringBuilder methods (like IndexOf()) also treat "ss" as "ß" ... Greetings, Christian Tag: What database format is Pocket Outlook using? Tag: 33339

    - Treeview bug : Select top visible item but itself? Hi all, I am struggling with an annoying problem. It's a little difficult to describe, but I will try as simply as I can. The issue is with a Treeview control, which has a two level structure, in my cases, category and product. This issue is only visible when the tree is expanded so that a vertical scroll bar is displayed, and the topmost visible item is a product. I will try to draw this in text.. (top of treeview) -Category 1 Product 1 Product 2 ------------ (top of visible in screen) Product 3 << Selects this when you expand/contract Category 2 (or 3) Product 4 +Category 2 +Category 3 .. etc ------------ (bottom of visible in screen) Note that Category 1 is exanded (off screen), but Category 2 (on screen), is not. Also note that the Tree.SelectedNode has been set to Nothing in code. Now, the bug happens when you expand Category 2. When you do this, it does expands category 2 correctly, but then SELECTS Product 3! It also does this when you contract Category 2 as well. My theory is that a treeview likes having something selected. When the category is exanded, it seems to re-select the screens topmost visible item. This is strange to me, at the very least I would expect it to select the thing you were expanding/contacting? I set the selection back to nothing so that you can easily re-select the same product. Has anyone else hit this problem? Found a work around? Any and all help appreciated!! Regards, Saul ps. If I have not explained this situation well, please ask for any clarification.

What API should I use to read data from the database on a desktop PC?

You should use the POOM API to access pocket outlook data, since the
underlying storage format is not documented and subject to change. You can
access POOM through a .NETCF wrapper e.g.
