    - Problem with dotfuscator I have a pocket pc graphical app with an extra form, form2, to which I added a menu. I compile the program, which is configured as 'debug'. The program works on ipaq ppc, on emulator, and on desktop. Then I use dotfuscator standard edition for visual studio and now the program works only on emulator and desktop, but not on device, hourglass keeps turning forever. I must emphesise, there is no added code in my program, simply what is a given from the wizard plus an added form as described above, so maybee someone can recreate the setup. I could have attached it to this post, by I don't know if I am supposed to or not. Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38464

    - serialization to relational DB? Hi, I'm working with reflextion a bit and I was wondering, since we have serialization to XML with OpenNetCF component, isn't there some kind of component of third party that could serialiaze an object graph to relational DB? I thought about it for a while and it seems to me that with reflection help this is possible - and it would be killer! dan Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38457

    - #if and define constants in VB.NET Hi, I need to use a lot of define constants for varios settings in my application. If I insert a constant in Project Configuration Properties - Build - Custom constants, this constant is known in all modules. But if I insert #const in any module, then I can use this constant ONLY in this module. Does any eventuality exist to have a lot of constants, which are known in all modules? Some statement (#LINK or #INCLUDE) for special file with constants. Viki Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38447

    - Registry and Wireless settings I have a lot of WindowsCE4.2 devices, all must be setup with a wireless profile, ie. static IP/subnet, wireless SSID/AdHoc. In stead of configuring each device I would like to make a small application to assist me. I have tried looking at the registry before and after manually setting the profile, but still I am unable to clearly identify fx the location of the IP address. I have identified changes in the following keys: LocalMachine\Comm\[adapter]\Parms\TcpIP\EnableDHCP LocalMachine\Software\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters\Interfaces\[adapter]\ActiveSettings LocalMachine\Software\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters\Interfaces\[adapter]\Static#0000 CurrentUser\Comm\WirelessAdapterCache\[adapter] CurrentUser\Comm\EAPOL\Config\[SSID]\Enable8021x The key LocalMachine\Comm\[adapter]\Parms\TcpIp also include a Value "IPAddress" [String], however, it seems to be ignored by Windows Zero Config. I have been looking into this matter much but and about to go nutz as I cannot figure out how its done. Can it be done? Where is the IP stored? After a device reset (warm boot) it persists. Is it stored on the card? Encrypted? I have searched looking at both string and byte patterns. Any comment appriciated. Thanks you.

    - Memory Usage Hi All, I have a C# application that uses an SQL Server CE database and I am a little confused about the memory usage of my application. When I start the application the Control Panel -> Memory display shows that 7MB was consumed, but when I use the Performance Monitor (MSCOREE.STAT) it shows a Byte Allocation of 2 MB. This all came up because I have an h2200 that was showing Control panel memory usage of 2MB, and a h5500 that showed a memory usage of 7MB. I am confused. BTW. My DB is 3.5MB in size. Can anyone explain for me. Thanks, James. Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38423

    - NetworkStream.BeginRead Blocking problem Hi all, I am trying to create CLient-Server based application. Talking of just Client application, I want to read data from the server application. For that I created a socket and a new thread that reads all the time from the server. However, the problem is when I close the socket (from client end), my data reader thread (created above) does not close down. In turn it keeps waiting for some message. After bit of struggle I noted that somehow BeginRead calls back the method after 1 minute. At that time my piece of code exits the thread. I want to close the BeginRead operation as soon as I close the socket. You help will be appreciated. For that purpose I am presenting you with the code that I have managed to write.

    - For Peter Foot Ok, additional to the PPC App installer, I made three modification to the PPC App setup project. 1. add a SQLCE.ini file: [CEAppManager] Version = 2.0 Component = SCE [SCE] Description = SQL Server CE 2.0 CabFiles = sqlce.wce4.armv4.CAB,sqlce.ppc3.arm.CAB,sqlce.wce4.armv4t.CAB,sqlce.wce4.mips16.CAB,sqlce.wce4.mipsii.CAB,sqlce.wce4.mipsii_fp.CAB,sqlce.wce4.mipsiv.CAB,sqlce.wce4.mipsiv_fp.CAB,sqlce.wce4.sh3.CAB,sqlce.wce4.sh4.CAB,sqlce.wce4.x86.CAB,netcf.core.ppc3.arm.cab,sql.ppc3.arm.CAB,sqlce.dev.ppc3.arm.CAB,netcf.all.wce4.armv4.cab,sql.wce4.armv4.CAB,sqlce.dev.wce4.armv4.CAB,netcf.all.wce4.armv4t.cab,sql.wce4.armv4t.CAB,sqlce.dev.wce4.armv4t.CAB 2. Add an invokation to the RunAppManager function as following Dim argSQLCE As String = Path.Combine(Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location), "SQLCE.ini") RunAppManager(argSQLCE) Dim arg As String = Path.Combine(Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location), "Setup.ini") RunAppManager(arg) 3. I add a "WaitForExit()" function after the process.start() function as following. Process.Start( _ String.Format("""{0}""", appManager), _ String.Format("""{0}""", arg)).WaitForExit() Then After I generate the msi file and run it, the PPC App can be installed, but when installing SQL CE it says "There is no device-compatible software to install. " I can send you my code if you don't mind. Thanks. Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38421

    - Using multiple dataadapters does not work in CF??? Very odd behavior. I try to fill two dataadapters on the same connection and I get an exception on the 2nd fill. Code similar to this has never been a problem in my winforms app, so this must be some limitation of CF?

    - Local datastore for visual basic .net aplication on a pda I have this project for developing an drug interaction aplication for a pda under a windows o.s . The aplication is being developed on visual basic .net (using visual studio .net 2003), and I needed to create an local datastore, the problem is that most of the database access controls and etc available on the full .net framework arenÂ´t available for the .net compact framework, so, so much for using an MS access database file, as for SQL, I kinda dislike the ideia of having to install the CE server on the pda just to run a lame database that only uses SELECT and WHERE (=?) queries (the aplication only reads a specific value from a field on the database and compares it to another value from another field). So after all this, here's my questions: Is there any way to use an sql database file as an local datastore without the SQL server running? Just by reading from the file that is? And how about an serialized xml file from the object model, could it do the trick or does it run in to the missing class prob in compact framework? Thanks for reading and for your time, help is most welcome. Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38414

    - NullReferenceException on line that does nothing. Hi, I've got a strange NullReferenceException on this line: System.Data.DataTable oDT = null; I've tried not initializing it, and setting it to something on the next line, but that doesn't change anything. Strangely, it does not throw an exception when I'm running in debug mode (debugging on the device, not the emulator). It does throw when I deploy and run on that same device. Has anyone seen this behavior? Thanks, and have a good day. Tom Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38409

How do you dismiss the form? I've converted the code you provided me with that for VB. I'm using a Me.Close to close my form. The first time the form appears, it stays up as I was hoping it would, not getting hidden behind other forms. But the second and beyond time it is called, its not going away, ever. I can tell that the form in the background is still running as I can touch buttons, at least the part of the buttons I can see behind my 'modal' form, and they work. Any ideas?

    - Detecting Open Forms Is there a way in CF .NET using C# to detect whether or not a form is already open in memory, and if so, using a conditional to show that form rather than having to do something like this: Form1 frm = new Form1(); frm.Show(); since that always creates another instance. I don't want users to have a bunch of the same form open on their PPC at one time, it's just silly and a needless waste of resources. Thanks Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38379

    - Trouble with Multi Threading Hello All, I am in the middle of creating a class that I want to use with Serial IO per the MVP on this forum. I am still having trouble with my design process I think. I created a class that is designed to basically receive messages from the port. It is a CommEvent private void port_DataReceived() { byte[] data = port.Input; RxMESSAGE += Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data,0,data.Length); } this class is created from a WinCE form. there suggestion was to create a seperate thread that receives data. my question(s) in this process is 1)if I have a class that is created from a WinCE form( myThread = new Utility.myThreadClass(); ) with the event port_DataReceived. Will that event raise without locking up my WinCE form? 2) how do I start a thread that will allow this event to be raise and allow me to continue working on my WinCE form? In every other situation I have written a thread that calls one function, once that function was done the thread was done also, in this case I am trying to start a thread the allows an event to fire?

    - irda serial port emulator Hello, I am trying to write a program using .NET CF to interface with a PDA IR port which communicates with an ACTiSYS IR100S Intelligent IR port. This device contains the iRDA protocol stack so that when it is connected to a PC it looks like a standard RS232 port. I have some sample code which allows data to be sent via IrDA on my PDA. This works between 2 PDAs running the same software. If I try to connect to a PC then I would have expected to see some data when running hyperterminal. I do not. Also I have found a terminal emulator for the PDA which allows IrDA connection to the PC and I can send data from PDA to PC/ PC to PDA. Similarly I have tried my sample code talking between 2 PDAs where 1 has the terminal emulator and I don't see any data passed between the 2. The code I have will also discover IrDA devices and this works OK. I have 2 questions: 1. Why do I not see any data when running my sample code on either terminal emulator window? 2. Do you have any .net sample code which I can use to communicate between a PC and a PDA via IrDA? In my final application the remote device will be a "dumb" device which accepts commands via RS232, so I can not expect to be able to add any code to the remote device.

Ca donc c'est juste un test de message </body> <subject>Sujet test1</subject> <sender>Moi meme</sender> </message> --- and the parser: r = new XmlTextReader(path + file.Name); while (r.Read()) { if (r.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element) { if (r.Name == "message") msg.Id = r.GetAttribute("id"); else if (r.Name == "subject") msg.Subject = r.Value; else if (r.Name == "body") msg.Body = r.Value; else if (r.Name == "sender") msg.Sender = r.Value; } } r.Close(); I get the Id attribut id but none of the values...

    - Serialization of arrays in dataset Hi, I have a dataset that I am using to transfer data to a web service from a device. One of the elements in the datatable contained within the dataset is a string array, which is stored fine in the dataset on the device. However, when the dataset is transferred and I try to retrieve the data from the array in the web service, the array is transformed into a string with the value "string.object[]" Now, I know that this is an effect caused by the serialization of the dataset during transport from the device to the web service, so what (if any) is the correct method of transferring arrays in datasets to web services?

    - Threading & Synchronization in CF 2.0 Hi, Has the CF 2.0 more support for inter-thread synchronization ? For example, the absence of Monitor.Wait and Pulse methods in 1.0 are a bit of a pain (OpenNETCF partially solves this). The reason why I am asking is that the documentation in VS 2005 mentions .NET CF as a supported platform for some of these methods. Monitor.Wait Method (Object) ... Target Platforms: <...> .NET Compact Framework But the methods do not seem to be available (Intellisense does not find them). Documentation typo ?

    - CF 1.0 SP2 deployment to Emulator from VS .NET 2003 Hi, I'm new to CF dev and trying to find out if there is a way to make VS.NET 2003 use CF 1.0 SP2 when it deploys the framework to the Pocket PC 2002 Emulator. I believe it is possible to deploy the files "manually", but don't one lose them when turning off or hard resetting the Emulator ?

    - File copy from device to desktop Is there a way to initiate something on a Pocket PC to copy files to a desktop? The users will copy to various laptops and desktops so I would prefer not to have to install a RAPI app on each computer but will if needed.

    - cannot connect to X5 from VS.NET I am able to successfully build my C# app in VS.NET but am having trouble deploying it to my Dell Axim X5. I am running ActiveSynch 3.7.1 and have successfully connected my device to the PC and synchronized. Whenever I select deploy, it asks me for the device type (which I select PocketPC) and I get the following error: Error: Cannot establish a connection. Be sure the device is physically connected to the development computer. According to Asynch, my device is connected. I am able to browse the device using Mobile Explorer, etc. I tried to deploy it to the emulator and that worked fine. Any ideas on what might be wrong would be appreciated.

    - How do I unload a Smartphone app via the Compact Framework Hello all, In order to programmatically uninstall an app via the Compact Framework, one just calls "\Windows\unload.exe", "appname.exe" on the Pocket PC. The Smartphone doesn't include unload.exe or even wceload.exe anywhere on the device. So how does one accomplish this task? Is there some other exe to call that accomplishes the same function?

    - Issue with Icon constructor in CF SP2 Hi All, This seems to be a new bug that has been introduced in CF SP2. I now get a 'NotSupportedException' when using the Icon constructor that takes a Stream. If I do not install SP2 the constructor works fine (using PPC 2003 Phone Ed emulator). Here is the C# code that is used. Stream stream = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("FMRS.Images.icon_first.ico"); Icon icon = new Icon(stream); //this blows up with SP2 imgListReading.Images.Add(icon); As I said, the code works fine without CF SP2 installed. I have checked that the stream is not null. This is the error I get... *** An unhandled exception of type 'System.NotSupportedException' occurred in System.Drawing.dll Additional information: NotSupportedException *** There is no message with the error, nor an inner exception, which is especially nice!

    - Works on one device Hello all, I was wondering if you had any idea about the following. I am writing an application for a PPC that is calling dll functions generated in eVC 4. the target processor is a ARM processor however I have tried both the ARM and ARMV4 process compiles for the dll as suggested in a previous thread. [DllImport(\\Windows\\DllFileName.dll, EntryPoint="ClearCodes")] private static extern int ClearCodes (int codesID); My issue is this function works perfectly on a compaq iPaq 2200 and I get a MissingMethodException on the Dell Axim X5. regards, Jay Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38305

    - Cannot Deploy/Debug With ActiveSync I have a Psion Netbook Pro with an ARM-pxa255 processor and CE.NET 4.2. I have tried both ActiveSync 3.71 and 3.5 (in that order). I have installed the Windows CE Utilities for Visual Studio .NET 2003 and have selected ARM4 as my device CPU. I'm connecting through an RS232 serial connection. In Visual Studio, I have the platform set to Windows CE and the transport is set to TCP. The startup server is ActiveSync. If I open ActiveSync itself, it connects just fine. Visual Studio doesn't want to play along. Any advise? Thanks, csharprox@NOSPAMgmail.com Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38299

    - Change specific treeview node font? Hi all, I would like to change only my "header nodes" font in my treeview. Is this possible? I used the following to try it: trvAppts.Font = New Font(trvAppts.Font.Name, trvAppts.Font.Size, FontStyle.Bold) But that set the whole treeview to Bold. I only want the header ones. Can the compact framework do this? Tag: compact framework for Pocket PC 2003 SE Tag: 38282

Is there a special version of CF for Pocket PC 2003 Second Edition?

no special version of CF. You can use CF1.0 or 2.0 with PPC2003SE.
there *is* a PocketPC2003 SDK available on MSDN that gives you a variety of
emulator images for development with SE using VS.Net 2003.
