    - code crashes emulator Hi, I am making an async web service call and a progress bar that just loops until the call is complete. Before I make the call I set a bool var to false I the invoke the progress bar and while this var is false the bar will continue to loop. When the call completes this var is set to true and the progress bar is stopped and hidden. The probelm is that sometime it crashes the emulator, however it has not yet crashed an actual pocket pc device. As I am dealing with more than one thread I am using the Invoke methods. The key code is included below: private void btnDownloadSchedule_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { this.btnDownloadSchedule.Enabled = false; this.ShowProgressBar(); this.SetGotScheduleToFalse(); this.wsSchedule = new Heat.IntelligentScheduler.Pda.App.wsHeatSchedule.Schedule(); this.wsSchedule.BeginGetSchedule(this.mScheduling.EngineerId, this.GetDate().ToShortDateString(), wsHeatSchedule.JobPriority.All, new AsyncCallback(ScheduleCallback), null); } private void ScheduleCallback(IAsyncResult iarSchedule) { try { this.wsSchedule.EndGetSchedule(iarSchedule, out this.xnHigh, out this.xnAM, out this.xnPM); this.mScheduling.AddScheduleData(this.xnHigh, JobPriority.All, this.GetDate()); this.wsSchedule.Abort(); this.pbStatus.Invoke(new EventHandler(this.SetProgressMax)); this.SetGotScheduleToTrue(); this.HideProgressBar(); this.btnDownloadSchedule.Enabled = true; } catch(Exception ex) { MessageBoxes.ErrorMessageBox(ex.ToString(), "Here 2"); /*if(MessageBoxes.QuestionMessageBox("There ws a problem fulfilling your last request, would you like to try again?", "Communication Failure : " + ex.ToString()) == DialogResult.Yes) { //this.GetSchedule(DateTime.Parse(this.cboYear.SelectedValue.ToString() + "/" + this.cboMonth.SelectedValue.ToString() + "/" + this.cboDay.SelectedValue.ToString())); }*/ } } private DateTime GetDate() { return DateTime.Parse(this.cboYear.SelectedValue.ToString() + "/" + this.cboMonth.SelectedValue.ToString() + "/" + this.cboDay.SelectedValue.ToString()); } public void UpdateProgressBar(object sender, EventArgs e) { while(!this.bolGotSchedule) { if(this.pbStatus.Value == this.pbStatus.Maximum) { this.pbStatus.Value = this.pbStatus.Minimum; } this.pbStatus.Value += 5; Application.DoEvents(); } } public void SetProgressMax(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.pbStatus.Value = this.pbStatus.Maximum; Application.DoEvents(); } public void ShowProgressBar() { this.pbStatus.Invoke(new EventHandler(ShowProgressBar)); } public void ShowProgressBar(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.pbStatus.Visible = true; } public void HideProgressBar() { this.pbStatus.Invoke(new EventHandler(HideProgressBar)); } public void HideProgressBar(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.pbStatus.Visible = false; } public void SetGotScheduleToTrue() { this.Invoke(new EventHandler(SetGotScheduleToTrue)); } public void SetGotScheduleToTrue(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.bolGotSchedule = true; } public void SetGotScheduleToFalse() { this.Invoke(new EventHandler(SetGotScheduleToFalse)); } Although it has not crashed any devices, the app is still in development and has not run that much on real devices. At the moment I think it is a glitch with the emulator, but I would appreciate any feedback on the code. Mark Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30961

    - Why use Prepare() if this MS BUG exists ? Hi there, I recently came across a SQL CE BUG, which is documented by Microsoft http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;824462 The Resolution of this requires that I call the Dispose method for the SqlCeCommand instances used with the SqlCeDataAdapter. If I use this resolution my code looks like the following: SqlCeCommand cmd = null; protected SqlCeCommand GetMyCommand() { if (cmd == null) { cmd = new SqlCeCommand(); cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Table"; cmd.Connection = mySQLConnection; try { cmd.Connection.Open(); cmd.Prepare(); } Catch {...} finally { cmd.Connection.Close(); } } return cmd; } mySqlAdapter.SelectCommand = GetMyCommand(); try { mySqlAdapter.Fill(...) } catch {...} finally { if (sqlAdapter.SelectCommand != null) sqlAdapter.SelectCommand.Dispose(); } Here's my question..... If I need to Dispose of the cmd after I use it, then if I use it again I need to re-initialise it, which means I need to create the cmd each time as follows: protected SqlCeCommand GetMyCommand() { SqlCeCommand cmd = new SqlCeCommand() cmd = new SqlCeCommand(); cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Table"; cmd.Connection = mySQLConnection; ...... } Does this mean that there is no point in calling Prepare(), as I thought the point of Prepare() was you call it once to compile the cmd once. Any insight is much appreciated. Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30959

    - Rijndael AES encryption Hi, Anyone have any suggestions for implementing Rijndael AES encryption in the CF? System.Security.Cryptography.Rijndael is not supported nor is AES available in the CE crypto library. It has to be AES since it needs to work with an existing system. It also has to support CipherMode.ECB The code I use on the deskop is below. Thanks, Dave Public Function EncryptString(ByRef inStr As String, ByVal HashString As String) Dim RijndaelObj As New RijndaelManaged() Dim RijndaelEncObj As ICryptoTransform, MD5Obj As New MD5CryptoServiceProvider() Dim HashedString As Byte(), EncryptedData As Byte(), DecryptedData As Byte() Dim StringToHash As Byte() = New ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(HashString) Dim DataToEncrypt As Byte() = New ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(inStr) RijndaelObj.BlockSize = 128 RijndaelObj.KeySize = 128 RijndaelObj.Mode = CipherMode.ECB RijndaelObj.Padding = PaddingMode.Zeros RijndaelObj.Key = MD5Obj.ComputeHash(StringToHash) RijndaelEncObj = RijndaelObj.CreateEncryptor() EncryptedData = RijndaelEncObj.TransformFinalBlock(DataToEncrypt, 0, DataToEncrypt.Length) If EncryptedData.Length > 0 Then EncryptString = Convert.ToBase64String(EncryptedData) End Function Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30954

    - Deploy - nonCAB file via MSI I have my MSI file created and working properly. It installs My App, SQL Client, and SQLCE Server programs on the PocketPC. The issues I'm running into is - how do I distribute the database that I have created (.sdf file) on to the users Pocket PC. I use this in My App. Calling a pre-populated database. I would like to send it to the My Documents Directory of the PocketPC - but the path it gets to the PocketPC is not really important. What is more important - is that I just get it on to the PocketPC - with very little user intervention (ie- if it could be part of the MSI setup wizard - that is what I'm shooting for). thanks for any advice.

How can i hide this from the user... Idealy there would be a form property to not show in the task bar but that does not seem to be available in the CompactFramework.

    - CAB dependencies (maybe OpenNETCF specific) I just upgraded to v1.1 of the OpenNETCF framework and now the CAB files for my project seem to have a dependency for the wrong platform in them. What happens is when I run the cab file to install my application, I get a warning telling me that OpenNETCF.SDF.ppc3.ARMV4.cab is required. The trouble is, I'm running on Pocket PC 2003 - so I think it should be requiring OpenNETCF.SDF.wce4.ARMV4.cab. Can anyone shed any light on this, or possibly explain how CAB files get their dependencies built into them - I mean how does it even know that I need OpenNETCF at all? Thanks, Richard.

    - surviving a cold reboot... [Environment] I'm developing an application for a Symbol MC9000-k, running Windows Mobile 2003, using c# and VS.Net 2003. I've also used OpenNetCF for some development, and have a PC app that uses ActiveSync to down/upload data to/from the scanner. [Question] It's quite simple, the client will have no GPO rights (or clue) on how to reinstall my application onto one of these scanners. If the battery runs dry (and so does the backup), or the user has to do a cold-reboot, the applicatin folder, and all the libraries that were deployed disappear. How can I get my .Net CF app back onto the scanner next time it is docked? I'm assuming that if I install the app into non-volatile memory, it still won't work as all the libraries it uses won't be registered etc. Is there a way to (for example) take a snapshot of the scanner build as I like it, and every download that is performed from the PC checks the build integrity and copies across a new partition (or updates the current partition) so that the user can easily carry on using the application?

    - Parse event for databound controls in CF Hi all, I have a textbox bound to a nullable field in a DataTable, and capture the parse event in a fairly standard way to allow for null values: private void newBinding_Parse(object sender, ConvertEventArgs e) { if (e.Value.ToString() == string.Empty) { e.Value = DBNull.Value; } } This appears to work fine for standard windows forms but in the compact framework, the original value of the field keeps appearing everytime the user attempts to set the textbox to an empty string. I know the event handler is definitely being called (from step through debugging) and the event argument value is being set to DBNull but somewhere between that and setting the actual value on the bound DataTable, it reverts back to the original value.

    - Beginner Connecting Two PPc's question - Please Help Me I have multiple ppc's connected via wifi to a lan.I also have regular PC's on the same network, but these are connected with cables. This network is completely cut off from outside sources. The regular PC's have static IP addresses while the PPC's are dynamic. I want to write a small program that will allow the ppc's to see a list of ppc's currently connected, and then to click on one of them and to browse and transfer files off each other from a set "shared" folder. But I want it to work like this: When a ppc connects, it is to send its new IP address to "server pc" that keeps track of the current IP addresses the PPC's have. It will then send the current IP addresses of the other connected PPC's to the unit, which will then when it attempts to click on a particular unit on his screen will set up a Direct Connection thr the LAN, bypassing the "server pc". All I want the "server pc" to be used for is just to keep track and send out the current IPs. You could say that I want to sort of model this after Iâ??M programs. Can you please tell me how would i go about this, I am pretty much a newbie regarding programing, so if you could please explain to me all of the steps required clearly.

Any idea what the problem is about ? Or if its better to implement something else ? If it's helpful I can always post some code... Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30802

    - ContextMenu and OnMouseDown in custom control Hi, I am stuck with the following problem: I created my very own ListView type of control for the Pocket PC. I did override OnMouseDown in order to select the tapped item. Basically this works. However, as soon as a ContextMenu is attached to my control the OnMouseDown is no longer fired when tapped, but only when the stylus is removed (i.e. when I would expect OnMouseUp to be fired). Even worse, it is not fired at all when the stylus is held down and the ContextMenu actually pops up. This behaviour leads to the problem, that I do not have a chance to actually select the item that is underneath the popped up ContextMenu. I also tried to select the item in the Popup event of the ContextMenu, but Control.MousePosition does not return the position actually tapped (it returns the last position that was tapped). Thus, I have no chance to really determine where the user tapped on the display. Any ideas? Andreas Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30800

    - Fix Row height in a Datagrid Hi everybody, I've a little question : is it possible to fix the row height in a datagrid ? When my app is running, if I "click" between 2 rows and move the pointer, it modifies the height of the row and I would prefer to keep this fixed. Is it possible and how ? I can't find any property for that. Thanks, Thomas. Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30794

    - XML Encrypting/ Compression Hello, We are developing a CF application that uses a web service to return xml. Does anyone know of a tool that can compress, encrypt and encode the xml so that it can be sent via a web service, and then decompressed, decrypted and decoded at the client app? There seem to be plenty of components that either compress, encrypt, or encode but not one that does all three. Thanks in advance, Simon Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30793

    - MissingMethodException w/ SqlConnection Hey, I'm getting a MissingMethodException when I call Open() on a SqlConnection -- but only on my WindowsCE device. The program runs fine in the pocketPC emulator and the same code also works fine on the PC. So -- how do I ensure that the System.Data.SqlClient library is being copied on the device correctly? I set the reference to copy locally and I can see it there... ideas? - Zack P.S. One thing worries me and is a half-related question: I can only deploy my project to the Windows CE device if I tell VisualStudio to deploy to a PocketPC device. If I specify the WindowsCE device the deploy halts when trying to send the first file. Why does VS only want to deploy my program as a PPC? And why does the WindowsCE device accept the PPC version? thoughts? Tag: setup a WinCE 4.2 device Tag: 30790

Hi all.

I'm working on a WinCe 4.2 device that has the Fw 1.0 SP1 by default.

This device at startup can take all the files on a flash card and copy and
overwrite them to the RAM disk.

I done a folder on the flash with my apps in it and this is ok.
I'd like to "install" the Fw SP2 in this way.

Someone can tell me if it is possible, what are the files to copy and so on?

Or if there is another way, i.e. let the user double click the fw .cab file
but without all the confirmation about overvriting the existing version or
something.

Thanks
