    - zlib OpennetCF question Hello I'm using this code: Dim inf As Stream = New System.IO.FileStream("\My Documents\test.txt", FileMode.Open) Dim outf As Stream = File.Create("\My Documents\test.zip") zlibCE.Deflate(inf, outf, 5) inf.Close() outf.Close() That is working. But I have now no file, but a String which I want to compress. So I tried this: Dim c As String = "TestingTestingTesting" Dim tocompress() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetBytes(c) Dim inf As Stream = New MemoryStream() inf.Write(tocompress, 0, tocompress.Length) Dim outf As Stream = File.Create("\My Documents\test.jj") zlibCE.Deflate(inf, outf, 5) inf.Close() outf.Close() So I convert to String to a Byte(), then I create a new MemoryStream, then I write the Byte to to MemoryStream. After that I am Deflating normally... But its not working? What's Wrong? Thanks Sven Tag: WM6 Tag: 124637

    - GXDisplayProperties question Since GAPI is no longer supported by WM6 I am converting everything to DirectDraw. I have in my original program: GXDisplayProperties g_gxdp; if (g_gxdp.ffFormat | kfDirect565) { //blah blah } else if (g_gxdp.ffFormat | kfDirect555) { //blah blah } I wish to know what is the equivalent of g_gxdp.ffFormat? I am using a DD surface like so: LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE g_pDDSPrimary; // DirectDraw primary surface DDSURFACEDESC ddsd; g_pDDSPrimary->Lock(0,&ddsd,8,0); I think it may be ddsd.ddpfPixelFormat or someting but when I step through and compare g_gxdp.ffFormat to values in ddsd.ddpfPixelFormat I cant find any obvious values that are are 'identical'. Thanks for any help. Harry Tag: WM6 Tag: 124619

    - SHNotificationAdd / SHNotificationRemove Hi, I'm having problems using SHNotificationAdd & SHNotificationRemove below. Can someone tell answer the following questions? 1. If I call ShowNotification and RemoveNotification, will I have memory leaks? SHNotificationAdd is passed szMessage, which is local variable and will be destroyed at end of function. So, do I have to save the string buffer or does SHNotificationAdd COPY this to some internal buffer? If not, I must free this buffer myself after the call to SHNotioficationRemove ? 2. The icon is displayed in title bar. I read that it is a bitmask, so my icon is only black on transparent background. But still this icon is shown as black in title bar, and not in the color that is set by theme for iconbar. How can I make it use theme colors? Lisa #define NOTIFICATION_ID 1 BOOL RemoveNotification() { if (!SUCCEEDED(SHNotificationRemove(&CLSID_SHNAPI_OemNotif3, NOTIFICATION_ID))) { OutputDebugString(_T("ERROR: SHNotificationRemove")); return FALSE; } return TRUE; } BOOL ShowNotification(HINSTANCE hInstance, UINT nStringID) { TCHAR szMessage[MAX_LOADSTRING]; if (0 == LoadString(hInstance, nStringID, szMessage, sizeof(szMsg)/sizeof(szMsg[0]))) { return FALSE; } SHNOTIFICATIONDATA sn = {0}; sn.cbStruct = sizeof(sn); sn.dwID = NOTIFICATION_ID; sn.npPriority = SHNP_INFORM; sn.csDuration = 5; sn.hicon = LoadIcon(hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON)); sn.grfFlags = SHNF_FORCEMESSAGE; sn.clsid = CLSID_SHNAPI_OemNotif3; sn.pszTitle = _T("Notofication"); sn.pszHTML = szMessage; if (SUCCEEDED(SHNotificationAdd(&sn))) { return FALSE; } return TRUE; } Tag: WM6 Tag: 124616

    - When/What to expect Connection Manager Status updates If I am application using the Connection Manager framework in Windows Mobile 6 to establish a data connection, what can I expect for the following scenarios... ...when my network loses service....does the Connection Manager just return CONNMGR_STATUS_WAITINGFORPATH? Is the app just supposed to wait until it receives CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED? ...when a voice phone call is initiated during an active data connection on a non suspend-resume capable connection (i.e. CDMA)....does the Connection Manager just return CONNMGR_STATUS_DISCONNECTED? or CONNMGR_STATUS_WAITINGFORPHONE? same as above, does the app need to just wait for CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED? ...when a voice phone call is initiated during an active data connection on a suspend-resume capable connection, but the application is not suspend-resume aware?....I believe this is CONNMGR_STATUS_DISCONNECT. If this is all listed in the Windows Mobile 6 Documentation, and I'm missing the obvious, I apologize. I'm a new developer to this framework. Thanks, Joe Tag: WM6 Tag: 124606

    - WZCQueryInterface not returning results for INTF_PREFLIST On newer WM5 devices and all WM6 devices (that I could tell), calling: DWORD dwStatus = WZCQueryInterface(NULL, INTF_PREFLIST, &Intf, &dwOutFlags); returns an ERROR_SUCCESS but the dwOutFlags are always 0 and no data is returned. Setting the preferred list seems to always succeed but it has the effect of clobbering all of the profiles since you can't get the original list prior. Is there a solution to this? It's a big problem that doesn't allow for a good user experience. Many thanks, Charlie Tag: WM6 Tag: 124587

    - How to determine if volume window is active? Can anyone help me out with this problem? I need a way to detect if the Volume window is active in a native C++ app on a PPC, either WM5 or WM6. Some devices activate the volume window by pressing an up or down key on the device. Other devices don't have a key assigned to volume but you activate the Volume window by tapping on the speaker icon in the task bar. I have a timer going so every interval I check the current foreground window. If it's not my app, I want to do one thing if it's the volume window, something else if it's anything else. Problem is I don't know how to distinguish the volume window from any other window. Can anyone help? Some of the things I've tried so far: Checked window text of the foreground window: it's empty (""), I was expecting/hoping for "Volume" Checked if foreground window is same as task bar. Task bar hwnd is determined by ::FindWindow(L"HHTaskBar", NULL): Foreground window is NOT the task bar Checked if foreground window is a child of task bar hwnd: Foreground window is NOT a child of the task bar (::IsChild(hWndTaskBar, hWndForeground) is FALSE) Is this a good way to check or should I use a different method to determine if the volume window is active? Any ideas? Thanks, J144 Tag: WM6 Tag: 124582

    - VS2005 Remote Tools Stopped Working Recently my VS2005 remote tools stopped working -- Remote Registry Editor, Remote Process Viewer, VS2005's VC++ deploy & remote debug, and so on. When these tools try to connect to the device, the connection attempt eventually just times out. If I open the Connectivity Manager Configuration window and try to test the connection, I get the message "The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available". Oddly, the Transport and Startup Server config buttons are both clickable, but don't open any dialogs. I can't be certain, but all of this seems to have started about the same time that I installed MS Project 2007, and then followed up with some Windows and Office updates. Has anyone had anything similar to this happen to them? Incidentally, I also have EVC4 installed; the two have been peacefully coexisting for over a year now. But now EVC4's remote tools have also stopped working, for what it's worth. Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated! Tag: WM6 Tag: 124579

    - VS2005 DataSet problem Hi. I am building a Pocket PC app to test various things. In VS2005, I have a DataSet and in Server Explorer I have opened a Data Connection to a database (.sdf) on the device. Then I drop tables on the DataSet. This works OK for all tables except one, where I get a message: Failed to merge object(s). An item with the same key has already been added. This particular table has a primary key consisting of 3 short integers. As far as I can see, there is nothing wrong with this table as such. I can drop all the other tables onto the DataSet designer, only this one cannot coexist with any of the other ones. I may not be an advanced developer when it comes to working with the Compact Framework, but I am not a beginner either. Regards, Gudni Tag: WM6 Tag: 124576

    - Debugging Windows Mobile process in Visual Studio Hi, I installed Visual Studio 2005 and I want to run an ARM executable on Windows Mobile emulator, attach debugger to the process, set breakpoint at an API function and when the breakpoint is hit, save memory dump. I'm familiar with OllyDbg and I don't understand why simple things make so much trouble in VS. I start the process in emulator and attach debugger to it, then I can view memory at given address, but I can't dump a block of memory to a file since Save Dump As command in Debug menu is disabled. I can't set breakpoints on API functions either. I choose Breakpoint at Function and enter function name (such as CreateFile), but it says 'The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No executable code is currently loaded at this location'. I read somewhere that I first need to load symbols for modules loaded by the process. I found some pdb files in Visual Studio directory, but I can't figure out how they match modules loaded by the process (for example, which pdb file should be loaded for coredll.dll). I wish MSDN was more helpful, now I hope I'll get an answer here. bl4 Tag: WM6 Tag: 124562

    - How to debug ActiveSync service providers? I've been trying debugging the StockPor example under Visudio Studio 2005, but it seems hard, if not impossible. First of all, I can't find a proper .exe module to load the DLLs (both desktop and device). Secondly, the DLL on the device side is always locked once the emulator is connected. The StockPor MSDN article did not mention how to debug it, but given the difficulty I experienced, I figure there has to be another article discussing how to debug ActiveSync service providers.

Does eVC4 have an option to import all source files below a certain directory? And, if possible, preserve the directory structure from disk in the solution explorer (for better orientation)?

    - Custom notification event Hi, Under Start > Settings > Personal tab > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications tab, you have list of event to which you can attach notifications. I have a 3rd party application that inserts its own events into this list. Aside from registry settings, there's a DLL I think that actually registers this Event. If I'm correct, an event is identified by a GUID. For example, I have an application where pressing a button, fires a notification. So under Sounds & Settings, I want to add an event "MyApp: Button Click". What if I want to attach an event to "Start" menu, so that when it is clicked, device vibrates? (Just as an example). I assume I need to write a DLL. Which functions must be exposed? Is this documented anywhere? Lisa Tag: WM6 Tag: 124527

    - RAPI can't open CEDB volume with a long path or name I think there is an issue with the DMProcessConfigXML() when trying to allow RAPI access to a CEDB volume. I've tried the following scenarios in order to allow RAPI to open the volume: 1) PASS: "\Program Files\Test1.cdb" 2) FAIL: "\Program Files\This Is A Long Test2.cdb" 3) PASS: "\PROGRA~1\\Test3.cdb" 4) FAIL: "\Program Files\My Program\Test4.cdb" 5) FAIL: "\Program Files\MYPROG~1\Test5.cdb" 6) FAIL: "\Program Files\My Program\This is a long Test6.cdb" 7) PASS: "\Program Files\MYPROG\Test7.cdb" I'm at my wits end in trying to determine why RAPI won't open a volume with a long path name. I'm just going to have to 'hope' the my users don't change the install path when the load my application :-( I've have the source code to the two test apps if anyone is interested. MakeDBVol is the Windows Mobile app TestRAPI is the desktop app Both are VS2005 projects. Tag: WM6 Tag: 124526

    - GPS NMEA I need a way to enable the GPRMC NMEA sentence on a mobile 6 device. I am using the gpsapi.dll to open and close the device. But by default the GPRMC sentence is disabled on the unit I am using. There is another app already installed on the device that lets me switch it on and off. But I need to do this within my app. Any suggestions? Tag: WM6 Tag: 124525

    - RNDIS USB Hi. I want to connect a Pocket PC to a Desktop via USB. In fact, this works OK on my machines with Microsoft Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP2. But I need to connect to other Operating Systems, e.g. Windows Server 2003 and possibly others. It seems to me that I need to install some USB Active Sync RNDIS drivers present in XP but not included in those older systems. What do I need? Could you please point me to a Microsoft site from where I can download the necessary software. Regards, Gudni Tag: WM6 Tag: 124516

    - GAPI to Direct3D question I need to get the start address of the display memory using Direct3DMobile. Before I was using GAPI so I simply used: BYTE *pVideoMemory = (BYTE*)GxBeginDraw(); Then using this pVideoMemory pointer I could manipulate the screen. How is this done using Direct3D. I was led to believe that BeginScene() was the equivalent to GxBeginDraw() but I am having difficulties understanding it all and finding good tutorials. Thanks in advance for any help you can provid.

    - TyTN II (Kaiser) and DDSCL_FULLSCREEN When using the Kaiser with Direct Draw it turn's off the screen and you can't see anything. You can write directly to the screen buffer using raw address and there is still nothing there, If you use DDSCL_NORMAL it work's, but does not behave the way i want. Any Suggestions. Is this a bug in TyTN II's Rom. Ps. This code works on everything else inluding the emulator. Tag: WM6 Tag: 124509

    - How to reset GPS hardware with GPSID calls GPSID .Net calls contained in an app written in C# have worked consistently on several hand-held devices containing various GPS chips. The GPSOpenDevice call failed yesterday on one of the units, returning a null value handle. Only a chance low-battery reset of the unit resulted in the app working once more. Is there a way to programmatically evoke a reset on the chips, possibly using IOCTL_SERVICE_REFRESH? It occurs to me that if GPSID can't open the device handle, communication with it may not be possible. Thanks. Tag: WM6 Tag: 124493

    - Windows Media Player 10 Mobile streamed input? I need to process audio content before playing it with WMP Mobile -- is there any way to do this on the device (i.e., playing from an input stream instead of file/URL)? Input filters aren't available with WMP mobile, so my options seem to be: -- playing processed buffers as separate files passed to player.openPlayer (audio gaps) -- playing buffers as separate files in a dynamically growing playlist (smaller audio gaps) -- modifying an open source player & add more support hassle Is it possible to write to the end of a file the player is playing & have it pick up the additional content (assuming it doesn't pull in the entire file upon playback start and/or doesn't lock the file)? Sort of a pipe file approach... Any way to trick the player into thinking my file URL is a network URL & use the built-in stream handling capabilities? Did I miss something in the API? Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance, Tom Tag: WM6 Tag: 124492

I am using Dell 51v has Windows Mobile 5 installed.
Can I replace with Windows Mobile 6 and how?

Only if Dell releases a WM6 image for it. Since they got out of the mobile
device business and likely shot all of the engineers that did the work, it's
highly unlikely that it will ever happen.
