    - Can anyone recommend a pocket pc developerforum? I don't intend to cause offence to anyone but my general experience with MS hosted newsgroups is the time it takes to get a response to questions. I'm use to forums where there is a more livelier interaction to threads and I wonder if I might not be better off posting my questions to another forum. I really need a quicker turnround time to questions and the experience I've had in this forum is more or less the same I've had in other MS newsgroups. I might be trying to post questions to a more discerning newsgroup here, where if I go to another forum somewhere else, I can at least share the same crowded bar-room if you get my meaning. Please don't take this as a negative criticism. Despite my experience with .Net in general, I'm new to pocket pc development so there are many things I need to ask and I'm wanting quicker turn round of responses rather than wait a day or more for one-shot quality which is what I'm probably getting here. The busier the newsgroup, the more likely I might get my responses. I hope you can help. Thanks Peter. Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86423

    - order to install EVC 3, 4 & Visual studio .Net I just upgraded my PC, but I am really surprised that now my evc4 debug is really slower than before.

    - Relationship Between OS , SDK and .NET CF Hi, I have a very basic question: What is a relationship between OS and SDK? My understanding is that if I want to access the peripherals or ports I make use of SDK which in turn may use OS. But how this relationship changes in terms of .NET CF? .NET framework sits on CLR which inturn is on OS? Now where does the SDK sits? I have a device which is based on Pocket PC 2002 and has a vendor provided SDK. Now since Pocket PC 2002 supports .NET CF I want to move to .NET CF. Can use the current SDK or a new SDK supporting .NET CF would be required. Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86344

Which eVT is compatible with which OS? Which eVT code can be used in .NET framework? Finally if I have device which has Pocket PC 2002 and has a vendor provided SDK then: 1) Can I develop .NET application for this device? 2) What are tools ,SDK and things on device which I require for .NET application development? 3) Can the exisiting SDK be used? 4) Can I use eVT 4.0 for developing native code?

    - Toshiba e755 PPC 2003 upgrade. Hi All, I bought a Toshiba e755 PPC 2002 in Asia, unfortunately the 2003 upgrade was not available in Asia, I was living in Taiwan and tried to get Toshiba to ship a copy from the USA - I cannot even begin to explain how much time and trouble this caused me - and in the end got nothing (but mad), anyway, knowing I would be moving to the USA I decided to wait - it would be easy to get it here I though, now it seems the upgrade has been discontinued, I have tried calling Toshiba USA many times already since arriving here, the trouble has started again and it's making me mad - people promising to call back and then not doing, etc. This morning I once again spoke to the Toshiba customer support helpdesk, the guy didn't even know an upgrade had been offered!?!?!? I would like to know if anyone would like to help a poor soul who has had some bad treatment from Toshiba - what I am looking for is a copy of the Toshiba e755 (e750 is the same) PPC 2003 upgrade disk, I am a trust worthy character and would pay any expenses incurred - hell, I'll even pay the 50$ that the upgrade cost. hope someone can help. best regards, Roger.

    - Which versions of Visual xx allow CE development Hi all, I'm trying to do some development on one of the Audiovox Thera with PPC2002 on it. I downloaded the SDK for the sierra wireless device built-in to this unit and it references that the examples were built with VB 6.0. Does VB6 allow CE development? I was under the impression that you had to purchase the full blown Visual Studio Enterprise to get CE application development. So with that, I lead to the second question of does anyone know if the eVB development environment might work with the sierra stuff. I tried installing the eVB stuff on my HP zd7500 notebook (Media Center Edition) and it simply bombed out when I hit the test in the Emulator option and rebooted the system. I'm going to try the DEP option to see if I can run it after changing that. Any other suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Ken Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86314

    - Deployment of application. Environment: VS.Net 2003 Enterprise. Latest emulator, sdk for Win Mobile 2003 SE installed. HP iPaq 4700 (same OS). Program: a dead simple Hello World. I can run it on the 2003 emulator. 100% but what could go wrong anyway? Problem: How do I deploy this onto my iPaq? Observation: I've tried looking for a simple hands-on tutorial walkthrough that will tell me exactly, not approximately, what I need to do to install this humble program on my device. I can dind any number of complex explanations. But I don't want complexity at this point. All I want to do is to get a handle on the concepts, the complex can wait until later. Is there a walkthrough that someone knows about that will show me what it is I need to do to get this simple program deployed on my device. I can seemingly produce the .cab files easily enough, but getting it/them into a .msi file and setting up the extraordinarily complicated configuration file is not something I want to spend too much time on - initially. Advice appreciated. Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86289

    - ReadFile (on file) sometimes blocking ? could this be a kernel bug ? The scenario that I observe is the following: Thread A opens a file, gets file handle Thread B calls ReadFile with this file handle, to read some bytes in a buffer When the priority of Thread A is higher that the priority of Thread B ***at the time of the ReadFile call***, ReadFile blocks forever, even if Thread A does nothing (e.g. wait on some event). Apparently the prioritie of Thread A when the file is opened makes no difference. There is nothing in the Microsoft documentation that says that ReadFile must be called in the same thread that created the file handle, so opening a file in a thread and reading in another one should not cause problems. And it does not cause problems, as long as Thread B (which reads) ahd always a priority equal or higher than Thread A (the thread that opened the file) at the time of calling ReadFile. But if the priority of Thread B gets lower than the priority of Thread A (even if Thread A is doing nothing, e.g. wait on an event), then ReadFile blocks forever.... which itself is very strange, since we are reading from a file (e.g. on a Storage Card or in Main Memory). Does anyone have an explanation for this behavior ? Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86272

On PPC (IPAQ, with Wifi(802.11b)) It having setting for proxy server in Connection->Edit my proxy server-> Proxy server -> advance, we see that it have few supporte protocol: Server : port -------------- HTTP 80 WAP 9201 Secure WAP 9203 Socks 1080 -------------- But how about other ? like 8080, 1169,... etc ? I have try to use "trick" to use one of the unused port (for me), like WAP which I change it default port (9201) to the port I'm using (1169 for eg). For IE on PC, we got checkbox "Use the same proxy server for all protocols, and by enable this checkbox, my problems solved (for PC), but since this is not available on PocketPC (until 2003 FE), is there a solution ? registry settings ? by standard API ?

    - SqlCeCommand Error - works on emulator but no on device?? Maybe someone can shed some light on this... When testing the following code on my PPC 2003 emulator it works fine. However, when testing it on a PPC 2003 device, it does not. Specifically, the delete command runs fine, but i get an error on the insert command text line (that is, the error throws before the insert command executes?): cn = new SqlCeConnection(<< connection string >>); cn.Open(); cmd = new SqlCeCommand(); cmd.Connection = cn; cmd.CommandText = "<< delete string >>"; cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); cmd.CommandText = "<< insert string >>"; cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); cn.Close(); In the above example, the command object has class-level scope. Maybe this is the problem? However, i was able to make the following code work on both the emulator and actual device: // Connection Objects cn = new SqlCeConnection(<< connection string >>); cn.Open(); string sql_delete = << Delete string >>; SqlCeCommand sqlCmdDelete = new SqlCeCommand(sql_delete, cn); sqlCmdDelete.CommandType = CommandType.Text; sqlCmdDelete.ExecuteNonQuery(); string sql_insert = << Insert String >> SqlCeCommand sqlCmdInsert = new SqlCeCommand(sql_insert, cn); sqlCmdInsert.CommandType = CommandType.Text; sqlCmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery(); cn.Close(); If anyone can explain why the first code snippet works on the emulator and not on teh deive, i would be appreciative. And, do command objects need to be explicitly destroyed? Thanks. Tag: .NET CF Tag: 86258
