    - PPC Communications Hi all, I have recently started to code in ".NET Compact Framework" with C# for PocketPC's. And I have some questions to you, Thanks in advance for your answers! 1- What is the best communication way between a Server and a PocketPC in different cities? Especially for an easy and reliable way (GPRS, SMS, Modem etc.) for Web Services and file transfers. 2- Which system can I use for a file transfer between a PC and a PocketPC by the side? ( "OpenNETcf" functions (DeviceToDesktop DesktopToDevice) etc. ? ) 3- VS.NET 2003 and Compact Framework 1.0 (with Service Pack). Can I setup CF 2.0 on this system? Do I have to setup Whidbey for CF 2.0? Thanks a lot for your interest. Tag: ActiveSync 4.0 Developers Preview ActiveSync API Question Tag: 101291

    - WM5 Messaging fails to see attachments added through IMessage::CreateAttach Hi everyone, I am porting an email application from Windows Mobile 2002/2003 onto Windows Mobile 2005. I have code for adding emails (possibly with attachments) to the device email database. These messages are then viewed using the native Messaging application. With the WM5 I am facing the following problem: attachments added to the email can not be opened/viewed. When you view the email list in the Inbox, you can see different icons for all email that have attachments. When you open such a message, the attachment is nowhere to be found. There is no link, menu entry, icon or anything that could be used to open that attachment. In the code, I use the exact same IMessage::CreateAttach that used to work on the older platforms. It doesn't work. I have created a utility program that lists the attachment table from the emails. This works perfectly, meaning that the code finds the right attachments from the email. I have created code that lists the attachment tables from the emails, and further reads the attachments from the email and copies them into the file system. This also works: the attachment files can be found and opened through the File Manager. So it seems that the attachment are there alright, but the Messaging application has a problem finding/reading them. Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? What first comes to mind is that the first two parameters in IMessage::CreateAttach (which should be ignored based on the documentation) need to be used in some way. Any help is highly appreciated.

    - Handango & a new developer product: PTDev, a blitter/sprite/sound library Hi all, Anyone selling stuff on Handango may wish to check that sensible searches still find your product - they've changed the rules regarding categories etc. in such a way that many items no longer appear in a search. As far as I know they never informed anyone of these changes by E-mail - great client support or what ??? On the second topic, the first beta release of our development library "PTDev" is due on the 17th - expect further news on this shortly. A quick demo program created with PTDev will soon be released via the microsoft.public.pocketpc.binaries newsgroup.

    - Development tools questions I have been developing databases, video, audio apps using Borland Delphi. Unfortunately there are very few tools to use for pocket pc. Which development tools have a similar interface and structure to Delphi. egg dropping components onto a form, similar syntax. Are there any trials out there to see if my brain can handle the change. Will apps run on smartphone and pocket pc unchanged? What if any are the restrictions between a smartphone and a pocket pc. Do you write an app and simply compile for 2003 / 2005 ?

    - LSP on WINCE 4.2 (extremly painful) Hi All... I have asked this question on CE Live Chat, and been told that the only LSP guy @ MSFT is in vacation... so Igor I hope you had lots of fun and enjoyed your time:) Hopefully with a fresh mind after a good vacation you'll be able to help us here...:) Well of course if anyone else can help it would be an excellent news as well...:) Make the story short, we've been able to run the LSP on WinCE 5.0 (CEPC) successfully, thanks to your weblog.... However it has become a painful (Verrrry) process installing our LSP on an actual CE 4.2 device (HP iPaq h6320)... if I had a choice I would drop 4.2 entirely and continue with 5.0 but unfortunately there is no 5.0 in the market yet. let's first ask the generic question 1. In MSFT docs, it says that Ws2.dll decides which LSP chain to use. so how on earth it does this decision making when multiple copy of LSP exist. E.g. I have (MYLSP/SSLLSP/TCP & SSLLSP/TCP & TCP) so how do I tell WS2.dll to choose Mine vs. others) here is the problem on our side 1. in CE 4.2 we have followed every step you suggested in your web but amazingly enough we had nothing than problem.... we have even built an OS image of 4.2 for PC and carefully selected the communication packages but yet nothing... here is what we tried and what we got A. on OS we chose One TCP & UDP without SSLLSP and we make sure that MYLSP is the first one and only one to load over TCP and UDP. So we have 4 pairs (MYLSP/TCP, MYLSP/UDP and TCP and UDP). When browser starts it gives "Can't find DNS server)... we made sure no instance of internet explorer will be running before our LSP installation B. on OS we chose One TCP & UDP with SSLLSP. before we install our LSP we got a printout of the chain. Interestingly enough there are 6 pairs (TCP, UDP, SSLSP/TCP, SSLLSP/UDP and again SSLSP/TCP and SSLSP/UDP). And yes we only chose the IPv4 no IPv6. so Why is there a 2nd copy with SSLLSP???? Now after we installed our LSP we have all the pairs but yet when all IE opens up we still get the same "DNS" can't find thing. Almost similar issues on the actual device. here is the link which we followed how to install MYLSP on CE 4.2 http://blogs.msdn.com/cenet/archive/2005/02/09/370018.aspx I would greatly & kindly appreciate any feedback.. advise... assistant...

    - Wifi&GPRS&Bluetooth in PPC2003 Hi all, In PPC2003, I found one funny problem that only one wireless device can be active among Wifi, GPRS, and Bluetooth. When I make a connection to GPRS, Wifi device is shut down. In our application, we need both GPRS and Wifi active at the same time. I did try to use IOCTL_NDIS_REBIND_ADAPTER to activate the Wifi adapter again but it does not work. Can anybody tell me how to either preventing an adapter from being unbound or re-activate the adapter again after it is unbound?

    - asynchronous web method failing -> System.Exception I am creating a pocket pc 2003 application that consumes asychronous web services. When the program begins, it invokes a series of these web services. Each WS is called after the last one completes. The first two methods are invoked successfully. The third method fails with a SoapException: "Server unable to process request. Exception of type System.Exception was thrown" It does not seem to make a difference which method is invoked, this exception is always raised. I have tested on the emulator and on a device with the same results. I have tested the web methods in their synchronous form and they work fine. I have ensured that the web reference to the web services is up to date. Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this?

    - Unable to Deploy and Application from Visual Studio I am deploying to an HP HX4700 device. The OS Version is CE 4.21. I can deploy for debug and the code functions correctly. When I copy the CAB files to the device and try to launch the CAB from the device then I get a message box telling me that the application was not installed and to run setup again.

    - EVB3 debugging doesn't start on PocketPC2002 emulator Hi , all I've been using EVB3 with Pocket PC 2000 SDK on a PC running Windows 2000 Pro without problems. Now I have to move my development environment to a new PC running Windows XP Pro and I decided to use Pocket PC 2002 from this point on (the target handheld devices are already Pocket PC 2002 spec, so there should be no problems), so I installed EVT3 with Pocket PC 2002 SDK. Now I'm trying to run some test apps. Emulator runs fine, but debugging never starts. Also remote file viewer and remote registry editor can't establish connection to the emulator. I didn't change any of the default configuration properties for emulation. Isn't it supposed to run with default parameters set by the installation ? Could it be a compatibility problem between EVT3/PPC2002 and Windows XP ? Any help on this would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

    - Start Menu side-effects on serial communication Hello, I'm facing a strange behaviour that seems to be related to Start Menu scroll-down / scroll-up. Here's the context : my application uses a CompactFlash to serial adapter (CF-232). It opens the serial comm. port (CreateFile, config set to 9600bps, no flow control), then alternatively sends frames (WriteFile) on random length (10 to 250 bytes) and waits for a response (ReadFile with total timeout set to 1000ms and interval timeout to 100ms). On the other end of the RS-232 wire, a simple test box echoes the bytes received. When the echo is received correctly, my application displays a short message to say OK. The application is written in C++ (eVC4, MFC shared, ARMv4 / PocketPC2003 target) and runs on various PDAs. Here's the fact : when I let the application run alone, it runs OK for hours on every PDA. Now when I click the Windows logo in the title bar (Start Menu scrolls down), and click again (Start menu disappears), click again and again say 5 to 10 times, the application hangs for a few seconds, and reports a serial timeout error. After some investigation, I have four certitudes : - the WriteFile has runned OK (remove device has seen the whole frame) - the ReadFile has missed so bytes (we were waiting for say 100 bytes, and we have received only 30 or 40) - the ReadFile has not taken in account the interval timeout (the application hangs until total timeout is reached, whatever the interval is) - this behaviour happens only when I "play" with the Start menu, "playing" with SID or with hardware buttons has no incidence on the application (it runs perfectly in the background, while user is working on Calendar or Contacts or whatever). I also have performed some tries in my code without success : - running the communication in a background thread doesn't change a think - changing thread priority as no effect at all - running the application "quiet" (no display at all, only a blank window) is not better. The problem appears really easily on HP iPAQ hx2110 (even a 20-byte frame is enough to freez the PDA), and has been confirmed on a few others iPAQ and on an ASUS but with longer frames (ASUS doesn't freeze with less than 120 bytes). So I'm totally stuck, removing the Start Menu (SHFullScreen) prevents the problem but doesn't solve it. Does somebody knows something about the consequences Start menu invocation on the running application ? Is there something that can be done (priority, events handling, whatever...) to correct this ? Thanks, Johann.D Tag: ActiveSync 4.0 Developers Preview ActiveSync API Question Tag: 101211

    - WM5 freezes after application termination Hello, we have an problem with an old PPC 2003 application using several DLLs, all compiled with eVC 3. The DLLs interact over a COM Interface and intensivly uses the TCP/IP socket and heap memory. Approx. 10 to 20 seconds after terminating the application the WM5 device totally freezes and only a soft reset brings it back to life. This only happens if we permanent uses the DLL functions for more than an hour. Additionally this problem occours only when using the DLLs with our Application. Tests with other test applications does not have this effect. But when we use the application without use of the DLL functions the application terminates normal. The Dlls and the application bases on MFC classes but only the DLLs uses COM to interact. Has somebody an idea where the problem could be?

    - SHSipPreference not working well on WM5 Pocket PC? hi, apparently SHSipPreference does not work well on WM5 Pocket PC (I tested with the emulator). for example, SHSipPreference(hDlg, SIP_UP), which should open the SIP panel for a dialog, very often leaves it closed. and yes, I checked that another call to SHSipPreference, e.g. SHSipPreference(hDlg, SIP_DOWN), is not called subsequently for that same dialog or any other of my window. I don't have any problems on Pocket PC 2003 / 2003 SE, and problem this seems to be specific to WM5. It makes it very difficult to have a dialog that activates with the SIP always opened (i.e. UP).

    - How do I check & enable submenu items in Pocket PC App? I have a pocket PC 2003 app written in MFC. Off the main menu, I have a submenu with some items which need to be checked/unchecked and enabled/disabled according to the current state of the app. Sounds simple, right? You just add a COMMAND_UI handler and set it appropriately, right? Unfortunately, wrong. On Win32 that works just fine. But on the Pocket PC it does not. The reason is because MFC relies upon receiving WM_INITMENUPOPUP messages whenever the main OR the submenus popup. On Win32 it receives those messages. On the PocketPC, it only receives WM_INITMENUPOPUP for the MAIN menu popping up. Not for any of the submenus. So I (and MFC) have no way of knowing that the user clicked on the submenu or that the submenu popped up. So I have no way of knowing that I need to check/uncheck or enable/disable the items on that submenu. Can anyone guide me here? What do I do? Is there some setting I can flip on the window/menu to allow me to be alerted when the user has clicked a submenu?

    - Converting WinCE 3.0 to WinCE.net Hello folks, I have a problem of runnung application, written in embedded WinCE 3.0 on WinCE.net device. When i start , it says "Cann't find _MyApp_ or one of it's components. Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all the required libraries are avasilable" and doesn't run. It runs pretty good on regular PocketPC device with untill to 2003 OS (like IPaqs etc). As far as i understand my app wants some 'system' dll, that is not available on WinCE.net device. I read that CE 3.0 apps should run on CE.net, but it doesn't. Question : How to know what dll to supply or is there any other solution ? Yours Dimitry Farberov.

    - How to center a [smaller] form on a Pocket PC? I have a small dialog box that I'd like to center on the PPC's screen. So in the constructor of this form I added this code: Size size = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Size; this.Left = (size.Width - this.Width) / 2; this.Top = (size.Height - this.Height) / 2; Horizontally everything works perfectly but vertically the form is shifted way too far to the top. Why is this and how do I correct the problem? -- Robert W. Vancouver, BC www.mwtech.com Tag: ActiveSync 4.0 Developers Preview ActiveSync API Question Tag: 101184

    - issues with another instance of running application Hi there, I am using one shell extension handler. This shell Extension handler allows to add file in my application (when right click on that file). Now My problem is that When first time I right click any file and click on add to My app, My application successfully runs and that file gets added in my application. so my application is running. Now When I right click another file to add in my Application, I want that this another file also gets added to previous running application, i.e. I want single instance of My app running. So what I did in my code as follows : - HANDLE handle = CreateMutex(NULL,FALSE,"MyApp"); if(GetLastError() == ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS) { CWnd *pWndPrev ;//, *pWndChild; CWnd *pWndChild = NULL ; if (pWndPrev = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, "MyApp" )) { pWndChild = pWndPrev->GetLastActivePopup(); if (pWndPrev->IsIconic()) pWndPrev->ShowWindow(SW_RESTORE); pWndChild->SetForegroundWindow(); } return FALSE; } This code works fine , it allows to run an already running instance. But This new instance is having all previous instance values for the variables. I want to supply new arguments to all variables so I used PostMessage(WM_COPYDATA.... But then again it is using previous instance variables. so can anyone plz help me out in this situation. Waiting for quick reply. Thanking you....

    - Read the parameters of the WIFI connection Hello, I'm making a program with Embedded Visual C++ for reading the parameters of the WIFI connection. On the net and MSDN, I have found this code : hDevice = CreateFile( TEXT("NDS0:"), 0, FILE_SHARE_READ, (LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES) NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, (HANDLE) INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE); if (hDevice != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { // Query the device for its type NDIS_OID OidCode = OID_GEN_PHYSICAL_MEDIUM; ULONG ulOidPhysicalMedium = 0; ULONG ulBytesReturned = 0; DWORD dwBytesOut = 0; BOOL bResult = FALSE; SetLastError(0); bResult = DeviceIoControl( hDevice, IOCTL_NDIS_QUERY_GLOBAL_STATS, &OidCode, sizeof(NDIS_OID), &ulOidPhysicalMedium, sizeof(ULONG), &ulBytesReturned, NULL ); (...) } During the execution, hDevice is a valid handle, but DeviceIoControl returns false (and GetLastError returns C0000001). Do you know why ? I have searched the web and MSDN and forum ... and I haven't found. PS : I'm using Embedded Visual C++ 4 and Pocket PC 2003 Thank you for your answers ...

    - Trouble Displaying Modal Dialog Box I'm having a horrendous time trying to display a little dialog box over top of my main form. The dialog in question is something I want to display right at the beginning if the user hasn't previously entered some Name info. But I want it to sit on top of the primary form, which is a main menu / title screen. But I've tried everything I can think of and either keep getting it displayed full screen, which I don't want, or displayed without any border, which I don't especially want. Maybe it's because it's late and I'm tired but I just can't figure out why it's so difficult to display a simple dialog box on my Pocket PC?!? -- Robert W.

    - CAB installer on WM5 PPC does not check PlatformMax correctly! BAD NEWS: The CAB installer on WM5 Pocket PC does not test correctly PlatformMax :( It installs without any warning any CAB file that has PlatformMax >= 4.0 (instead of 5.0!). (if PlatformMax < 4.0, the CAB will not install on WM5 - so yes, I know that my [Platform] section is taken into account by cabwiz.exe - the problem is in the WM5 CAB installer on the device) This is a bug! The CAB installer on WM5 should refuse to install any CAB that has PlatformMax <= 5.0, since the OS version of WM5 is 5.01. This is very bad news, as it will probably make it impossible, even when using the new [Platform] section in the .inf file, to create an setup file that contains at the same time a CAB for Pocket PC 2003 and a CAB for WM5. The problem is that the two CAB are candidate for installation on WM5, so there is no guarantee which one will install. Unless the CAB installer part on the PC is smart enough to select the correct CAB, and I have not tested this yet. But this is definitely a bug in the CAB installer on the WM5 device.

    - Why won't DataSet work in DLL? I've come across a strange occurrence. In my CF app, if I use the following line it works fine: DataSet dataSet = new DataSet(); But if I include the same line in a method that resides in a DLL (that's shared by both a WinForms app and a CF app) then I get a 'System.TypeLoadException' when I try to execute the method from the CF app. I'm including System.Data in both places. If I didn't know better, I'd think that the DLL is being compiled for the WinForms app and that there's some difference with DataSets between the two platforms. But surely that can't be true?!? Any idea how I can resolve this problem? -- Robert W. Vancouver, BC www.mwtech.com Tag: ActiveSync 4.0 Developers Preview ActiveSync API Question Tag: 101148

    - An easy way to corrupt Windows Mobile 2002/2003 device This line of code: CreateFile(_T("\\Windows\\cplmain.cpl"), GENERIC_READ, 0, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL); results in completely empty Today screen and full removal of all system (except for OEM and custom-installed) items from Settings menu after soft-reset.
