    - Bug in "My network card connects to:" ? Hello NG, can anyone explain me the logic of the option "My network card connects to:". I have a MDA II (Ver. 1.60) with Windows Mobile 2003. I changed the option "My network card connects to:" from "Work" to "The Internet" and closed the Window. When I reopen the networkcard-window to verify the option I'm very surprised because the option is set to "Work". I tried it again, but I wasn't able to change the option to "The Internet". Is this a bug or a feature ? Thanks for help Michael Tag: ActiveSync IR connection Tag: 87404

    - Help with linking a Non MFC library into an MFC project I've built a static (non DLL) data access library to share between a PPC project and a Smartphone project.

    - Pocket PC NetworkStream.BeginRead block 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.

    - Achieving the functionality of standard control panel applets? Possible? I now understand how to create a Control Panel Applet thanks to this wonderful article: http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/controlpanelapplet.html But, I'm wondering how one can get the exact feel of a standard control panel applet (like About, or Audio, or Backlight, etc.). Let me further explain what I mean. Try this (with let's say the standard control panel applet "Clock"): 1. Start->Settings->System Tab->Clock 2. Tap Alarms Tab 3. Start->Today --- it takes you back to the Today screen 4. Start->Settings->System Tab->Clock --- It was brought up the way I last left this dialog (the Alarms tab has focus) Or to further show my point, for step 2 do this: a. Change the date (or time) b. Click the ok button (Save changes to clock settings? MsgBox appears) (continue on normally - step 3, step 4 - from above) Again, it was brought up the way I last left this dialog - with the MsgBox displayed - a MsgBox with the "Settings" title I may add (get to this later). Things to note about these "standard applets" are: 1. When the dialog appears, it still says "Settings" in the title bar. 2. You can go to the Today screen 3. There's only ever one dialog (or sheet/page). If you leave the dialog before pressing ok btn (through the Start Menu), the dialog is left in it's current state, but no longer visible until you go back to the same applet and click it again. Here's what happens for me when I create a Control Panel Applet (I'll just use a normal dialog right now, as opposed to sheet/page): 1. Dialog appears and the "Settings" title bar is changed to the caption of my dialog. 2. Try to go to Today screen, and it won't let me. 3. While my dialog is up (haven't pressed ok yet), if I go to "Start->Settings" (1st dialog now behind settings window) and tap my applet again - a 2nd dialog appears. I'll now have two different dialogs I'll have to "ok" (or 3, or 4, or 5, depending on how many times I do this) I did discover this link: http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/today_friendly_dialogs.html And I set the value to overlapped. And it did allow me to go to the Today screen. And it seems that only 1 dialog is being displayed (no matter how many times I start the dialog, don't press ok, then go to settings, repeat) But ... 1. The title still gets changed from Settings to the Caption on the dialog 2. When I go back to settings to click the applet, the dialog isn't left off where it was before I lost focus (remember, I'm going to Start->Settings instead of pressing ok on the dialog) For #1, I don't think it is as simple as the programmer chaning the caption on their dialog to "Settings" (maybe it is). I think that if it's properly coded to act exactly like a standard control panel applet, what happens is that the title doesn't change because the dialog properly becomes some type of child to the control panel settings window. Or something like that. And that link above may have at least got me to the point that I can get to the Today screen when using a dialog .. but what about sheet/page? I can't seem to find a way to get this to work with sheet/page. The Sheet class doesn't have a resource where I'm changing it to overlapped. And I did try overriding the PreCreateWindow (think that's the name) virtual function and setting cs.style to WS_OVERLAPPED. Didn't work. I tried setting the property page dialogs to overlapped - but that didn't work either. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get this to work with Sheet/Page! How does one duplicate the standard control panel applets? What are they doing that I'm not? Is it even possible to achieve that standard? Thanks!

The application will call a webservice to retrieve its data and create the necessary datasets. Once the data is downloaded, it will save it into the local database. The problem is performance. Could you recommend a good way of efficiently sending data to the handheld? Right now I am sending the entire dataset down and then dropping the data on the handheld. Itâ??s quite expensive for large tables, and I am sure there is a better way. Here are some considerations towards the issue: ================================ - The server will use MSDE as a database because of the customer's cost requirements. - Some of the tables will contain more than 1200 rows. - The data communication with the webservice is on a separate worker thread. Thank you in advance for your time and efforts, Craig Tag: ActiveSync IR connection Tag: 87311

    - TAPI on PocketPC problem Dear friends, Hi. I wrote two application on my QTek 2020 PDAs. One for dialing the other PDA and one for pick up the call. The first one is ModemDial and the second one is ModemWatch. When I use TAPI for make a voice call the ModemWatch detect incoming call but when I switch to data call, the ModemWatch couldn't detect an incoming call. I have two SIM cards that the data link is activated on both of them. Is there any one has any experience? How can I detect an incoming data call? Thanks A.

    - Setup and Deployment Pocket PC Hi, I want to create a installation package for my pocket pc application. I have been to http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetcomp/html/netcfdeployment.asp to read through the article, but i still got problem Problem : I do not know how to create the 3 major Projects (CustomInstaler, Pre-Build and Setup) that mentioned in that article. I have cut and paste the paragraph to the following... "Two solutions are required for VB.NET. The first contains the Smart Device project called PocketApp. The second solution generates the .msi file and contains the projects CustomInstaller, Pre-Build and Setup. The CustomInstaller and Setup projects are equivalent to the C# projects and the Pre-Build project is a C++ Makefile project; it does not contain any C++ code and is only used to specify a pre-build event. The VB solutions are shown below." I hope someone could tell me how to create these 3 project, and allow me to create a installation package for my application.

    - PTvncHI for VGA released Hi all, PTvncHI, our PPC VNC client specifically designed for VGA PPC's is now available from Handango and will shortly be available from PocketGear. PTvncHI is compatible with WCE 2003 and 2003SE devices though it was specifically designed with VGA (480*640) devices in mind. If you have a WCE2003 QVGA device (240*320) then PTvncGPRS is a better choice. For those of you who don't know, VNC software allows you to remotely view (and control) one device from another, in particular PTvncHI (and our older software PTvncGPRS and PTvncS) allow you to view (and control) a PC from your PPC (or Smartphone - PTvncS). You can connect to your PC via WiFi, GPRS or via Bluetooth(Activesync) or straightforward USB(Activesync). PTvncHI (PTvncGPRS and PTvncS) will all connect to most PC VNC servers eg. PTeSVNC(supplied), UltraVNC, TightVNC and RealVNC. With VNC servers that have server-scaling (eSVNC, PTeSVNC and UltraVNC) you can view screens up to 1280*1024 (or 1024*1280) without server-scaling and screens of any size with server-scaling (eg. a 1600*1200 PC screen at transfer size 800*600), with VNC servers that do not have server-scaling (RealVNC, TightVNC) the max PC screen size you can view is 1280*1024 (or 1024*1280). With a compatible VNC server PTvncHI (etc.) (optionally on the server) allows file transfer either way. PTvncHI has 3 viewing modes - full-screen, no-zoom and zoom. Full-screen is exactly what it says, your entire PC screen is resampled to 640*480 (or 320*240 for non-VGA) so you can see the whole thing on your PPC. No-zoom mode displays the pixels as transferred so you get to see all or a portion of your server screen depending on the server resolution and server-scaling options. Zoom mode either zooms into no-zoom mode *2 or zooms out *2 depending on the size of the transferred screen - for larger transfer sizes (where only a small area is visible in no-zoom mode) zoom mode zooms out instead of in. In PTvncHI (only) in no-zoom or zoom modes if less than 80% of the height/width of your server screen is visible then a small window will appear in the bottom-right corner of your PPC screen giving a view of the entire server-screen. You can tap on this window to move quickly to any location on the server screen and you can tap/hold/drag the small window around the PPC screen - eg. if you need to see the bottom-right corner of the server screen. Please try the trial version before buying - if you have any problems with a version of PTvnc please let us know and we'll endeavour to solve them. bye Dave (Parys Technografx) Tag: ActiveSync IR connection Tag: 87304

    - Moving SQLCE from PPC2002 to PPC2003 We have a VB.NET application running on PPC2002 devices with a SQLCE database. The customer sets up any new devices by running the CF SP2 installer over activesync, and then copying over and clicking the SQLCE cab files (sqlce.dev.ppc3.arm.CAB and sqlce.ppc3.arm.CAB) However, the latest devices the customer has bought are PPC2003 devices, and when they attempt to install the above SQL files, they get a message to say they are incompatible with the system. Is is just a case of installing different SQL Files, or is there more to it? I have found a suggestion on another forum that the files; sqlce.dev.wce4.armv4.CAB and sqlce.wce4.armv4.CAB should be used, but the fact they have WCE rather than PPC in the filename makes me think they're for the CE.NET environment, rather than PPC. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks, Ian. Tag: ActiveSync IR connection Tag: 87301

    - Can Pocket PC Windows Application connect to SQL Server Directly? Can anybody confirm that Pocket PC windows application connect to SQL Server directly? I tested, but after I deployed to my Pocket PC, it tells me the application requires a newer version of Microsoft .Net Compact Framework. I already has the latest Compact Framework installed on the Pocket PC, why ask this? Is there something else to be installed to connect to SQL Server? I checked the GAC_ files, there is no SqlClient.dll installed inside of the pckeot pc. Do I have to install SQL Server CE on the Pocket PC to get this work? Thanks a lot.

    - Programming beginners How-to and tool selection Hi. Thought I would try to create app's for the PocketPC and need a starting point. First: Any good books that takes you through the basics? And then through the (semi-)professional, including programming for network/serial/database apps. Second: What tool is preferred? I have downloaded the eVC++ tool and its related SDK's and emulators for Pocket 2003. I also have VisualStudio .NET 2002 available. What is the better choice? Third: I am a reasonably skilled programmer, having developed some Win32 commercial app's using Borland C++ Builder 5 and embedded systems on custom hardware (mainly Motorola 8 and 32 bit processors). In addition, beginning Builder 5, I studied one of the "bibles", i.e. "Programming Windows" by Charles Petzold. Will any of these experiences be specifically useful when developing for PPC or is it a new animal? Regards Goran Ekstrom Tag: ActiveSync IR connection Tag: 87284

Hi !

When using IR to connect a Pocket PC to a computer, ActiveSync does not
start automatically like it does for serial connections.
Is there any method to initiate an IR ActiveSync connection programatically
in .Net ?
In other words, what "Connect via IR ..." menu does in ActiveSync can be
performed by a piece of code ?

TIA,
Rud

Repplog.exe is the Windows CE side of ActiveSync, so you starting it
should start ActiveSync.
