ActiveSync synchronization

Hi,

Hope I'm asking this in the right group.

I've an application running on a ppc which collects som input
data and save's this in a file.

On the pc an app is running which must be sync'd with the collected data.

When I connect the ppc ActiveSync detect the connection.

What I wanna do is that when the ppc is connected my app detects this
and copies the file with the collected data from the ppc. Deletes the
file on the ppc. And puts a new file on the ppc.

Could anyone point me to some information (example) on how to do this.


Thanks,

Gene.

you can use the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> Microsoft -> Windows CE Services
-> AutoStartOnConnect key.

Have your exe file linked to this key and write the code to delete
files in that exe.

It will automatically do the task when activesync connected

That app might need the desktop communication library at
http://www.opennetcf.org that wraps the RAPI (ha!) functions so you get
get files on and off the device, among other things.

Is it possible to start an app (i.e start SQL Ce replication) on the device
when connected?

Thanks guys for the help.

Found the RAPI library on opennetcf.org that has a nice example in C#
to perform the tasks I want.

Yes. In fact, the only way I could find to stop an app running was to
start another app that killed the first one and then closed itself.
