    - Strange error when compiling project Hi! I am trying to migrate a project from VS2003 to VS2005 but this seems harder than I was hoping for. When I try to compile my project I receive the following error, although it's flagged as a Warning: An internal error occurred in PlatformVerificationTask. System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.PocketPC.asmmeta, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.

    - Is there an interface for accessing a remote database from pocketpc? Hi, All: I know RDA works for MS Sql server 2000/2005, but I like to access many other databases like Oracle, mySQL, Access, ..... from my pocket pc. Is there a generic interface for me to access a remote database other than MS Sql server 2000/2005 from a pocket pc? Why does RDA require IIS? It does not make sense to me. It adds an extra layer, doesn't it? Could you explain it for me? Thanks. Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115425

    - WinCE COM port doesn't work on low baud rates I am working on some program that has to comunicate at low baud rates. Problem is that data is sometime transmitted, and sometime not. There is no pattern in that. I tried it on HP6515 and Toradex Colibri evaluation board. HP6515 is Pocket PC 2003, and Colibri is WM 5.0. I tried that from VS2003, and VS2005. It is allways the same. I tried new System.IO.Ports.SerialPort control in CF2. The problem persist. I put some wireing connected to COM port and HyperTerminal to listen data between PDA and my device. I even put osciloscope on TX line that is triggered wit RTS line that goes high to make sure that data is transmitted or not. Sometimes there is no data. On baud rates higher than 2400 (4800,9600,19200...) the code work OK. Here is my sample code. Just place new class in your project, and call it with Dim comTemp as New Comm comTemp.SendData("Some data") Public Class Comm Private WithEvents COMctl As OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.Port Public Sub OpenPort() Dim setTemp As New OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.HandshakeNone 'Set port to 300 7 E 1 setTemp.BasicSettings.BaudRate = OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.BaudRates.CBR_300 setTemp.BasicSettings.ByteSize = 7 setTemp.BasicSettings.Parity = OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.Parity.even setTemp.BasicSettings.StopBits = OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.StopBits.one Me.COMctl = New OpenNETCF.IO.Serial.Port("COM1:", setTemp) Me.COMctl.Open() Me.COMctl.DTREnable = True 'DTR line drives device connected on COM1 End Sub Public Sub ClosePort() Me.COMctl.DTREnable = False Me.COMctl.Close() Me.COMctl.Dispose() MyBase.Finalize() End Sub Public Sub SendData(ByVal strOut As String) Call OpenPort() Dim buf() As Byte buf = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(strOut) Me.COMctl.RTSEnable = True 'needed to trigger osciloscope COMctl.Output = buf System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500) Me.COMctl.RTSEnable = False Call ClosePort() End Sub End Class Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115419

    - Relato de la nueva gran batalla de Fidel CON LA PASION DE SIEMPRE HABLO DE CHAVEZ, DE LA MEDICINA CUBANA... Y DE SU PROPIA MUERTE Relato de la nueva gran batalla de Fidel El l=EDder cubano mostr=F3 c=F3mo evoluciona su recuperaci=F3n en el encuentro con el diputado argentino. Tambi=E9n elogi=F3 a Hugo Ch=E1vez por su lucha para ingresar al Consejo Permanente de la ONU y por aliarse a sectores medios para "hacer los cambios democr=E1ticamente" y mostr=F3 su preocupaci=F3n por terminar de editar sus memorias en vida. Por Miguel Bonasso Desde La Habana Castro y Bonasso compartieron 90 minutos. El diputado argentino le regal=F3 un ordenador de viaje. Me hab=EDa preparado para verlo, pero la realidad fue mucho m=E1s fuerte. Incluso le llevaba de regalo un ordenador de viaje. Es decir una suerte de cartuchera de cuero argentino, que en su interior tiene espacios predeterminados para papeles, tarjetas, pasaje, pasaporte, anotaciones varias, todo lo que necesita un viajero. S=E9 muy bien que Fidel Castro no lleva tarjetas de cr=E9dito ni dinero en sus traves=EDas por el mundo, pero el modesto presente encerraba un mensaje subliminal: "Espero que pronto est=E9 bien para volver a viajar". Pero una cosa es lo que uno imagina, teme, desea, y otra bien distinta el hecho en s=ED. De pronto el llamado telef=F3nico: "Est=E9 a tal hora en tal lado". Y nada m=E1s. Pod=EDa ser que lo viera personalmente o pod=EDa ser que me encontrara con algunos de sus hombres de confianza en una reuni=F3n preparatoria. No pod=EDa creer en mi buena suerte: era el primer invitado a la Cumbre del Movimiento de los No Alineados que ten=EDa el privilegio de ver al Comandante en su recuperaci=F3n, como ya lo hab=EDan visto antes de la Cumbre Hugo Ch=E1vez y Evo Morales. Estaba tan aturdido que olvid=E9 hasta una elemental libreta de notas por si ten=EDa la suerte suplementaria de que me hiciera una declaraci=F3n. Pero al llegar a la cita supe que lo ver=EDa. Con sus colaboradores m=E1s cercanos recorr=ED el pasillo como en un travelling cinematogr=E1fico donde el visitante ve intensificarse la realidad a medida que avanza: al comienzo los hombres de su custodia vestidos de verde oliva, luego su m=E9dico personal siempre derrochando bonhom=EDa, al final del largo corredor un tr=EDo compuesto por dos mujeres y un hombre alto, los tres de guardapolvo blanco. =BFM=E9dicos, enfermeros? Por fin una se=F1ora muy amable que me introdujo en la habitaci=F3n. Un cuarto austero, blanco, totalmente despojado de adornos. Fidel, que estaba sentado en una cama, con una mesa blanca y m=F3vil por delante, se puso de pie para darme un abrazo. Vest=EDa una bata color vino y un pijama haciendo juego y, por suerte, era el Fidel de siempre. M=E1s delgado, es verdad, pero no tanto como lo hab=EDan mostrado unas fotos recientes. "Perd=ED cuarenta y un libras -me record=F3-, pero estoy recuperando peso. Ya casi la mitad de lo que perd=ED." Muchos kilos para quien ya parec=EDa un hidalgo espa=F1ol de prosapia cervantina y ostenta ahora un perfil quijotesco. Nos sentamos para charlar. Eran las once y media de la ma=F1ana habanera de ayer y afuera reverberaba la can=EDcula. El nudo que yo tra=EDa en la garganta se afloj=F3 de golpe: puede sonar incre=EDble, pero Fidel estaba tan l=FAcido y filoso como siempre. El mismo tono confidencial de conspirador que el oyente debe desentra=F1ar, las mismas se=F1as misteriosas o las acentuaciones gestuales de alg=FAn hallazgo verbal, alguna orden a sus colaboradores en voz bien alta, para demostrar que puede regresar a la oratoria en cualquier momento. "Ves", subray=F3. "Puedo hablar en voz bien alta si quiero." Pas=F3 un rato largo antes de que me hiciera la confesi=F3n que carga de peso existencial esta nota. Arranc=F3 como siempre, apasionado por los hechos colectivos, pol=EDticos, poniendo lo personal en un tercer o cuarto plano de sombra. Estaba entusiasmado con el hecho de que Venezuela gane la batalla para ocupar un sitial en el Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas. "Genio y figura", pens=E9. El tr=E1nsito por la enfermedad y la presencia cierta de la muerte no han disminuido un =E1pice la intensidad de sus sue=F1os y obsesiones. "No van a poder bloquear el ingreso", asegur=F3. Y subray=F3 que su gran amigo Hugo Ch=E1vez Fr=EDas se ha convertido en un l=EDder mundial. "Ch=E1vez ha ido creando un modelo indestructible. No es portador de un socialismo extremo, sino realista. Indiscutiblemente va a tener =E9xito en crear un gran partido que re=FAna y represente a todos los revolucionarios venezolanos. Los diversos partidos que lo apoyaban han respondido bien a su convocatoria para lograr la unidad. Adem=E1s -agreg=F3- ha prometido realizar todos los cambios democr=E1ticamente, consultando al pueblo. No es extremista. Ha prometido cooperar con las capas medias y el respeto y la colaboraci=F3n con las empresas privadas que acaten los principios de la revoluci=F3n. Adem=E1s ha desarrollado programas sociales que no tienen paralelo en el mundo y que lo convierten en un l=EDder imbatible. Pienso que un pueblo tan saqueado como el venezolano merece este cambio. Y veo con alegr=EDa el impulso hacia la integraci=F3n de Am=E9rica latina, en la que Venezuela ser=E1 un ejemplo de lo que se puede hacer cuando un pa=EDs pone sus recursos al servicio del pueblo. Ch=E1vez no s=F3lo usa bien esos recursos sino que los multiplica con medidas fiscales que antes no se tomaban." Despu=E9s abord=F3 el tema de la "Operaci=F3n Milagro", uno de los programas de salud que m=E1s lo apasiona. Y lo hizo con la misma intensidad de siempre. Como si no hubiera pasado por el filo de la navaja dejando en terrible suspenso a millones de personas. Record=F3 que en apenas dos a=F1os, unos 400 mil latinoamericanos hab=EDan sido operados de cataratas, pterigium y otras enfermedades de la vista con la nueva t=E9cnica oftalmol=F3gica desarrollada por los m=E9dicos cubanos. Y que todas esas operaciones, muchas de las cuales se hab=EDan llevado a cabo en Cuba, hab=EDan sido gratuitas, en beneficio de los latinoamericanos m=E1s pobres. Al rato Fidel me ofreci=F3 m=E1s caf=E9, mientras nos sacaban un mont=F3n de fotos. Con su sempiterno entusiasmo, me coment=F3 admirado: "Son incre=EDbles estas c=E1maras digitales". Nos =EDbamos acercando a la confesi=F3n. Sobre la mesa hab=EDa un libro voluminoso. La portada sobria, bien realizada, anunciaba Cien horas con Fidel. Y abajo: "Conversaciones con Ignacio Ramonet. Segunda edici=F3n. Revisada y enriquecida con nuevos datos". Algunos meses antes hab=EDa visto con inocultable envidia la primera edici=F3n de esa megaentrevista en la que el l=EDder cubano pasa revista a su vida y a la historia mundial que lo destaca como uno de sus principales protagonistas. En junio =FAltimo, el Comandante me hab=EDa mostrado sus correcciones manuscritas a las respuestas de la primera edici=F3n. Las preguntas de Ramonet, obviamente, hab=EDan sido respetadas por el entrevistado. A fines de julio, cuando volv=ED a verlo en C=F3rdoba, viajaba acompa=F1ado por las pruebas de p=E1gina, en pleno proceso de revisi=F3n y aumento. Pero nunca hubiera imaginado lo que ocurri=F3 tras la operaci=F3n del 27 de julio. "Lo segu=ED corrigiendo en los peores momentos -musit=F3-. No par=E9 de corregirlo. No creas que lo hice cuando mejor=E9. Desde los primeros d=EDas. Y lo hice no s=F3lo por su contenido sino porque le hab=EDa prometido al pueblo que lo revisar=EDa antes de publicarlo. As=ED que pas=E9 muchas horas dict=E1ndole a Carlitos (Valenciaga, su secretario). Muchas horas." Entonces me mir=F3, con los ojos muy abiertos y esa expresi=F3n como de asombro que le redondea la boca cuando tira un dardo decisivo, para aclarar en un tono profundo, pero despojado de =E9nfasis y dramatismo: "Quer=EDa terminarlo porque no sab=EDa de qu=E9 tiempo dispondr=EDa". La sombra del gran l=EDmite, de la imposibilidad de toda posibilidad, anidaba todav=EDa en el fondo de la mirada como un fondo de caf=E9. Coment=E9: "Otra gran batalla". Asinti=F3 en silencio y agreg=F3: "Estas cosas te las cuento como amigo y escritor". Despu=E9s se excus=F3 de no poder regalarme el libro por razones protocolares, hasta entregar una copia a los jefes de Estado que concurren a la reuni=F3n del Movimiento de No Alineados. A nuestro lado, el infatigable Carlitos Valenciaga -el joven colaborador que ley=F3 la hist=F3rica proclama sobre el traspaso de poderes- ponderaba algunas incorporaciones a esta nueva edici=F3n aumentada: "Hay cartas in=E9ditas a Sadam Hussein recomend=E1ndole que se retire de Kuwait. Las cartas a Nikita Kruschev contextualizadas". Sobre la mesa blanca hab=EDa tambi=E9n un folleto reproduciendo la portada del libro con la siguiente leyenda: "Cap=EDtulo 24 - Los sucesos de abril de 2002 y otros temas de Am=E9rica latina". "Est=E1 traducido a nueve idiomas", aclar=F3 Valenciaga. Ped=ED uno para reproducirlo como anticipo en P=E1gina/12, despu=E9s que se le entregara a los jefes de Estado. En particular a dos amigos fieles que el Comandante aguarda con impaciencia: Ch=E1vez y Evo Morales. En ese cap=EDtulo 24, adem=E1s de las intimidades del fallido golpe contra Ch=E1vez, el lector encontrar=E1 interesantes reflexiones sobre los militares nacionalistas y progresistas de Am=E9rica latina, como Omar Torrijos, Juan Velasco Alvarado o el propio Juan Domingo Per=F3n. Y referencias agudas a la derrota de Carlos Menem y el triunfo de N=E9stor Kirchner en 2003. Se acercaba el momento de la despedida. La charla se hab=EDa prolongado durante hora y media. Fidel se=F1al=F3 el modesto televisor que ten=EDa frente a la cama (nada de plasma ni equipo estereof=F3nico) y coment=F3: "La tele est=E1 cada vez m=E1s violenta. Todo es de una violencia extrema. Todo es publicidad y violencia. Desde las ficciones hasta los noticieros internacionales". Le dije, con total sinceridad, que me iba muy contento de verlo tan bien. "Todo en su justo medio", advirti=F3, mientras me daba un apret=F3n de manos. "No hay que olvidar que la m=E1quina a reparar ya tiene ochenta a=F1os."

    - How to load/unload drivers at runtime Hi, I am currently working closely with USB on the WM5 platform. My application requries that the USB function on the device uses the Serial_Class driver (which is found under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/drivers/USB/FunctionDrivers or something like that). There is a setting in that key which controls which Function driver is loaded by default, and if I change this from RNDIS to Serial_Class, then my application works perfectly. The only downfall is that I can no longer hotsync (I have seen other devices hotsync after removing RNDIS however not all will). For this reason, I require a way to programatically change which USB Function driver is running. Does anybody know how to unload a driver from the Active drivers and load another in its place? An interesting thing to note is the program called 'Modem Link' which is distributed with most WM5 devices I've seen. This can programatically switch between RNDIS and USBSER_Class, which turns the PDA into a USB modem. I have not been able to find any information about how it operates though. Source code would be immensely useful. Anybody know how to do it? Many Thanks, Wayne Uroda Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115381

    - Autostart on WindowsCE from a SD Hi, I've got a small problem on the programming of a PDA, a Q-tek s-200: I have developed a small autostart application in C++ that should run whenever a SD card is inserted into the PDA. I have copied the executable into a 2577 folder on the SD but it doesn't seem to work. It has to be noticed that the PDA has a TI OMAP 850 CPU and uses the Windows Mobile Version 5 OS. Maybe the cpu is not an ARMv4? Or maybe the application must be signed ? Thanks for any suggestion ! Dario Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115375

    - Reading/Writing File Hi, I need to read/write file on the LAN (throught WI-FI access) from a Pocket PC. I tryed mapping a network resource with WNHetAddConnection3 and it work but it's very slow. Every time that I turn off the device (or the device go off with power saving) I have to wait 50 seconds for "restoring the connection". Does exists a more efficent way to read/write file over the LAN ? Thanks in advance Stefano Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115374

    - Big problem about developing a PPC 2003 application for WM 5.0 dev Hi all, I developing a small PPC program by using VS.net 2003, when I build it on PPC emulator 2003 SE, everything is fine. However, I use my DELL x51v as device tool in VS.net 2003 and build in debug mode, I found that the program cannot be builded successfully due to many exceptions(most are system.exception). Here is a method that occured a exception: Public Function ImportConfig(ByVal strDelimiter As String, ByVal strFilePath As String) Dim delimitCount, intCounter, lineCount As Integer Dim result As Boolean Dim strFields, line As String Dim strItem(,) As String Dim myCboItems As New cboItems 'cboItems is a structure Try Dim oSR As New StreamReader(strFilePath) oSR.BaseStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin) intCounter = 0 While (oSR.Peek() > -1) line = oSR.ReadLine() If (InStr(line, "=") > 0) Then Dim parameter As String Dim varibles As String parameter = Mid(line, 1, InStr(line, "=") - 1).Trim varibles = Mid(line, InStr(line, "=") + 1, line.Length - 1).Trim For Each strFields In varibles.Split(strDelimiter.ToCharArray) Select Case parameter Case "Username"'<-- after reaching here, bug occured in mscorlib.dll myCboItems.userName = strFields Case "Property" myCboItems.strProperty = strFields Case "Building" ReDim Preserve myCboItems.strBuilding(intCounter) myCboItems.strBuilding(intCounter) = strFields Case "Floor" ReDim Preserve myCboItems.strFloor(intCounter) myCboItems.strFloor(intCounter) = strFields Case "Location" ReDim Preserve myCboItems.strLocate(intCounter) myCboItems.strLocate(intCounter) = strFields Case "Items" ReDim Preserve myCboItems.strItem(intCounter) myCboItems.strItem(intCounter) = strFields Case "Event" ReDim Preserve myCboItems.strEvent(intCounter) myCboItems.strEvent(intCounter) = strFields End Select intCounter = intCounter + 1 Next intCounter = 0 End If ' Read each "Field" in the line End While oSR.Close() Return myCboItems Catch e As System.IO.FileNotFoundException MsgBox("File " & FilePath & " not found.")

    - Browse a website on my PC using the PDA thru USB Using Mobile IE I want to be able to browse websites that are running on my PC via the USB connection. I can do it when the PC is connected to the internet as it has an IP address. But when the PC is not connected I cannot access it via Mobile IE though I still can view the handheld from the PC. When the PC is disconnected from the work network the address 127.0.0.1 will work for browsing on the PC but I can't use that IP address from the PDA, for obvious reasons. I can't seem to use the PC's name. I have tried using a permanent IP address on the network adapter but when I disconnect from the work LAN ipconfig /all reports no IP address. It is almost like you need the ability to set an IP address into activeSync but my understanding of it is that activeSync acts as Internet Connection Sharing. The reason I need this is for when I am demonstrating software to clients. Any help would be appreciated Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115364

    - DLLImport Breaks Designer in VS2005 Hi All, Using a DLLImport in a user control prevents it from working in designer. To reproduce this issue, create a control library... leave the default control. Create an override for the Paint and have it clear the background to red. Next create an application project (need a Form to drag control on to). To verify your control works, drag it from the tool box... you get a red square. Now delete it from the Form and add the following to the control: References: using System.Reflection; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; Code: [DllImport("coredll.dll")] private static extern void keybd_event(byte bVk, byte bScan, uint dwFlags, uint dwExtraInfo); Now try dragging the control to the Form after you compile... you get a big gray square with the name space in it... it no longer draws itself and you may get different errors if you close and reopen studio with the project. This is a serious issue. Please help. Is there a fix... am I doing something wrong? Does anyone get the same behavior? Thanks in advance, Craig Buck Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115362

    - errno and time in WinCE general questions hi, i just posted about an issue with errno and WinCE. i've seen so far in my porting efforts that these some of the main issues. can anyone point me to a place that covers these topics? how in general these are handled? it would be nice to have a source to look at the standard way of dealing with these. for instance, right now i'm porting some internal libs to Mobile 5.0, and many functions call strerror(), which doesn't exist in Mobile 5.0, so i need to code around this, but am having problems as i described in my last post. tia, mickm Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115361

    - errno.h and WinCE hi, i have a situation where i'm porting a set of internal libraries from XP to WinCE, using VC2005 and the Mobile 5.0 SDK. these are low level libraries written in C, and use many of the windows GUI interface calls for drawing to bitmaps, displaying the bitmap on a DC, etc... my problem is errno.h related. a function makes a call to strerror(), which of course comes up as undefined. in searching around on the net, i found where someone was doing this in their api, (i forget the product it was for..), // OS provides a system error string DWORD dwError = GetLastError(); CString csDescription; FormatMessage( FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM | FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS, NULL, dwError, MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL,SUBLANG_DEFAULT), csDescription.GetBuffer(255), nSize, NULL ); csDescription.ReleaseBuffer(); since i wanted this to be available outside of this function, and not have to worry about allocating and freeing memory, for the moment i just made a global char array and got rid of usning a CString here. when i compile, i get DWORD, FORMAT... etc. coming up as undeclared identifiers, which makes sense as i don't have the proper includes. however, when i started off by adding #include <windows.h> i get the following: uterror.c C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK\include\ARMV4I\winnt.h(2976) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'PCONTEXT' C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK\include\ARMV4I\winnt.h(2977) : error C2059: syntax error : '}' C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK\include\ARMV4I\winbase.h(1414) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'LPCONTEXT' C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK\include\ARMV4I\winbase.h(1414) : error C2059: syntax error : ';' now i just figured that i don't have the proper include file order, and since i don't know it, i decided to create an app from scratch and see what it does. as far as i can see, VC2005 doesn't have a default project for WinCE, Mobile or anything of the sort, so i created a default win32 project, and then changed the configuration to 'Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC'. well, i get the same compile errors as listed above!!! so it seems there is a problem in the Mobile 5.0 SDK. anyone have any ideas for me? all i need to do is to get this thing to compile and run right now, i can dive into the proper way to do it later if i need to. thanks, mickm Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115360

    - About CeCopyFile(RAPI) hi all, I have written a short test program use CeCopyFile() function to copy files from PPC to PC. But there are allways errors returned. For file the error number is 3 or 32 while for folder the error number is 5. I use CeFindFirstFile() and CeFindNextFile() to get the remote file path, so it exists absolutely. I don't know the the reason for it. I have searched for the threads related. It is said that CeCopyFile() is not reliable and we should write CeCreateFile(), CeReadFile(), CreateFile() and WriteFile() ourselves so as to achieve the functionality of CeCopyFile(). Really?

    - wceload breaks on Axim51 We ran into a problem when we shifted our device to Dell Axim x51 [spec: OS Name: Microsoft Windows CE; OS Version: 5.1 Build 70; Processor: StrongARM] from the iPAQ PocketPC 2003 [spec: OS Name: Microsoft Windows CE; OS Version: 4.20 Build 1081; Processor StrongARM]. The problem is with wceload. Nothing has changed in the code when we shifted from PPC2003 to PPC51. The parameters to wceload remains * /noaskdest /noui "my.cab"* After searching through the net, I realized that the behaviour of wceload has changed from PPC2003 to PPC51. From this link - http://blog.opennetcf.org/afeinman/default,date,2005-04-20.aspx the OP talks about the switch /noaskdest and its peculiar behaviour. Keeping in tune with this fact, the parameters to wceload now became * /noui "my.cab"*. Now WaitForSingleObject does not return anything. The applications justs exits at this point. Though after some amount of time, the cab gets extracted. From yet another link - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;297962 I used the boilerplate code provided there. Even for this approach, the setup application exits just before *if (WAIT_OBJECT_0 == WaitForSingleObject(hEvent, INFINITE))*. I am out of options now. I want to know whether the analysis of wceload (on Axim 51) not able to perform well with WaitForSingleObject is right ? Am I doing something wrong ? Can anyone tell me 1. What has changed in wceload 2. How to overcome the above problem. Any other approach is welcome as well. BTW, I have to say these cab files are not signed. Does that make any difference ?

    - VS2005, C#, .Net: start new project, no debugging info?!? Hi, I've just finished my first experiments with VS2005, C#, .Net. Now I want to start a new project from scratch, but debugging does not seem to work as advertised. I'm targeting a Dell Axim x51v Pocket PC connected to my developer machine through USB, ActiveSync 4.1. The symbol for my breakpoint turns from a big, filled, red dot into an outlined dot with an exclamation mark - somewhere during the rebuild, deploy, start-up cycle. Help in the tooltip seems to suggest I do not have debugging symbols or information, but I am sure I have set my Configuration to 'Debug'. Any suggestions? I got a nagging feeling that I'm overlooking something very obvious, but I'm out of options now. Hints much appreciated, cheers, Sandor Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115341

    - CDynamicAccessor, GetValue and blobs Hi All, I have a SQL Server 2005 database and I am pulling down (RDA) a table to SQL Server CE. I have a field that is nvarchar(512) on the desktop side which gets down to the device as ntext (blob.) So, I need to use CDynamicAccessor's GetValue to read this blob (which is really just some longer text than just 256 characters and that's why it gets converted to ntext) Of course, everything is UNICODE... so please keep that in mind. Please tell me if this is correct: == Code === IUnknown** ppUnknown = NULL; ISequentialStream* pISequentialStream = NULL; ppUnknown = (IUnknown**) cmd.GetValue(1); // cmd is a CCommand<CDynamicAccessor, ... > HRESULT textHR = (*ppUnknown)->QueryInterface(IID_ISequentialStream, (void**) &pISequentialStream); TCHAR pBuffer[512]; // 1024 bytes; i.e., 512 unicode characters aka nvarchar(512) ULONG ulBytesRead = 0; // Part below is taken from an MS sample if (SUCCEEDED(textHR)) { do { HRESULT hr = pISequentialStream->Read(pBuffer, sizeof(pBuffer), &ulBytesRead); } while ( sizeof(pBuffer) == ulBytesRead ); } // End MS sample // Shouldn't the line above be ending in "while ( sizeof(pBuffer) >= ulBytesRead )" instead ?! .. *(pBuffer + ulBytesRead) = NULL; // Add the null terminator to the buffer AfxMessageBox(pBuffer); // I get the right stuff on the screen. // Could I say here: CString str(pBuffer); and expect a unicode string in the str ? or, str = pBuffer sometime later after initialization... == End Code == Also, I have one last question: If I have an integer column that allows NULLs, and I try to read it as: int* pInt = (int*) cmd.GetValue(column); .. what should I get back from GetValue if the column doesn't have any data in it? (is null) I mean, if I would have a 0 in the column, *pInt would be 0, but what if the column in the database would contain no data (would be NULL) ? what would pInt be pointing to, and what would I get if I would dereference it? If pInt would point to an int and *pInt would be 0, how would I distinguish between the two? Thanks! Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115328

    - Connection Manager help Hi all, I am using having trouble understanding the intrictcies of the Connection Manager API. I have written code to establish a connection to a server through ConnMgr and then use sockets to send and receive data from that server. I have seen different behavior in three different circumstances and am wondering how to make sense of the behavior so that my code will work as intended. The three situations are below. 1. When I cradle my device and use the debugger to run my application, ConnMgr successfully connects to the server and my sockets are able to send and receive data to/from the server. 2. When my device is not cradled, ConnMgr fails to connect and when my socket code calls getHostByName(servername), the DNS lookup fails. 3. My device is not cradled. I open Pocket IE, which displays a bubble saying "Connecting to: Broadband Access Using: Cellular Line". After Pocket IE established broadband access, my application is able to connect to ConnMgr and the socket communication to/from the server works. Why does the conneciton not work when not cradled? How can I programmatically access the data channel that Pocket IE opens? What can I do to get connection when not cradled much appreciated, Mike P.S. My connection code is below // Make sure Connection Manager is ready HANDLE hConnMgr = NULL; BOOL bAvailable = FALSE; hConnMgr = ConnMgrApiReadyEvent(); if(!hConnMgr) return; // Wait for 1 second to see if Connection Manager has // signaled the event DWORD dwResult = WaitForSingleObject(hConnMgr, 1000); if(dwResult == WAIT_OBJECT_0) bAvailable = TRUE; // Close the event handle if(hConnMgr) CloseHandle(hConnMgr); // Did it connect ok? if(!bAvailable) return; // Do something now that Connection Manager is ready // Establish a synchronous connection HANDLE hConnection = NULL; DWORD dwStatus = 0; DWORD dwTimeout = 5000; // Get the network information where we want to establish a // connection TCHAR tchRemoteUrl[256] = TEXT("\0"); wsprintf(tchRemoteUrl, TEXT("http://www.servername.com")); GUID guidNetworkObject; DWORD dwIndex = 0; if(ConnMgrMapURL(tchRemoteUrl, &guidNetworkObject, &dwIndex) == E_FAIL) { OutputDebugString(TEXT("Could not map the request to a network identifier")); return; } // Now that we've got the network address, set up the // connection structure CONNMGR_CONNECTIONINFO ccInfo; memset(&ccInfo, 0, sizeof(CONNMGR_CONNECTIONINFO)); ccInfo.cbSize = sizeof(CONNMGR_CONNECTIONINFO); ccInfo.dwParams = CONNMGR_PARAM_GUIDDESTNET; ccInfo.dwFlags = CONNMGR_FLAG_PROXY_HTTP; ccInfo.dwPriority = CONNMGR_PRIORITY_HIPRIBKGND; ccInfo.guidDestNet = guidNetworkObject; // Make the connection request (timeout in 5 seconds) if(ConnMgrEstablishConnectionSync(&ccInfo, &hConnection, dwTimeout, &dwStatus) == E_FAIL) { MessageBox(NULL, _T("Cannot establish connection"), NULL, MB_OK); return; } MessageBox(NULL, _T("CONNECTED"), NULL, MB_OK); // Poll to see if the connection has been established BOOL fLoop = TRUE; BOOL fConnected = FALSE; while(fLoop) { dwStatus = 0; if(FAILED(ConnMgrConnectionStatus(hConnection, &dwStatus))) { // Do some error processing here MessageBox(NULL, _T("Error connecting"), NULL, MB_OK); fLoop = FALSE; break; } // Got the status, do something with it: if(dwStatus & CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED) { MessageBox(NULL, TEXT("Connected!"), NULL, MB_OK); fLoop = FALSE; fConnected = TRUE; break; } if(dwStatus & CONNMGR_STATUS_WAITINGCONNECTION) MessageBox(NULL, TEXT("Establishing a connection...."), NULL, MB_OK); if(dwStatus & CONNMGR_STATUS_DISCONNECTED) { MessageBox(NULL, TEXT("Disconnected from the network...."), NULL, MB_OK); fLoop = FALSE; } } // Connection has been made, continue on... ... //Create a socket //Connect to server //Send/receive data ... } Tag: Adding attributes in MSM 5.0 C# Tag: 115327

I have some custom controls and I would like to set some of their propertys'
default values. I go to the property window for the property (AutoBackColor)
on the Class Diagram page and click the elipsis for the Custom Attributes
property. A box comes up and I enter

DefaultValue("bool", "true")

When I instantiate my custom control, the AutoBackColor property is set to
false!
It is very frustrating because I can not find any source for the proper
syntax for adding system attributes to C sharp programs in the Windows Mobile
5 platform.
Thanks,
