Pocket PC 2003 SE Menu Not Apearing.
Hi,
I have a simple MFC Dialog application that creates a Command Bar Menu using
CommandBar_Create and CommandBar_InsertMenubar APIs. The problem is the menu
is not showing up on the PPC 2003 SE(HP hx2495), but works fine on older PPC
2002 devices(H3800). Any ideas?

Form take up the whole screen
Hi,
When user click on a button, I display a data entry form
instead of using the MessageBox to obtain the user input.
However, when the form is displayed, it takes up the
entire screen and covers up the keyboard/Transcriber
button at the bottom of the screen. No matter what
the size of the form I set (this.ClientSize = ...).
Does anyone knows how to set the form to unveil
the Keyboard/Transcriber icon?
Thanks

Installing PocketPC application
I noticed that some programs for PocketPC I bought are .exe file that
start on my PC and through AcitveSync are loaded into PocketPC. After
I start this .exe file it ask me if I want to install the application
in the default directory, and if I answer "no" - it gives me a choice
of Main Memory, SD or CD card.
I wrote few applications in vb.net. and would like to pack it the same
way, that means to create an .exe file that loads applications to
PocketPC using ActiveSync. Where can I find information how to do it?

Accessing serial port via .net CF
Hi,
I'm using a compaq iPAQ 3760 running Pocket PC 2002 (Version 3.0.11171 Build
11178).
I had a .net 1.1 application reunning on it (ALthough I built in in Visial
studio 2005).
I'm using CFSerialClass.dll to access the serial port.
However I cant find documentation and none of the methods are even commented
so its a bit of a black box.
Does anyone use this or know where to get get API docs?
I'm ms released their own to support serial stuff in 1.1 would I be just
better of using this?

MSMQ on PPC 2003 emulator
Hi,
I'm having difficulty getting MSMQ to work on the PPC 2003 emulator with VS
2005. In trying to get it to work, I've followed various guides (mostly
republications of the same two or three on different sites), with no luck.
Each time, although visadm looks as though everything's installed ok,
checking the status always returns "DISCONNECTED". This is happening with
the emulator set to either DMA or TCP transport.
Steps I'm taking to install are:
* Set name of PPC device
* Copy MSMQ dlls & exes to the Windows directory
* Run Visadm
-- Install
-- Register
-- Verify
-- Reset OS
I've also tried creating a cab file that puts the files in the right place
and sets up most of the registry settings (as per ch 8 in Pro MSMQ: Microsoft
Message Queue Programming) with the same result.
Am I missing some vital step in the install, or could there be something
going wrong between the emulator and my PC OS (WinXP SP2)?
Thanks in advance,

Emulator newbie question
Hi,
I think this is a stupid question (I'm a very newbie in compact
framework developing), but .... it's one day I'm trying to
understand/solve my problem.
I want to create a simple application to make my emulator communicate
with a server.
The first thing I want to do, is to configure the emulator (in my
example a Pocket PC 2003 SE) to connect with my system.
I have followed this steps on the emulator:
. created/configured a VPN (as all terminals of my office network)
. configured the proxy (the same)
. from IE searched the URL of a local web page
An error message tell me that I'have not configured neither a modem nor
a network card, but when I try do make this configurations, it always
ask me a telephone number and I can not understand what is the number
requested.
I thinked to emulate a bluetooth connection but this device is not
present in the emulator and I'm not able to create a new one.
I'm sure I misunderstood something (in Italy whe say "I'm pissing
out").
Can someone help me?

Bluetooth serial profile: remote port negotiation (RPN)
I have developed an application, which talks to a BT serial port
device, which adapts a real physical serial port with a PDA via BT.
This app. has to run on PDA's with Broadcom/Widcomm stack and also with
Microsoft's stack.
Question: Is RPN implemented on both stacks? In other words, when I
change the serial communication parameters of the virtual COM port on
the PDA, does the stack transfers this to my BT type II device, that it
can also change the parameters on its physical side? At least, it is
described in the BT serial profile spec.
Thanks a lot.

Pocket IE document problem
Hi
I am writing a Browser Helper Object (BHO) for IE on Windows Mobile 5.0
platform. The BHO tries to inject some text into the text fields in an HTML
page (say injecting the username into the user name field on the web page).
In the desktop IE environment, we make use of the IHTMLDocument2 interface
to query for the HTML content. Refer to msdn article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwebgen/html/bho.asp
for more details.
However, in the Pocket PC environment, it seems IHTMLDocument2 interface is
not available for use. I developed the mobile device application in Visual
Studio 2005 with Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK installed. In my application, I tried
to include "mshtml.h" file (which is necessary for using IHTMLDocument2
interface), but VS said that "cannot open include file mshtml.h". I thus
checked the directories that VS searched for the header file, and I could not
find "mshtml.h" file there either.
My questions are:
1) Is "IHTMLDocument2" interface supported in Windows Mobile 5.0?
FYI: in the msdn article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/browser/mshtml/reference/ifaces/document2/document2.asp
, it says the minimum OS version for IHTMLDocument2 is Windows CE 2.12 and
Windows 95, so I suspect it should be supported in Windows Mobile 5.0 also.
But why I could not use it?
2) If supported, why couldn't I use them in my VS 5.0 and include the
mshtml.h file? What are the possible problems? Is my SDK installed wrongly?
3) If not supported, what are the other alternatives I should use to
manipulate the HTML document in the webpage? (what are the functions or
interfaces or libraries I should use).
Thanks

eVB dll API
Hi!
I have two functions in eVC++ dll which use file scope static variables.
Both functions were debugged in bare eVC++ debugger (eVC 3.0) and were ok.
When called from eVB 3.0, first funtion worked ok and stored values to those
static variables. Second function, did not see any of stored or initialized
data. Variables vere in non-initilized state for some reason.
So calls from eVB seems to be somehow different as calls from eVC++. I
thougth that maybe VB calls functions as different processes, so I made a
shared memory area, which should be common for all instances of that dll,
but that did not help.
Any idea of what could be the broblem with eVB dll calls?
I also have had broblems returning siple eVC++ integer variables to eVB as
integers. I can catc a variable from eVB integer table taken as ByRef
parameter using the fist table item as the table reference, but the accessed
integer cannot be returned back to eVB either as return value nor put to a
referenced table directly by assignment. Compare
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q106553
Is there any way to debug a dll using eVB as dll calling exe in eVC++
debugger?

Done Button Reverts to Smart Minimize
When a full-screen dialog box is initialized with the SHIDIF_DONEBUTTON flag
set, then the smart-minimize "x" changes to "OK", and generates a WM_COMMAND,
IDOK when tapped, which is what I want. However, while this dialog box is up,
if another application is started from the Start Menu, and then I want to return
to my application, the brief second instance of my application realizes that the
first instance is running, and it calls SetForegroundWindow on the first
instance and then exits, leaving the first instance back in control. So the
dialog box comes back, but somehow the "OK" in the upper right has now reverted
to the smart-minimize "X", and it acts that way too. Why is my "OK"
disappearing and what can I do to keep it there?
By the way, a similar thing happens when one dialog box invokes another dialog
box. If the first dialog box had SHIDIF_DONEBUTTON set, then after the second
dialog box closes and the first dialog box is back in control, the "OK" has once
again reverted to "X". How can I make the "OK" stick?

VS2005: Big Problem about ComboCtrl in MFC8.0
There is a very simple program, with nothing but a combobox, based on SDI.
The problem is when you click "Drop" button of a combobox, it can show the
dropdown list, but when you try to scroll the list, or click any other
position in dropdown list, the list will disappear! So, I means you can't
control scroll bar......(when you click on scrollbar, the dropdown list goes
disappear)
P.S. The way to create such a sample program for test:
1. Open VS2005 IDE, Create a Visual C++ SmartDevice Application.
2. Choose Pocket PC 2003 SDK, SDI, Use MFC in a static library
3. Add a combobox in Resource.

ANN: Labit is proud to announce about releasing VDS 2005 library
Hello all,
Labit is proud to announce about releasing first public build of
VDS suite for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
you can get demo version of the suite at
http://www.labitweb.com/pub/vds2005.zip
Visual Developer Suite is a library of visual controls. Written on C#
programming language the library takes and advantage of .NET technology.
The library helps in developing applications for PocketPC devices, Windows
CE based devices. Designed for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
the library provides 20+ controls with full design time support, and
support all kind of programming languages which support .NET technology
(VB.NET, C#, C++ and so on).
All VDS controls support such features which could not be found anywhere
else but VDS only
a.. extended Look and Feel
b.. gradient background color
c.. Transparent background color
d.. inplace editing
e.. hinting functionality
f.. greatly extended functionality
At Labit we understand that quality of the application and its development
time depends on the quality and functionality of controls used to develop
it, so to provide developers with the best controls possible and to satisfy
every your need we created logical continuation of VDS library - VDS
WinForms Suite. VDS WinForms provides several more extended controls which
could not be found anywhere but are greatly desirable by all developers and
are used practically in every application.

Registry data lost during re-installation (WM5)
After trying out WM5, I discovered something very distressing. Installing a new
version of a program automatically removes all registry settings for that
program before the new version is installed. This is distressing because I had
been using the registry to keep track of many user options, and some calibration
data that the user took some trouble to create. Is this true or all registry
values, or only the ones under HKLM/Software? Is there somewhere else in the
registry where I should store this kind of information? Or must I resort to
using ordinary files?

Repost : MPEG video Streaming on Windows CE
This is the information which I found after carrying heavy search in
google groups and websites..
I'm developing one application for video streaming ie one MPEG file
which is on webserver I've to run it on emulator of Windows CE5.0. The
following tools I'm using ...
1) EVC++4.0
2) Platform Builder 5.0 (for design OS)
3) Windows CE standard sdk 5.0
During search I found one more sdk...from mpegTV website ie
(mtvp-sdk-wince3.0-1.2.2-1 and mtvp-sdk-wince-0.1) this is contain a
sample code for pocket pc 2002 and 2003) Which is not working properly
with windows cE 5.0 OS
.
You will find in google groups itself I've put lots of queries
regarding media player and video streaming from this you can guess how
much I've been wandering to achieve my purpose....So thinking abt the
new software engineer who will going to start this application can get
good help...I'm putting this question like discussion....
After everal searches this wht I found:
1) Windows Media Player dosen't support Mpeg2 format on windows CE OS.
(from some groups query I came to know that windows Media player 10
seriese supports it but it is only available in latest mobile devices
not on emulator). So next option is directshow method.
2) for MPEG video streaming i have use directshow method. Again in this
method I need some filters. For particularly MPEG I have to concentrate
on transform filter which is responsible for decoding. I've searched
MPEG decoder but still some doubt. Can desktop filter work for windows
CE platform. if not then I again have to go for desiging the OS or,
mpeg4 will enough for this purpose which allready there in widows ce
OS?
3) Suppose I found the mpeg codecs then how to use..I didn't find any
proper documents or good sample code so that i can study and make my
own application.
3) If i plan to purchase a thrid party control (activex)..for this
pupose. can anyone suggest me where i can find demo version of that
control because I have to make demo applicatoin to show my client and
then only i can purchase that control. morever I don't have any
physical device so the control should work well with emulator..
Please share your knowledge not only for me for all the software
engineers who are struggling and wandering for these things...

Pocket PC and Hardware Buttons
I hope this isn't a dumb question but then again, I haven't found much
on this topic anywhere on the web.
I'm writing a Java app for a pocket pc using J9 and SWT and I want to
use one of the six hardware buttons on my HP IPaq (I forget the model
but its one of the latest ones with WinCE 5.0). Anyway, there isn't
anything out there except that its a type under SWT...specifically
SWT.HARDKEYUP or SWT.HARDKEYDOWN that can be used in a untyped
listener. I tried writing code to monitor a hardware key being pressed
and with the exception of getting one event trigger, I have not been
able to get anything from any of the buttons. This event, without a
mask, should trigger regardless of which button I push.

Question: Creating Device Emulator Image from Existing Device ROM
Hello,
I received a question from a customer who is using Visual Studio 2005 and
the .NET Compact Framework 2.0. He wants to generate Mobile Device Emulator
images from existing device ROM. I have scoured the web and not found
anything on this, so I'm assuming that it doesn't work. However, before I
throw in the towel, I wanted to run this by all of the experts on this group
to see if anyone has figured out a means to do this.
Thanks in advance,

New Mail Transport for pocket pc 2003
Hi all,
I developed a new implementation on the mail transport for pocket pc 2003
based on the example found in the eVC tools. There is a bug in this example:
the mail sent goes into outbox folder of my new account, but usually it goes
into outbox folder of another account!!
Does anybody knows about this bug? Is there any hints to solve it?

Accessing Pocket Outlook Database for backup/restore functionality
Hey hey :)
We're trying to make a backup solution for Pocket PCs running .NET CF.
We're currently spiking backing up and restoring SMSes. The MAPI seems
to provide no functionality to restore messages, although it has some
create message functionality, properties like sender are read-only.
MAPI33 doesn't seem to help us either. What we basically want is to
backup all SMSes, and give the opportunity to restore them, should the
device lose power, be stolen, or something equally annoying.
What we're thinking now, if indeed we are right (are we?) in assuming
this is not possible via the (Extended) MAPI, perhaps we can access the
underlying database which actually holds the SMS data, and
retrieve/insert fields here. Is this at all possible, and if so, is it
possible via managed C# code, or does a managed wrapper exist?
Thanks in advance,

.NET Check if server is up...
Hi all!
I am connection to a webservice using .NET CF. That's working ok but if the
connection fails or if the server is down, sometimes I get no error message,
it just keeps trying to connect and I cannot abort it...
I tried to set Timeout, but that doesnt solve the problem
What I now want to do is to first check if I can reach the server before
connecting to is!
On Desktop I used this code to do something similar:
Try
Dim w As New Net.WebClient
Dim sr As New
IO.StreamReader(w.OpenRead(http://www.server.com/file.txt))
sr.Close()
w.Dispose()
Catch err As Exception
Msgbox("No Connection")
End Try
That was for getting infos from a file if available...
But in .NET CF there is no Net.Webclient
Anyone knows how I can check if the server is online or not?
Thanks

UCHAR problem
Hello
The problem i have is this :
i want to use the following structure in a DLL that i created:
typedef struct _NDIS_802_11_SSID {
ULONG SsidLength;
UCHAR Ssid [32];
} NDIS_802_11_SSID, *PNDIS_802_11_SSID;
and i want to take the UCHAR Ssid[32] field and copy in it a certain
variable.I've tried the following ways :
NDIS_802_11_SSID Data;
_tcsncpy((TCHAR *)Data.Ssid, mySSID, 32);
strncpy((char *)pData.m_SSID.Ssid, mySSID, 32);
if i display it like this it works : MessageBox(NULL, Data.Ssid, L"",
MB_OK); and it displays ok : "EXAMPLE".
If i pass this as a parameter to a function like this : void X
(NDIS_802_11_SSID Data) and call this function from C# the recieved
string is "E\0X\0A\0\M\0P\0\L\0E\0".We solved this problem also by
using a for loop like this for (j=0; j<32 ; j=j+2) but if we have a
larger string that i want to put in UCHAR Ssid[32]; it will not retain
only 15chars because of the "\0" insertion after each char.I believe
that the problem is in the conversions i'm makeing above, and how i
store the data (with the TCHAR * and char * conversions). Is there a
function to copy from one UCHAR[32] to another UCHAR[32] without
conversions?
The mySSID parameter is taken as a parameter: void y(UCHAR mySSID[32])
,but in the body of the function it is seen as UCHAR[] and i can't use
this :
Data.Ssid = mySSID (error because UCHAR[32] <--->
UCHAR[])
That's it. Hope you can help me in some way.
Thank you.Bye Tag: Cingular 8125 and CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Tag: 107371
lineGetOperatorStatus() hangs the system
Hi,
I am developing an application for pocket PC. In my application I have
created a secondary thread in which I am calling lineGetOperator() TAPI
function to get list of operators in my area. However I have noticed one
thing that although I am calling this API in secondary thread, but this API
takes usually 12 to 15 sec or more and during this time the whole system
hangs (not just my application). Can anyone please tell me what is wrong? Is
this something inherent in this API or am I missing something?
Thanks,
