    - MultiByteToWideChar not working on CE I wrote a program running on desktop version of windows. It takes Shift-JIS encoded data. I use MultiByteToWideChar to converted the data to UNICODE, then use SendInput to print out Japanese characters. I am trying to move the same program on to a English version of Pocket PC(HP 5450). But MultiByteToWideChar always returns 0. I don't know if I need to install Japanese code page on the Pocket PC to make this function work? How do I install code page on Pocket PC? Can I even print out Japanese characters on an English version Pocket PC? Thanks Weiyang Tag: Copy files to Emulator and Use ActiveX Control and COM Tag: 60622

    - How to detect Pocket PC 2003 I use the following function in my code to detect between Pcoket PC 2000 and 2002: BOOL IsPocketPC2002(void) { TCHAR szPlatform[36]; OSVERSIONINFO osVer; GetVersionEx(&osVer); if (osVer.dwMajorVersion==3) if (SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETPLATFORMTYPE,sizeof(szPlatform),szPlatform,0)!=0) if (lstrcmp(szPlatform,TEXT("PocketPC"))==0) return TRUE; return FALSE; } Will this also detect Pocket PC 2003? If not, how can I detect correctly that I run on Pocket PC 2003? I'm being told by some users that my Today plugin isnt transparent in 2003 anymore. The only thing I can think of is that I do different things in my WM_ERASEBKGND and that I'm not doing the right thing for 2003.

    - request to MS: please no silent changes in API's!!! To Microsoft: It is really a bad idea to change some API silently, i.e. so that the "old" code will still compile with no warning or error, but break at runtime.\ Unfortunately there are some silent API changes of that sort between WinCE 3.0 and 4.x i.e. between Pocket PC (or Smartphone) 2002 and 2003. For example, the API for IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID has silently changed i.e. the structure of the DEVICE_ID buffer is completely different between Pocket PC 2002 and 2003, but there is no change in the macro and structure names. This means that Pocket PC 2002 code using this KernelIOControl call (to get the device unique id) will silently break at runtime on Pocket PC 2003. The Pocket PC / Smartphone 2002 code must assume that IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID fills up a 16-byte buffer with the Unique Device ID, but on Pocket PC / Smartphone 2003 the buffer structure is completely different (and variable size). Pocket PC 2002: see page 5 of http://software.symbol.com/files/MS_PocketPC2000-2002.pdf Pocket PC 2003: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wcedsn40/html/cmrefioctl_hal_get_deviceid.asp So, please, Microsoft, can you change the name of the macros when you change an API (e.g. make a IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID_2003 with a different value) , so that applications have less chances to mysteriously break at run-time ?

    - .NET apps and browsers (a) Is there any way to embed a client-side GUI application into Pocket IE, via the .NET Compact Framework? (b) If not, can I write a .NET CF app using C# as a control, so that so that a third party can launch it inside their proprietary browser's frame? Is there a way that the third party browser (written in eVC++) can communicate with my .NET app/control? (c) If not, if I use an ATL/eVC project to create the browser embedded application, can I fork a permanent background thread that I can use across various web pages that comprise my application? i.e. can one create a persistent ActiveX object that does not get deleted when a user changes pages?

    - Downloading applications Hi I'm using eVC++ to write applications for a PocketPC2003. I've created an application which runs on the emulator ok but when I try to download it to the PocketPC I get a "Connection was not created" error. I know that the ActiveSync connection is there. I'm also a bit confused as to how this fits in with the .cab and .inf files that are mentioned in parts of the help files. These are not shown in the sample application and so I'm not sure if I have to create them. All the help files say is that when I select build the application is automatically downloaded. Also if anyone could recommend a good book that deals with this stuff I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance Colin Anderson Tag: Copy files to Emulator and Use ActiveX Control and COM Tag: 60577

    - Newbie question on Pocket PC 2000 Hi all, I would like to develop a sample application for a Siemens/Casio device running Pocket PC on MIPS processor. The Siemens SDK refers to the Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools. I downloaded eMbedded Visual Tools 3.0 - 2002 Edition but it seems to support only recent PPC 2002 devices (e.g. ARM and not MIPS). Is it correct? If this is the case, how do I get the older version of the EVT 3.0 ? Thanks, -- ML Tag: Copy files to Emulator and Use ActiveX Control and COM Tag: 60570

Since eEmbedded Visual Basic does not support a random number generator function, at least not that I can find, is there another solution for unique number generation (for decentralized key field numbering) or a dll addition or something?

    - My kingdom for a useful sync solution I use Outlook XP at work and home. I want ONLY work data on my work PC. I want work AND home data on my PPC and home PC. So my desired state is: AXIM - hold personal and work data Home PC - hold personal and work data Work PC - hold ONLY work data It seems that the only way to accomplish this is through flags - maybe by using catgories. Sounds great, but... Activesync - the solution of filtering by catgory only works from the PPC to the PC and NOT the other way around. Xtndconnect - works the same as Activesync. Intellisync - looked promising and actually offers the function I need, but it is terribly finicky, and hosed my data more than once. I gave up after one week. TrueSync - I`d try it but there is no demo. I`m at a loss... ultimately, my data is more important than my device. I can replace most PPC apps I use with similar (or better) Linux or Palm apps. Can anyone offer any advice or insight on an alternative sync solution or device? Tag: Copy files to Emulator and Use ActiveX Control and COM Tag: 60530

That is say, the only way to develop embedded applications

Xuning,

See newsgroup item from me titled: "VC++ to .NET"
for an answer.

Could you point me to any help on using ATL to create
an ActiveX UI for embedding in Pocket IE? Does
one have to explicitly register the ActiveX using
regsrvce.exe? How does that work for deployment?
