    - Ipaq 5450 serial port issues Hi all Doing some development work involving the IPAQ 5450 serial port addressing an external Bell 202 modem. Using CreateFile() to open COM1: handle = CreateFile((LPCTSTR)CString("COM1:"), GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE, 0, /* exclusive access */ NULL, /* no security attributes */ OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL); Works fine for telephony modems or null modems into another PC but no go for the Bell 202. CreateFile is returning an invalid handle under all circumstances. Does anyone know the circumstances under which CreateFile() will generate a valid handle eg power detection, control line states etc... Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks Albert M Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72066

    - Read File or URL from Javascript in Pocket IE Hi, is there any way left in the current Windows Mobile 2003 to read local files from javascript in local HTML files running in Pocket IE ? Background info: our customer has to change its Handhelds from Siemens Pocket Loox 600 to 610 which runs with the newest Windows Mobile 2003. Our App fails to run on those. Our application is an "HTML application", which means that it consists of Javascript in HTML files. This was pushed by MS two years ago as the easiest way to create Pocket PC applications. There _were_ plenty of examples on the ms site. Now MS seems to disable all vital functions. What we tried so far (it all works on some PDA ranging from CE 3.0 to 2002): * FileSystemObject * XmlDocument.Load * XMLHTTP with file:// url XmlDocument.Load works on a pre-production version of the Loox610 which also has Windows Mobile 2003. Maybe there is a registry switch to toggle ??? Or can the MSXML.dll be exchanged ? We also wrote a custom COM component. Although this may work it is extremely ugly and destroys the advantages "HTML Applications" have, i.e. portability. Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72062

    - Bluetooth Active Sync. I have a USB Bluetooth device on my PC, which advertises a serial port. I can bond with this using Pocket PC 2003. However, I cannot Active Sync. The error comes up 'Must bond with device with serial port'. I believe it's because my USB Bluetooth is not very good, rather than any error with PPC 2003. Can any member suggest a USB Bluetooth which does allow Active Sync to work? Regards, Ben. Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72061

    - macro funtion error I'm using the follwing macro function: #define MK_RGB5651(R,G,B,R1,B1,G1) \ (__int32) ( ((MAX(0,MIN(255, R1)) << 0x18) & 0xf8000000) | \ ((MAX(0,MIN(255, G1)) << 0x13) & 0x07e00000) | \ ((MAX(0,MIN(255, B1)) << 0xd) & 0x001f0000) | \ ((MAX(0,MIN(255, R)) << 8) & 0x0000f800) | \ ((MAX(0,MIN(255, G)) << 3) & 0x000007e0) | \ ((MAX(0,MIN(255, B)) >> 3) & 0x0000001f) ) R,G,B,R1,B1,G1 are int type. I dunno why the 2 least significant bit of the 32-bit output are always 1s (no matter what my input is). Also, I could not ust decimal 24 instead of hex 0x18 (the same holds for 0x13 and 0xd). Could someone give me pointers to these two problems? Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72057

    - HTML Control and multithreads - DTM_ADDTEXT problem Hi HTML control developers: I have this problem with Html control in Pocket PC 2003 and found a work around. I just want to post so other developers may avoid wasting time debugging. I hope MS mobile team will fix it in next OS update as well (if my theory is true). Symptoms: In Pocket PC 2003: Sending DTM_ADDTEXT with zero terminated ascii string to a HTML control from a different thread. The application may crash/hange after DTM_ENDOFSOURCE is sent. Some time it crash/hange sooner after DTM_ADDTEXT is sent. The same code works just fine if change to DTM_ADDTEXTW (with unicode str), or if the message sender and HTML control in the same thread. Also there is no such problem in Pocket PC 2000 or 2002. Fix: After tens of hours debugging, finally I tried to add 2 or 3 zero to terminate the string being sent in DTM_ADDTEXT, it magically fix the problem. Guessing: I think that HTML control responds to DTM_ADDTEXT by duplicate the string and keep the copy locally to process later, then return to the calling thread immediately. The problem is that HTML control duplicate the ascii string as an unicode string. So if you have only one zero at the end, there are chances that the string being duplicated is too long, and the process will corrupt memory space. Agree or not, but I completly fixed the crashing problem in my app with the trick. Cheers, -Minh Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72052

    - SOAP, XML, over ActiveSync and Wireless? All, I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer to. I am trying to build my first Window CE application targeting Pocket PC 2002 and higher. I want to interact with a Web Service via ActiveSync and WiFi. I need a protocol that will allow me to access the server regardless of the technology being used. I know I can write a provider for ActiveSync, and I'm pretty sure that I can access the web service via WiFi, but I'm interested in the most interoperability and flexability possible. I am creating the "Smart Device Application" in C#. The Web Service will also be running C#. What is the easiest protocol/transport that I can implement that gives cross platform support without requiring different code for each interface being accessed from the CE device. Hope this makes sense. Nick Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72050

    - eVB - Convert string to number for comparison? Hi all, I just need to check and see if a number, stored in a string, is greater than a particular value. I realize that the VAL function isn't supported under embedded VB, but CINT isn't working either, so I must be doing something wrong. Look at this code: If (CInt(lblLabel.Caption) < 8000) Then 'Display an error message MsgBox "The number you scanned is invalid.", vbExclamation, APP_TITLE 'Exit the procedure Exit Sub End If I get an "Overflow: CInt" error. I've tried first declaring seperate string and integer variables to hold the values in and then initializing them: Dim TempCode As Double Dim TempString As String TempString = "1" TempCode = 1 TempString = lblLabel.Caption TempCode = TempString If (CInt(TempCode) < 8000) Then 'Display an error message MsgBox "The number you scanned is invalid.", vbExclamation, APP_TITLE 'Exit the procedure Exit Sub End If But I still get the same error. So what am I doing wrong? How can I check that the value stored in a label, or at least in a string variable, is greater than a given number (> 8000 in this particular case).

    - Losing fullscreen in my property sheet Hi, I use a property sheet in which only the first page is in fullscreen mode. For that, I call SHFullScreen in the OnSetActive and the OnKillActive of the first page. Sometimes, I need to display a MessageBox, but when I click the MessageBox off it makes my fullscreen off too. I tried to use the OnActivate message to restore the fullscreen state but I didn't succeed. It seems messages don't arrive in the order I expect. Does someone know what happens when we close a message box over a property sheet? In which order do the messages arrive? What is the appropriate message to restore the fullscreen mode? I made a lot of tests without success, I really need a clue. Thanks. PS : I use EVC++ 4 and PocketPC 2003 SDK Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 72018

    - Connecting to Internet pass-through on Active Sync I have a problem connecting to Internet when in cradle. I can get Pocket MSIE to work, but not my program.

    - File Transfer Problem Hii Everyone, I got a fundamental problem. I add a file to my project in .net compact C#, and set it to Build Action to Content. The basic objective is when I deploy my solution it uploads the file to the emulator. This works fine. Now when I use a FileStream object to read bytes of from this file I find that my middle bytes have different values then they have on the desktop. For instance value of a byte(213) in the file on the disk is decimal value, 62 and the same byte in my pocket pc application has decimal value 65. Why is this happening? In my pocket pc app I am not doing any thing except use a FileStream object with the path of the file and then I declare a byte array and BinaryReader ReadBytes method to read into my byte array. So when I inspect this byte array i find that the bytes are no longer having the same decimal values. As I gave the e.g. above byte # 213 on the PC has 62 and on the Pocket PC emulator has 65. And this is not for only this byte but many other. The file that I am referring to is a JPG file. Please suggest me what could be wrong and what is the way out? I suspect it has something to do with encoding but I am not sure. Regards, Abhishek Tag: Design issues: predefined fonts Tag: 71977

    - ANSI standard shared math library Does the most recent version of the PPC OS include a shared math library. The original WinCE OS did not include math.h, but did include other parts of the ANSI standard library. I'm wondering if this has changed over the last couple of years.

    - Beaming files/information using bluetooth and infrared I am currently working on a Pocket PC application in C#. I would like to allow the users to beam information from one instance of our program to another instance running on a seperate Pocket PC. Furthermore I would like to let the user select which wireless method to use for the beaming, bluetooth or infrared. The problem is I can't find any in depth information on how to beam files using bluetooth. I know I could use the IrDAClient class for infrared communication, but I would rather have one solution that could use both beaming methods. I have heard about OBEX, and was wondering if anyone could point me to a good reference on using OBEX? Or a reference on how to do this using another technique?

    - eVC++ 4.0 will not install I have been trying to install eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 but keep getting an "insufficient error" message and installation halts. I have unloaded all programs not related to Windows XP. Still get it. How can I get this installed? Do I have to uninstall eVC 3.0 toolkit? If so, why as I need it to develop cross platform!

Hello!

I currently wrote a little today screen item and found out, that I took me
quite an
amount of time to find out the correct font to use when displaying
information on the
screen so that it matches the system plugins.

Does Windows provide appropriate fonts I can use in my applications so
that I do not
need to care about the correct font/size/style/weight?

Thanks in advance,

Christian

So there is indeed no SDK way to keep a consistent style for the today
screen and other parts of the Windows UI?
