anything i can do?
my ppc consumes web resources. i'm developing in vb.net cf. everything works
100% as expected on the hand-held device. in the emulator, however,
sometimes it can get a web resource...sometimes it can't...sometimes it's
fast...sometimes it takes forever. it does matter whether the web resource
returns a dataset or a primative value like a boolean or integer.
is there anything i can do to make the emulator perform consistantly and w/
reasonable speed?
tia,

Options to avoid 'File Sharing Violaiton'
I'm looking for some ideas or possible options to get
around my Pocket PC Sql Server CE 'File Sharing Violation'
issues. I have 3 separate running processes that could
possibly attempt to connect to the same SSCE database
concurrently. I realize that I'm only allowed a single
connection at a time. Is there any way I can check to see
if it is open by another process/app first before I
attempt to open it and execute my sql? I've tossed around
the idea of creating and deleteing a touch file before and
after a transaction respectively just to indicate if the
db is in use but I'm really hoping somebody has a better
answer.
Thanks,

WCE3.0, RasHangup, null handle
I'm working on a PPC app that runs under Appforge's
MobileVB, and we're getting file corruption. The prime
suspect is a utility DLL in C++ that calls RasDial and
RasHangup. The RasHangup call takes a single HRASCONN
handle; the function that makes the call does not check to
see if the HRASCONN handle is NULL or not. The docs don't
speak of any particular trouble if the handle is NULL;
does anyone know otherwise?
Just in case I'm being especially stupid, I reproduce the
code for the two exported DLL functions in case I'm
missing something obvious. Note that the DLL functions as
expected; it dials and hangs up, and most of the time
everything is great. Then, every now and then, the
database files get screwed and we don't know why...
CODE:
AUTODIAL_DLL_API int dialNeri(int *x)
{
RASDIALPARAMS RasDialParams;
lph = NULL;
memset (&RasDialParams, 0, sizeof (RASDIALPARAMS));
// Configure the RASDIALPARAMS structure.
RasDialParams.dwSize = sizeof (RASDIALPARAMS);
RasDialParams.szPhoneNumber[0] = TEXT('\0');
RasDialParams.szCallbackNumber[0] = TEXT('\0');
wcscpy (RasDialParams.szEntryName, TEXT("NERI"));
wcscpy (RasDialParams.szUserName, TEXT("fred"));
wcscpy (RasDialParams.szPassword, TEXT("fred1"));
wcscpy (RasDialParams.szDomain, TEXT("hamster"));
x[0] = RasDial(NULL,NULL, &RasDialParams, NULL, NULL,
&lph);
return true;
}
AUTODIAL_DLL_API int hangupNeri(int *x)
{
RasHangup(lph);
x[0] = 0;
return true;

File Upload & IE for Pocket PC
Does anyone know of a workaround for the inability to
upload a file from Pocket PC through its version of
Internet Explorer to a web server? I am trying to create
an ASP web application for the Pocket PC which requires
the upload of text/data files from the Pocket PC to a web
server. I've done some searching and have not come up
with much.
Any suggestions, ideas, leads would be greatly
appreciated. I have embedded VB 3.0 & VisualStudio.NET at
my disposal as well if this is something that will help
me accomplish that goal.
Thanks very much in advance for any suggestions.

ASP in Pocket IE
Hi.
I am writing some ASP pages for use in Pocket Internet
Explorer on PocketPC 2003. All is working well except
for the fact that i can't seem to make an <input>
readonly. In IE 6 it works but when i run it up in PIE
the textboxes are still editable. Does anybody know it
is possible to make textboxes readonly in PIE? It is
just standard html and ASP, not asp.net...
Thanks

Memory Leak ?
Hi,
I am developing some app dat loads images and calls new and delete operators
on some pointers.
My application does not report any memory leaks when debugging or give any
other errors.
However, after leaving my application running for a while, WinCE reports
that memory is running low and that I need to close some apps to free up
some memory.
So while it may not be a "memory leak", somehow it is eating more and more
memory.
I do not know how to debug this, other than to monitor the amount of free
memory while my application runs, and then disable parts of my application,
to see which portion is causing the memory hogging.
I forgot how to get the amount of free memory, and winCE dynamically adjusts
the amount of memory used for storage and for volatile memory for running
applications.. so this will make debugging a bit harder.
Anyway, how do I get the amount of free memory? And can anyone else make
suggestions as to how to figure out where memory is being hogged?

Drawing free-form lines via the mouse
I'm currently using a picturebox control to display a bitmap on which I'm
drawing free-form lines that the user creates with the mouse. Currently,
this is done in the MouseMove event of the picturebox control, looking for
the left button. Right now, the drawing is very intermittent, meaning that
if I move the mouse faster than a snail's pace, it doesn't draw
consistently - it leaves gaps. Almost as if the mousemove is too fast for
the event handler to catch. Right now, I'm ONLY using the emulator and the
mouse as I don't have a physical Pocket PC. Is this more an issue with the
emulator or will it appear on the real device as well when I try to draw
free-form lines via the stylus? Is there a better - faster - way to capture
the mouse (stylus) movements and draw a line where the mouse is moving?
Thanks,
