    - Installing Emulator Skins How can I install new emulator skins into eVC4.0? I see plenty of samples of other skins in Windows CE Tools\Common\Platman\sdk\wce420\samples\emulator_skins. But I can?t get any of these choices to appear from eVC4.0 when I select Tools -> Configure Platform Manager -> Properties -> Configure (Startup Server). I have tried copying the skins files (.xml and various .bmp files) to folder under Windows CE Tools\Pocket PC 2003\Emulation where the active skins files are, but the sample skins never appear as a choice.

    - Emulator okay, but device gets nonstop WM_PAINT events Can anyone think of a reason how an application that runs fine on an emulator could receive (what appears to be) an infinite number of WM_PAINT events when running on an actual device? At the moment, I'm debugging in EVT3 targeting a PPC'02 device (Dell Axim x5), but I suspect the same behavior on WM5 emulator vs. device. It's an MFC application written in C++. All dialogs are rock solid except one that includes an OnPaint handler to draw a plot region. Any suggestions for things I could investigate? Thanks, Mike http://pnmx.com/ Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121714

    - Is it possible to register custom SSP on Mobile5 for PIM? Hi All, Recently I was trying to porting an old SSP from PocketPC 2000 to Mobile5 device. The SSP was used to synchronize PIM information (Calendar, Task and Contact) between desktop and device. It was working in the following way on PocketPC 2000: -- 1. First, it register itself as the default service provider for Calendar&Task&Contact objects on the desktop for ActiveSync. ActiveSync was happy to pick up this registration and use my custom SSP instead of the Outlook provider for syncing Calendar&Task&Contact items. -- 2. Then, my custom SSP grab Calendar&Task&Contact information from some custom database through the network and send it down to the device through ActiveSync. -- 3. In the other direction, it also works fine: ActiveSync will pick up changes at runtime on the device and direct my SSP to sync it back to the desktop and finally send back to the database over the network. When I am porting it to Mobile5, I am stuck at step 1 above. It looks like that the ActiveSync Manager ignore my registration for Calendar&Task&Contact object types. The ActiveSync Manager will only use Outlook SSP as the provider for Calendar&Task&Contact and if Outlook is not present, the ActiveSync Manager will just disable the syncing of all Calendar&Task&Contact items! I don't know why this used to work properly in previous version, and suddenly is not supported any more? So my question is: does Mobile5 drop support for 3rd party SSP for the Calendar&Task&Contact PIM items? If anyone else has any luck to find some way to let ActiveSync Manager to recognize custom SSP, can you share your experience? Any information will be greatly appreciated!

    - AddHandler and Late Binding Problems Hi all. I am developing an application for WM 5.0 in VS 2005. The application reads data from XML files and creates dynamic buttons based on that information. Because of this, I need to add even handlers to each of the buttons. However, once I've assigned the event, I need to read information from the button that was pressed. Because of this I'm running into two alternate problems. First, if I leave the signature of the delegated sub as the standard (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) I get an error in the function when I try to call the name of the button saying "The targeted version of the .NET Compact Framework does not support latebinding." So, to fix this, I changed the signature to read (ByVal sender As Button, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) However, once I've done that I get an error telling me that the signatures don't match. To add the handler, I'm using the following code: Dim btn as new Button 'Make changes to button, name it, etc. AddHandler btn.Click, AddressOf RunProcess After that I declare RunProcess as a sub with the standard or modified signature. Private Sub RunProcess(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim sName As String Dim iNumber As Integer sName = sender.Name It's on the last line that the latebinding error occurs. If I change "sender As Object" to "sender as Button" that latebinding error goes away, but the delegate error appears. It feels like a catch 22 to me, but I believe there's got to be a way around this. Thanks for any help! Joshua Wise Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121712

    - again -- setsockopt with paramter TCP_NODELAY does not work with WM5 device My program works in such a way that I would benefit from the TCP_NODELAY option. I read and understand why a developer might not want to enable/disable this setting. This code works on Windows but not on CE. On CE, if I set the value to 1 and read it back, then the value is 8. When using a network analyzer, I can see that this setting has no effect on CE whereas it works perfectly on Windows. Any ideas? int on=944; // any value but 1 or 0 int len = sizeof( on ); getsockopt( Socket, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, (char *)&on, &len ); // on equals 0 on = 1; setsockopt( Socket, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, (char *)&on, sizeof(on) ); int len = sizeof( on ); getsockopt( Socket, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, (char *)&on, &len ); // on equals 1 on Windows, but it equals 8 on CE Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121710

    - Extract Icon in CF 1 Hello I found a superb sample code from Alex Yakhnin for extracting Icons of an exe. http://blog.opennetcf.org/ayakhnin/PermaLink,guid,bf513c4a-f175-4fd0-8334-70dcade80673.aspx Unfortunetly it seems that it is only working with CF 2. Icon.FromHandle is not supported in CF1. Is there any workaround for that, because we dont want to support CF2 yet, because there are still too many smartphones with not enough space for it :-( Thanks a lot James Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121708

    - Scrollbars and CListCtrl I am working with CListCtrl window which has only one column, but I really need to suppress appearance of horizontal scroll bar. I tried to modify window style to remove WS_HSCROLL, but seems that MFC overrides me. For now I am suppressing it by loading data, getting client rectangle and setting column width to client rectangle width. Unfortunately this fails with PocketPC WinMobile 5. There GetClientRect seems to return rectangle that includes scrollbar. This adds a problem of now finding the width of vertical scrollbar, solution to which is not obvious to me. There must be a better way to suppress horizontal scrollbar in CListCtrl. Can someone please point me at it, or at least tell me how to programatically find scroll bar width in CListCtrl.

    - IFormProviderEx Implementation Question Please excuse me if I have selected the wrong group to post my question, I'm happy to relocate somewhere more appropriate if necessary. I've searched through the groups for other posts regarding my question and haven't found the answer. I'm attempting to customize some behavior of the Pocket Outlook (Inbox, tmail.exe, what have you) by implementing IFormProviderEx. I'm specifically interested in being able to provide custom icons for the messages in the listview, which GetMsgStatusIconIndex would seem to allow for. I've followed the sample code (<SDK>\Samples\CPP\Win32\Customform) and have it working in my sandbox project. I can see that the CreateCompostForm and CreateReadForm methods are being called at appropriate times, so I am confident my project and registry settings are configured correctly. (I also see that my FormFactoryEx function and my QueryInterface implementation method is being called.) The problem seems to be that GetMsgStatusIconIndex is not being called. No icons are being displayed in the listview, which is reasonable given my current progress. Any suggestions? =) Also, once GetMsgStatusIconIndex is being called, I am a bit uncertain as to where the icons need to be in order for my index result to be meaningful. I haven't gotten to the point of attempting this, due to my first problem, but my idea is to include my icons as resources in my DLL. If anyone has information on this piece of the puzzle, I'd greatly appreciate that as well. Thank you for your time, please let me know if I can provide further details.

    - ActiveSync Service Provider for custom contacts Hi All, Thanks all in advance.. I am writing a plugin for POOM, adding a custom field in Contacts. This came as a success and could able to do it. But while syncing this additional custom filed is not syncing with the desktop. So I started wtiting an ActiveSync Service for this custom filed. I thought it might be easy. But when I dig further a lot many problems arise. I'm getting the custom field data by calling GetIDsFromNames() and GetItemFromOidEx(). the oid's I'm getting from poomobj->get_oid(). I'm not able to get the required information for populating the OBJTYPEINFO in GetObjTypeInfo(). The CEOID I'm getting in the ObjectNotify is not at all matching with the oid's. I'm stuck up totally and couldn't able to move further. Like to get the information how to implement this feature. Is it possible to do this in WM 5.0? Appreciate for the valid reply. Will be good if aby one can refer somebody who already did this.. Thanking you.. Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121633

    - How the security policies work with pushmail Hi All, I have a couple of questions relating to the device security settings when using Exchange Server pushmail. Firstly, when are the security settings applied? Is it every time a sync is done and a difference is found? If so what is the purpose of the refresh settings time? Secondly, what is the difference between the keys HKLM\Comm\Security\Policy\LASSD\AE\{50C13377.... and HKLM\Comm\Security\LASSD\AE\{50C13377.... As on my device the latter seems to be the one that defines the security behaviour and they currently differ. Thirdly, what AEFrequencyType value would allow me to have an inactivity timeout, as well as lock the device on suspend?

    - Help: Question about TAPI and Modem. Hi, everyone, have a nice day, Sorry to bother you, but I have some question about the use of TAPI. My work is to develop a CSD-trans app on PPC Phone Edition(WM 5 kernel), but actually the PDA is not bought yet: this is because my project manager wanted to reduce the risk of our project and he told me to develop an app using TAPI in windowsXP at first for testing, and the test use TWO normal 56k modem(V.90 OR V.92) and TWO PCs instead of the original TWO GSM Modem, one PDA and one PC. The TAPI is of ver2.0. My question is: 1. In MSDN, I found that TAPI2.0 need UNIMODEM to work and the actual modem must be "Hayes-compatible". I understand what's "Hayes- compatible", but how can I judge whether a modem is "Hayes- compatible" ? Is there some trade-mark or some verification mark or something like this on the modem ? I think the RS232 56k modem must be "Hayes-compatible", am I right ? 2. If I connect the RS232 modem to the PC, how can I make the TAPI to use this modem OR how can the TAPI entity "discover" the modem ? Maybe it's some confusing, let me explain more: when you need to use TAPI ,firstly you may use lineInitialize() to get the total number of TAPI supported device, then negotiate the version of TAPI and so on. Before calling lineInitialize(), there must be some information of modem devices stored at somewhere in the OS, then the lineInitialize() function could be possible to return the information. If what I said is right, how to make the TAPI entity to know there is a modem on the commport ? So after calling lineInitialize() the TAPI entity will found the special modem. 3. Is it possible to translate the app to Windows Mobile without much work ? Is there no question if the normal modems are replaced by the GSM modem (both use hayes AT set)? Thanks your precious help ahead. ^_^ Best Wishes, skovano Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121617

    - ActiveSync disconects other NDIS session We develope MDTV application which recieves DVBH TV transmition and enables video players to show the MDTV broadcast. Our device driver acts as NDIS miniport which sends IP/UDP packets recieved from the MDTV modem and put it in the device IP stack. Out system works fine as long as the active sync is not working, but as the device placed in the cradel, and active sync starts - no more UDP packets are recieved although the driver itself keeps working as usual. After the device is off the cradel, the player application can reopen a socket and the packets keep coming. Killing the ConnMgr process solves the problem, both active sync and MDTV are working at the same time but this ofcourse can't be a solution for the end user. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    - Formatting Information I'm currently writing an app that has a lot of text based information, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to display and format this text. The text is supposed to be stored in a database and my app will read the text from that database and then format it appropriately within the PDA. This is the part I'm having trouble with - the fact that the text is dynamic and my WindowsForm has to adapt to it. Say I have the following (using HTML): <h2>Some Title</h2> <br> <b>Sub title: </b> <li>List item one</li> <li>List item two</li> <li>Sub list item two</li> <li>List item three</li> How can I format all of this information using standard WindowsForms controls? Do I just build a bunch of Windows.Forms.Labels and drop the text in? Would I be better off using real HTML (hosted on the PDA, not web) and loading it into the WebBrowser control?

When I am installing my cab files on the WM5 device, I am being prompted to, "Choose a location to install <cab name>", with options for "Device", "\SD Card", and "\Flash File Store". How do I get the cab files to tell the installer that I don't want to be prompted, that I know the destination location. The DestinationDirs are set in the inf file that created the cab files. My hardware is Intermec 761 (old) and the Intermec CN3 (new), if that makes any difference. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks. Carlos Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121577

    - Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Hi all, I've got an application developed for PocketPC 2003 where a service registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\ is loaded trough the function ActivateService. Now I have to translate and re-compile in VS2005 in order to execute it on a Windows Mobile 5.0 device. I've tryed using ActivateService, RegisterService and GetServiceHandle (even it's deprecated since WM5.0) from setup.dll's Install_Init and Install_Exit functions, but none of them work. In fact, none of the functions xxx_Init, xxx_Open, etc. are being called. The registry entry actually exists at the very moment I try any of those functions but, as they always fail, the installation can not complete and that registry entry disappears. What else can I do? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121570

    - localization Hi, My method for localizing app was to create seperate resource dll's, (dll containing only resources, like dialog and string resource), then dynamically load the correct resouce file during execution. However, in my IDE, I can't even type cyrillic or chinese characters (characters show up as ?) into the resource editor. Visual Studio doesn't like unicode resource files either. Currently, I'm loading my strings from XML file, but this doesn't work well. For example, on SmartPhone, when you change the regional settings, the language changes on your device immediately, and all (built-in) apps, and not only that, even the names of applications (shortcuts) change! Now, how does this work? I'm guessing the application has multiple string table resources, each for a different code page, and OS selects the match one? The resource editor only provides like 4 languages for your resource files though, english, german, french, local and neutral I think.. Can someone tell me how built-in apps have their shortcut names localized to whichever language the user selects? Lisa Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121562

    - File transfers between PC <> PocketPC In an application I work on I will exchange some data files when the Pocket PC is cradled. I will use RAPI from the desktop to copy files between PPC and desktop. I know about other ways to exchange data like using webservices, RDA etc but for this application it will be done by simple file transfer using RAPI. What happens is the following: 1) The desktop user start the the transfer process form the desktop application. 2) PPC application need to export some of the data from the application to a file. This is done either by the user pushing a transfer option in the PPC application or a program is started on the PPC by using RAPI. 3) Desktop application copy the exported file from 2) to Dekstop and process data 4) Desktop application copy files with data to be imported on the PPC (possibly changed lookup tables) 5) PPC application import the new files into the database. Step 5 could be done when the PPC application starts but the way this application will be run it might be that the application is still running. If I choose the option to have the user start the transfer process then it is pretty simple. Just wait for new files to be created then process them and reload the datasets. However when two processes are running and especially like this when on two separate computers it do raise some possible problems. One computer does not know how when a process has finished or not, but you can of course check for created files or having the desktop computer to write to registry when process is finished or something. But still, you need to be prepared for communication failures etc. I could probably also use the OpenNetCF filewatcher class to react when new files to process have arrived on the PPC. However, it would be best if the entire syncronization process could be initiated from the desktop application without the user having to do anything on the PPC. This should not be that hard to do, the desktop program could launch a separate program on the PPC using RAPI which exports and imports data. That seems like a clean and user friendly way to do it. However there is one problem that remains to be solved. If the PPC application is still running I need to either close it or to use some interprocess communication method (openNetCF?) to tell the application to refresh datasets etc. Questions: 1) Which method would you choose? Using a seperate program on PPC to export/improt data or have the user start the transfer process in the application? Any other betetr mthods to do this? 2) Can you show me some example shwo to use IPC with .NEt compact? Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121552

    - How to scroll a bitmap inside a today screen plugin? Hello! I have a problem creating a window with a vertical scroll bar. Here's what I try to do: HWND InitializeCustomItem(.... ....... g_hWnd = CreateWindow(appName, appName, WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | WS_VSCROLL, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 240, 0, hwndParent, NULL, g_hInst, NULL) ; SCROLLINFO si; ZeroMemory(&si, sizeof(si)); si.cbSize = sizeof(si); si.fMask = SIF_POS | SIF_PAGE | SIF_RANGE | SIF_DISABLENOSCROLL; si.nPos = 50; si.nPage = 100; si.nMin = 0; si.nMax = appHeight; SetScrollInfo(g_hWnd, SB_VERT, &si, TRUE); . SetWindowLong(g_hWnd, GWL_WNDPROC, (LONG) WndProc); .... } LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND hwnd, UINT uimessage, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { ..... I set appHeight to 120 at the beginning. In response to WM_TODAYCUSTOM_QUERYREFRESHCACHE , I set the ptli->cyp to appHeight and return true (only once, of course, except for resizes) Later I create a bitmap: case WM_CREATE: { if (!done_once) { hBitmap = Test_NewDIBSection(appWidth, / *appHeight*/480, (void **) &bitmapa); hDC = GetDC(hwnd); hDCMem = CreateCompatibleDC(hDC); hOldBitmap = (HBITMAP) SelectObject(hDCMem, hBitmap); done_once = true; } .... } which works fine, however this bitmap is limited to the appHeight size, while I would very much like to scroll it down to see more. My window's scroll bar appears, but it doesn't move, as if everything there is to see is already shown. Also, the main today screen scroll bar appears if necessary - and it works fine, scrolling my bitmap, but unfortunately I need the internal scroll bar. I understand that I can probably do it manually by responding to WM_VSCROLL messages, but I doubt it would be as effective as a pro- made scrolling. Does anybody know (probably most do :-( ), how can I scroll my bitmap? I'm pretty sure that a smooth way to do it exists, but I am simply missing something and have no idea, what it might be. Thanks for any help! gegitor Tag: Mobile Device Center conflict resolution Tag: 121547

    - Microphone sensitivity. I need to lower the microphone gain. My audio codec is clipping becouse of incoming PCM samples saturated from the mic. I don't need AGC becouse it doesn't work well with my app. I just need to manipulate the mic gain via software. Is there a way to do it? I'm using waveform audio api ti capture sounds. Thanks.

We're desperately in need of a solution for a Vista change that breaks
our service provider. WMDC has limited conflict resolution choices to
replace on desktop or device. This wrecks havoc on our service
provider since we relied on the ignore option which gave us a
workaround to implement mutual modifications. Is there any way to get
back to the old behavior?
