    - Has anybody created a custom Directshow filter on windows mobile 5.0 PPC? Hi, Is there anybody who is able to successfully run a custom filter on Windows Mobile 5.0? I have certain directshow filters on Win2000, which I have to port to Windows Mobile 5.0. I created a "Smart Device Win32 Dll application" (Windows Mobile 5.0 PPC) on VS2005. I created an empty project and added a .cpp and a .def file and added the filter code. The code I used is similar to the one given by Gary Daniels at: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.smartphone.developer/browse_thread/thread/c9a4b3a393d4aa8a/9a025c9c22b01105?lnk=st&q=CNullRend&rnum=1 When I try to register it (using regsvrce), it fails at DECLARE_IUNKNOWN insided CNullRend Class definition. When I replaced the DECLARE_IUNKNOWN macro with the expansion: STDMETHODIMP QueryInterface(REFIID riid, void **ppv) { return GetOwner()->QueryInterface(riid,ppv); }; STDMETHODIMP_(ULONG) AddRef() { return GetOwner()->AddRef(); }; STDMETHODIMP_(ULONG) Release() { return GetOwner()->Release(); }; I found that it fails at return GetOwner()->AddRef(); with the error: "Unhandled exception at 0x013c12e0 in regsvrce.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000001." The same is the case with any directshow filter I try to register on WM5.0.

    - Memory limit reached with Windows Mobile Hello, We are currently having memory issues with our Pocket PC application. We are using PsionTeklogix WorkAbout Pro devices with Windows Mobile 2003 and the Compact Framework 1.0 SP3. The device has 95.80 Mb of RAM, 30 Mb of ROM and a 512 Mb SD-Card. Most of our application is loaded directly from the SD-Card. The limitations we have experienced are the following: - 25 Mb per process - 12 Mb for the DLLs (independently from the number of processes) - DLLs can only be loaded in the "first" 12 Mb of each process For example: 1. If a process loads 4 Mb of DLLs, then 8 Mb of data, he can no longer load DLLs, but can still load data. A second process launched in parallel will be able to load a maximum 8 Mb of new DLLs, then data. 2. If a process loads 12 Mb of data, it can no longer load a single DLL. What happens in our application is that at some point we reach the 12 Mb limit and every attempt at loading a library after that fails. Such behaviour is described here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms836325.aspx "Now consider what to do if you encounter a potential problem. Suppose Process 2 loaded DLL C that was quite large as shown in Figure 6. Note that process 3 has the bad luck of being both a large .exe file and loading a DLL after process 2 had loaded its rather immense DLL C. Clearly, process 3 is close to trouble if it attempted to load any more DLLs that had not been loaded already by other processes. This is a somewhat contrived example because the size of DLL C would have to be incredibly large, or Process 2 would have to load a large number of DLLs for this problem to occur naturally." We do have a large number of DLLs, some of which are quite large and the previous example is no longer contrived in our case. To avoid the problem, we tried several approaches: - Free some memory in the critical 12 Mb area when we need to load a new DLL o The compact framework doesn't seem to free the memory for native DLLs, but only for its own future use. o We tried to artificially create 12 Mb of data before loading our real data, and then free the 12 Mb of artificial data to restore some free memory in the critical memory space, but no new DLL could be loaded afterwards. o We even tried to broadcast a WM_HIBERNATE message to force the Compact Framework to free some memory, but in vain. - Migrate our application to Windows Mobile 2005 and the Compact Framework 2.0 o We had the same memory issues. - Split our application in several processes. o We still reach the 12 Mb limit for the DLLs, no matter how many processes are involved. o Loading our DLLs in a separate process doesn't change the behaviour. - Load all our DLLs before loading data. o This approach has been quite successful so far. o We still have some issues with several functionalities such as HTTPS WebService calls, which fail if the very first call is made when the memory has already passed the 12 Mb limit: "System.Net.WebException - Could not establish secure channel for SSL/ TLS". Is there something to pre-load so that our HTTPS call will already have its requirements loaded before the memory has passed the 12 Mb limit? Did we miss something in our understanding of how memory is managed in Windows Mobile 2003? Our application requires more than 12 Mb of memory (most of which is data and C# .Net libraries), and needs to be able to load new DLLs at all time, what would you recommend in this situation? Thank you in advance, Sincerely, -- Patrick AVENEL Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119341

    - Unloading SSP's in WMDC Previously, you could always run the command wcesmgr.exe /quit in order to force an SSP to unload. With WMDC, there is no /quit command to unload your SSP. So how do you get unloaded so you can update your SSP binaries? Via Restart Manager. Vista's new Restart Manager enables you to make a request to apps to unload during installs. It provides a way to get any app to uninstall, regardless of whether or not in provides /quit switches. We do hear you loud and clear that using a command line with a switch is MUCH easier than the Restart Manager API set. We are working on replacing this. However, in the meanwhile, for those of you who need to unload their SSP's, here is some sample code. -- Kyle Lampe Lead Software Design Engineer ActiveSync Windows Mobile This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

    - WMDC developer doc badly needed... Has anyone come across useful information about upgrading ActiveSync service providers (SSP) to make them compatible with WMDC/Vista? In one single instance, I was able to synchronize all my custom data via my service providers (upon creating a partnership). That was on a clean Vista Premium laptop with WMDC freshly downloded and installed (I don't know the WMDC build back then, on Feb 2). All my data flawlessly synchronized from my PPC to that laptop. Boy, was I happy... But that was short-lived. For some reasons, at this moment, none of my custom data synchronizes. In fact, I experience all sorts of issues (e.g. WMDC crashing, not synchronizing, etc) when my service providers are activated on the device (i.e. synchronization registry entries set). I've tried re-creating partnerships, re-downloading/re-installing WMDC, shutting down anti-virus/firewall, using WM 2003, SE and 5.0 devices, etc. Same exact results. All I can say at the moment is that my sync providers do not work under Vista/WMDC, whereas they've been working fine on XP for 3+ years. Any pointer to a WMDC service provider ref guide/doc/info/tip/help would be immensely welcome. That's a critical issue for me (i.e. our customes) at the moment.

    - Automatic configuration of wi-lan settings Hi, Just shipped 200 pocket pcs to a customer who now wants to know if we can configure the network on the ppc programatically. When the ppcs lose battery, the wifi card driver gets lost and all the network settings go with it. User on the ground isn't going to want to mess around with network SSIDs and encryption keys. I checked the registry before and after installation and there are a small number of new keys but - and this doesn't surprise me - it looks like the wireless settings are encrypted. Have just tried stuffing these settings into an unsuspecting ppc and it's now dead. Any suggestions? Maybe I should try the wifi card vendor. Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119313

    - Unique Device IDs for older Pocket PCs I would like to develop a means to generate a unique ID for licensing purposes for as wide a range of Pocket PCs as possible. I know that the really ancient Pocket PCs did not have hardwired device IDs, but what about the others? I have seen two methods discussed in this forum. One is calling: KernelIoControl(IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID,... The other method is calling: GetDeviceUniqueID(); The second method is an API that is only available under WM5, but I can certainly use it on Pocket PCs of that type. The first method, according to riki's posting (Sun, 18 Feb 2007 18:57:20 -0800) is a "priviledged API, so you might run into issues on some devices". Now here is what I have found on some Pocket PCs: 1. On an iPAQ rx1955 (WM 5.1.1702 Build 14367.1.0.2), the KernelIoControl method works fine and gives me the same ID that is shown as the "UUID" in the Asset Viewer under Settings. My application is unsigned and so is as un-priviledged as you can get, so I am confused as to why it worked, despite riki's warning. 2. On a Dell Axim, pre-2003 (WinCE 3.0.11171 Build 11178). the call to KernelIoControl returns FALSE. And of course GetDeviceUniqueID is out of the question on this old OS. But there is a UUID shown under Settings, System Information. Is there any way I can get that ID in my application? 3. On an iPAQ 3635 (WinCE 3.0.9348 Build 9616), KernelIoControl also returns FALSE. There is no UUID shown under System Information, but there is a "Asset Tag" and a "Serial Number" that are shown, and they are both the same 12-character alphanumeric string. Is there any way I can get that ID? It is OK if I have to exclude the old iPAQ (made in 2001). But there are a lot of Axims out there and some of them have not been upgraded to PPC 2003. I would like to support everything back to 2002. Robert Scott Ypsilanti, Michigan Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119309

    - Sim Contacts from OID I created a native DLL that adds a context menu to contacts app of WM5 by implementing IContextMenu (Credit goes to kind hearted people in this group). The OID of the contact that user selected is retrieved using ItemRefArray. I pass this OID to a c# application to display the contact details using POOM. But as POOM does not support Sim Contacts, I am not able to determine which contact the user selected. OpenNETCF supports retrieving SimContacts, but not with OID. So my problem is how to retrieve the Sim Contact details from it's OID ? Even if not available in C#, a native method will do... Pls Help... Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119299

    - How to monitor performance of an application. Hello All, I am a newbie to Windows Mobile development!!! At present I am trying to develop a program that monitors the performance of an application. The kind of information I am interested in is the CPU/Process/Thread and memory performance. Specifically, I would like to track the following CPU usage Used Memory on Phone Free Memory on Phone Number of Processes running Number of threads running Number of Filehandles currently open Memory used by a process/thread Process/Thread CPU activity. I have looked at the MSDN and searched on the web for some appropriate API for this, but have had no real success. The closest thing I have come to is the pdh library, but I don't think there's a version available for Windows Mobile. Help!!!!! Can anyone help me, or direct me to the appriopriate API's so I can get the above information? Does anyone have any other sugestions on what else I could monitor for a running application? Does anyone have any example code they can direct me to? I am writing this in C++. Many thanks in advance, Richard Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119252

    - Menus Hello I'm trying to create my menus with CreateMenu() and CreatePopupMenu() and add them to the OK and Help (buttons/menus) (Windows Mobile 5.0). The problem is that i have the handle only in WM_INITMENUPOPUP HMENU hmenuPopup = (HMENU) wParam; Now if i use AppendMenu to add submenus to this hmenuPopup everything is ok, but if i add a submenu that pops another submenu with : AppendMenu (hmenuPopup, MF_STRING | MF_ENABLED | MF_POPUP, (UINT)hSuperMenu, TEXT("T&hemes")); and then click on that submenu to open its level2 popup, i will receive the WM_INITMENUPOPUP and i enter an infinite cycle. The reason why i don't wanna use the Resource Editor to build my menu is that i only managed to use TrackPopupMenu() is like this : // Show PopupMenu hGrrrr = LoadMenu(g_hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_MENU)); hContextMenu = GetSubMenu(hGrrrr, 0); TrackPopupMenu(hContextMenu, TPM_LEFTALIGN, 30, 100, 0, hwndGlobal, NULL); Fix to problem 1 fixes 2 or a fix to problem 2 fixes 1.

    - problem in playing mp3 file Hi All, I'm trying to play an .mp3 file using DirectShow on Windows Mobile 5.0.The RenderFile() which works fine for .wav is failing (-2147220970,VFW_E_NOT_FOUND)for .mp3 file. Now im trying to manually connect the filters in the following order. Source filter->>DMO Decoder->>Renderer filter. But the Connect() is returning a -ve value,-2147220969 (VFW_E_CANNOT_CONNECT, No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection. ). it returns this even for decoder to renderer connection also.. SOURCE CODE: This the code used instead of RenderFile(): res =pGraph->AddSourceFilter(L"\ \Cuppy_Cake_Song.mp3",_T("Source"),&pSource); res = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_DMOWrapperFilter, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC, IID_IBaseFilter, (void **)&pAudioTransform); // Initialize the Audio DMO Wrapper res = pAudioTransform->QueryInterface(&pAudioWrapperFilter); res = pAudioWrapperFilter->Init(CLSID_DMODECODER, DMOCATEGORY_AUDIO_DECODER); res =pGraph->AddFilter (pAudioTransform, L"AUDIO DMO Decoder"); IPin *pSourceOut = GetOutPin(pSource, 0); IPin *pGrabIn = GetInPin(pAudioTransform, 0); // the below function, Connect, returns a -ve value, -2147220969 res = pGraph->Connect(pSourceOut, pGrabIn); res = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_MobileAuRenderer, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC,IID_IBaseFilter, (void**)&pAR); res = pGraph->AddFilter(pAR,_T("Audio Renderer")); IPin *pPSource = GetOutPin(pAudioTransform, 0); IPin *pGrab = GetInPin(pAR, 0); // the Connect also , returns a -ve value, -2147220969 res = pGraph->Connect(pPSource, pGrab); //this used instead of Connect(), returns an E_FAIL /*res = pCapGraphBuilder->RenderStream( &PIN_CATEGORY_CAPTURE, &MEDIATYPE_Audio, pSource, pAudioTransform, pAR);*/ 1) Is Connect() the correct function to connect even a DMO wrapper filter and an ordinary filter or should I use some other function.? 2) When i render the .mp3 file in GraphEdit, in the graph, it shows MPEG-1 (Stream) Splitter also. MPEG-1 (Stream) Splitter is not supported by Win Mobile. Is MPEG-1 (Stream) Splitter necessary to play even an mp3 file(which is just an audio file)? Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119245

    - Require Info on EAP extension development for windows mobile Hi, We are developing an EAP module for the Windows Mobile 5.0 as per the documentation provided at the MSDN site for the EAP extension development. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa363504.aspx We succeeded in writing the whole EAP module. The whole EAP authentication goes through well with the AAA server(RADIUS) with the extension dll we wrote and we finally receive the outer EAP success, sent as part of the Access-Accept from RADIUS, which indicates the EAP authentication has succeeded. Now as per the documentation in MSDN, we are supposed to pass the MPPE-Send key and MPPE-Recv Key from the RasEapMakeMessage function using the pUserAttributes member of the pEapOutput structure in the final step. These keys are supposed to be used in the EAPOL module in the 4way handshake for the WPA MSK derivation. But its not much clear on how the pUserAttributes is to be filled with these keys. We filled in the pUserAttributes pointer from what we can make out from the following MSDN link in the Remarks section at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa363518.aspx . and another section that appears in the EAP Host documentation for Windows Vista and XP on how MPPE keys are to be handled at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa363636.aspx, which we think might also be relevant for the EAP extension development. But they don't seem to work. We tried a lot of combinations but nothing seems to work. When we sniffed/traced on Access Point's logs the supplicant doesn't seem to respond to the EAPOL key request at all as part of the 4 way handshake for the WPA key(MSK) generation. There is int much help at the MSDN apart from the above. The following is the code peice on how we filled in the fields, can anyone check if the code and tell what is wrong with this and the correct way of doing it The excerpts from the code is as follows: typedef unsigned char u8; struct vsa { u8 attr_type; u8 length; u8 salt[2]; u8 lenofkey; u8 value[32]; u8 padding[15]; }; struct vsa mppe_send_key, mppe_recv_key; char *pos = NULL; // 1-MPPE-Send Key, 1-MPPE-Recv Key, 1-raatMinimum(for termination) lenofuserattr = 3 * sizeof(RAS_AUTH_ATTRIBUTE); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes = (RAS_AUTH_ATTRIBUTE *) malloc(lenofuserattr); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes; memset(pos, 0, lenofuserattr); /* As per MSDN 52 for the sub-attribute AVP which would hold the MPPE keys 4 for Vendor-Id(311 for Microsoft) */ lenofvalue = 52 + 4; //MPPE-RECV-KEY pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].raaType = (raatVendorSpecific); //ras auth attribute type (VSA) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].dwLength = (lenofvalue); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].Value = (u8 *) malloc( sizeof(u8) * (lenofvalue) ); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].Value; memset(pos, 0, lenofvalue); vid= ntohl(311); memcpy(pos, &vid, 4); pos += 4; mppe_recv_key.attr_type = 17;//Type MPPE-Recv-Key mppe_recv_key.length = 52; //Total AVP length mppe_recv_key.salt[0] = 0x00; mppe_recv_key.salt[1] = 0x00; mppe_recv_key.lenofkey = 32; // Key length only // The second 32 bits of the buffer 'mppe_keys' is the MPPE-Recv key memcpy(mppe_recv_key.value, mppe_keys + 32, 32);//MPPE-Recv Key memset(mppe_recv_key.padding, 0, 15); //padding memcpy(pos, &mppe_recv_key, sizeof(struct vsa)); //sizeof(struct vsa) is equal to 52 //MPPE-SEND-KEY pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].raaType = (raatVendorSpecific); //ras auth attribute type (VSA) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].dwLength = (lenofvalue);//4 - Vendor-Id pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].Value = (u8 *) malloc( sizeof(u8) * (lenofvalue)); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].Value; memset(pos, 0, lenofvalue); vid= ntohl(311); memcpy(pos, &vid, 4); pos += 4; mppe_send_key.attr_type = 16; //Type MPPE-Send-Key mppe_send_key.length = 52; //Total AVP length mppe_send_key.salt[0] = 0x00; mppe_send_key.salt[1] = 0x00; mppe_send_key.lenofkey = 32; // Key length only // The first 32 bits of the buffer 'mppe_keys' is the MPPE-Send key memcpy(mppe_send_key.value, mppe_keys, 32); //MPPE-Send-Key memset(mppe_send_key.padding, 0, 15); // Padding memcpy(pos, &mppe_send_key, 52); //Terminate with raat Minimum pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].raaType = (raatMinimum); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].dwLength = (0); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].Value = NULL; Thanks, Vijay Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119226

    - Does ActiveSync use unimodem?? Hi, I am using a WinCE device over which I am running a Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking(DUN) application. On my PC(which is WinXP), I am using Activesync 4.5(beta) to connect to this device over USB cable. But, at first it seemed I couldn't simulataneously do both i.e. Connect ActiveSync as well as use the DUN application.This was because DUN uses "unimodem.dll" as the TSP and it seems that Activesync also does the same. But, then I tried changing the "devicetype" associated with DUN application on my WinCE device. This worked!! My question is: 1.Does ActiveSync really need unimodem??I mean how exactly are the two related? 2.What if I need the "devicetype" as ZERO(i.e. NULL Modem) for my DUN application on device side??At present, this does not work. The registry entries on my device side were: (The case where Activesync and DUN can't work together..DeviceType is ZERO here) [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\My_Serial0] "FriendlyName"="Serial_Port_For_Bluetooth_Modem" "DeviceType"=dword:0 "Tsp"="Unimodem.dll" "Order"=dword:F4 "BtProf"="DUN" "Prefix"="COM" "Dll"="btserial.dll" "Index"=dword:6 (The case where BOTH work together..DeviceType is 9 here, an arbitrary value!)

    - Permanent Storage Advice needed. I have a HP PDA running PPC2003 and its permanent storage is called "iPAQ File Store", I also have an Acer n50 PDA running PPC2003 and its ts permanent storage is called "ROM Storage". I also have another HP PDA running WM2005 and it has persistent storage so I dont need to use the 'permanent storage' like the older versions. My issue is that I have created an Autorun program which resides in the 2577 folder of the HP PDA running PPC2003. It copies my exe from flash to normal memory in case of a hard reset but it is dependent on the path "iPAQ File Store" - I do not have the financial resources to buy every type of PDA so does any one know all the different names used for 'permanent storage' for all makes of PDAs so I can tailor my Autorun.exe to each device? OR would I be better to not worrk about this issue and advise all customers to run my software on WM2005 devices which have persistent storage?

    - evc4 CreateThread memory leak question Hi All I have a memory leak problem in my app and I think this is probably what is causing it but i'm not 100% sure, also if it is how to fix it! Please bear with me as I'm not an expert C programmer !! The following function is called on a 5 second SetTimer from the main thread .... VOID CALLBACK UpdateCountsRequestTimerProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, UINT iTimerID, DWORD dwTime){ SessionPacket* pSessionPacket = new SessionPacket; memset(pSessionPacket,0,sizeof(SessionPacket)); TCHAR szSession[11]; g_SessionDetails.GetCombDaySess(szSession,10); wcstombs(pSessionPacket->Session,szSession,10); pSessionPacket->iPacketNum=g_PacketCounter++; pSessionPacket->iErrorStatus=-2; //-2 = requesting session counters HANDLE hThread=CreateThread (NULL, 0, SendCounterDataThread, (PVOID)pSessionPacket, 0, NULL); CloseHandle(hThread); } As you can see pSessionPacket is a local object that is being passed to a 2nd thread "SendCounterDataThread" this thread calls "delete pArg;" to delete the object when it's done. Now I'm suspecting I've got something wrong here as when the function UpdateCountsRequestTimerProc ends in the main the value of pSessionPacket is discarded could this be my problem in that "delete pArg;" then can't delete the object ? I've put a routine in that calls GlobalMemoryStatus(&memInfo); I can see that memInfo.dwTotalPhys - memInfo.dwAvailPhys goes up and down by 4096 bytes BUT NOT (down) every time. so the nett effect is I am 'leaking' 4096 bytes about every 6-10 calls of UpdateCountsRequestTimerProc If I am correct in what I have done wrong then ....... I did think of making the pointer static BUT on the next call to UpdateCountsRequestTimerProc in the main thread the previous SendCounterDataThread may not have finished ... and I don't want to have to 'wait' for it Thanks in advance for an advise Kind Regards Andrew Tag: Get Path of installed Program Tag: 119197

Amit answered your actual question. This is an addendum.

Windows CE, and all platforms based on it, has no real concept of
"current directory". That means we really need to use full paths at
all times. I'm surprised the GetCurrentDirectory function even exists.
