    - Thank you all Less than 10 months ago, I was approached to review a palm based solution for home health care. Not being satisfied with what I saw, I decided to write the apps myself. As of Today, The system is on-line and running on T-mobile devices in south eastern michigan and 1 server apps . Just wanted to say thanks to all who posted on this board, as a lot of research took place here. -md Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60740

    - Software turns very slow after a long run, but only sometimes Hi, there, I am using PPC2002 and eVC++3.0. I have designed a software for serial communication. It worked fine for most time. However, occasionally after a long run (usually a couple of hours), the software, as well all other standard software provided by OS, becomes very slow to response the user input. Anybody can help? Any hint? Thanks a lot in advance. John Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60731

    - Calling 'C' Dll in VB 3 I have a 'C' dll which i ported to PocketPC and can successfully call from a PocketPC 'C' application. I am trying to call it in VB 3. The DLL is compiled with _stdcall. In VB it is declared this way: Declare Function KCVersion Lib "KComm.dll" Alias "_KCVersion" ( _ ByRef x As Integer, ByRef y As Integer, ByRef z As Integer) As Integer It accepts 3 int parms and returns an int. The 3 parms are pointers and receive a 3 part version number. When I try to run it on the PocketPC emulator I get the following error: Application Error: Cannot find extension file pvbDecl.dll. Please run setup to restore this file. Anybody know what pvbDecl.dll is? My dll is KComm.dll. Anybody know what's going on here? If I comment out the above Declare, the application loads fine, but obviously doesn't execute the functions. Thanks, Don Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60725

    - Win2000 bridge between 802.11 wireless Ad Hoc network and a wire network Hi chaps, Maybe a FAQ and maybe not the right NG, but I've got a question about this configuration: I've got 4 PCs home 3 of them connected with wire cables and a router. (They work) :) 1 PC has got 2 NICs, 1 wire and 1 wireless 802.11b (It works!) I also got my PDA (dell axim) with a 802.11b adaptor. (Yeah working fine). The PDA and the wireless adaptor on PC are comunicating via Ad Hoc connection, working sound and safe. Right, both networking are working fine, but I cant see the wire network from the wireless one and vice-versa. I know on XP you can use a bridge between the two network connections and get rid of the problem, but Im running under win2000 and I couldnt find any solution. (I've already tried as suggested to enable the internet connection sharing on the wire networking in the PC with 2 NICs, it didnt help at all) Im sure most of you have got the same configuration, so any little help on how to make it working it's very appreciated. Thanks, Dado. Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60722

    - VBScript CLSID under PPC2003 - help needed I have an existing PPC EVC application that makes use of the VBScript engine. When I attempt to run it under PPC2003 it chokes when attempting to get the CLSID using: CLSID clsid; OLECHAR wszProgID[] = OLESTR("VBScript"); HRESULT hr = CLSIDFromProgID(wszProgID, &clsid); ASSERT(SUCCEEDED(hr)); with the error CO_E_CLASSSTRING. I looked in the registry and it seems that it is there. When I manually populate the _GUID CLSID structure and try to CoCreateInstance with it I get REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG so something is definitely wrong. Can anybody shed any light on this? Is VBScripting not implemented or not exposed in PPC2003. Is there something wrong with the way the class is registered? I am stumped... RKM Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60719

    - IrDA bug on iPAQ 39xx Hello, We have a programme which communicates via raw IrDA with another device. It works fine with the iPAQ 36xx and 37xx series. But on the iPAQ 39xx we have serious problems. The iPAQ sends additonal bytes like 0xFF, 0xFC oder 0xFA at the beginning of the communication. Even the simplest example programme HANDLE hCommPort; hCommPort = CreateFile( TEXT( "COM2:" ), GENERIC_WRITE|GENERIC_READ, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL); CloseHandle( hCommPort ); sends one byte to another device. There is no WriteFile or any other communication function used ! The iPAQ 3970 we are using has the actual ROM version 2.10, also the available service pack SP222283 doesn't change this behaviour. Does anybody have the same problem or knows a solution ? Thanks, Winfried Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60676

    - SystemParametersInfo & Idle Timeout on Pocket PC 2003 hi! I'm using the following code in order to read out the idle timeout: UINT dwBatIdleTimeout; SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETBATTERYIDLETIMEOUT, 0, &dwBatIdleTimeout, 0); On Pocket PC 2002 this works fine. On Pocket PC 2003 the function returns TRUE but dwBatIdleTimeout is always 0. I use the following code to set the idle timeout: SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETBATTERYIDLETIMEOUT, /*dwBatTimeout*/3*60, NULL, 0); On Pocket PC 2002 this works fine. On Pocket PC 2003 the function returns FALSE, GetLastError returns 87 - wrong parameter. According to the help, the syntax of SystemParametersInfo is the same on Pocket PC 2002 and Pocket PC 2003. I'm using HP iPAQ 5450 (Pocket PC 2002) and HP iPAQ 5550 (Pocket PC 2003). Any ides how to get and set the idle timeout on Pocket PC 2003?

    - ATL not working. At the following link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp? url=/library/en-us/guide_ppc/htm/pie_activex_jemy.asp regarding "Creating ActiveX Controls for Pocket Internet Explorer on Pocket PC" I found 2 problems: (a) In the section describing "Safe for Scription", IObjectSafetyImpl should be used, it says. The eVC++ Help states that that implementation is not supported. Which is it? (b) In the "Distribution ActiveX Controls", it says: To use an ActiveX control in-house, copy the control to where it will run and then call the regsvrce.exe tool to register the ActiveX control on a Pocket PC device. Where can I get the regsvrce.exe tool? Please give URL. Thanks. Sandeep Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60636

    - Setting SSID using NDIS on pocket PC 2003 Hello all, I'm writing an app. with NDIS wi-fi functionality. I'm able to scan the available hotspots. I need to set a particular SSID using NDISUIO. The setting happens fine, however there is this WLAN manager on my PPC which reverts back to the previous SSID. I used the WZC api for setting the SSID then the set happens fine. Could someone tell me how can I set the SSID using NDIS?? I'm doing the following steps. 1) Scan for available hotspots. 2) Disassociate from current SSID. 3) Set Infrastructure mode 4) Set Auth mode 5) Set SSID. I have a Toshiba pocket PC 2003.

    - Unable to Install/Use PPC 2203 SDK with VB net 2003 Last year I successfully installed & configured the evb3 kit for PPC 2002. For Mobile 2003, Microsoft reccomends developing in .NET, so after reading about options, 1. I bought/installed VB .net 2003 standard. I fired it up, built a simple windows app, but saw no mobile client features. (There was a mobile web item, but my understanding is that is for client/server apps and not for ppc resident applications.) 2. Went back to the web, and researched/found an "SDK" for 2003 which included an emulator. It said Evc4 service pack 2 was a prerequisite. I don't use C, but I downloaded and installed the ev4, and then... 3. downloaded & installed the SDK. I can bring the emulator up with no trouble, but there is still not sign of tools to build mobile 2003 client apps in my visual basic.net application. What am I mising? (Those of you who went with visual studio or those who subsribe to MSDN may not have this problem.) Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60628

    - Copy files to Emulator and Use ActiveX Control and COM Now I'm using VS.NET 2003 c# to develop Applications running in embedded device. I Want to copy files to the WinCE.Net Emulator to debug my program. So I followed the MSDN file ("ms- help://MS.MSDNQTR.2003FEB.2052/dv_evtuv/html/ettskCopyingFi lesToTargetDevice.htm")step by step , but at the step 2 I couldn't find the Network Share icon,and can't go on. And I have developed ActiveX Control and COM by EVC4. Now I want to use them in .NET 2003 C#,but someone tells me that Compact Framework doesn't support COM interrop. That is say, the only way to develop embedded applications with ActiveX and COM is using EVC ? Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60626

    - 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?

    - 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. Thanks in advance Tag: Pocket PC & BlueTooth Development Tag: 60614

    - 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?

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.
