    - HPC/Windows CE .Net Question Hi all, I have an existing application for the Pocket PC built in eVB. I have been asked to look into porting this application to an HPC that runs Windows CE 4.2 .Net. Are there eVB runtimes in that OS? If not can they be downloaded? What SDK would I need for eVB so that I can compile for that OS/chip combo? Thanks for any help! Steve Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79987

    - Using Visual C++ 7 instead of eVC++ 4 Hi, I've been using embedded Visual C++ for a while now, and I also have Visual Studio .NET (not sure which version, I got it from school for Imagine Cup, I found that it's possible to make apps for CF in VS.NET, using C# and VB.NET atleast), but is it possible to use it instead of eVC++? The reason I want to do this, is that I'm working on a project for both Win32 and PocketPC platform. Would make it alot easier just to change which platform I want to compile to, instead of having two projects, in two different programs... I tried in VC++ to add a configuration in options for it, but the only platform that's listed is "Win32". (I'm downloading SP3 for eVC right now, gonna see if that changes anything). Anyone have any experience or ideas about this? Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79975

    - SQL CE Select Problem I am trying to make a function check if a record exits and if so, collect some data from it.

The message boxes that are shown are : A1, A3, and B. So I think there is an error in the line after MsgBox("B"). I have the if statement to check for a null because User can be (and is currently) a null. This may seem like a dumb question, but what is the method of database interaction that I am using called? I don't think it is ADOCE or RDA. Trying to search on google is very difficult since I don't know the name. The Microsft tutorial I used just went right into the examples and didn't say. I think I'm confusing myself by reading articles for different methods. Thanks for the help. Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79954

    - PocketPC 2002/2003, Flash, Linux, MySQL I asked about this a little while ago, on a few newsgroups but time got in my way and I need to discuss it further before I can make a choice in developmental direction ... Please also note I am not an expert Flash developer, nor am I in any way expert in other web technologies ... I have a project that has the following outline goals:- - PocketPC ++ Flash 6 player - Flash application is interface to a database - let's say it's a contact database - user can query and update the database via Flash database - Database synchronises/replicates/whatever you want to call it with parent database on Linux serve running Apache and MySQL on demand or on daily synch as per user desire I am tying to establish what will be the best combination of technologies... the hardest part appears to be finding a way to synchronise the local database with the parent on the Linux server. Apparently if I could use Windows server and SQL Server it would 'just work' but that is not an option at all. So things that have come up include:- PocketPC interface over eVB shell PocketPC interface over eVC shell PocketPC interface over c# .net shell -- Which is more likely to succeed? -- Which is most accessible to someone who knows none of these development tools? eVB and winsock was also suggested to me, but I have little idea what that means ... I found some tools on a search that might enable synchronisation with the server but nothing that was supporting Linux/MySQL. This was the closest, but I contacted them and was told they decided not to support Linux after all dbBridge :- http://www.dbbridge.com/dbbridge/dbbridgehome.htm This looks promising, but I am still waiting for a response to see if I could put a Flash interface to it HanDBase Enterprise Edition 3.0i http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=5126 And this looks hopeful if I go the .net route ... and apparently it should work with the pocket .net framework.

    - CM_ProxyEntries I am trying to configure a proxy server for use with connection manager. I see that you enter proxy entries using the CM_ProxyEntries CSP. The CM_ProxyEntries takes a source and detination GUIDs. Are these GUIDs CM_Network guids? Or are they CM_GPRS, CM_NetEntry, etc... I am unclear on what the source to destination mapping is doing. Doesn't the CM_Proxy add a proxy server to the CM_Network connection, that connection then uses that to push out to the internet through the proxy server? Why do I need to specify another GUID/connection? Thanks, Jon Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79931

    - How to create Menubar with Toolbar? PPC2003 Hello all, I've been trying to figure out for days on how to create a menu bar with a toolbar of icons. I figured out how to add a menu resource using the following code: memset(pMenuBar,0,sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO)); pMenuBar->cbSize = sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO); pMenuBar->hwndParent = hWnd; pMenuBar->dwFlags = SHCMBF_HMENU; pMenuBar->hInstRes = hInstance; pMenuBar->nToolBarId = IDR_mnuNSMenu; SHCreateMenuBar(pMenuBar); This works just fine and displays my menu, but I need to add some icons (like in pocket word). I tried setting the other members of the SHMEUBARINFO which are cBmpImages, nBmpId but nothing happens. If anybody has any good source that incorporates a toolbar with menu items like in pocket word please let me know. Again, I'm using Pocket PC 2003 and any source i've seen that is out there is in Pocket PC 2002 or earlier. Also I'm NOT USING MFC. Thanks, Geno Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79915

    - How to control the volume in a application Hi, I want to control the volume value in my application. (When I push the volume up button in my application, then the real volume of the pocketPC should also change.) I tried changing the volume registry value under "ControlPanel\\Volume" And after change the volume value and call 'AudioUpdateFromRegistry' in the coredll.dll. Someone says it would work. But 'AudioUpdateFromRegistry' doesn't work. The change in volume value is reflected only after I reset the PocketPC Device. Is there any key points I missing? Or any other methods? My code is like this below ==================================================== HKEY hKey = NULL; RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, _T("ControlPanel\\Volume"), 0, 0, &hKey); if (hKey) { DWORD cbData,dwType; DWORD dwValue = 0; if(ERROR_SUCCESS == RegQueryValueEx(hKey, _T("Volume"),0, &dwType ,(LPBYTE)&dwValue, &cbData)) { if (m_bVolumeSet) { if(dwValue < 0x99999999) { m_SystemVolume = dwValue; dwValue = 0x99999999; } } else { dwValue = m_SystemVolume; } RegSetValueEx(hKey, _T("Volume"), 0, dwType, (LPBYTE)&dwValue, cbData); RegCloseKey(hKey); typedef void (* Function)(void); Function lpfnFunc = NULL; HINSTANCE hCoreDll = LoadLibrary(TEXT("coredll.dll")); if (hCoreDll) { lpfnFunc = (Function)GetProcAddress(hCoreDll, _T("AudioUpdateFromRegistry")); if (lpfnFunc) { (lpfnFunc)(); } FreeLibrary(hCoreDll); } } else RegCloseKey(hKey); } =================================================================== I tested all the key under _T("ControlPanel\\Volume") - Volume, Screen, Key Screen and Key are immediately reflected by the new value after calling 'AudioUpdateFromRegistry'.

    - eVC 4.0 + MFC - Events not firing Hello all. About 2 days ago I started to re-write an application I had begun in raw Win32 using MFC. I'm creating the basic UI right now, and I'm having a bit of trouble with events in my dialogs. My base program is a Dialog-based application, contained in my "CEsysscanDlg" class. I click a button in that dialog which creates a CPropertySheet derived class called "HW_PROP_SCREEN" that has 4 pages. Each page is a CPropertyPage class derived object added in by the HW_PROP_SCREEN object on creation (it also pops up as soon as I declare it, which strikes me as odd.) The problem arises when I attempt to interact with controls on my PropertyPages. I start with my "HW_PG1" class, which is derived from CPropertyPage. It consists of: - A text box with a button to the right - A drop-down ComboBox - Two read-only text boxes and was created using the Dialog Editor. My combo box, "IDC_HW_HWTYPE", has one event associated with it, "CBN_SELENDOK" which I already have performing what I want in my Win32 version. But it seems that whenever I'd expect the CBN_SELENDOK event to fire, it doesn't. To test, I created the BN_CLICKED for my "IDC_LOADREC" button (to the right of the first text control) and added a MessageBox call to the event. It does not fire either. I tried creating several other events, and none fire. Am I missing a step here? Are my messages getting misrouted and not being caught by my PropertyPage? Any assistance would be appreciated!

I try the exact same code to the PPC2002 Emulator and the code just hangs and eventually after about 10 minutes or so times out. What's going on here? Do i need to target (if so how?) a particular OS such as PPC2002? The project was created using VS2003. Thanks Harry Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79852

    - Compiling for H/PC v2.0? Is there any way to get eMbedded VC++ to build an EXE for H/PC (WinCE 2.0)? I have the SDK for H/PC Pro (CE v2.11), and EXEs from that will also run on H/PC 2000 as I understand it. I didn't think there'd be that much of a difference between 2.0 and 2.11 but the simpliest (~3K Exe) "Hello World" Win32 app won't run (gives an exception) on my Jornada 660 H/PC. :-( I think I found the H/PC 2.0 SDK on microsoft's site (mplatsdk.exe). Many of the links leading there are broken. But it appears this requires Visual Studio? Or will it work with eVC? Hopefully somebody has done some dev for these older machines. Thanks!

    - SQL CE Data Type Question I am creating an SQL CE database by code and have a few quick questions. I was reading the knowledge base article http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sqlce/htm/_lce_repl_plan_publishing_data_and_database_objects.asp , but it didn't answer all my questions. What is the difference between ntext and text? My string will be less than 256 characters which is 'text' in Access. A description was not given for ntext. Should I use ntext? Is there a supported data type for a long? If I remember right, a long is int16 - a sixteen bit number. I noticed an int8, but are int16, int32, int64 etc. supported? Thanks for the help.

    - HELP!!! Please Okay, I am new to the Pocket PC and so far I love it! I have experience in programming C, C++ and Java using Visual Studio. I have downloaded eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 and my company let me load the Visual Studio .NET on to my machine, we have the MSDN subscription. What I need is a good starting point. Is there any good books that anyone can recommend or even good websites with code examples that I can look at? Any help would be much appreciated, Jay Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79820

    - problems with BSSID search in different PPC 2003 devices hello guys, I am developing an application. One of its functions is to search APs or other PCs with Wi-Fi function. I used the following code to search BSSIDs. When I tested the code on HP IPAQ5450, the code returns correct network names; but on TOSHIBA E800, some network names are ok, but some network names returned from the code are weird characters. Both devices run PPC 2003. TCHAR ptcDeviceName[1024]; HANDLE g_hNdisUio; BOOL retval; /*Create file which has access to network driver*/ g_hNdisUio = CreateFile( NDISUIO_DEVICE_NAME, GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL | FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE); if (g_hNdisUio == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { MessageBox(0,TEXT("Can not create file!"),TEXT("Error"),MB_OK); return false; } /*check out the device name. the device name will be stored in ptcDeviceName*/ retval = GetWiFiDeviceName(g_hNdisUio, ptcDeviceName); if(!retval){ MessageBox(0,TEXT("Can not Retrieve Network Card Name"),TEXT("Error"),MB_OK); return FALSE; } /*retrieve the BSSID list*/ PNDISUIO_QUERY_OID queryOID; DWORD dwBytesReturned = 0; PNDIS_802_11_BSSID_LIST buf; UCHAR QueryBuffer[sizeof(NDISUIO_QUERY_OID)+sizeof(NDIS_802_11_BSSID_LIST)*20]; //buffer for 20 entries queryOID =(PNDISUIO_QUERY_OID) &QueryBuffer[0]; queryOID->ptcDeviceName = ptcDeviceName; queryOID->Oid = OID_802_11_BSSID_LIST; retval = DeviceIoControl( g_hNdisUio, IOCTL_NDISUIO_QUERY_OID_VALUE, (LPVOID) queryOID, sizeof(NDISUIO_QUERY_OID) +sizeof(NDIS_802_11_BSSID_LIST)*20, (LPVOID) queryOID, sizeof(NDISUIO_QUERY_OID) +sizeof(NDIS_802_11_BSSID_LIST)*20, &dwBytesReturned, NULL); if(!retval){ MessageBox(0,TEXT("Can not query BSSID list"),TEXT("Error"),MB_OK); return FALSE; } buf= (PNDIS_802_11_BSSID_LIST) &queryOID->Data; // pointer to the data structure which contains the list int n = buf->NumberOfItems; //how many APs found NDIS_802_11_SSID ssid; for(int i=0; i<n; i++) { WCHAR szOut[32]; memset(szOut,'\0',sizeof(szOut)); ssid= (buf->Bssid[i]).Ssid; mbstowcs(szOut,(char*)(ssid.Ssid), (ssid.SsidLength)*8); if(ssid.SsidLength>0) MessageBox(NULL,szOut, TEXT("AP name"),MB_OK); /*pop-up window shows AP names*/ } CloseHandle(g_hNdisUio); DeleteFile(NDISUIO_DEVICE_NAME); Did anybody have similar experience? and how did you solve this? eric Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79804

    - pda name Hello, I need to get pda name ("HP iPAQ" string). How I get it ? Thanks Petr Tag: Port from PocketPC to CE 4.2 Tag: 79790

I'm about to port my Pocket PC app to be able to run on a regular CE
4.2 device.

1) What do I need to do to convert my project files and build
settings?

2) What code changes will be required. My first recompile attempt
with the STANDARDSDK_420 gives me all sorts undeclared identifiers,
such as m_bFullScreen, m_pWndEmptyCB, GetSystemPowerStatusEx,
SHInitExtraControls, SHSipPreference, SipGetCurrentIM, SHDoneButton,
SHMENUBARINFO, SHCreateMenuBar, SHCMBF_EMPTYBAR, SHFS_HIDESTARTICON.

3) Will I still have access to SIP / IM (Letter Recognizer) character
entry?

TIA,
David

It depends how much your application is Pocket PC oriented ;-)
How strongly you use Pocket PC API.
Check it recompiling your app.

That's right. You have no access to all Pocket PC API calls (SH*).
So, you have to change it, port to common Windows CE API.
Some things will change your user interface, because
there are many differences between Pocket PC
and other Windows CE platforms.
