    - TodayScreen overwritting problem I want to display a dynamic (Integer) value in the TodayScreen. I am using the MyToday example given in the MSDN, but the problem is that, it is not clearing the previous message but overwritting on it. (This is done through the DrawText function). In one more example, I am using a Static Text (CreateWindow as "STATIC" Text), and displaying the message using SetWindowText Funciton, here the problem is, the Backround is not Transparent (White Rectangle around the dynamic text) but the above said problem is not happening here. Any suggestion in this regard is much useful. Regards, Nanda Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112475

    - Running GPS-monitor the background Hi all, I am evaluating a project and the use of PPC/Windows Mobile therein, and I'm wondering whether it is possible to run an application in the background (of an existing gps-nav application) and read data from an internal/external GPS device. Would it also be possible to map a hardware button so that it will be brought to the foreground and after som user-interaction return focus to the gps-nav application?

    - Using regions Hi I'm trying to create a polygon window using SetWindowRgn(). But a problem is, I can't use CreatePolygonRgn(). They say at windows CE, they only support CreateRectRgn(). So I tried to create lots of rectangle region, and combine it with CombineRgn function. It works, but the speed is too slow. Here's the code I tried: HRGN newRgn = NULL; if(!m_hRgn) m_hRgn = CreateRectRgn(rt.left, rt.top, rt.right, rt.bottom); else { newRgn = CreateRectRgn(rt.left, rt.top, rt.right, rt.bottom); CombineRgn(m_hRgn, m_hRgn, newRgn, RGN_XOR); } int i; int j = 1; for(i=0;i<25;i++) { rt.left-=j; rt.right+=j; rt.top+=j; rt.bottom+=j; newRgn = CreateRectRgn(rt.left, rt.top, rt.right, rt.bottom); CombineRgn(m_hRgn, m_hRgn, newRgn, RGN_XOR); } SetWindowRgn(m_hWnd, m_hRgn, TRUE); Is there any way I can create some polygon region? I found ExtCreateRegion(), but I can't figure out how to use this function in MSDN. Is there any good sample source about usage of this function? Please advice. Thank you in advance.

    - CAB installation and setting InstallDir at the last second (mobile When creating a CAB file you are required to set the InstallDir attribute under the [CEStrings] section of the CAB .inf file. My problem is that I'm not sure where I want to install the CAB file until the last possible second, as the CAB file is being installed. This is well after the CAB file has been built. In Mobile 4.2 you were able to override the InstallDir attribute at the last possible second by setting a registry value at [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apps\Microsoft Application Installer\Install]. You would set the registry value for your app, call "wceload.exe /noaskdest", and then wceload would look at this registry key for where to install the contents of your CAB. (This is described at http://blog.opennetcf.org/afeinman/CommentView,guid,1de2284c-a65e-417c-a130-1bd5acd4ad3d.aspx) This no longer works in Windows Mobile 5.0. I know for sure that wceload still looks at that registry key, because if you just call "wceload.exe" it will install all the CABs listed in that key. The problem is that no longer overrides the InstallDir attribute. I've tried all combinations of command line switches (e.g. /silent, /noui) as well as signing the CAB, to no avail. In my search for an answer I found that you can create a setup.dll to accompany your CAB, which has four functions called by wceload. One of the functions is Install_Init, described at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/APISP/html/sp_ce_setup_install_init.asp One of the parameters passed in is the install directory. I thought it'd be sweet if I could modify that in memory and accomplish my goal. This doesn't seem possible though because it's specified as an [in] parameter. Anyone have any suggestions?

    - Re Rotate Screen hi I already had try those registry settings, in case it would have helped....! but I guess I don't have a proper windows mobile version. Anyway thanks, it's good to know that the code can work and that the problem does't come from there. I'll use one of those bulky screen rotation softwares that fortunately work on my pda. bye hi I had also once did programs regarding the screen orientaion.... Your code works well in my device [ i-mate K-Jam ] works on windows mobile 5.0.. ...and... ChangeDisplaySettingsEx() will work on Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later. To make your changes permanent store them in registry. There are two values in registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation key where the system takes its orientation mode on startup: -> Angle - DWORD value holding rotation angle in degrees. Valid values are 0, 90, 180, 270. -> LandscapeMode - DWORD value holding flag of landscape mode. Valid values: 0 (portrait mode) and 1 (landscape mode). Note that changes made using such calls are not persistent, after soft-reset display mode will return to the previous state. --------------= Posted using GrabIt =---------------- ------= Binary Usenet downloading made easy =--------- -= Get GrabIt for free from http://www.shemes.com/ =- Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112465

    - PocketPC Phone Emulator - Roaming network? Hello, I've noticed the Pocket PC Phone Emulator (WM 5.0) includes a "Fake Radio" part (It registers on "Fake Network"). I've tried to see what other networks are available and also found "Fake Roaming Network" and "Fake Denied Network". However, I can't register the phone on "Fake Roaming Network" (trying to register it on the "denied" network obviusly fails). Is this a bug that can be fixed?

    - Best development tool for WM5? What is the best tool to use for mobile development? I have been using the .NET framework (1.1) and recently moved to the 2.0 framework. The development is great, but my concern is the deployment. The .NET 2.0 framework is fairly large, and then add SQL Server mobile install. All of this just to run a simple DB app? Most devices have the 1.0 framework pre-installed, but 2.0 requires an install on most devices. Would it be better to use C++ with a different database solution? SQLite, Access, flat file, etc?

    - debugging a "data abort" I have a multi-threaded PPC 2003 application that occasionally issues a "Data Abort" error when running. (The error shows up in the VS2005 'output' screen when running in debug mode.) Data Abort: Thread=9347b000 Proc=902ea4e0 'MyApp.exe' AKY=01000001 PC=01f83390 RA=01f83ab4 BVA=3216953a FSR=00000003 Data Abort: Thread=9347b000 Proc=902ea4e0 'MyApp.exe' AKY=01000001 PC=01f83390 RA=01f83d58 BVA=3216953a FSR=00000003 How can I find the line of code that is causing this error? Is there a way to get VS2005 to break when the data abort is issued? Thanks, PaulH Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112406

    - Trap HTTP traffic Hi guys, I am using a PDA using WM5. Most of the data I transfer on the internet (wifi or other kind of network) is HTTP (ActiveSync, Surf, ...). Because you have sometimes to pay your bill based on the amount of data trafered, I would like to create a tool to trap all the HTTP traffic, and log something like time/date, URL, and load... something like the log you have on IIS. I wonder if there are some tools to do this... and if not, wonder what kind of API I can use. If you can advise me. thanks for your help.

    - Windows Mobile 5 Today Screen Softkey Hardware Mapping Problem I am developing a VC++ Win32 app for Windows Mobile 5.0 that will remap hardware keys on a proprietary device to various HotKeys. My problem is that I need to map F1 and F2 to HotKeys 1 & 2 (referenced as 40C1 & 40C2 in the registry) and the mobile devic eactually has a full integrated keyboard so it has all of the F keys. Unfortunately it seems that the OS have taken F1 and F2 (keycode 112 and 113) and mapped them as the left and right softkeys, since most devices don't actually have the F keys. (so now hitting F1 and F2 select calendar or contacts when on the today screen or menu items it a program is running that only has to menubar items which the OS then assumes you just want your menu items to be in those softkeys) So, no when I try to call RegisterHotKey() for F1 and F2 it returns 0 (failure), although F3-F12 work just fine. Does anyone know of any way to unmap or at least remap the softkeys to something else. Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112392

    - How to construct a right FULLNAME using a LASTNAME and a FIRSTNAME I just want to know how to build a fullname string using a lastname string and a firstname string. The order of firstname and lastname is different between eastern and western region settings. For example: A fullname in eastern tradition is LASTNAME + FIRSTNAME, while western is FIRSTNAME + <SPACE> + LASTNAME. So, how do I know which format is right under certain language settings. I did not found a correct winapi function supplying this feature, but the Pocket Outlook do it well, I think there must be something I didn't know. Could somebody please give me some advices?

    - Connection to SQL Server very slow the first time Hi, I am new to PPC development. I have created a tiny app that wireless retrieves the info for a scanned item. It goes out to SQL Server 2000 on a server and runs the sp. The first time it takes about 87 seconds! For the first few seconds the wireless lights flash on my router. After that it just waits and waits and eventually works. Subsequent scans take about 3 or 4 seconds. So, does anybody know why it would do this? I was wondering if it was trying to connect with every 'adapter' listed on my PPC before deciding on one? Does anyone know the solution? This is the code I am using: sqlConn.ConnectionString = "packet size=4096;user id=sa;data source=mm_server\\MM,1433;persist security info=True;initial catalog=mm_data;password=xxxxx"; DataSet ds = new DataSet("DSMMPPC"); CMD.Connection = sqlConn; SqlDataAdapter sqlDA = new SqlDataAdapter(); sqlDA.SelectCommand = CMD; try { sqlConn.Open(); sqlDA.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey; sqlDA.Fill(ds, strTableName); } catch (SqlException sqle) { MessageBox.Show(sqle.Message); return null; } finally { sqlConn.Close(); } return ds.Tables[strTableName].DefaultView; Thanks Tim Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112385

The documentation for this function suggests that INT_MAX is returned on overflow, however it appears that (INT_MAX / 2) is actually returned.

    - File Upload on PDA using Master Pages asp.net 2.0 I am creating a asp.net 2.0 website that can be accessed via a PDA. On the page i have a file upload .net control, which works fine on its own. I can check the HasFile property and upload the file to the server. If i then change the page to use a MasterPage, the file upload control doesnt work!! It will allow me to choose a file, but when i try to upload it, the HasFile property is false instead of true. Has anyone else had this problem?? Is it a problem with asp.net 2.0 and using master pages?? Tag: Positioning a main menu WM5 c# VS2005 Tag: 112376

Hi all

If I add a MainMenu, it always appears on the bottom left of the screen. Is
it possible to make it appear on the bottom right?

thanks

Add a second Menu-Entry right from it and leave the first one without caption.
(Not a nice solution).

But it is against the Mobile-Development-Guidelines to prefer the bottom
right corner. The default location is the bottom left!

Many thanks Mike

I'm sure the people who wrote the guidelines had good reason, but in this
case its definitely needed on the right!

thanks again
