    - How to determine if emulator has been hard reset? Hi, This is a repeat of a question from a few years ago: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer/browse_thread/thread/2d462b038232464a/9728cd09efb4294f?lnk=gst&q=reset The answer there was to check HKLM\Comm for the BootCount value. There is no such value in anywhere in the WM6 registry. The only keys in the registry with "boot", "count", or "reset" anywhere in their names are: \System\Shell\Booted \init\BootVars \Comm\Security\LASSD\AuthReset None of these keys contains any subkeys or values relevant to the number of times the unit has been rebooted. So how can I verify that the emulator has performed a hard boot? thanks! Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127165

    - Hiding menu CDialog Hello, Is there a way to hide the menu bar at the bottom of the screen in dialog box? I created a MFC dialog box application and put the following code in the OnInitDialog function: -- code snippet begin -- SHMENUBARINFO mbi; ZeroMemory(&mbi, sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO)); mbi.cbSize = sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO); mbi.hwndParent = GetSafeHwnd(); mbi.dwFlags = SHCMBF_HIDDEN; // also tried using the SHCMBF_HIDESIPBUTTON flag with the HIDDEN flag SHCreateMenuBar(&mbi); -- code snippet end -- That didn't seem to work. It works when I created a Windows application and put the code in response to the WM_CREATE message. The other thing that would work for me is if I can draw over that menu bar area. Thank you in advance for your help. ---- mark Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127158

    - SIP menu disable menu item. Hello EB, I'm trying to disable the "Options..." menu item in the SIP's menu that pops up on the Pocket PC, for both - Pocket PC 2003 and WM5.0. I'm unable to get the handle to the menu for the SIP's menu. WM_COMMAND messages aren't fired on the click event which occurs when I select the "Options..." menu item. What I've done is: //Get the handle to the SIP's window. hSIP = FindWindow(TEXT("MS_SIPBUTTON"), TEXT("MS_SIPBUTTON")) ; // Get the menu associated with this window. hMenu = (HMENU) SendMessage(hSIP, SHCMBM_GETMENU, 0, 0); // Get the sub-menu for the SIP button's menu. hSubMenu = GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0); // Tried other position values too. NULL ref. returned. I also tried obtaining the system menu - using the GetSystemMenu(...) API, but I don't get any sub-menu on the menu handle that I receive on this call. Where am I going wrong? How can I disable "Options..." for good? Any help in this regard will be appreciated. Thank you. Warm regards, Amit. Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127157

    - Configure networks programatically Sometimes my devices lose their network configuration (I mean the menu in Start > Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select networks). The one I set sometimes changes to another for unknown reasons.... I tried to delete the other ones but to my surprise that's not possible, once you have created a connection there, there isn't any option to delete it... Can this be set from a program? If so I would just set the correct one each time my programs start. Thanks. Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127155

    - no more pocket console? http://www.symbolictools.de/public/pocketconsole/applications/PocketCMD/ The venerable pocket console has disappeared, sure could use a copy but the site seems to have gone. Anyone have a place I can get it? The only way to get WM5 to show a console seems to be to use this and change a registry key. "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Console\OutputTo" value to "0" Not much use without the software! thanks Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127152

The space is no problem on the device, but I have some fear that the startup speed is slow when using too many bitmaps. So should I use BMP instead of PNG?

    - Practices for packaging/distributing apps to WM 5/6/2003SE? Hi, I was wondering what everyone's general practice was for packaging/distributing applications to multiple platforms? I should clarify that... I'm currently working on the setup for my application. I have a cabinet file being built, and a simple Windows-based Setup.exe to go with it (currently made with EzSetup [side-question: is there anything better?]). But making the .cab/Setup.exe brings up a bunch of questions about how to package and distribute my application. Namely: 1) Should I be building one cab/setup.exe per supported platform and ask the user to choose their O/S before downloading? (In this case, I'm targeting WM 2003 SE, WM 5 and WM 6). 2) Should I create a custom Setup.exe that houses all three .cab files and automatically chooses which one to install at runtime, depending on the user's system? 3) Should I just create a WM 2003 SE version and distribute that? If so, i) Is that safe? Is this what other people are doing? ii) Are there any potential/specific issues with cross-compatibility that I should watch out for? iii) Is it good enough just to recompile and run the unit tests for each O/S, or is there a specific set of extra tests I should be doing in this case. iv) Are there any performance or visual differences between running a WM 2003/5/6 app on a WM 5/6 device? ...By the way, this is for a native C++ application, using ATL and a GUI (I'd prefer to stay away from .NET for the setup). It seems as though I should go with number 3, but then I start to wonder if that's the best way to go about it. I wouldn't mind making a specialized setup, as in number 2, if it means that the product performs and/or looks better on my customer's devices. As far as I can tell, most of the functions work on both all of the above platforms. But I did notice a change in my Settings App: my dialog sizes itself differently between the WM 2003 SE and WM 5 compiles. It's actually a dialog window over a tab group. Both ran on a WM 5 device. I'm not sure if that has to do with the ORIENTATION_AWARE define. I didn't use the pre-generated ATL stuff for my project... could that be an issue? Other than that, SecureZeroMemory() isn't supported on WM 2003 SE. To sum up, I'm still pretty new at this. I was wondering if there's some common/conventional wisdom about how to deploy to multiple O/S's? If anyone would be so kind as to share your experiences about this, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you very much, Chris Writely Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127146

    - Bizarre error message from SerialPort.open I have an app that talks to COM8 (the "Outgoing" Bluetooth port on a PDA. Periodically, when it has previously been in use, it seems, I get the error "The port 'COM8:' does not exist." on sport.open(). Apart from the fact that COM8 clearly does exist, where does "COM8:" come from? I definitely defined it as "sport.PortName = "COM8"" - so (a) why does it think it doesn't exist, and (b) where does that colon in the port name come from?

    - Sound output using PPCSound Library http://www.pocketpcdn.com/libraries/ppcsound.html Hi, Anyone used the PPCSound libary at this site. Input capture works straight off but can't get any output of the speaker, I've put breakpoints in the wavethread.cpp functions CWaveOutThread::ThreadProc and am getting lots of MM_WOM_DONE messages. So obviously something is being played. Are there any bugs in it or changes that need to be made. I checked the m_pWaveHeaderArray[iLastIndex] lpdata area to check there is data as well! I have my own waveout implementation which i don't think is as good as the PPCSound libary and i can play sound so i know my device is ok etc so i there must be something fundamental i'm missing for this not to work.

    - VS2005 cab deployment Hi, I've asked this before, but got no response. When I create a "Smart Device CAB Project", and add a Setup DLL, it is added twice.. once as "CESetupDLL=..." in the inf, as well as in the list of files to copy to %InstallDir%. I can not manage to use the VS user interface to prevent it from being added as a file to be installed.. so I have to manually remove this from the generated .inf. This seems like a bug to me, unless someone can tell me how to do this. Lisa. Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127114

    - Do we need to build for MIPS, SH for WM 2003+? Hi, I've been trying to find confirmation on the practice of building for MIPS and SH processors in Visual Studio 2005, instead of just building for ARM. The closest thing I've found is from a post here by Mr. Robert E. Zaret (see below). The reason why I'm a bit confused is a bit long-winded, but anyway, it's mainly because I'm also doing research on how to create a Windows-based setup program that automatically copies and runs a .cab file on Windows Mobile devices. It seems as though all of the examples expect the .ini file going into CEAppMgr.exe to contain multiple .cab files, one per architecture. This includes newer, 2005+ examples. Could anyone confirm the following quote? It's not that I don't believe Mr. Zaret, it's just that I haven't found anything official on this, plus the issue above. If it helps, I'm mainly interested in building for WM 2003 and up. Quote: "Microsoft controls the specifications for the Pocket PC platform (called Windows Mobile Classic and Windows Mobile Professional, as of Windows Mobile 6). As of Pocket PC 2002, they have decreed that the platform supports only ARM-compatible CPUs. Also, the SDKs Microsoft provides do not distinguish among ARM-compatible CPUs. So, unless you are supporting some other platform(s), you have no need or ability to support CPUs other than ARM.

    - Updating DataRow throws Exception 0xC0000005 Hi guys, I'm facing a very puzzling problem and thought maybe someone here could help. It's been driving me nuts, really... Maybe it's something dumb that I'm just not realizing. I'm developing a Windows CE application (to be deployed in Windows CE 4.2 core) and my emulator is running Windows CE .NET v4.10 (build 908). I don't have a device with me now where I could test the software, unfortunately (that's still being arranged). One of the code bits is a button to consolidate data, merging rows in a DataTable: [CODE] private void btnConsolidar_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { for( int j=0; j < dataTable.Rows.Count; j++ ) { DataRow row1 = dataTable.Rows[j]; String ean = (String)row1["ean"]; String cod = (String)( ( row1["codigo"] == null ) ? "" : row1["codigo"] ); int idx; for( idx=j+1; idx < dataTable.Rows.Count; idx++ ) { DataRow row2 = dataTable.Rows[idx]; if( ((String)row2["ean"]) == ean || (cod != "" && ((String)row2["codigo"]) == cod )) { long q1 = long.Parse((string)row1["quant"]); long q2 = long.Parse((string)row2["quant"]); if( bConferencia ) { if( (string)row1["quant1"] == "0" ) { string q = (string)row2["quant1"]; //row1["quant1"] = q; dataTable.Rows[j]["quant1"] = q; // CRASH! } if( (string)row1["quant2"] == "0" ) //row1["quant2"] = (string)row2["quant2"]; dataTable.Rows[j]["quant2"] = (string)row2["quant2"]; } row1["quant"] = q1+q2; // remove a fileira copiada dataTable.Rows.RemoveAt( idx ); //dataTable.AcceptChanges(); // row1 = dataTable.Rows[j]; // compensa a fileira removida idx--; } } } dgItens.DataSource = dataTable; dgItens.Refresh(); } [/CODE] Please forgive the commented extra code, I've been adding and removing scaffolding looking for the problem. What this does is something like this: suppose you have three rows, thus: A 0 0 7 B 4 3 0 A 0 0 3 C 1 5 0 A 2 2 0 It consolidates the same products to: A 2 2 10 B 4 3 0 It works when you only have one product repeated (i.e., only one row1 is updated). However, if there are several repeated products, A 0 0 7 B 0 0 5 A 2 2 0 B 4 3 0 the system crashes with a native exception (code 0xC0000005, which research shows is an illegal memory access exception) when I try to update the second row in the table (line marked "CRASH!", above). Note that the first update goes well! Also, if I set it up with only one product repeated, press the button, set it up with another product repeated, and press the button again, it works. I'm guessing it has to do with the way DataTable updates its rows, but so far, I've had no luck figuring the problem out. I'll greatly appreciate any help I can get! Thanks in advance, Shade.

    - try/catch Hi, My debug output shows an exception when using CArchive::ReadString() beyond the end of the file.

    - wired keyboard for Windows Mobile 5 devices? using a handheld PC as I'm looking for an external keyboard for my smart phone (Verizon XV6700, same as HTC Apache or Sprint PPC-6700). I tried bluetooth and would prefer a good old fashioned wired keyboard that would plug into the phone's mini USB port. Does anyone make one of these? I am not seeing one.

The handheld PC has a serial cable, PCMCIA slot, IR and CF slot. The phone has a mini USB plug & mini SD slot. I would prefer a wired solution, if it's not too hard. I have the old eMbedded tools 3.0 for the handheld (VB, C++) and Vis Studio 2003 & 2005 for the Mobile 5 phone and a *wee* bit of experience wiring & programming a microcontroller to do serial communication.

I kept getting a "native error", which I eventually tracked down to an "access denied" error. This appears to happen when the program leaves the handler which is listening for data on the serial port. Using Debug, I can track it all the way to the End Sub - then it falls over. The CF 1.0 version of the same app runs fine on the same PDA, and the 2.0 version runs fine on other PDAs. IOW, I haven't a clue where to go from here.

    - IMailSyncCallBack/Pocket Outlook(Messaging) Platform: Windows Mobile 6 Application: Pocket Outlook (Messaging) Program Description: Created an Email Client in my application using Win32 API and MAPI. I'm able to create and submit my message to Pocket Outlook, but the message resides in the Outbox until the next synchronization (Send/Receive set @ 5 mins). However, I need to send the email as soon as possible, and I've read about COM objects such as IMailSyncCallBack, but I can't find any examples of how to use this interface properly. A lot of the material that's on the Internet is very limited, and it's hard to decipher. Maybe I'm confused on the concept of custom transports (and honestly, I don't want to create one if I don't have to), but isn't there a way to just use the default transport and synchronize, without having to provide the implementation details for the abstract class IMailSyncCallBack? Since MSDN states this as a COM interface, this is what I've been trying to do, however to no avail: Code: CLSID clsid; LPOLESTR pProgID = L"PocketOutlook.Application"; //Don't think this is right.. hr = CLSIDFromProgID(pProgID, &clsid); IMailSyncCallBack *pMSCB; CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED); //Following Returns E_NOINTERFACE... Therefore, the CLSID is incorrect. hr = CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_HANDLER, IID_IMailSyncCallBack, (void**) pMSCB); if(SUCCEEDED(hr)) { //pMSCB Methods go here pMSCB->Release(); } else { //Error!

I know that this is possible by using Cabwiz.exe command line ( / prexml and /postxml), but is there a way to specify with the IDE which xml file we want to use ? Thank you very much, Best Regards, Jean-Christophe Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127041

    - WaitCommEvent timout I have a loop in a separate thread that reads data from a COM port. The loop in the thread checks a flag to determine when to exit. My problem is when I try to stop the read loop it hangs on WaitCommEvent when there is not data coming from the COM port. Since overlapped is not supported in CE, what is the best way to make the WaitCommEvent time out? I can force the issue by using TerminateThread or closing the COM port, but I want to let it exit gracefully if possible. Thanks. Timothy Dean Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127031

    - Dealing with charset between different applications (Java/C++) Hi, I have some doubts and I hope you can dissolve them. I'm using as my target machine a Pocket PC with Windows Mobile SE 2003. I have a client written in Java and a server written in C++. I have to send characters such as =E8,=F2,=E0 and so on. I suppose that if I send from java application such characters and I receive them in a char array,they'll be misunderstood right? The charset in use on the Pocket PC is ISO8859_1 (discovered through java application). If I send bytes with this encoding,how can I deal them? wchar_t? And how I send responses to the client? send is defined as: send( IN SOCKET s, IN const char FAR * buf, IN int len, IN int flags ); which it doesn't use wchar_t. Please give me some advices. Thanks Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 127027

    - Detecting window close on PocketPC Hello, How can one detect that the used has clicked the X button of the window? Windows CE doesn't send a WM_CLOSE message, but only a WM_ACTIVATE. But a WM_ACTIVATE could be caused by many other things, so it's not a reliable way to find that. thank you very much, Felipe Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 126996

    - Windows CE window size Hello, I am writing a PocketPC application, and to get a window which is full screen, I use CW_USEDEFAULT on Width, Height, Left and Top on CreateWindowEx. Now, that produces a too large window. The bottom panel of the device is partially covered. What is the recommended way to create a window with the exact size of the screen, without covering the bottom panel? I know this is a very simple question, but I googled a lot and couldn't find an answer =( thank you very much, Felipe Tag: RAFI and ActiveSync Tag: 126995
