    - DeviceMap/TOUCH calibration doesn't work on Intermec 761? HI, I am trying to get an Intermec 761 device to skip the welcome screen and just calibrate manually using the registry setting: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH] "CalibrationData"="2047,1987 993,933 3148,915 3103,3063 975,3059 " "DriverName"="touch.dll" I load this registry setting using the Intermec utility ITCRegloader.exe on cold boot, then I warm boot and find that the screen is unusable. I use values originally taken from the 761 registry. Note forward-slashes above are actually backslashes in the .reg file. This is working for me on the 760 devices but not on the 761. Any insights? Thanks... Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100411

    - FindResource() / LoadResource() return an invalid pointer B"H In www.JewishContent.org/pda/pocket-pc/bavli/arm/bavli+rashi-Whole-Shas.exe - which has 10,000+ RCDATA resources (starting from resource id 1001 through 11,999 - which is less than 0x7FFF) in the following routine: char *GetRes(int res) { HRSRC hResource; HGLOBAL glob; int size; char *txt; if(!(hResource = FindResource(gInstance, res, RT_RCDATA))) return 0; if(!(size = SizeofResource(gInstance, hResource)) || !(glob = LoadResource(gInstance, hResource))) return 0; txt = LockResource(glob); return txt; } The pointer returned by FindResource() and/or LoadResource() seems to be sporadic, when requesting a resource, sometimes the pointer is valid, other times the pointer is invalid. If I compile using DevStudio 5 - for Windows Desktop, under windows 2000 this error does not show up. While debugging an "Windows Mobile 2003 SE" device I was able to see sometimes this was an invalid pointer. Furthermore, while debugging, I once got a valid pointer, but partially through data (say SizeofResource() was 100, and at txt[73] was invalid (while txt[72] was valid)! as it happened the address where the pointer became invalid was at memory location 0x3360:0000 - which seems to point at "page fault" or similar which Windows CE is not handling properly within resource DATA. - Chaim Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100408

    - Problem with Protocol Driver using WiFi Hi I am developing a Protocol Driver for Pocket PC 2003 based devices that tries to capture data passing thru the WiFi medium. I am hooking up to the TIACXWLN1 adapter. The driver starts capturing packets the moment I enable it. However, the moment I open up the Internet Explorer to access a web site, the Driver crashes. The PacketReceive is working fine. I am unable to pinpoint the exact reason for the crash. Could someone please help me out in this. I also tried using PacketReceiveWan instead of the PacketReceive, but to no consequence.

    - RTS_CONTROL_TOGGLE does not work Dear all. I am using an old style RS232->RS485 converter for communicating with some hardware device Iâ??ve got. This converter uses the RTS signal to toggle between RX and TX mode on the RS485 communication. A problem I have noticed is that when setting the DCB.fRtsControl to RTS_CONTROL_TOGGLE, this does not always work. The problem has been described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q140030/ for Windows 95. But I also find this to be an issue in windows 98, on my PocketPC 2003 device (TDS Recon) and on several USB to RS232 converters I have been using. Now my workaround for this has been to set the DCB.fRtsControl to RTS_CONTROL_DISABLE, and then toggle by using EscapeCommFunction (hPort, SETRTS) to control the state of the RTS signal manually. The problem here is that if the RTS signal is cleared before the RS485 converter has transmitted all bytes to the hardware device, the communication is interrupted. To avoid this I am setting a delay before calling the EscapeCommFunction (hPort, CLRRTS), but this is really not a good solution since it may delay the communication unnecessary. Now, my question is, does anyone else have experience with this issue, and perhaps know of any fixes where the RTS_CONTROL_TOGGLE can be used as normal instead of manually cycling the RTS signal? Any thoughts and ideas would be much appreciated. BRG Eskild Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100403

Right now I have the problem that I get some OnClose related events in the emulator, but none on my PPC.

    - screen rotation Hi, I have an Intermec 700C device running PPC2003 1ST EDITION and I'm looking for a way to to change the screen orientation programmatically. I have already tried the API "ChangeDisplaySettingsEx" function but it didn't work. After investigating the issue, I found out that the only way to do this is by creating a display driver that supports screen rotation using a tool by Microsoft called, Platform Builder. Unfortunately, this is not included with our MSDN Subscription, so my question is does anybody knows where can I find a display driver that supports screen rotation with PocketPC 2003 First Edition? I know that the Second Edition supports this, but the manufacturer says that upgrading to the Second Edition the devices that my client already uses is not possible. Therfore the OS has to remain PPC 2003 1st Edition... I also know that there is a utility to do this but the customer requires that I do it from within my application.

    - Javascript Limitations on Pocket IE I have been asked to help out building a series of web pages for data capture on a PDA. They have asked for a website that can be used by either a computer terminal or PDA - so I have started looking into limitations of Pocket IE. Unfortunately the pages that work in IE do not work on PIE. The main functionality seems to be using javascript to populate a second drop down list based on a first drop down list. This is an ASP page written with Javascript. When you select an item in the first list, the second one does not update. The page I think uses an iframe as part of the solution of populating - but I have also looked at other people's javascript function that uses arrays and they don't work properly on Pocket IE either. I have tried finding a sample of this (as its pretty fundamental) but cannot seem to find anything about it being done on PIE. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

    - Full screen form with ShowDialog of Normal form I have a full screen maximized form that does a ShowDialog of a non-maximized normal form. In the normal form I have the following code in the form load event, but it doesn't work. It still comes up maximized with no title bar. If my PPC goes to sleep and I touch the screen, the second form appears with a title bar. Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal Me.ControlBox = True Me.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedSingle -- http://www.cyranocommunicator.com Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100306

    - VB.NET CF ComboBox.DroppedDown Anyone have a workaround for this property function that is not supported in VB .NET CF (ComboBox.DroppedDown)? I need to program a handheld for one-handed data entry, and combo-boxes that can not be dropped down by pressing a quick-key are useless to me in this application (no, the alt+down arrow option does not work for the handheld I am using which requires a [func] keypress before the alt and down making it a 3 keystroke operation). I really don't want to have to program a custom control to perform this one simple action. I thought about using SendKeys... but again, not supported in VB .NET CF. I would like to trap a special key and use the keydown event to drop down the combobox... -- Marjorie Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100303

    - MIDP Hi, I've seen current T-Mobile MDA's have a MIDP manager, thus a MIDP interpreter. Can I get this for my PocketPC from somewhere? If not - can I simply copy some files from such a device to my PDA to get it running? -- -Gernot int main(int argc, char** argv) {printf ("%silto%c%cf%cgl%ssic%ccom%c", "ma", 58, 'g', 64, "ba", 46, 10);} ________________________________________ Looking for a good game?

    - Landscape Bitmap Rotation Hi all, I'm looking for any info regarding fast bitmap rotation or any method to display bitmaps/text in landscape mode. I'm using Pocket PC 2003 (not SE), and so I have no landscape mode API support. Currently I'm drawing all my data into a memory bitmap, and then rotating the bits by creating another memory DIB and copying the data pixel by pixel, which is quite a lengthy process. I'd be greateful for any info on the matter, Thanks in advance, Yudi Tag: ANN: Reminder: Online chat tomorrow regarding Smart Device Programming Tag: 100293
