    - SQL CE Transaction Problem I am trying to start a transaction and I am getting this error: BeginTransaction requires an open and availible Connection. The connection's current state is Open, Fetching. I have executed previous SQL statements, but they should have been completed several lines before I try to start the transaction. Here is my code to start the transaction: 'start the transaction Try i = 0 SQLCmd = New SqlServerCe.SqlCeCommand i = 1 SQLCmd.Connection = SqlConn i = 2 trans = SqlConn.BeginTransaction i = 3 SQLCmd.Transaction = trans Catch ex As Exception MsgBox("Error with trans " & i & vbCrLf & DBOpen) MsgBox(ex.Message) End Try SQLConn is a global varialbe that I am using for my connection. I thought that this was the best way to do it. Can SQL CE databases have multiple connections open at once? Also, what is the maximum number of queries that can be part of a transaction? My program could possibly add about 32,000 for a transaction. Do I need to break it into smaller peices? Thanks for the help. Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 80048

    - Getting the Pocket PC device serial number??? I've ported an application from Palm OS to Pocket PC 2003 (basically, had to rewrite pretty much all of it) from C to embedded VC++. My app is C, not C++. On the Palm, you simply call a SysGetROMToken function to retrieve the device unique serial number. I understand the Pocket PCs often don't have built in serial numbers or functions to calling, making it so much harder to generate individual activation codes for applications. I've seen one approach to get the serial number on http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/serial_number2002.html but I couldn't make it work. It's probably me not being proficient enough in VC++ 4.0, the approach isn't exactly smoothly explained. I'd like sample codes to be cut and paste...;-) Does anyone have suggestions as to how to go about retrieving the unique serial number, hints/guidance would be much appreciated.

    - How to compile for HPC 2.0 with eVC++ 3.0 (was: Compiling for H/PC v2.0?) How to compile for H/PC 2.0 using eVC++ Mike Welch, Dallas --------------------------------------- After weeding through several broken links, I managed to find the proper SDK on Microsoft's site. The SDK file is called mplatsdk.exe. The documentation says it's for Visual Studio v5/6 and "other compilers", but doesn't say what other compilers it supports. I won't post the URL here since it may be moved in the future, but at this time at least you can easily find it by searching the downloads area of microsoft.com for it. If that fails, try Google. Currently you can find it via both. This contains the files you need to compile and link, in addition to the samples and the OLD emulator that I'm fairly certain is NOT compatible with eVC v3.x. I did run the emulator stand-alone, however, and it ran fine, so you can probably still test with it, just not through eVC++. There may be an easier way to do this, but this is what worked for me. I now have my YachtCE app compiling across 9 different OS/hardware/CPU combinations, including a H/PC 2.0 Jornada 660. YachtCE may work on other older machines too, such as the HP 360LX...anybody got one they'd be willing to try it on? :) Things you'll need to know -------------------------- Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything (ask my mother!). Seriously, no liability, do at your own risk! For reference, the directory structure was different in the 2.0 days. If "root" is where you tell the SDK to install, you will be interested in these paths resulting from the installation: Includes: <root>\wce\include\HPC Libraries: <root>\wce\lib\wce200\HPC\<device> Add to path: <root>\wce\bin (and all below) Note that the include directory is the same for all CPUs, but not the libraries path. <device> above, in other words, would be wcemips for MIPS. Steps to get this to work ========================= First of all, download the SDK and, after you make sure eVC isn't running, install it. Then follow the remaining steps below. Registry Hack ------------- This will add a new platform to eVC. It's ugly. Make sure there are no small children around. You wouldn't want them to see this. ;-) I recommend at least backing up your registry, creating a new system restore point, or doing a full backup (preferred) before you start. . Exit EVC if it's up. . Run RegEdit . Search for "H/PC Pro 2.11" in the registry. It'll be under "Windows CE Tools". If you don't find it, you didn't install it with eVC. Here are some other platforms you can search for, listed exactly as found in my registry: . Palm-size PC 2.11 . POCKET PC 2003 . Smartphone 2002 . Pocket PC 2002 . or, if you're so inclined: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ Windows CE Tools\ Platform Manager\ {F384D888-F9AA-11D1-BB9E-00A0C9C9CCEE} . Create a new GUID under the path above, or just use the one I created: {8FBDDEC5-E014-4528-BC2F-B4A3E9247F0F} . Export the "H/PC Pro 2.11" entry (including all children) to a RegEdit v4 (non-Unicode) file. . If you don't have H/PC Pro 2.11 installed, you'll have to base your new eVC platform on what is in there. Hint: A .NET entry won't work :) . On my box, the GUID for H/PC Pro 2.11 is {74239C21-1DCA-11D2-9747-00A0240918F0} . Using a plain text editor, go edit your exported *.reg file and search/replace the H/PC Pro's GUID with the new GUID you added . Go back into RegEdit. . Import your edited *.reg file. You should now see lots of stuff under the new entry you created earlier. . Change the value of the (default) entry to "H/PC 2.0" [without the quotes]. . Browse the keys within your new platform and change all entries that refer to CE version 2.1.1 to 2.0.0 and you're done with the hack! Change Settings in EVC ---------------------- You now need to change the paths for the new platform so it points to the right include, lib, etc. paths. . When you go back into EVC you should now see your HPC 2.0 entry in the "Active Configuration" drop-down. . A new entry will also show under Tools/Platform Manager Configuration . Go to Tools/Options, Directories Tab, and change your path information to where you installed the H/PC 2.0 SDK. I didn't delete anything, only added new paths, so in case something eVC expects isn't defined, it'll fall back on the original settings. . Ignore the settings for the ARM processor listed. The HPC 2.0 SDK does not have libraries for ARM. . Move your new entries to the TOP of the dialog using the up/down arrow icons for each path you add for each group (executable, include, etc). That's it! After doing this I was able to compile and link for the new platform! Well...after a few tweaks to my code (see below). ISSUES - SH3 ------------ In my single test (compiling YachtCE), I found that there were two unresolved externals (meaning they're defined in the includes, just not implemented). . wcstol, which I was able to replace with _wtoi (which IS defined) because I didn't really need the base conversion element. . memset, which I wrote a replacement for (see below). ISSUES - MIPS ------------- . I got the same "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol memset" that I got on the SH3, so I plugged my replacement in. . Then I got "error C2169: 'memset' : intrinsic function, cannot be defined". Go figure... . The fix for this was to rename all references to memset to Zmemset for MIPS. Ugly. With the additional changes listed above, I tested YachtCE.exe on the Jornada 660 (SH3) HPC 2.0 and it worked fine. I don't have a HPC 2.0 MIPS machine to test it on, but I'm fairly confident it'll be fine. ISUES - OTHER ------------- . My app was using Tahoma and Courier New fonts which didn't exist on the 660, so I changed them to Arial and Courier respectively. // Replacement for memset that isn't defined in HPC 2.0 bin files. // This could be dangerous if I have a bug...double check it // Compiled fine in my .C app, not sure about C++ void *memset(void *dest, int c, size_t count) { unsigned int i; char *p; p = (char *) dest; for (i = 0; i < count; i++) p[i] = c; return dest; } <EOF> Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 80032

    - SQL CE Problem when reading numerous records I made my own grid "control" with labels and a scroll bar. When the scroll bars are moved quickly, none of my sql statements are executed. They all return an error. The gird works when the scroll bars are moved slowly, the problem is only when they are moved quickly. Here is how I am reading the data: Try cmd = New SqlCeCommand(sql, SqlConn) dr = cmd.ExecuteReader Catch ex As Exception MsgBox("Error in filling grid") Exit Sub End Try It onlys shows that message box when the scroll bars are moved quickly. I also tried adding a timer like this: Private Sub HScroll_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles HScroll.ValueChanged Sec = 0 timDraw.Enabled = True End Sub Private Sub timDraw_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles timDraw.Tick Sec += 1 If Sec >= 3 Then 'stop timer Sec = 0 timDraw.Enabled = False 'draw grid FillGrid() End If End Sub The interval of the timer is 30 ms. The grid consists of 5 rows and 3 columns. There isn't that much code in FillGrid but it gets called over and over very quickly. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

    - 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++?

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).

    - 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.

    - 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: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 79915

    - What's wrong with this code? I didn't get a reply to this, so I thought I'd try again. MainDialogA [shows]--> DialogB [shows]--> DialogC When you click the "OK" button in DialogC, rather than going back to DialogB as expected, it closes too! Could this be a limitation of nested dialogs? Thanks! Mike Welch ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 1. In the main dialog WndProc I handle the about button OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ... BOOL WINAPI MainDlgProc(HWND hDlg, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) ... if(wParam == IDC_ABOUT) { DialogBox(g_hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_ABOUT), g_hMainWnd, AboutDlgProc); break; } ... oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 2. The about dialog box handler opens a high score dialog box, also modal. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BOOL WINAPI AboutDlgProc(HWND hDlg, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { switch(msg) { case WM_INITDIALOG: { ...init stuff return TRUE; } case WM_COMMAND: { if (wParam == ID_BTN_HIGHSCORE) // clicked high score btn *---> DialogBox(g_hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_HIGHSCORE), hDlg, HighScoreDlgProc); if (wParam == IDCANCEL || wParam == IDOK) { // Close button EndDialog(hDlg, TRUE); return TRUE; } break; } } return FALSE; // Pass off to DefDlgProc } ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 3. The high score dialog box handler. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO When I call EndDialog below, not only does the high score dialog close, but the calling About dialog box closes too. Why? BOOL WINAPI HighScoreDlgProc(HWND hDlg, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { switch(msg) { case WM_INITDIALOG: { ... init stuff return TRUE; // Message handled } // Handle button clicks case WM_COMMAND: { if (wParam == ID_BTN_CLEAR_HIGHSCORE) ... code handler snipped return TRUE; } // Close the high score dialog if (wParam == IDCANCEL || wParam == IDOK) { *---> EndDialog(hDlg, TRUE); // closes calling dialog too! return TRUE; } break; } } return FALSE; } Thanks!

    - 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'. But the Volume only doesn't. Please help. Regards. Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 79891

    - CeCopyFile in VB6 I am trying to use RAPI to copy a file in VB6. Here is the code that I have: RAPI Module ---------------------------------------- Type RAPIINIT cbsize As Long heRapiInit As Long hrRapiInit As Long End Type Public Declare Function CeRapiUninit Lib "rapi.dll" () As Long Public Declare Function CeGetLastError Lib "rapi.dll" () As Long Public Declare Function CeRapiGetError Lib "rapi.dll" () As Long Public Declare Function CeCopyFile Lib "rapi.dll" (CurrentPath As Long, NewPath As Long, Overwrite As Boolean) As Long Public Declare Function CeRapiInitEx Lib "rapi.dll" ( _ pRapiInit As RAPIINIT) As Long ' Initialize RAPI Public Function ConnectRapi() As Long Dim lcon As Long Dim lRapiInit As RAPIINIT With lRapiInit .cbsize = Len(lRapiInit) .heRapiInit = 0 .hrRapiInit = 0 End With lcon = CeRapiInitEx(lRapiInit) ConnectRapi = lcon End Function ' Uninitialize RAPI Public Function DisconnectRapi() As Long Dim lcon As Long lcon = CeRapiUninit DisconnectRapi = lcon End Function button ------------------------------ Private Sub Command1_Click() Dim success As Boolean Dim lconn As Long Dim x, y, z As String Dim r as Long lconn = ConnectRapi z = CeRapiGetError x = "\Program Files\Test PPC\1202030002.txt" y = "D:\1202030002.txt" r = CeCopyFile(VarPtr(x), VarPtr(y), True) z = CeRapiGetError lconn = DisconnectRapi End Sub In the button's click event, lconn, r and z are both 0 the whole time. It says that lconn should be 0 if there is a good connection. However, r should contain a non 0 value if the function worked. When I call CERAPIGetError, it returns a 0. Any ideas why this isn't working or another way I can copy a file with VB6? Thanks for the help.

    - Problems with "GET" in HTML on PIE I have an .ASP script that proces a form. It works ok on Internet Explorer (Win and Mac), Mozilla and others. It works well on Pocket PC OS 2002, but there's no way to have it working on Windows Mobile 2003. Access Netfront 3.1 works fine, but Pocket Internet Explorer comes back with the error message my script sends out when a field is empty. I am sure this changed from 2002 to 2003. On Netfront, Mozilla and Internet Explorer it works fine. PIE 2003 fails. Try this ASP: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <title>Test login</title> </head> <% response.write request("submit") %> <form id="login_form" name="login_form" method="get" > <input type=submit name="submit" value="LOGIN" > </form> <body> </body> </html> On any browser you'll see LOGIN on your browser as the result of clicking the button. Try this on PIE. The request string becomes a garbage with all that is "get". Try www.geekzone.co.nz/log.asp Any ideas? -- Mauricio Freitas, Microsoft MVP Mobile Devices Bluetooth guides: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=449 Performance Centre (Pocket PC reviews): http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?ContentId=2028 Handango discount: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/handango_code.asp Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 79884

    - 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!

    - yyyy is now gone from the short day format in WM2003 In PPC2002, in the regional settings, it had a date format of mm/dd/yyyy. Now with WM2003, that date format is gone?!?!? Anyone have any ideas? I can set it programatically through code, but wondering why the user can't set it anymore ... Thanks, KS Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 79871

    - Help Me with the Emulators? Hi, I am trying to get an Emulator for Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition running on my PC. I am building an Internet app for a client and he would like to be able to view pages on his Pocket PC running Pocket IE. I have downloaded the Pocket PC 2003 SDK and the Pocket PC 2003 Second Edition Emulators from Microsofts website. I see a directory of emulators that are BIN files, but how do I "boot" those files? Thanks, Rich Tag: Serial Problem After Inactive Tag: 79866

My app keeps the serial port open while it is running. I know this uses a lot of power but it is one of the features of my program. When the backlight turns off and the PPC becomes inactive, it seems that the Serial Port becomes inactive or closes somehow. If I close the app and open it again it works fine. Is there a way to sense when he PPC becoems dim? Can I keep it on all the time when my app is running? Thanks for the help.
