    - localization Hi, My method for localizing app was to create seperate resource dll's, (dll containing only resources, like dialog and string resource), then dynamically load the correct resouce file during execution. However, in my IDE, I can't even type cyrillic or chinese characters (characters show up as ?) into the resource editor. Visual Studio doesn't like unicode resource files either. Currently, I'm loading my strings from XML file, but this doesn't work well. For example, on SmartPhone, when you change the regional settings, the language changes on your device immediately, and all (built-in) apps, and not only that, even the names of applications (shortcuts) change! Now, how does this work? I'm guessing the application has multiple string table resources, each for a different code page, and OS selects the match one? The resource editor only provides like 4 languages for your resource files though, english, german, french, local and neutral I think.. Can someone tell me how built-in apps have their shortcut names localized to whichever language the user selects? Lisa Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121562

    - File transfers between PC <> PocketPC In an application I work on I will exchange some data files when the Pocket PC is cradled. I will use RAPI from the desktop to copy files between PPC and desktop. I know about other ways to exchange data like using webservices, RDA etc but for this application it will be done by simple file transfer using RAPI. What happens is the following: 1) The desktop user start the the transfer process form the desktop application. 2) PPC application need to export some of the data from the application to a file. This is done either by the user pushing a transfer option in the PPC application or a program is started on the PPC by using RAPI. 3) Desktop application copy the exported file from 2) to Dekstop and process data 4) Desktop application copy files with data to be imported on the PPC (possibly changed lookup tables) 5) PPC application import the new files into the database. Step 5 could be done when the PPC application starts but the way this application will be run it might be that the application is still running. If I choose the option to have the user start the transfer process then it is pretty simple. Just wait for new files to be created then process them and reload the datasets. However when two processes are running and especially like this when on two separate computers it do raise some possible problems. One computer does not know how when a process has finished or not, but you can of course check for created files or having the desktop computer to write to registry when process is finished or something. But still, you need to be prepared for communication failures etc. I could probably also use the OpenNetCF filewatcher class to react when new files to process have arrived on the PPC. However, it would be best if the entire syncronization process could be initiated from the desktop application without the user having to do anything on the PPC. This should not be that hard to do, the desktop program could launch a separate program on the PPC using RAPI which exports and imports data. That seems like a clean and user friendly way to do it. However there is one problem that remains to be solved. If the PPC application is still running I need to either close it or to use some interprocess communication method (openNetCF?) to tell the application to refresh datasets etc. Questions: 1) Which method would you choose? Using a seperate program on PPC to export/improt data or have the user start the transfer process in the application? Any other betetr mthods to do this? 2) Can you show me some example shwo to use IPC with .NEt compact? Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121552

    - How to scroll a bitmap inside a today screen plugin? Hello! I have a problem creating a window with a vertical scroll bar. Here's what I try to do: HWND InitializeCustomItem(.... ....... g_hWnd = CreateWindow(appName, appName, WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | WS_VSCROLL, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 240, 0, hwndParent, NULL, g_hInst, NULL) ; SCROLLINFO si; ZeroMemory(&si, sizeof(si)); si.cbSize = sizeof(si); si.fMask = SIF_POS | SIF_PAGE | SIF_RANGE | SIF_DISABLENOSCROLL; si.nPos = 50; si.nPage = 100; si.nMin = 0; si.nMax = appHeight; SetScrollInfo(g_hWnd, SB_VERT, &si, TRUE); . SetWindowLong(g_hWnd, GWL_WNDPROC, (LONG) WndProc); .... } LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND hwnd, UINT uimessage, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { ..... I set appHeight to 120 at the beginning. In response to WM_TODAYCUSTOM_QUERYREFRESHCACHE , I set the ptli->cyp to appHeight and return true (only once, of course, except for resizes) Later I create a bitmap: case WM_CREATE: { if (!done_once) { hBitmap = Test_NewDIBSection(appWidth, / *appHeight*/480, (void **) &bitmapa); hDC = GetDC(hwnd); hDCMem = CreateCompatibleDC(hDC); hOldBitmap = (HBITMAP) SelectObject(hDCMem, hBitmap); done_once = true; } .... } which works fine, however this bitmap is limited to the appHeight size, while I would very much like to scroll it down to see more. My window's scroll bar appears, but it doesn't move, as if everything there is to see is already shown. Also, the main today screen scroll bar appears if necessary - and it works fine, scrolling my bitmap, but unfortunately I need the internal scroll bar. I understand that I can probably do it manually by responding to WM_VSCROLL messages, but I doubt it would be as effective as a pro- made scrolling. Does anybody know (probably most do :-( ), how can I scroll my bitmap? I'm pretty sure that a smooth way to do it exists, but I am simply missing something and have no idea, what it might be.

    - Serial Communications: Wire -vs- Air I've got an application that uses serial communication. I select the COM port, then start listening to a data loop. If I use the wireless Bluetooth COM Port, the data I receive is: 0x1c 0x1c 0xfc 0xe0 0x0 (Loop) If I use the hardwired Serial COM Port, the data I receive is: 0xe 0x24 0xc3 0x29 0x55 (Loop) Does anyone see a similarity between the two sets of data? My Bluetooth device appears to be shifting the data, but I don't recognize anything. We have machines that send this data, and the Serial COM Port data is the correct data. The Bluetooth data is coming in wrong, but it is consistent and we receive the same number of bytes. Is there a more appropriate message board I could address this question?

When the user touches the screen,Shift creates a callout showing a copy of the occluded screen area and places it in a non-occluded location...."

    - Visual Studio Developer Certificates? Hello, I recently attended MEDC2007 and attended Jason Fuller's talk on Windows Mobile security. During that session, he talked about the special "Visual Studio Certificates" that can be installed to a device for remote debugging and tools. Unfortunately, I have no idea where to find these certificates. I seem to remember him saying that the carrier is the place to go, but T-Mobile disavows any knowledge of such certificates. I have a T-Mobile Dash and a T-Mobile SDA for testing. Can I get the necessary certificates for either of these? If so, where would I get them?

    - Creating and linking static DLLs Hi I have a question about converting my apps existing dll to be statically linked to the exe and therefore make a single large exe, rather than it loading the dll at run-time. The app uses MFC (dynamically linked) and also the dll is an MFC extension DLL. I'm not too familiar with statically linking dll's, I know that the app can statically link to the MFC dll, but I want to know if it's possible for me to easily change the dll or the main exe to link the dll statically. I know that extension dlls must dynamically link to MFC, but would this prevent me from statically linking my dll to the app? Also, how do I statically link the app? At the moment I add the .lib file to the Additional Dependencies section of the linker settings, what do i need to change to tell vs2005 to link the dll statically? Or do I have to change something in the dll? I know this isn't strictly a PPC question but more of a c++/vs question but I am using a PPC so thought I'd start here :) Thanks Matt Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121439

    - EDB and ActiveSync Hi, When a CEDB database is synchronized in an ActiveSync provider, the system will call the provider's ObjectNotify() method of the folder object. However, EDB does not call ObjectNotify() method. Are there any sample on how to track live changes when the Pocket PC is connected to the desktop PC? Are there sample codes on how to use CeGetChangedRecords()? Thanks, Herbert. Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121434

    - GPS sample and Windows Mobile 2005 Hello, I am currently developing a software that use a GPS device (with .NET 2 and Visual C#) for the Pocket PC environment (Windows Mobile 5) and I have some questions about using GPS Intermediate Driver. Firstly, my Pocket PC is a HTC Avantage X7500 with inbuilt GPS. I have founded the C# GPS Sample available with the SDK for Pocket PC and I have read all the documentation about configuring and using the GPS API. Here is my registry settings for the GPSID : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver Drivers Control Panel Configured Device "Baud" = 57600 "CommPort" = "COM5:" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver Multiplexer "DriverInterface" = "GPD1:" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver Multiplexer "DriverInterface" = "COM4:" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver \Multiplexer ActiveDevice "Context" = 305714496 "Dll" = "GPSID.dll" "Flags" = 2 "Index" = 4 "Keep" = 1 "Prefix" = "COM" I have no problem deploying the sample code in my PDA but when I try to open the device with the "Start GPS" Menu Item, the GPSOpenDevice() return null ("unsuccessful" according to the GPS Intermediate Driver Reference). However, when I try to open the GPS device with the virtual GPS COM Port (COM4 in my case) and with Serial Port functions, everything works fine. I will really appreciate if anyone can help me.

    - Project available: Connection status activex control I have tried building this myself but it is over my head. So I am offering it as a project. I apologize to anyone who feels that this newsgroup is not the correct place to post this request. We urgently require an MFC activeX control, written in eVC++ 4.0, that can be called via jscript on a PDA (Pocket PC 2002 and higher). The control needs to provide 2 functions: 1. Provide a property that indicates whether a GPRS connection is currently active. 2. Provide a method where a GPRS connection can be activated. This functionality already exists in a sample application CMHELPER that comes with the PPC SDK. What we require is that this functionality be taken across into an activeX control so that the features can be accessed via javascript. The control should have no user interface. The control should target the ARM processor. This project is available at www.rentacoder.com Bid Request ID: 673331 Bidding closes 10 May 2007 Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121417

    - Installation/Registry Problem Hi guys! How are you all doing? Scenario : Lets get to the point, I created a installation program with the PocketSetupCreator program, it really only creates a desktop setup.exe to install my VS2005 solution in the PPC. My desktop app will execute this setup.exe to install the PPC solution. My prolems: 1) I need to configure the path, serial and date in the PPC. Is there any way to do it via RAPI? I was thinking in creating a .dll in the PPC and like RAPI invoke it in the PPC trough desktop RPC ( Remote Procedure Call ) to modify the registry. 2) How do I work with registy in the PPC? I need to install my app in 2 or 3 different languages, so i need to install in the default windows/programfiles, that in each language is different. 3) Is it better to work with environment variables, CSIDL or something? Thanks! Peace. -- Alberto Cardoso Tag: Services in WM5.0 - PLEASE, HELP!!! Tag: 121413

    - Trying to implement IObjectSafety onto an MFC activeX control Let me start by saying that I am very new to c++ I am trying to load a C++ COM server into Pocket Internet Explorer and it has me beat. I am not interested in a user-interface I just need to access some WIN32 functions. I have been following the procedure laid out here for making a control that is safe for scripting : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms974305.aspx I have created a project that does nothing I am just trying to instantiate the COM object in some javascript within the emulator. The project builds without errors and the control registers onto the emulator. But that is it. The jscript throws an [object error] (see below) and the COM server is not instantiated. The full project can be downloaded from www.development.servebbs.com/downloads/gprs.zip The HTML is here: <html> <head> <title>Test ocx in the emulator</title> </head> <body> LOADING <script language=jscript> try{ var o = new ActiveXObject("GPRS1.link"); alert("Got it"); } catch(e){ alert("Failed " + e.toString()); } </script> </body> </html> I am really desperate for a solution to this so any input would be really appreciated.

Hi all,

I've got an application developed for PocketPC 2003 where a service
registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\ is loaded trough the function
ActivateService.

Now I have to translate and re-compile in VS2005 in order to execute
it on a Windows Mobile 5.0 device.

I've tryed using ActivateService, RegisterService and GetServiceHandle (even
it's deprecated since WM5.0) from setup.dll's Install_Init and Install_Exit
functions, but none of them work. In fact, none of the functions xxx_Init,
xxx_Open, etc. are being called.

The registry entry actually exists at the very moment I try any of those
functions but, as they always fail, the installation can not complete and
that registry entry disappears.

What else can I do?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure what's happening here is the securiy model has changed
between PPC2003 & WM5. In many WM5 devices, you have to have your service
DLL signed with a trusted certificate in order for it to run.

http://blogs.msdn.com/cenet/archive/2006/03/19/debugging-a-service-not-being-able-to-load.aspx
has some additional details on debugging services not loading, but I think
the best for you will be Scott Yost's article
