Detect the extra 512MB
Sorry, if this is not the right group for my question and please point me to
the right one. :)
I've got an iPaq 3765 with Compaq's single slot expansion slot. From the
System's Setting, the iPaq knows the expansion pack is there and using the
battery from the expansion pack. However, it doesn't regonize the 512MB CF
which is connected to the CardBus Adapter slided into the expansion slot.
My Windows 2000 has no problem plug-and-play with the 512MB CF on a CardBus
Adapter.
Do I need to have a driver install for the iPAQ? If so, where to download
the driver? Thanks. Tag: Sync with Excahnge from IPAQ Tag: 87355
support for xsd.exe
Blankhello folks,
it seems that the auto-generated dataset class from a .xsd schema file does
not compile
properly. e.g., it complains about the non-existant 'Browsable' in the
System.ComponentModel and sure enough, the Object Viewer confirms this.
so, my question is is there an alternative tool for the Smart Device project
that can generate a compatible typed dataset class from a schema file?
any insights would be appreciated.
by the way, as you may have guessed, i am attempting to use the same
database module both for the desktop solution and the smart device solution.

how to feed online calendar data into PocketPC Calendar without de
Question : how to synchronize online calendar data into PocketPC Calendar
without personal desktop use?
My objective is to transfer simple calendar data e.g. in an xml/vcalendar
file format from a website directly to PocketPc outlook. Need some
developerâ??s guidance as how to go by doing this and what specific
technologies will be effective.
Abstract Implementation thoughts in my mind right now:
1. Host a website to get calendar data from an online user;
2. Some how transfer that data online to one or more registered targeted
PocketPCs; may be in XML format or Vcalendar format
3. Build some light PPC application that takes that incoming raw Calendar
data and synchronizes it into the PPC Calendar.
My know-how of technologies:
Experience in Java/C++development
New to visual studio; willing to learn .net compact framework
Willing to learn C# as it is recommended for java developers
Equipment at hand:
Toshiba PocketPc e740
Palm Visor Pro, Palm OS v3.5
Any help/advice/suggestion will be greatly appreciated as I am new in this
development area and any mobile developer advice will put me on the right
track.
Thank You,

If I run the cab file directly on my device, it works perfectly.

Advice for WebService Data Downloading
Hi,
I am currently developing an application for a handheld (ipaq 5455) that
implements SQL CE 2.0 with Framework 1.1. The application will call a
webservice to retrieve its data and create the necessary datasets. Once the
data is downloaded, it will save it into the local database. The problem is
performance.
Could you recommend a good way of efficiently sending data to the handheld?
Right now I am sending the entire dataset down and then dropping the data on
the handheld. Itâ??s quite expensive for large tables, and I am sure there is
a better way.
Here are some considerations towards the issue:
================================
- The server will use MSDE as a database because of the customer's cost
requirements.
- Some of the tables will contain more than 1200 rows.
- The data communication with the webservice is on a separate worker thread.
Thank you in advance for your time and efforts,

"Two solutions are required for VB.NET. The first contains the Smart Device
project called PocketApp. The second solution generates the .msi file and
contains the projects CustomInstaller, Pre-Build and Setup. The
CustomInstaller and Setup projects are equivalent to the C# projects and the
Pre-Build project is a C++ Makefile project; it does not contain any C++
code and is only used to specify a pre-build event. The VB solutions are
shown below."

PTvncHI for VGA released
Hi all,
PTvncHI, our PPC VNC client specifically designed
for VGA PPC's is now available from Handango and
will shortly be available from PocketGear.
PTvncHI is compatible with WCE 2003 and 2003SE
devices though it was specifically designed with VGA
(480*640) devices in mind. If you have a WCE2003
QVGA device (240*320) then PTvncGPRS is a better choice.
For those of you who don't know, VNC software allows you
to remotely view (and control) one device from another, in
particular PTvncHI (and our older software PTvncGPRS and
PTvncS) allow you to view (and control) a PC from your PPC
(or Smartphone - PTvncS).
You can connect to your PC via WiFi, GPRS or via
Bluetooth(Activesync) or straightforward USB(Activesync).
PTvncHI (PTvncGPRS and PTvncS) will all connect to most
PC VNC servers eg. PTeSVNC(supplied), UltraVNC, TightVNC
and RealVNC.
With VNC servers that have server-scaling (eSVNC, PTeSVNC
and UltraVNC) you can view screens up to 1280*1024 (or 1024*1280)
without server-scaling and screens of any size with server-scaling
(eg. a 1600*1200 PC screen at transfer size 800*600), with VNC
servers that do not have server-scaling (RealVNC, TightVNC) the
max PC screen size you can view is 1280*1024 (or 1024*1280).
With a compatible VNC server PTvncHI (etc.) (optionally on
the server) allows file transfer either way.
PTvncHI has 3 viewing modes - full-screen, no-zoom and zoom.
Full-screen is exactly what it says, your entire PC screen is
resampled to 640*480 (or 320*240 for non-VGA) so you can
see the whole thing on your PPC.
No-zoom mode displays the pixels as transferred so you get
to see all or a portion of your server screen depending on
the server resolution and server-scaling options.
Zoom mode either zooms into no-zoom mode *2 or zooms out *2
depending on the size of the transferred screen - for larger transfer
sizes (where only a small area is visible in no-zoom mode) zoom
mode zooms out instead of in.
In PTvncHI (only) in no-zoom or zoom modes if less than 80%
of the height/width of your server screen is visible then a small
window will appear in the bottom-right corner of your PPC screen
giving a view of the entire server-screen. You can tap on this
window to move quickly to any location on the server screen and
you can tap/hold/drag the small window around the PPC screen -
eg. if you need to see the bottom-right corner of the server screen.
Please try the trial version before buying - if you have any problems with
a version of PTvnc please let us know and we'll endeavour to solve them.
bye

Moving SQLCE from PPC2002 to PPC2003
We have a VB.NET application running on PPC2002 devices with a SQLCE
database. The customer sets up any new devices by running the CF SP2
installer over activesync, and then copying over and clicking the SQLCE cab
files (sqlce.dev.ppc3.arm.CAB and sqlce.ppc3.arm.CAB)
However, the latest devices the customer has bought are PPC2003 devices, and
when they attempt to install the above SQL files, they get a message to say
they are incompatible with the system.
Is is just a case of installing different SQL Files, or is there more to it?
I have found a suggestion on another forum that the files;
sqlce.dev.wce4.armv4.CAB and sqlce.wce4.armv4.CAB should be used, but the
fact they have WCE rather than PPC in the filename makes me think they're for
the CE.NET environment, rather than PPC.
Can anyone shed any light on this?

Programming beginners How-to and tool selection

Thought I would try to create app's for the PocketPC and need a starting
point.
First:
Any good books that takes you through the basics? And then through the
(semi-)professional, including programming for network/serial/database apps.
Second:
What tool is preferred? I have downloaded the eVC++ tool and its related
SDK's and emulators for Pocket 2003. I also have VisualStudio .NET 2002
available. What is the better choice?
Third:
I am a reasonably skilled programmer, having developed some Win32 commercial
app's using Borland C++ Builder 5 and embedded systems on custom hardware
(mainly Motorola 8 and 32 bit processors). In addition, beginning Builder 5,
I studied one of the "bibles", i.e. "Programming Windows" by Charles
Petzold. Will any of these experiences be specifically useful when
developing for PPC or is it a new animal?

Fatal Application Exception
I have been developing an application in Windows CE.Net using the .Net
Compact Framework and C#. Data is saved to a local Sql Server CE database and
then transferred wirelessly to a central server. The device has to open a
connection every 5 minutes, transfer all records and then disconnect.
I have been running tests to verify the capacity of the database, if, for
example, the network goes down and transfers cannot be made. I have disabled
the device from connecting to the network (although it will still try every 5
minutes) and have built the number of records up to about 10,000 records. At
this point, a Fatal Application Error message is raised, saying that the
application has performed an illegal operation and giving the Exception as
0Xc00000fd. Doing a quick search on Googal shows this to be a stack overflow
error.
I have not been to catch the error during a debug session. There seems to be
no specific point at which this error occurs.
Thinking that the error was down to lack of memory, I have adjusted the
breakdown of RAM between the Object Store and program memory, giving the
program memory an extra 10mb to play with. This has had no effect and the
application still crashes, before the extra memory is anywhere near used up.
Is this error down to memory or something else?

ActiveSync know what to pass to each application or is there particular
coding methods used I need to include? Also what validation does ActiveSync
do to check that the data it is passing is correct and it has not sent a
number instead of a letter?

Start an app with a timer
I want to start an application from within another application. The app that
is started must be started by a timer that works when the device is off.
Today im using Process.Start from opennetcf but that only works when the
device is on (I think).

Uninstall Question
(I Accidentally posted this message prior to its completion earlier.
Here is the full message:)
I have written a .inf file, and used CabWiz to create a .CAB and a
.dat file for installation of my Pocket PC app. The installation
works fine, and the install directory structure on the PPC is as
follows:
Program Files
My Company Name
Common Files
My App #1
My App #2
where "My App #1" was already installed (along with the "Common Files"
folder).
I would like the uninstaller to just uninstall the "My App #2"
directory and subdirectories, and not the "Common Files" directory,
who's files are shared between multiple applications. Is there a way
to do so? (The common files are set to overwrite upon installation.)
I tried using the CE_COPYFLG_SHARED 0x80000000 option, but that didn't
work. I guess it only works on .dlls.
Any help would be appreciated.

Pocket PC connect to SQL Server 2000
I have read a lot of articles and I am not so sure if I am on the right track
about Pocket PC application Access to Sql Server 2000.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Only the following 2 senarioes can be used to Access SQL Server 2000
1. ASP.Net Pocket PC Application
2. Windows Pocket PC Application calling XML Web Services hosted vis IIS
Pocket PC is a different platform to Win CE.
SQL CE can not be installed on Pocket PC platform. Tag: Sync with Excahnge from IPAQ Tag: 87223
file size limit .cdb file
Have been using a PPC database application with SprintDB Pro for a few
years and it always has worked fine.
I now however come to the file size limit of the .cdb file, which is 16 Mb.
I can postpone the trouble for a bit by making the database more relational
and working with joins, but this slows matters down and eventually that will
fail to make the file small enough as well.
Would there be any workaround for this?
I am thinking about working with multiple .cdb files or some other file
format.
If possible I would like to keep using the SprintDB Pro application as I
think it is very good and I have spent quite a few hours developing it.
Posted in the group microsoft.public.pocketpc as well as I wasn't sure what
the best group for this was.
Any advice on this greatly appreciated.

Calling a DLL from a smart device application?
Hi,
I created a DLL in embedded c++ 4.0 (project WCE Dynamic-Link Library) that
exports a simple function that returns an int.
I can call that function in a c# console application, using the [DllImport].
But when I try to do exactly the same in a smart device application, I
receive the following exception:
â??An unhandled exception of type 'System.MissingMethodException' occurred in
rundll.exeâ??
Are any differences calling a DLLâ??s function from a console application or
from a smart device application? Is the creation of DLL different, depending
from what application Iâ??m going to call it?
Thanks. Tag: Sync with Excahnge from IPAQ Tag: 87212
Windows mobile 2003 2nd edition help
I have an app that runs fine on all older windows Pocket PCs but just tested
a Dell Axim X50 with Windows mobile 2003 2nd edition and I find that the app
by itself failed to run the first time although now that I've hooked the
VB.NET IDE to it that seems fixed. Is there something there that I need to
work on? Also, more important, I have a label that has a dark blue fore
color and no back color, however on the new X50 it shows with a cyan back
color! And a text box on the screen has a very dark blue box at both ends.
Is there an update for VS.NET that I need??
