    - (Newbie) Cant get ActiveX to work.. I created an ActiveX using eVC40 - with ATL. Implemented IObjectSafety for safe scripting and initialization. The control is copied & registered on the device fine. I followed the "Creating ActiveX for PIE" in PPC 2003 SDK instructions to access it using ActiveXObject method of JScript. The test method I invoke returns a string. I put that string in a JScript alert. But when I execute it nothing happens. Just to make sure there was nothing wrong with either the JScript or the ActiveX method implementation I ported the active code to an Visual Studio 7 project and created a regular ActiveX. And I can execute the ActiveX method fine using the same JScript on my desktop in IE. Here is the JScript code and the impl of the ActiveX method: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript" function GreetMe( window.alert("About to invoke greet") var TestObj = new ActiveXObject("TestOcx.TestObj") var greeting = TestObj.GreetMe() window.alert(greeting) </SCRIPT><FORM><INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Greeting" onclick="GreetMe()"></FORM STDMETHODIMP CTestObj::GreetMe(BSTR *pbstrGreeting AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState() // TODO: Add your implementation code her CString cstrGreeting("Hello") *pbstrGreeting = cstrGreeting.AllocSysString() return S_OK when I click the "Greeting" button on the page I see the first alert before invoking the method but after that nothing happens. It does'nt even give out any error message. What gives? TIA as usual. -Jayant Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78866

    - Viewsonic V37 Serial Port I'm using the freebie Viewsonic V37 for connecting to a serial device. I'm using a serial cable that I bought from Viewsonic and I've upgraded the OS to PPC2003. The problem I'm having is, I believe, that the V37's serial port is not capable of fast simultaneous send and receive. I could be wrong about that, but that is my best guess after hours of testing. I have a simple loopback echo device, which ties RX and TX together, such that everything the V37 sends, it should receive. When using this, I receive no characters. When I connect it to the PC I receive everything the PC sends and the PC receives everything I send. I've even put a scope trace on the serial port while sending and receiving to my actual slave device (a serial to 1-Wire adapter, connected through a null-modem). I can see my slave device responding on the scope, but the PPC does not receive the data. Even taking a wire and shorting out pins 2 & 3 (RX and TX) on the V37 serial cable doesn't work, even though that should loopback everything it sends. I rolled my own serial port code on the device, but I've also tried the OpenNETCF.io.serial stuff as well as someone else's CFSerial lib. If anyone else has a V37 and a serial cable, I'd appreciate know if this works for you. Download the OpenNETCF SerialSharp example and stick a wire into pins 2 & 3 of your serial connector. See if you get an echo back of every character you send. Thanks, Scott Hughes Engineer - Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78860

    - Resolving cdb conflicts I've looked everywhere I can think of for a solution. Does anyone know how to resolve a cdb/mdb sync conflict? If I look in the MS Access 97 mdb I can see what records are conflicting in the MSCExxx tables but I don't know how to resolve them. The Activesync conflict resolution measures only apply to appointments and the like. The Access 97 resolver only applies to Replicated databases. I'm stuck.

    - getaddrinfo on standardsdk emulator I am looking into IPv6 enablement on my client application, so I'm doing things like replacing gethostbyname with getaddrinfo. Currently I am still connecting to an IPv4 address, and getaddrinfo returns successfully on the Pocket PC 2003 emulator and WinCE .NET emulator, but not the STANDARDSDK emulator. For the latter, getaddrinfo is returning an error 8 (EAI_NONAME I believe). Is this a bug? Isn't IPv4 functionality supposed to be retained? Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78856

    - Performance problem consuming webservice from a PDA We have created a pocket pc application (.NET application) that gets the data (dataset) from a webservice ( runs on a Windows 2000 server). If we run the application on a wireless PDA, it takes about 7 seconds before the PDA gets the dataset (a small dataset with one table and 150 records). We are sure that the time isn't lost within the webservice because the data is retrieved from the database (oracle database) witin the same second. we're using already CF SP2. Personally, I don't think that the throughput of the wireless is the bottleneck. It seems to me that consuming a web service from within a PDA is just slow, even if you have to transfer only a small amount of data. Other persons must have the same performance problems ? Are they using other techniques for transferring data from a server to the PDA ? I thought web services was the way to go. To my knowledge remoting isn't supported on the compact framework. WSE is also not supported in the compact framework, if i'm not wrong. Are there any other alternatives where you don't have a performance problem? I'm using an hp iPaq 5450. If I'm using another CE device (no PDA), then my application is much more responsive. Is it possible that a PocketPC application using web services creates just a too heavy load for the processor of the PDA ? I'm wondering if an ASP.NET application wasn't a better option ? How can I improve the performance ? Can some setting (IIS setting, security setting) reduce the time ? Is the datset causing the delay?

    - PlaySound - any options besides WaveOut? I've spent the better part of...um...all night researching how to play audio without having my game's animation freeze each time I call SndPlaySound() [from my EXE resource]. Animation isn't much, equate it to the bouncing cards of Windows Solitarie... I pass the following flags, but am not getting the results the documentation implies: PlaySound (_T("Bounce3"), g_hInst, SND_RESOURCE | SND_ASYNC | SND_NOSTOP |SND_NOWAIT); Specifically these sounded like they'd help (edited for brevity): SND_ASYNC: sound played asynchronously...returns immediately after beginning the sound SND_NOSTOP yield to another sound event that is already playing SND_NOWAIT return immediately without playing the sound if driver is busy I've read that PlaySound has a lean buffer, but the files I'm working with are well under 1K (smallest is 294 _BYTES_). I've seen some free libraries and what not, but I'm really trying to keep this as dependency-free as possible (win32). Suggestions? What about calling PlaySound in a thread? Would that help? Also I see the docs refer to the SND_MEMORY flag ("A sound event's file is loaded in RAM"), but everything is RAM anyway, right? I'll be wrapping up with this YachtCE game soon and will give it to anyone who asks...just realize it's still a work in progress, and it's a tiny window because I have been working with the SmartPhone in mind... Dice rolling is pretty cool though ;-) Thanks! Mike Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78830

    - Is it possible to "downgrade" Pocket PC 2003 to Pocket PC 2002? Hi. Sorry for my English, hope you `ll understand me. I begin to write some application for Pocket PC using Embedded Visual Basic. At first I used device with Pocket PC 2002 and that was OK. Now I am using another device with Pocket PC 2003 (IPAQ 1930). But the problem is: I can not use debugger in Embedded Visual Basic, so I have to debug my application using MsgBox-s. I have read somewhere that Microsoft now does not support Embedded Visual Basic- that is why I can not work with debugger with Pocket PC 2003. Can I "downgrade" Pocket PC 2003 to Pocket PC 2002? (I have Pocket PC 2002 Upgrade Utility v-1.05) How? Is this ?downgrade" reversible? May be you know another solution? Thank you. Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78822

    - Launch application on card insertion Hello All I am trying to launch an application when a memory card (SD card) is inserted into the pocket pc. I have tried using the CeRunAppAtEvent method with NOTIFICATION_EVENT_DEVICE_CHANGE but this only seems to work when the memory card is removed from the pocket pc. It appears to do nothing when the memory card is inserted.

    - SSL Support on Pocket PC... Howdy All, We are trying to incorporate SSL support on our Pocket PC application. We can make normal HTTP calls without any issues, but when we change the web server to HTTPS and try making the calls using HTTPS we get back messages saying: System error: The connection with the server was reset. We can't tell if this is saying that the connection timed out, or if it's a different issue. We have tried installing the root certificate on the device using the information in KB 322956 but that has not helped at all. When we browse to the specific website in IE on the devices we are still prompted as to whether or not we want to accept the certificate. Does this indicate that we are not installing the certificate correctly? Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mark. Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78813

    - Newbie - Cannot delete app file after use I developed a test app for PPC 2003. Got the exe file to the device fine, executed it fine. Ran the app and then closed it. But when I attempt to delete the exe file I get an error " Sharing violation - the file may be in use". The way I am attempting the delete is: From ActiveSync (on my desktop) I do explore, in the resulting explorer window I browse to the folder where the file resides and do delete. The app is quite simple - just displays "Hello world" statically and does nothing more. So after closing it I have no reason to beleive it could still be running. What am I doing wrong? How do I know who could be sharing the app? thank Jayant Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78804

    - CeRunAppAtTime fails to schedule application sometimes I'm trying to periodically schedule an application to run every 20 seconds as an experiment on battery life on an iPAQ running Pocket PC 2003. I do this by having the application call CeRunAppAtTime with the current time plus 20 seconds as the argument. The application then exits. This seems to work for a period of time and wakes the iPAQ up when it goes into sleep mode, which is what I want it to do. Unfortunately, for no reason I'm able to determine, the application fails to be called after a few minutes. Using Scary Bear's CheckNotifications program, I can see that the program has been scheduled to run, but for some reason, it does not. If I soft reset the iPAQ, the program will begin to run immediately and continues to reschedule itself as normal. I've been able to find one give away on whether or not my application will run when scheduled. Again using CheckNotifications, if the notification has an event status of InActive, the program will run. However, if it has a status of Active, it will not. I cannot determine what this event status means or why it gets set to Active. I'm also unsure why a system reset would cause the program to run as scheduled. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. ~Dan Remove nospamman to reply by email. Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78793

How does the Webservice know where the MS Access Database is present. ie How will the windows application let webservice know the location of the MS Access database? * I thought of registry but WebService might not have permission to read it. * I thought of saving an xml file in wwwroot but it could be read only. * Web.config solution is not possible because end user is not very computer savvy, so every time MS Access database changes its path Web.config needs to chnage. * Finally I thought of Web Cache. But evertime user restarts his computer cache might get over written. Any other workable suggestions? 2. When application starts up in the pocket pc, how will it find the name of the host computer to get to the location of the webservice? Since the client's computer name is not known in advance, can pocket pc application find it other than entering the name manually. Thanks a lot. Jay Tag: 24-bit color bitmaps Tag: 78737

how can I prepare 24-bit colour bitmaps on a PC, for display on a Pocket PC?
I have tried MS Paint, but it does not seem to work.

I've been able to display 24-bit color bitmaps using eVC ... what is exactly
the issue?

I have made a 24-bit color bitmap containing a few icons in MS Paint. On
WinXP MS Paint has the option to save 24-bit bmp.

Thanks for the info. It was an imagelist problem, in the end.
