    - RegisterWindowMessage Help Hi, I am using embedded visual basic 3 and pocket pc 2002. I am trying to get my application to communicate with another app, so that it sends a message when it is opened and closed. I found out about RegisterWindowMessage and GetMessage but am unsure about how to use them. Would someone be able to give me some advice on their usage, preferably with some examples?

    - How to edit year of DTP control on SPWM5 device. Hi, I made one test program with one DTP(Date Time Picker) control. This control working fine with emulator, I am able to change the "Year" field without any problem. When I run this program on the SPWM5( HTC 3125 and cingular 2125) device, it does not allow me to edit the "Year". It allow me to edit only date and month field on the device. The control details are:- CONTROL "",IDC_DATETIMEPICKER2,"SysDateTimePick32",DTS_APPCANPARSE | WS_TABSTOP,7,20,104,11 Is this known issue on some spwm5 devices? On other platforms like SP2K3 and SPWM6 my test program working fine. Thanks, Indra Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 127063

    - wired keyboard for Windows Mobile 5 devices? using a handheld PC as I'm looking for an external keyboard for my smart phone (Verizon XV6700, same as HTC Apache or Sprint PPC-6700). I tried bluetooth and would prefer a good old fashioned wired keyboard that would plug into the phone's mini USB port. Does anyone make one of these? I am not seeing one. It's amazing that they make these great Windows enabled phones and iPhones and you're on your own if you want to use a simple ps2 keyboard/mouse! Or does anyone know anything about connecting the phone to a Win CE or PocketPC 2000 handheld? (ie NEC Mobilepro 770, 790) Those have nice keyboards and decent screens too if you can somehow get it to act as an external "monitor" for the phone. The handheld PC has a serial cable, PCMCIA slot, IR and CF slot. The phone has a mini USB plug & mini SD slot. I would prefer a wired solution, if it's not too hard. I have the old eMbedded tools 3.0 for the handheld (VB, C++) and Vis Studio 2003 & 2005 for the Mobile 5 phone and a *wee* bit of experience wiring & programming a microcontroller to do serial communication. Any ideas, web links, warnings, etc? Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 127058

    - Problems with an eventhandler I have a very strange problem - it only occurs with CF 2.0 and one particular PDA (from TDS Recon). I kept getting a "native error", which I eventually tracked down to an "access denied" error. This appears to happen when the program leaves the handler which is listening for data on the serial port. Using Debug, I can track it all the way to the End Sub - then it falls over. The CF 1.0 version of the same app runs fine on the same PDA, and the 2.0 version runs fine on other PDAs. IOW, I haven't a clue where to go from here.

    - IMailSyncCallBack/Pocket Outlook(Messaging) Platform: Windows Mobile 6 Application: Pocket Outlook (Messaging) Program Description: Created an Email Client in my application using Win32 API and MAPI. I'm able to create and submit my message to Pocket Outlook, but the message resides in the Outbox until the next synchronization (Send/Receive set @ 5 mins). However, I need to send the email as soon as possible, and I've read about COM objects such as IMailSyncCallBack, but I can't find any examples of how to use this interface properly. A lot of the material that's on the Internet is very limited, and it's hard to decipher. Maybe I'm confused on the concept of custom transports (and honestly, I don't want to create one if I don't have to), but isn't there a way to just use the default transport and synchronize, without having to provide the implementation details for the abstract class IMailSyncCallBack? Since MSDN states this as a COM interface, this is what I've been trying to do, however to no avail: Code: CLSID clsid; LPOLESTR pProgID = L"PocketOutlook.Application"; //Don't think this is right.. hr = CLSIDFromProgID(pProgID, &clsid); IMailSyncCallBack *pMSCB; CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED); //Following Returns E_NOINTERFACE... Therefore, the CLSID is incorrect. hr = CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_HANDLER, IID_IMailSyncCallBack, (void**) pMSCB); if(SUCCEEDED(hr)) { //pMSCB Methods go here pMSCB->Release(); } else { //Error! MessageBox(hWnd, _T("Instance Failed!"), _T("Warning!"), MB_OK); CoUninitialize(); return(-1); } Any help would be greatly appreciated. -kvh Was this post helpful to you? Why should I rate a post?

    - WaitCommEvent timout I have a loop in a separate thread that reads data from a COM port. The loop in the thread checks a flag to determine when to exit. My problem is when I try to stop the read loop it hangs on WaitCommEvent when there is not data coming from the COM port. Since overlapped is not supported in CE, what is the best way to make the WaitCommEvent time out? I can force the issue by using TerminateThread or closing the COM port, but I want to let it exit gracefully if possible. Thanks.

    - Dealing with charset between different applications (Java/C++) Hi, I have some doubts and I hope you can dissolve them. I'm using as my target machine a Pocket PC with Windows Mobile SE 2003. I have a client written in Java and a server written in C++. I have to send characters such as =E8,=F2,=E0 and so on. I suppose that if I send from java application such characters and I receive them in a char array,they'll be misunderstood right? The charset in use on the Pocket PC is ISO8859_1 (discovered through java application). If I send bytes with this encoding,how can I deal them? wchar_t? And how I send responses to the client? send is defined as: send( IN SOCKET s, IN const char FAR * buf, IN int len, IN int flags ); which it doesn't use wchar_t. Please give me some advices.

    - Emulator to open local file on PC Hi, Related to a question I asked before, I'm using CF3.5 with VB.net and trying to get the emulator to open a local file on the laptop hard disk - so far unsuccessfully ! (although it works fine on the PDA) I'm also using a database sqlserverce - which the emulator can find ! The database file is located in the application root directory "C:\vb\pda" However when I use the same code to try and open another file e.g. image or text file I get a directory not found error Here is the code to get local file path: Public Function GetAppPath() As String Return System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName( _ System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase) End Function However when I try the following code it can't find the file / directory Bigpicture.image = new bitmap("\Program Files\test1\remove.jpg") Here is the code that successfully locates the path for the database file: Public pth As String = (System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.GetName.CodeBase) + "\MyDatabase#1.sdf") (Although when I show the 'path' with a Msgbox statement, it says "\Program Files\test1\MyDatabase#1.sdf" which I find confusing (test1 is the name of the project), however the application path is "C:\vb\pda" ! I've tried the same code to open a local file, but it never finds it - and I've tried all variations ! I read somewhere that the emulator can access the "My Documents" folder on a PC, but I don't know how to do this ? Any help would be appreciated !

    - Garbage Collector Trauma Hi I have an application written in VB.NET for windows mobile 2005 device. In addition I have 2 unmanaged DLL's written in C which the VB app uses. The app runs absolutely fine until the system garbage collector gets triggered, at which point one of my DLL's (in which I create a separate thread for some sound recording task) thread gets suspended and never gets up after that. At this point my application just stops working. Is there any way I can mark my THREAD as GC-SAFE so that GC just bypasses it during its sweep operations. The intriguiing part is, if I manually trigger the GC with the following lines (executing these lines quite regularly) GC.Collect() GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers() GC.Collect() then it seems to be working fine, even when the GC is virtually always on. Anyone has any say on this please advise as I am not convinced with calling the GC commands from within the application. Cheers Sid Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ?

    - Setting a static IP / Registry values in hex vs. hex(7) (CE4.2) I'm trying to programmatically set a static ip address / gateway / mask on my device. There's no API so far as I'm aware so I've tried writing directly to the registry. Dumping the registry before and after setting a static IP address manually gives me: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\P5001\Parms\TcpIp] "DefaultGateway"=hex(7):\ 32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,00,00,00,00 "Subnetmask"=hex(7):\ ... [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters] "ContextSettings"=hex:\ b8,0b,00,00,00,00,00,70,d0,07,00,00,89,13,00,00,88,13,00,00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters\Interfaces \P5001] "ActiveSettings"=hex:\ b4,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ ... But after writing these values in manually, the ip addresses dialog comes up with empty entries. If I dump the registry now I get [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\P5001\Parms\TcpIp] "DefaultGateway"=hex:\ 32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,2e,32,32,32,00,00,00,00 You'll notice that the registry type in the first case is hex(7):\ and in the second is just hex:\ Could this be why I'm not setting these values correctly? I can't see any way of writing a registry type as hex(7) vs hex RegSetValueEx(m_hkey, pcszKey, 0, REG_BINARY, (PBYTE)pData, cbData) Thanks for any suggestions.

    - VS2008 #^$@!$ and its wizards OK, so I migrated from VC6 and eVC to Vis. Studio 2008, and it is the pits.... The latest migrane headache: I needed a quick utility so I created a new Smart Devices dialog based project. Added a couple of controls to dialog, and started connecting them to code. Double click on a button expecting that this will cause "add OnClick" to the MFC class based on that dialog. Instead I get "Add/Remove operation is impossible, because the code element fileName is read only". All other wizards like add new variable, or add message handler fail also. I have some other (complex) programs that I "imported" from eVC. In these projects wizards do work. How do I enable them in a new project?? Yes, I do know how to do these things manually...

The code snippet that I use is: IWMPPlayer *pWP; IWMPSettings *pWPSet; IWMPControls *pWPCtrl; CoInitializeEx(NULL,COINIT_MULTITHREADED); HRESULT hr = S_OK; CComBSTR bstrVersionInfo; BSTR mybstr; hr = CoCreateInstance( __uuidof(WindowsMediaPlayer), NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, __uuidof (IWMPPlayer4),(void **)&pWP); hr = pWP->QueryInterface(__uuidof(IWMPSettings), (void **)&pWPSet); hr = pWP->QueryInterface(__uuidof(IWMPControls), (void **)&pWPCtrl); mybstr = SysAllocString(L"\testmp3\Alarm3.wma"); //hr = pWP->openPlayer(mybstr); hr = pWPSet->put_autoStart(TRUE); hr = pWP->put_URL(mybstr); Issue No.1: All the hr's are expected values except for put_URL() which returns a S_FALSE - which I later found is ok. When I alternatively try to use the openPlayer method it returns E_NOIMPL which is also supposed to be fine for WMP version 10 according to MSDN docs. But inspite of all this there's nothing happening on my mobile device. What am I doing wrong??? BTw I also tried using get_controls and get_settings instead of queryInterface method - still nothing. The process seems so straight forward - but I'm clueless as to what's going on. Also, I tried using a proper URL instead of a file name - still zilch. Issue No.2: When I try to include atlhost.h to my sln it returns an error that CAxWindow is not declared. I'm able to compile and work the sln fine with atlbase.h and atlwin.h. Why is there a problem with atlhost.h. Issue No.3: If I ever get to solve issue no.1, I want to try invoking WMP in the windowless mode. The MSDN docs talk about the IOleInPlaceObjectWindowless interface to achieve this, but I'm not clear on how to use it. Any pointers there will be appreciated. Sorry for the long post - but this is really driving me crazy - what am I missing out??? Any help here will be hugely appreciated!!!

    - WM5/WM6, changing color of menubar possible? Hello, I want my app to change the color of the menubar. I'm using native C++, non-MFC Win32. I'm using the SHCreateMenubar(...) function in my dlg proc's WM_INITDIALOG handler as shown below, using the documented SHCMBF_COLORBK flag. The call returns success, yet the color never changes. I've tried moving the call to WM_ACTIVATE, and didn't have any better results there. Any ideas? ---------- <...snip...> case WM_INITDIALOG: // error handling omitted for clarity // init dialog - specify shell elements visibility SHINITDLGINFO tDlgInfo; memset(&tDlgInfo, 0, sizeof(SHINITDLGINFO)); tDlgInfo.dwMask = SHIDIM_FLAGS; tDlgInfo.hDlg = hDlg; tDlgInfo.dwFlags = SHIDIF_SIZEDLGFULLSCREEN; SHInitDialog(&tDlgInfo); // create menubar SHMENUBARINFO tMenuBar; memset(&tMenuBar, 0, sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO)); tMenuBar.cbSize = sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO); tMenuBar.hwndParent = hDlg; tMenuBar.dwFlags = SHCMBF_COLORBK; tMenuBar.nToolBarId = IDR_MAIN_MENUBAR; tMenuBar.hInstRes = g_hInst; tMenuBar.clrBk = RGB(100, 0, 0); bResult = SHCreateMenuBar(&tMenuBar); break; <.../snip...> -------------- Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ?

    - Phone logs Hello everyone, Need to access the phone' log history - Incoming, outgoing, missed etc. I cannot find any info accept for MSDN showing P/Invoke. Downloaded a VS solution which has both C# and a VB project. Both compile and run but the Phone test shows incorrect info! This application was created with 2003. The only thing it does do correct is how many records there are (used a loop with different amount of log entries). I have waded through lots of web sites and have found no new material - everyone points to the msdn article/sample which does not work. Anyone knowing how to accomplish this task or know of a resource please let me know! -James Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126904

    - Capturing stylus input anywhere on the screen Hi, I need to capture the stylus input, when the stylus is pressed anywhere on the screen (outside the bounds of my application), much like the "write anywhere" option of the transcriber. I was able to create a SIP (soft input panel) application, and I can capture the stylus input in that application window. If I use the SetCapture() function, I can capture the whole stroke, only if it started within the bounds of the SIP, and later dragged outside the window bounds. But how can I capture it when the stroke starts outside the bounds of my application ? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126896

    - PowerPolicyNotify(PPN_UNATTENDEDMODE,TRUE) doesn't have desired ef Hi All, I have a .NETCF2 app written in C# that p/invokes into the native power API to set the power policy during execution of the application. The application needs to keep executing even if an attempt to suspend occurs. I discovered that PowerPolicyNotify() can be called to set a state called unattendedmode which prevents the device from truely stopping execution. I am using an Ipaq HW6915 running windows mobile 5 and the Microsoft Messaging and Security feature pack. I call PowerPolicyNotify with the PPN_UNATTENDEDMODE flag and the result returns true. This might be wrong as my p/invoke declaration maybe incorrect, here it is: [DllImport("coredll.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Unicode)] private static extern bool PowerPolicyNotify(int dwMessage, int dwData); basically I call this function like: bool bResult = PowerPolicyNotify((int)PPN_Message.PPN_UNATTENDEDMODE, (bState == true ? 1 : 0)); The application runs a worker thread that is using a PUSH type mechanism over HTTPS. When the request returns with a action result it calls back into the main thread and brings up a notification. If I manually switch the device with the power button when the notification returns the display activates and shows the notification ok. If the device decides to suspend after its own timeout things go very hairy. The notification does not wake the device and once the device is manually resumed the worker thread appears to have stopped. It doesn't even resume the code and make another request. I cannot debug it as its not running over activesync but over GPRS. I can get over it by manually changing the device power policy not to switch off the device but this is a config overhead. Also the application sometimes freezes with a wait cursor once it resumes after a deep suspend like this. I could look at why but I don't want the device going into a deep sleep. Is there anything I'm doing wrong or something else I should be doing? Is this just down to the device implementation of this policy itself? Am I correct to assume just one call to set this policy at app startup is enough? Many Thanks Richard Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126890

    - Audio buffer problems on WM5 Hi, We are developing an app for Windows Mobile 5.0 PPC and Smartphone that requires audio capture and play using wave API. We have 2 thread time_critical priority threads handling the capture and playback. We are using CALLBACK FUNCTION it the waveOutOpen/waveInopen fucntions, Currently we have 25 buffers each allocated for capture and playback. The buffer size is 160 bytes of 16 bit samples at 8Khz. SO we are buffering 25 x 10ms for capture and playback. The capture is working fine, however the playback works very well for about 20 seconds then starts to stutter after a couple minutes it comes back good for 20secs then goes bad for 2 minutes agains and so on. Can anyone suggest how many buffers we should be using typically and how what size the buffers should be. Thanks Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126880

    - Popup Dialog in Pocket PC (custom / localized message box) How would I create a popup dialog in Pocket PC similar to the message box? I am aware of the fact that a modal dialog will fill the screen. How would I create a custom window that will popup up on top of the current screen? The reason I need to do this is to create a message box where I can replace the text in the buttons with localized versions (such as French). Maybe there is a better way to do this. Using the French version of Windows Mobile would solve this, but I have to use the English version. Any ideas? Thanks Timothy Dean Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ?

    - Displaying asian font glyphs on a "Western" PDA Is it possible to display East Asian glyphs (Chinese, Japanese) on a western based PDA. I have an application that works fine on a PC, and on WinMobile5 emulator with Japanese image. In the first case I use Arial MS Unicode or MS Gothic font. On Japanese image emulator I just use built in font. If I use a "Western" PDA device, or emulator with English image, all I am getting are "squares" even when using MS Gothic (I also tried others) font. Is there something I need to do to enable display of Chinese/Japanese characters? Cheers, Henryk Birecki Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126868

    - ConnMgrEstablishConnectionSync I had this piece of code working perfectly before, but now it doesn't ZeroMemory(&datos_gprs, sizeof(datos_gprs)); datos_gprs.cbSize = sizeof(datos_gprs); datos_gprs.bDisabled = FALSE; datos_gprs.dwPriority = CONNMGR_PRIORITY_USERINTERACTIVE; datos_gprs.dwParams = CONNMGR_PARAM_GUIDDESTNET; datos_gprs.guidDestNet = IID_DestNetInternet; retorno = ConnMgrEstablishConnectionSync(&datos_gprs, &gprs, 10 * 1000, &estado_gprs); When code reaches the call to ConnMgrEstablishConnectionSync, I see it tries to connect (the two arrows in the taskbar appear), and then the function fails. I use GetLastError and FormatMessage to read the error message and it says that this function can only be run in Win32 mode. If I try to open a web page with Internet Explorer just after it is able to connect... why? Tag: how to create icon on title bar with popup windows ? Tag: 126865
