    - How to use an Access db in CF? I use System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection and System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand in my desktop C# app and I'm investigating porting to the Pocket PC platform. It doesn't appear that these classes are supported. Am I missing something or am I out of luck? I have an existing Access database provided by a 3rd party so using a different database isn't really an option. What kind of solutions are there for using an Access database (preferrably for both Pocket PC and desktop). I appreciate any advice. Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78983

    - Using WCEUSBSH to communicate over USB It seems that I should be able to use WCEUSBSH.sys to communicate from a PC to a PocketPC over USB, but I can find very little information. I've seen message that I should be able to use CreateFile on "\\Device\\WCEUSBSH001", but I can't find any evidence of a device by that name, even using DeviceTree. Is this the Intel version only? I need to be able to do it with Microsofts version. How does ActiveSync communicate with the device? Thanks! Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78977

    - Detecting a USB connection is made - How does ActiveSync do it?? I am building a USB communication protocol between a PocketPC and the desktop. For this project I cannot use ActiveSync. I can successfully send and receive data over raw USB serial comms (still having problems with that, but it works). However, I cannot determine the appropriate time to open the USB port on the PocketPC. I have signed up for NOTIFICATION_EVENT_RS232_DETECTED, but it only seems to work when ActiveSync is running on the desktop, which I can't have because it steals the connection. How else can I figure out when the USB cable is attached? How does ActiveSync do it?? -nick Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78966

    - DB Dev new to handhelds; which OS is best for Access synch? I will be working on a handheld capable db, probably using HanDBase, that needs to synch with MS Access 2000-2002-2003. I am only now getting any exposure to the entire realm of handhelds. #1 Both Palm OS and Mobile Windows are thriving, right? #2 Is either OS and app version going to be easier to keep synched with Outlook/Access than the other? Mobile Windows would seem to be the knee- jerk answer to this, but it wouldn't have to be true at all, since I imagine that Palm OS has made it a high prirority to have good synch with Outlook, and HanDBase claims to handle synch with Access with either OS. #3 Can't believe that MS has made this so non-transparent - but used properly, is Mobile Windows the OS and Pocket PC more a term for the "system" ie the hardware device + the OS (mobile windows)? I see such a confusion of names for the OS even on the MS site. Thanks Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78959

    - Low Power Mode & Wake-Up Timer Hello, I am looking for a PDA.with GSM / GPRS support, preferably Pocket PC based that I can switch to Low Power mode. I am then talking EXTREMELY LOW POWER (not 200 mhz), where the batteries will last for days or even weeks. The only program that should be run in this mode, is a Timer that can WAKE UP the PDA let's say every 1 or 5 hours and let it collect and send some data via GSM / GPRS and then go back to LOW POWER MODE again. Is there any such device around, or is this somethign "any". Pocket PC device can do? It would be possible to do on virtually any device if : a) The CPU speed could be controlled via software from FULL SPEED (400 Mhz) down to a few tens of Khz. Thanks in advance for any help :-) Geir Ove Norway Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78956

    - Showing a subset of items in a Listbox My combobox pulls its items from a master text file which loads the item into the listbox and also into the first dimension of a multi dimensional array. At that point, the listindex of each item in the listbox matches the row# of each item in the array, making it simple to reference the array for any updates. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can keep those references valid if I were to sort the listbox, or maybe even just show a limited subset of the items My intitial thought was to include a look up table (2 dimensional array) that would reflect the relationships of any preset groups of listbox item, but that is limited to pre-configured sets.

    - Unicode and COM - newbies should check this out Funny how I find what I'm looking for...when I'm not looking for it. I wish I had this about a month ago :-) Here's a great site for newbies (like me) learning about Unicode and especially converting between it and ASCII. There are related links at the top of the page that you should check out too. Looks like good info... http://www.devguy.com/fp/Tips/COM/bstr.htm Snipped example: the following tip is something I didn't know... Use ! (==) instead of != with CComBSTR The following are not the same: CComBSTR b1, b2; if (b1 != b2) // this is wrong { } if (!(b1 == b2)) // this is right { } b1 != b2 compares the underlying BSTR pointers and does not perform a string comparison.

    - Date Question I am trying to get the actual bytes from memory that the current date and time is stored in. Getting the bytes will compress the data since I will be saving it and encrypt it to the average user. I believe that there are 8 bytes that make up a data and they are stored in a double precision floating point number. I tried this Dim D as doubl D = cdbl(now It just underlined now and said there was an invalid conversion. With the number value of the date variable, I could at least convert it back to the byte format myself. However, it would save a lot of cpu if the bytes could be read directly. My ultimate goal is the data in a byte array so it can be easily saved. I'm not sure how to get the actual bytes from memory though. Are there any other common ways of compressing dates? Thanks for the help. Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78940

    - Keeping brightness level at 0 with the iPAQUtil.dll I am using the brightness functions within iPAQUtil.dll to adjust the brightness of the display of a model 5500 iPAQ. An issue I am having is that when setting the level to 0, the display dims to the minimum level very quickly and then reverts back. This is very consistent when the device is on AC power. Once in a while on battery power the brightness will stay at level 0, but any press on the screen reverts it back. I am trying to produce the same behaviour as the control panel brightness selection - once it's set as 0, it stays that way until changed - IE: screen taps, key presses, etc should have no effect. Note that I have 'auto brightness' set to off in the control panel. Is there something I am missing, or an additional API call needed to 'lock' the setting? Thank you!

    - How to debug ActiveX controls... I cant seem to get my ActiveX to work. I dont know where the issue is - i) either with the script code in the browser that invokes i ii) or with the control itself like it not implementing IObjectSafety correctly iii) or with the implementation of the method. I tried the following to verify/confirm there was no problem with any of the above. I test the script using a different control on my desktop and it works fine. I took Chris's sample ActiveX (thanks Chris) and added a method to its interface and tried invoking it. This control implements IObjectSafety properly When I invoke the objects method from the script nothing happens - if it had given out any error message that at least could have helped as a start pt but I seem to be just groping in dark right now I have following script code - <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript" function GreetMe( window.alert("About to invoke greet") var TestObj = new ActiveXObject("TestOcx.TestObj") TestObj.WriteThis("This is written from an OCX") window.alert("After method invocation") </SCRIPT When I execute this I just get the first alert and thats it. I put log mesg to a file in WriteThis nethod above to see if the control ever reaches there but that do not seem to execute. How do I go about debugging an ActiveX on PPC? any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated as this is getting really frustrating. Jayan Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types?

    - Database in PDA: how to improve the time of update? Hello I'm making a PDA project that uses a data base. That data base is saved in a xml file. When the application starts up, I load the xml file in memory. The application makes changes in the data base (which is in the memory of the PDA) and finally, when the program closes, it saves all data (which are in the data base) in the xml file. My question is: is there any way to save only the modifications instead of to save again all data base in the xml file? Note:In the beginning, the application doesn`t know which registers of the data base are going to modify. Thanks. Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78913

    - Connecting Pocket PC to MSDE Sql I have an MSDE database on a server "RWPSRV1", and an Access project on several clients to track loaner cars. I am attempting to create a PDA based return form using Visual Studio.Net. The server will be accessed via a wireless network (not web based).

    - (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: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? 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: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? 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: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types?

    - Pocket PC 2003 Virtual Radio emulator Hi, I'm developing on eVC++ 4.0, with SP3. I've installed Pocket PC 2003 SDK. But when I connect to platform manager, I only see one option for the emulator - Pocket PC 2003 emulator. How do I enable my eVC++ to see the other modes of the emulator. I'm looking for the Virtual radio support for the emulator. Any help is appreciated, as this is very critical for me. Thanks, AK. Tag: newbie - Explanation of XScale, ARM and CPU types? Tag: 78847

Hi all. I have been developing for mobile devices mainly in J2ME and C#, but
I want to perform some optimizations using eVC++ 4.3.

Can anybody explain the difference between XScale, ARM and the various CPU
types (such as PXA255). I have found a developers guide for the PXA255 at
Intel.

Cheers

ARM is a processor core architecture from ARM.

XScale is a technology that Intel uses in a line of their ARM-based
processors.

The PXA255 is a specific XScale processor from Intel.

So...
You can have an ARM processor that is not an XScale or a PXA255.
You can have an XScale that is not a PXA255.
All PXA255's are XScale and ARM-based
All XScale processors are ARM-based.

Microsoft has an article -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wcechp40/html/ccrefARMGuide.asp

Which details some of the differences, though not variants of xscale
