    - Strange RAS/WebService problem We have developed a VB.net application for Pocket PC devices, which download data from a VB.net webservice. We are currently implementing the RAS dial-up functionality (using the Sapphire libraries). On a test device (a Symbol) with a built-in modem, this works fine. The connection is made, and the data is downloaded from the webservice. However, on the actual device (an intermec 700c), which dials via a Siemens MC35 modem, we get a WebException on the call to the webservice, even though the connection is made successfully. Apart from using different hardware, the only difference is that the Symbol modem requires the extra modem dial-string command of +GCI=FD in the dial up connection, to set the region to the UK. If we try this on the Siemens modem, we don't even get a dial tone. Has anybody used this type of modem, or can tell me the correct dial-string commands, or has any idea why this should make a difference to a web service call? Thanks, Ian.

    - REWARD: chr() not working for Chinese "Locale" Hi, I have a real stumper of an issue...I am creating a string, character by character by doing a: Do S = S & CHR(X) Loop while .... The value of X will randomly vary from 0 to 255 (FF). And, with my Smartphone's "Locale" setting to "English", the string is built of the proper individual characters representing the specified values for X. But, if a user's Smartphone has their "Locale" set to "Chinese", the CHR() function doesn't appear to create the proper characters for X values above 127 (highest ANSI code). For example, if the sequential values of X are 237, 207, 45.....if I then loop through the string and read the ASC() of each individual character, I will get 31, 31, 45 when the "Locale" is Chinese. If I instead use CHRB(x), then the resulting ASC() values will be 169,169, 45 for a "Chinese" locale (NOTE: using the alternate chrb() method still works fine on "English" locales) I'm thinking that this is related to some Unicode issue, and that the characters representing codes 128-255 are invalid for a Chinese "locale". But, this is just a guess. This is a real-pain of an issue to fix because I can not reproduce the error - I have to keep "bugging" a [very helpful] Hong Kong user to test different trace/debug versions on their "Chinese" local phone to see if it fixes the issue, but this is not fair to them... So, I am offering a reward of a FREE copy for one of my products: http://www.omnisoft.com/products.asp For anyone who first posts the solution to this issue... Thanks a bunch! -John Cody Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85367

    - How to use the StretchBlt to display bmp file as a size as I want? hi,all In my EVC4 project, I need to show a 800*600 bmp picture to a window which size is 80*50, I do it in the window's paint function: Paint(CDC& dc) { CDC memDC; memDC.CreateCompatibleDC(&dc); HBITMAP oldBmp = (HBITMAP)::SelectObject(memDC.m_hDC, m_hBitmap);//m_hBitmap is the my bmp picture's handle StretchBlt(dc.m_hDC,0, 0, 80, 50 , memDC.m_hDC, 0, 0, 800 , 600, SRCCOPY); memDC.SelectObject(oldBmp); //Copy the content from Memory DC to current DC dc.BitBlt(0, 0, 80 , 50, &m_MemDC, 0, 0, SRCCOPY); //here, the picture was showed. But the size is not exactly as 80*50, it is about 90*40 } Does anyone happend it before? And also, in msdn, in stretchBlt(), it says "The only raster operations Windows CE supports in the dwRop parameter are SRCCOPY and SRCINVERT. Windows CE does not support mirroring. " What does mirroring means? Thanks Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85365

    - USER_AGENT string for PPC Phone Edition We are writing a web app with ASP.NET and it will have features for SmartPhone and PPC Phone Edition that will allow one click dialing of displayed phone numbers. We have figured out how to detect SmartPhone but the only PPC Phone Edition device we have (Audiovox PPC4100) sends a USER_AGENT string that is identical to a regular PPC device. Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a different DeviceID for the Phone Edition? If so, what should it be? Thanks Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85360

    - position of SIP I use SipSetDefaultRect( &rect ) to specify the soft keyboard's location in my app. It runs well on the emulator as well as some real PDAs like the X3i, HHP9500, T-Mobile PPC... But on the new iPaq 4705 the keyboard does not move off its default position. Does my technique miss some thing or this is because of Windows 2003 SE. This is the first PPC SE I work with.

    - SQL Server CE and PDA and C# Hi all, I wanna test some things with my Pocket PC 2003 based PDA and SQL Server CE. My question is: Can I develop a "standalone application" for Pocket PC using the SQL Server CE without creating a remote access to a "real" server ? The example I found (this one with the golf results) on msdn creates a few tables using a remote machine with SQL Server 2000. That is not what I want to do. Also this example doesn't work because of some libs that are wrong. The example uses a Class named Engine under the SQLCeEngine Package. I have a class SQLCeEngine in the same package and use thisone. Then I developed a little application that creates a database using "CreateDatabase" method of this SQLCeEngine class. That works fine. But when I try to create a connection using the same connection string as for creating, I always get a exception with the message the property "provider" should be wrong. Can someone post me an example code for creating a database and establishing the connection including the connection string? Thanks in advance Olli Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85357

    - MFC problem In http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dncenet/html/wincenet_cepcc_app.asp Mike Hall discusses at the end, compatibility issues with MFC on WinCE4.2. My situation is that a device driver for a CF A2D device has been built with MFC3 targetting Pocket PC 2002 devices (eg iPaqs). This requires: - The device DLL - mfc300.dll - mfc300d.dll - docview.dll With a little dexterity I have been able to install and program the device with EVC 4 on a Pocket PC 2003 (iPaq) device. I want to run the A2D device on an embedded CE 4.2 device: Intrinsyc CefrBoard (PXA255). I can't run the device install (via activesync (AS)) to the device when the image is up becuase AS install says the device is not suitable (** see footnote). So I try tried the copy mode. I can get all of the files except docview.dll. When I try to copy it from the iPaq the system won't let me (says its busy). Have tried rebooting device and copying (via activesync and evc File tool) but fails. A rebuild of the device driver with MFC4 is in order but don't have source code. Any ideas?? ================ Footnote: Its a real pain that Activesync install won't let you install PPC2003 devices to embedded CE.NET 4.2 devices when using the same device hardware (ie CF) and embedded COU is XSCAL (same as iPaq). Surely tthis should be an option (you decide) liek some of the Socket device installs. Is there a way around this. I have partially built a program that snapshots file system and registry before and after an install and differences. Not quite complete yet though. -- -- David Jones Senior Lecturer School of Electrical & Computer Engineering RMIT University +61 3 99255318 Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85310

    - CeAppMgr shows "invalid setup file" message Hi. I'm trying to use CeAppMgr to install my application. I've created an ini file which refers to a cab file in the same directory as the ini file. When I try to install, I keep getting the following message: "Application Manager cannot install this application on your mobile device due to an invalid setup file. Reinstall and try again." When I simply copy the cab file over to the device and click on it, it installs fine. Thus, I'm assuming something is wrong with the ini file. Here's what it looks like (note that there is no linefeed after the last line-- the same as in an ini file which I have used successfully). Can anyone see anything wrong?

    - BitBlt operations overwrite existing bitmap controls in the dialog I am using Visual C++ 6.0 to design a dialog-based GUI. I first put a few CStatic bitmap controls in the dialog with ResourceView, then I decide to draw a solid square and a few circles underneath as background. To draw the background, I first created a compatible memory device, then draw on the memory device, finally use Bitblt function to copy the memory device context to the current device context. The centers of the solid square and circles are not static, actually every second my software redraw them. However, I found only for the first second the CStatic bitmap controls are displayed in the dialog, then it disappeared, obviously was overwritten by the "background". It confused me since the same codes I wrote in eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 worked perfect for PPC2003, and the bitmap controls were never overwritten by the background. I partly solved this problem by setting the visibility state of the bitmap controls to off and then on for every second. However, I do not like the flicker associated. Could anybody please help me solve the problem? Thanks in advance.

    - Conversion mdb/cdb hangs iPaq I have a 7MB Access DB, with one table and two indexes. I am attempting to copy it to my iPaq, but at about 2.7MB, the iPaq hangs, bringing the copying/conversion process to a dead stop. I've looked at the data, hard-booted the iPaq, done everything I can think of, but cannot find a cause or solution. The table has about 33,000 rows, and 7 columns (3 text and 4 integer). The text columns don't exceeed 64 characters. Has anybody out there had a similar problem? Any advice? The funny thing is, this used to copy over.

    - Opening files (fopen) and memory buffering Embedded C++ 4, MFC I want to open a PDB file (read only) and dynamically access the contents of the file. I need to leave the file open for the duration of the application. My question is, when I open the file and get a pointer to its contents, will Windows make a copy of the file in memory (duplicating it in storage and heap), or will I be accessing the file directly from storage? The alternative is to serialize all of my objects from a file. When I serialize, though, I am loading all of my data into memory, effectively making a copy of it. So it will exist in storage, as well as on the heap. I am trying to avoid this by storing the data in a PDB and only retrieving a pointer to what I need and using it directly from storage. So instead of having a member variable, I have a get() function that retrieves the variable direclty from storage when I need it. If the file gets copied to a buffer when I open it, though, it kind of defeats the purpose. I am not saving any memory and would be better of just serializing. Thanks.

    - Power button problem All, I noticed a problem with the usability of my PPC 2003 when running my application (written in eVC4, hidden window, basic socket operations, some database and some UI processing). It seems that after a long usage (half a day) whenever you press the power button to shut down the device, it takes around 20 seconds to actually action it. During this time the device's screen is still on, although the device is not responsive. Eventually, it does shut down the screen and presumably suspends all the running threads/processes. That reproduces consistently and as soon as I stop my application, the power button re-becomes responsive. I was wondering if anybody else noticed these effects and whether anybody could give some explanations about what actually is going on with an application when the user presses the Power button, what could cause it to behave as explained.

Another question: if I want to install the CF Framework only if it's not already present, how would I represent that in the inf file? Thanks.... Dan Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85255

    - Managed SocketException at HttpWriteStream:Write+0x185 Hi. While stress testing an C# CF app designed to upload binary files, I have been connecting, disconnecting, and then reconnecting my IPAQ (Pocket PC 2003) to the network. Sporadically I get the following exception: A Managed SocketException occurred at HttpWriteStream::Write+0x185 Unknown error (0xffffffff) HttpWriteStream::Write+0x185 HttpWriteStream::copyTo+0x28 HttpWebRequest::startSending+0x5d HttpWebRequest::startReceiving+0x53 Connection::startReceiving+0x29 WorkItem::doWord+0x36 Timer::ring+0x59 I have found a posting on the web ( http://dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/29/147616.aspx ) which describes an almost identical exception which someone found in the Compact Framework Final Beta. Mike Boilin from MS replied that it was a bug in the compact framework. It appears that the bug still is not fixed. Can anyone point me to a workaround? Thanks...

    - Problem with Virtual Switched networking in emulator I set the PPC 2003 Emulator to use Virtual Switched networking (the Test was successful). I then go in the emulator, connect to a share on my local PC and select a file to copy. When I paste the file in a folder local to the emulator (ie: My Device) I get a "Bad network path. ..." error. How can I solve this problem??? I used to do this process using NAT but I need Virtual Switched networking because my application has problems to receive data over winsock due to NAT.

    - ntext column with 256 chars does not ger synch Hello all, I have an SQL table with a ntext column. That column contains data with 256 characters and more. I have also a pocket pc with SQL CE 2.0 with the same table/column and an ntext datatype. Everytime I sync and the data (SQL server) in the column has 255 charaters and less the sync will work successfully. This same column with 256 characters and more will not get sync on my pocket pc 2003. The row will get created but no data for that column. Initialy, on the SQL server, my column was a nvarchar(2000), i thought that could conflict with SQL CE because nvarchar datatype has a max character of 255. But the result didn't change. I also ran an update statement on the SQL CE DB to make sure the column could hold more than 255 characters and I was successfull since it's an ntext. The queries for the sync are being done through http. Could that be the issue? Is there some sort of configuration that I missed? NOTE: I'm using appforge. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Pat Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85230

    - Speech engines on CE i'm looking into Speech engines to run on retail PocketPC and SmartPhone devices. have seen this site here that shows different engines: http://www.microsoft.com/speech/evaluation/thirdparty/engines.asp but the only one that mentions CE is ScanSoft. does anybody have a list of the engines that support CE, and conform to the SAPI interfaces? also, do any of these offer an evaluation period? Thank you, casey http://www.brains-N-brawn.com Tag: COM port development on Pocket PC Tag: 85229

I am just starting a new development project using a
CompactFlash device in a Pocket PC. Is there a good
resource (I have looked under .NET CE Framework) that
explains how to communicate with a serial port? On the
desktop MSCOMM32.DLL works fine, but couldn't find its
equivalent on CE.

Thanks.

Hi,

You can download CFSerial from my web site, or Serial from
www.opennetcf.org. Both are free.
