    - Creating Virtual COM Ports? I'm developing an application that will create and open for output, virtual "COM" ports. I will be sending GPS NMEA strings, either real time, or from a file, to these virtual ports. I've found the following code, which seems to work up to the point that is here, BUT, now what do I need to do to make the virtual port visable to other applications so that they will see them as a COM port option. I'm sure it has to be added to the Active part of the registry, but do I add it to the registry myself, or is there some API that I should be calling? Any code examples that show what I need to do? Also, I "ASSUME" that I can use "hDevOpen" handle to write the strings out to(?). Any help and assistance is GREATLY appreciated. Thank you. - Steve #define RFCOMM_CHANNEL_MULTIPLE 0xfe HANDLE hDev, hDevOpen; PORTEMUPortParams pp; TCHAR szDrvName[6]; // // Create a virtual COM port // int CreateVirtualPort() { int i, rc; memset (&pp, 0, sizeof (pp)); pp.channel = RFCOMM_CHANNEL_MULTIPLE; pp.flocal = TRUE; pp.uiportflags = 0; // Find free instance number and load Bluetooth virt serial driver for ( i = 9; i >= 0; i--) { hDev = RegisterDevice (L"COM", i, L"btd.dll", (DWORD)&pp); if (hDev) break; } // See if driver registered if (hDev == 0) return -1; // Form the driver name and save it. wsprintf (szDrvName, TEXT("COM%d:"), i); // Open the driver name and save it. hDevOpen = CreateFile (szDrvName, GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL); if (hDevOpen == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { DeregisterDevice (hDev); return -2; } VirtualPort_Handle = hDevOpen; wcsncpy(VirtualPort, szDrvName, 4); SetDlgItemText (GPS_Settings_hwnd, IDC_GENERATED_VIRTUAL_PORT, szDrvName); DWORD port = 0; DWORD dwSizeOut; rc = DeviceIoControl (hDevOpen, IOCTL_BLUETOOTH_GET_RFCOMM_CHANNEL, NULL, 0, &port, sizeof(port), &dwSizeOut, NULL); return 0; } Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card?

    - How To hide an app from task switchers? I've done an evC++ app that shows battery as a little barat the bottom of the screen. I want to hide the App from task switchers in order to avoid being closed when "close all app" are selected. First I've tried creating the windows with the extended style WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW set, and it works and hide the app for the control panel-memory applet-task switcher and for WISbaar Advance 2, but not for some others like Vbar. Then I've found this link related to Windows 2000: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0500/c/ that talks about creating a hidden main window with extended style WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW set and a Child window with WS_EX_APPWINDOW turned off. I've tried it, but WS_EX_APPWINDOW isn't supported on pocket pc, and if I hide the main window the child window is also hidden (but the app doesn't appear in Vbar). If I show the main Window, even without content and border, then works but the child window doesn't remain as WS_EX_TOPMOST and also it appears in Vbar. The last try was only the main window, hidden and paint directly to the screen (hDC = ::GetDC(NULL);) It works. The app doesn't appear in Vbar and the battery is shown, but I can't interact with the window. I've an ON_LBUTTON_UP to show a dialog for closing the app and I cannot show it in this mode. I've not more ideas: Does anybody knows how to hide completely an APP from taskbars and remain visible and clickable? It have to be psiible because I know some app that do this, like the icons in menubar and many others. Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 97041

    - how to measure response time of a Mobile Web Application I'm trying to measure the response time of a mobile web application developed for Pocket PC's. I'm accessing the application using an iPAQ and want to record the time it takes from the inital request and to the arrival of the last byte of the response, which is in fact TTLB (time to last byte). However, I could only find ACT for measuring TTLB. But ACT works on a desktop or server. I would like to measure the response time over a real GPRS network on the mobile device.

This operation returned because the timeout period expired". I have a breakpoint on the first line of code in WinMain, and it is not hit.

    - Ras Autodial I have an application where I would like to have a connect automatically redial when the connection is dropped. I have noticed on embedded CE that the Internet Options/Connection in the control panel has an option for an Autodial name. I have looked in the documentation and can see that there is this Ras Autodial thing that I can put in the registry. Now I assume that this will cause a dial to occur when the user opens an internet connection. Does anyone know if the Connection Manager in Pocket PC supports this? I think I can set it up so that it dials a connection when a browser page is open. Is this the Autodial functionality? Also they mention something about Autodial-compatible dialers. Does this mean that I might have to write my own dialer? Thanks. Gene Chang Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 96956

From my research it looks like this function might not be support on all devices. I also know I can get the free space from a call to CeCreateFile and passing in the name of the volume, but MSDN says that this only works on CE 4.2 and older devices. So my question is, if I want to find free space on any PPC or smartphone which is the better function to use? Thanks, Matt L Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 96952

I can automatically recreate my files after a cold reboot and I can execute them from the \Application\Startup directory in the Symbol but they all run at once and they need to be run in specific order. I was going to put them in a batch file so they would run in the correct sequence. Is there any inbuilt scripting facility in PPC2003 that will do the job?

    - To Microsoft: Serious behaviour of PPC 2003 SE password system Hello, this post is addressed to microsoft mobile system developers. I have written a password application using the system's "redirect" mechanism to link it into the system, as described on the microsoft pages. There is a strange behaviour, when many resource comsuming applications are running (e.g. Agenda Fusion and Pocket Informant together). When the device is turned on, then the system's password screen is starting instead of mine. Even a "test password cpl" with just a messagebox coming up is not starting. The systems seems to have so much "load" that my application start is re-"redirected". I have also tried "password applications" of other developers which face the same problem. Only a soft-reset will get the 3rd party password application back to work. This is not a memory problem, as my test device has plenty of MBs free. Is this a system bug ? Kind Regards, Robert Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 96938

    - BioAPI Hello, I'm thinking of buying a HP IPAQ hx2750. I'm interested in developing using its fingerpint reader. I know that older devices such as h5450 implemented the Biometric API (BioAPI) but I don't know if the hx2750 does. I've already send my question to HP, who told me to ask Microsoft because hx2750 uses Windows Mobile 2003. I can't find any information in MSDN so I hope someone has a clue here. I also hope my post is suitable here. Thanks Rafa Llarena Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 96937

    - install "rotate screen" feature hi, my acer n35 does not have the "rotate screen" feature. It has PocketPC 4.20.0. Is there any way to install this feature? Because the usb cable is at the bottom of the device, and it's so stupid, so I have to rotate the device by 180° on my smal desktop. No cradle available for it... really stupid. -- -Gernot int main(int argc, char** argv) {printf ("%silto%c%cf%cgl%ssic%ccom%c", "ma", 58, 'g', 64, "ba", 46, 10);} Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card?

    - How to configure Pocket Outlook for full messages? I'm configuring Pocket Outlook with the Configuration Service Provider EMAIL2. The following, from the documentation, works: <wap-provisioningdoc> <characteristic type="EMAIL2"> <characteristic type="{D671C70B-8EE3-4881-8045-2AEE6F731B55}"> <parm name="SERVICENAME" value="NewPOP"/> <parm name="SERVICETYPE" value="POP3"/> <parm name="INSERVER" value="pop"/> <parm name="OUTSERVER" value="smtp"/> <parm name="AUTHNAME" value="myuser"/> <parm name="AUTHSECRET" value="passwordl"/> <parm name="DOMAIN" value="llan.ll.mit.edu"/> <parm name="REPLYADDR" value="user@domain.com"/> <parm name="AUTHREQUIRED" value="0"/> <parm name="LINGER" value="5"/> <parm name="NAME" value="Joe User"/> </characteristic> </characteristic> </wap-provisioningdoc> I would like to be able to have that configuration download full messages instead of just the headers. I've tried adding <parm name="RETRIEVE" value="4294967295"> and <parm name="DWNDAY" value="4294967295"> because I saw those when I queried the Provider after manually changing it. It does not make a difference. I think there is something else that needs to change. Can this be done? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.... Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card?

    - Serialized io Hi I am using evc4.0 for building an app; not using .NET Compactframework. Is there anyway I can do serialized read/write to a file? I dont know of any serialization apis other than the serialization support in .NET. In that context, is it possible to invoke .NET function calls(..aka managed apis) from my application? If so, please help me with some pointers. Thanks Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card? Tag: 96921

    - Context Menu on All Files? I'm working on an IContextMenu interface for archiving data. I've found plenty of info on assigning the IContextMenu interface to specific file types that Windows CE already recognizes, but how can add this interface to any file type regardless of whether or not Windows CE knows about the type? thanks in advance, ed Tag: How to prevent file deletion on a memory card?

Hi all,

I would like to know if it is possible to prevent a user to remove files
from a memory card (without write-locking it)?

Thanks a lot.

The only way is to keep a process running in memory that opens the file.
Make sure the share mode is FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE.
