    - How to terminate outstanding CeRapiInvoke() call Hi all, I use RAPI to communicate to PDA in my desktop application, and CeRapiInvoke() in particular. The application installs some components on PDA, and at some point, when the user press Cancel, I need to terminate outstanding call to CeRapiInvoke(). I found out that until PDA's part completes, this call is hanging. Is there any normal way to terminate it gracefully? BR, Alex Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124712

    - CFileDialog and GetOpen(Save)FileName I have an MFC based application in which I wanted to replace CFileDialog invocations by calls to GetOpenFileName or GetSaveFileName. When I test on emulators (PPC2003 on eVC4 and WinMobile 6 on Vis Studio 2005) everything works fine, but on devices things are not as they should. When I use GetOpenFileName I get a file dialog, but I get an extra title bar. This results in the file dialog information being shifted down so that the Open and Cancel buttons are partially hidden by soft keyboard. By extra title bar I mean that there is dialog title on the task bar, but also there is another dialog title in a blue band just below taskbar. So far I have not found any way to get rid of it. Can anyone point me at the right solution? Thanks, Henryk Birecki Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124692

    - Disabling the homekey Hi does anybody know how to disable the homekey on smartphone? I'm using vs 2005 and smartphone 2003 and WM5.0. I have tried capturing the key using RegisterHotKey (as suggested by people to solve this problem) which captures the other soft keys just fine. However for the home key it appears to miss the keydown key press so that home key continues to go to the home screen. I have seen comment about using GX.DLL but I cannot find an example... has anybody any examples? The reason I need to stop the home key is that phone is not being used as phone but to run a dedicated application. Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124691

    - Control Panel Applet title bar Hi, All Control Panel setting windows have same layout: - Title is "Settings" - Name of applet is written under it in color matching theme. - A line is drawn. - The application (Dialog) is not displayed under running applications (Start > Settings > tab System > Memory > Running Programs). Questions: 1. Is there some reusable layout available to create control panel dialogs? (I am simply calling DialogBox() function). 2. The color of (sub) title, which color does it match? Is it a system color or theme color? How do I get this color? GetSysColor or send message to today screen (HWND == NULL) ? 3. How do I keep dialog bar title "Settings" from being displayed under Running Programs? Parent window should be invisible? Should it be settings window? If so, how do I find that window?

    - AppVerifier woes Hi, I'm trying to make sense of AppVerifier logs. It's the first time I'm using it. My app does following things: Winmain: RegisterWindowClass(szWndClass) hWnd = CreateWindow(szWndClass...); while (GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0)) { TranslateMessage(&msg); DispatchMessage(&msg); } return 0; WinProc: switch(msg) { case WM_CREATE: RegistryNotifyWindow(SN_ROOT, SN_PATH, SN_VALUE, hWnd, WM_USER_SN, 0, NULL, &g_hNotify); break; case WM_DESTROY: RegistryCloseNotification(g_hNotify); PostQuitMessage(0); break; } Yet when I use app verifier, it complains about Load/FreeLibrary mismatch. I'm not even calling LoadLibrary myself anywhere. So what does this mean? Seems it's in AppVerifier's own files.

    - Issue with ceappmgr.exe Hi I create dynamically an .inf file, build the concerning cab, embed that cab in the resource of a dynamically compiled Setup.exe. When running the setup .exe it writes the ceappmgr.exe inf file, extracts the cab and runs ceappmgr.exe to install the cab. So far so good, this works fine as long as I extract the cab and write the inf file into a subfolder of Active Sync as is the 'best practice' . But if I extract the cab to another directory, invoking ceappmagr.exe throws an error: "Cannot install application because of an error in the setup file".

    - FindFirstDevice issue -- very weird I met some very very weird issue using FindFirstDevice. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and WM5 PPC SDK Following code works fine (either in emulator or real device -- imate JAQ3): int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { WCHAR * searchName= L""; ::DEVMGR_DEVICE_INFORMATION pdi; HANDLE h=::FindFirstDevice(DeviceSearchType::DeviceSearchByDeviceName,searchName,&pdi); return 0; } but , if we call "FindFirstDevice" in a function not main, it won't work (neither emulator nor real device work): like following code, it would return -1. void foo() { WCHAR * searchName= L""; ::DEVMGR_DEVICE_INFORMATION pdi; HANDLE h=::FindFirstDevice(DeviceSearchType::DeviceSearchByDeviceName,searchName,&pdi); } int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { foo(); return 0; } Or even we just call a memset to set pdi to 0 , it won't work int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { WCHAR * searchName= L""; ::DEVMGR_DEVICE_INFORMATION pdi; memset(&pdi,0,sizeof(DEVMGR_DEVICE_INFORMATION)); HANDLE h=::FindFirstDevice(DeviceSearchType::DeviceSearchByDeviceName,searchName,&pdi); return 0; } I"m pretty sure there must be something wrong with the implementation of this function -- sounds it rely on some random memory.

    - SHNotificationAdd / SHNotificationRemove Hi, I'm having problems using SHNotificationAdd & SHNotificationRemove below. Can someone tell answer the following questions? 1. If I call ShowNotification and RemoveNotification, will I have memory leaks? SHNotificationAdd is passed szMessage, which is local variable and will be destroyed at end of function. So, do I have to save the string buffer or does SHNotificationAdd COPY this to some internal buffer? If not, I must free this buffer myself after the call to SHNotioficationRemove ? 2. The icon is displayed in title bar. I read that it is a bitmask, so my icon is only black on transparent background. But still this icon is shown as black in title bar, and not in the color that is set by theme for iconbar. How can I make it use theme colors?

    - CE 5 Emulator: Which .NET CF 2? Hello I want to run a CE 5 CF 2 application. As the CE 5 Emulator (Standard) only has CF 1 installed, I'm trying to install CF 2. Which package do I have to install? ARM, MIPS or X86? I've tried to install the X86 and I could start my app, but using system.drawing.bitmap.Save(....), I get a NotSupportedException... think CF 2 is not correctly installed, although the device says that it's installed...

    - When/What to expect Connection Manager Status updates If I am application using the Connection Manager framework in Windows Mobile 6 to establish a data connection, what can I expect for the following scenarios... ...when my network loses service....does the Connection Manager just return CONNMGR_STATUS_WAITINGFORPATH? Is the app just supposed to wait until it receives CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED? ...when a voice phone call is initiated during an active data connection on a non suspend-resume capable connection (i.e. CDMA)....does the Connection Manager just return CONNMGR_STATUS_DISCONNECTED? or CONNMGR_STATUS_WAITINGFORPHONE? same as above, does the app need to just wait for CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED? ...when a voice phone call is initiated during an active data connection on a suspend-resume capable connection, but the application is not suspend-resume aware?....I believe this is CONNMGR_STATUS_DISCONNECT. If this is all listed in the Windows Mobile 6 Documentation, and I'm missing the obvious, I apologize. I'm a new developer to this framework.

    - Compressing wav files I need to compress wav files before sending them from the device. I am recording using the Waveform Audio API and was intending compressing using the ACM API. However some of the functions I would use on desktop client for processing WAV files appear to be missing (mmioOpen, mmioClose etc) from the Windows Mobile 5 /6 SDK. What is the recommended method of using ACM functionality on the Mobile platform ? Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124600

    - WZCQueryInterface not returning results for INTF_PREFLIST On newer WM5 devices and all WM6 devices (that I could tell), calling: DWORD dwStatus = WZCQueryInterface(NULL, INTF_PREFLIST, &Intf, &dwOutFlags); returns an ERROR_SUCCESS but the dwOutFlags are always 0 and no data is returned. Setting the preferred list seems to always succeed but it has the effect of clobbering all of the profiles since you can't get the original list prior. Is there a solution to this? It's a big problem that doesn't allow for a good user experience. Many thanks, Charlie Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124587

    - How to determine if volume window is active? Can anyone help me out with this problem? I need a way to detect if the Volume window is active in a native C++ app on a PPC, either WM5 or WM6. Some devices activate the volume window by pressing an up or down key on the device. Other devices don't have a key assigned to volume but you activate the Volume window by tapping on the speaker icon in the task bar. I have a timer going so every interval I check the current foreground window. If it's not my app, I want to do one thing if it's the volume window, something else if it's anything else. Problem is I don't know how to distinguish the volume window from any other window. Can anyone help? Some of the things I've tried so far: Checked window text of the foreground window: it's empty (""), I was expecting/hoping for "Volume" Checked if foreground window is same as task bar. Task bar hwnd is determined by ::FindWindow(L"HHTaskBar", NULL): Foreground window is NOT the task bar Checked if foreground window is a child of task bar hwnd: Foreground window is NOT a child of the task bar (::IsChild(hWndTaskBar, hWndForeground) is FALSE) Is this a good way to check or should I use a different method to determine if the volume window is active? Any ideas? Thanks, J144 Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124582

    - VS2005 Remote Tools Stopped Working Recently my VS2005 remote tools stopped working -- Remote Registry Editor, Remote Process Viewer, VS2005's VC++ deploy & remote debug, and so on. When these tools try to connect to the device, the connection attempt eventually just times out. If I open the Connectivity Manager Configuration window and try to test the connection, I get the message "The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available". Oddly, the Transport and Startup Server config buttons are both clickable, but don't open any dialogs. I can't be certain, but all of this seems to have started about the same time that I installed MS Project 2007, and then followed up with some Windows and Office updates. Has anyone had anything similar to this happen to them? Incidentally, I also have EVC4 installed; the two have been peacefully coexisting for over a year now. But now EVC4's remote tools have also stopped working, for what it's worth. Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated! Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124579

    - VS2005 DataSet problem Hi. I am building a Pocket PC app to test various things. In VS2005, I have a DataSet and in Server Explorer I have opened a Data Connection to a database (.sdf) on the device. Then I drop tables on the DataSet. This works OK for all tables except one, where I get a message: Failed to merge object(s). An item with the same key has already been added. This particular table has a primary key consisting of 3 short integers. As far as I can see, there is nothing wrong with this table as such. I can drop all the other tables onto the DataSet designer, only this one cannot coexist with any of the other ones. I may not be an advanced developer when it comes to working with the Compact Framework, but I am not a beginner either. Regards, Gudni Tag: how to reset timer for "Home Screen Timeout" Tag: 124576
