How to send messages from icon on the upper toolbar ?

2-Feb-07 2:49

We are using SHNOTIFICATIONDATA to show icon on the upper toolbar on Windows
Mobile 5. But we can't find out how to send a message to our window when we
click on the icon, without showing any pop-up window.

Our code:

SHNOTIFICATIONDATA* pNotification = NULL;
HICON hIconn = NULL;

hIconn = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);

pNotification = (SHNOTIFICATIONDATA*)malloc(sizeof(SHNOTIFICATIOND ATA));

pNotification->dwID = ICON_ID;
pNotification->clsid = guidPPCAlertsApp; npPriority = SHNP_INFORM;
pNotification->csDuration = 10; hwndSink = m_hWnd; pszHTML =
pNotification->_T("...");
pNotification->hicon = hIconn;
pNotification->cbStruct = sizeof(SHNOTIFICATIONDATA); pszTitle =
pNotification->TEXT("Application name"); grfFlags = SHNF_STRAIGHTTOTRAY;

SHNotificationAdd( pNotification );

Dear Bryce - read the interweb

f you have VS 2005 installed and are developing the app then just connect to the device in VS and deploy it. Make sure your project properties has the
"Deploy the latest version of the .NET Compact Framework (including service packs)" checked. It is found under "Devices".

cheers

Platform Manager server failed error!

Hi all,
I have a Embeded VC++ (4.0) application , which builds fine to run on a device having Win CE 4.2 , But when i try to build the same workspace to run on a device having Win CE 3.0. I get a "Platform Manager server failed error".

Do i need to do some configuration settings for the Platform Manager under Tools Menu?
What settings do i need to do?.

Thanks (in advance) Smile | :)

You must use eVC 3.0 and an appropriate SDK for debugging/deployment on Windows CE 3.0-based devices. eVC 4.0 only works with CE 4.0 or later devices (you need at least SP1 for CE 4.1, SP3 for CE 4.1 and 4.2, and SP4 for CE 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0 - SP2 added 4.2 support but removed support for 4.1!) There were some changes in the OS's debugging support between v3.0 and 4.0.

It's recommended to install eVC 3.0 before 4.0 if you have the choice, but it should work if you install 3.0 after 4.0.

Download eVC 3.0 from here[^]. That includes the Pocket PC 2002 SDK.

GPRS Disconnection

Member 3036542

23-Jan-07 0:47

Hi
Been working on a small app that switches the gprs connection when the network is down. The problem lies in disconnecting a gprs connection. The call to ConnMgrReleaseConnection does not work,i have heard that you can use rasenumconnections then call hangup, but i get a constant error message ras error 632 which says the structure size is invalid the code is as follows

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
public struct RASCONN
{
public UInt32 dwSize;
public IntPtr hRasConn;
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr, SizeConst = 257)]
public string szEntryName;
}

// create a single rascon array
ConnectionManager.RASCONN[] connections = new ConnectionManager.RASCONN[maxRasConConnections];
connections[0].dwSize = (uint)Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(ConnectionManager.RASCONN));

// get the entries for the ras
int concount = 1;
int cb = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(ConnectionManager.RASCONN)) * concount;
// enumerate the connections
int nRet = ConnectionManager.RasEnumConnections(connections, ref cb, ref concount);

it would seem that the dwsize is incorrect. its size is 540;
the program is designed to run on mobile 5

does anyone now a fix for this

thanks Smile | :)

Re: GPRS Disconnection

Mike Dimmick30-Jan-07 2:54

Mike Dimmick

30-Jan-07 2:54

Connection Manager in Windows Mobile 5.0 is designed not to disconnect an existing GPRS connection. In most countries GPRS connections are charged per byte, not per minute, so it doesn't cost anything to leave it 'connected'. No additional power is consumed by using the GPRS connection over simply having the GSM radio powered on, if you're not actively sending data.

Connection Manager will hang up the connection if asked to create a connection to a different APN.

I can't imagine that disconnecting the underlying connection from underneath the Connection Manager is a good idea. It's not expecting it so pretty much anything could happen. Always be wary of undocumented techniques.

formatting date time in a datagrid using CF 2.0

steve_rm22-Jan-07 16:23

steve_rm

22-Jan-07 16:23

Hello,

I am creating a PDA application using the CF 2.0 that will use a datagrid and will display time in one of the columns. The column is called "ScheduledTime" and in the sql server 2005 database the datatype is datetime.

I would like to format the time to display e.g. 21:45 24hr format.

I think the datagrid is very limited when using the CF for mobile applications as the property "format" doesn't exist for this. See my code below.

I am wondering is there another way to format time in a datagrid column using the CF 2.0.

Me.grdSupportContracts.DataSource = ds.Tables(0)<br />
                Dim dgtbc As DataGridTextBoxColumn<br />
<br />
                dgtbc = CType(Me.grdSupportContracts.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(3), DataGridTextBoxColumn)<br />
                dgtbc.Format 'Doesn't have the format property<br />

Many thanks in advance,

Steve

Hi,
I'm working with Windows Mobile 6.0 and I found 3 versions to SDK:
- SDK Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional;
- SDK Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard;
- SDK Windows Mobile 6.0 Classic.
Apparently, the Classic version is to Pocket, Standard version to Smartphone and the Professional version to Pocket phone.

Could I use the Professional version to develop to Smartphone?
