Take a look at Appforge's crossfire http://www.appforge.com/products/enterprise/crossfire/index.html[^] I think it does what your looking for. Also if it's games your interested in take a look at GapiDraw http://www.gapidraw.com/[^] as it will also let you leverage some C# in Symbian.

Right.

Odds are you will not be able to. As far as I know, the only Windows CE 4.2 platform that will support the CF 2.0 is the Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC (Pocket PC 2003). You will only get support of CF 2.0 in Windows Mobile 5.

Determining Max Image Display Size for WAP pages?

Hello,

I have a wap page in C# that needs
to output an image so that it can
be downloaded onto a WAP device.

How do I determine the maximum image
dimensions the WAP device can support?

1. The Screen Size property of the
BrowserCapabilities object does
not seem to do the job.

2. I tried using the
System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Image control,
(which apparently does the necessary
resizing automatically)
and the handset could view the image
but not download it.

Thanks in advance,

Darren

intelligent Route Navigation System

Hi
I need your suggestions regarding my project "Intelligent route navigation system using gps".
Basically its a pocket pc pda application .
1)When user enters a destination address ,the application should display a map with the current route the user is travelling ,estimated time and distance[from his current location] to reach his destination, turn by turn routes,points of interest and so on.
2) Also most importantly the application should guide and warn the user intelligently the route to take if the user is not travelling right directions to reach his destination.

I am planning to develop this application using visual studio.net compact framework [pocket pc environment] 2003. and also gps.net sdk. ,map point webservice 3.5
I am not getting how to do map and route comparisons to guide the user intelligently...

Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

playback truncated to 5 sec with GSM6.10 on verizon XV6600

Puja Bajaj27-Jun-05 1:04

We are developing an application for PDAs. One of the features of the application is to record a voice message of the user - works properly on Samsung i600 PDA, but does not work on the Verizon XV6600 PDA.

We used Microsoft's built-in voice control (using WinCE Pocket PC API VoiceRecorder_Create) to record the voice message.The same control also provides an option to playback the recorded message.

We have made the following observations:

1. The verizon device records and plays back all voice messages recorded in all other formats - PCM formats with different frequencies.

2. The verizon device playsback the message recorded in GSM format only till max 5 sec.Eg if I record a lengthy message - 15 sec, it playsback properly for the first 5 sec, and then stops.

3. If I exit my application and click on the voice file created through my application, the same voice control opens it by default and still plays back for 5 sec only.

4. If I launch any other Voicerecoder application, and try to play my file, it plays completely.

5. The file recorded on Verizon device plays back on the Samsung device properly and completely.

6. The file recorded from the Samsung device does not play back completely on Verizon device.

Our doubt is that the voicerecorder control is faulty on the Verizon device, but we did not get any mention of this on the internet.

Any clues??

You have to download and install a Windows CE SDK (Pocket PC 2003, Smartphone 2003 or the Generic SDK for Windows CE 4.2).

These are free downloads from Microsoft.

Asynchronous Mystery

DiscoJimmy22-Jun-05 8:57

DiscoJimmy

22-Jun-05 8:57

I'm having a problem I can't explain. I'm trying to create a generic class that asynchronously loads objects in the background for later use. I'm using C#/VS.NET 2003 and programming for an IPAQ 5500 series.
The code is very simple, just a function which loads 3 forms into 3 objects, and releases a mutex after each one is loaded. Then it has 3 properties, one for each object, and in the get accessor it waits on the mutex and returns the object:

private workerThreadProc()
{
mutex1.WaitOne();
mutex2.WaitOne();
mutex3.WaitOne();

frmtest = new frmTesting();
mutex1.ReleaseMutex();
frmload = new frmLoading();
etc.
}

public frmTesting TestingForm
{
get
{
mutex1.WaitOne();
return frmtest;
}
}

Now if i take just that method and run in on a separate thread inside my form, it works. But if I create an instance of this class and the class runs the thread asynchronously in it's constructor, the method starts but then seems to sleep. Any call to the three properties will get to mutex?.WaitOne(); and then hang.
Anyone have any idea why this is? It doesn't happen on the desktop, and if I explicitly set the thread priority to Above Normal, it doesn't happen either, but then my form is unresponsive until it's finished and I may as well have loaded them synchronously.

Any ideas?

Wince Message Queues Opening Error

21-Jun-05 0:29

Hi! I am facing problem in Interprocess
communication using message queues of wince (version 5.0). The project is MFC based and I am using Embedded visual c++ version 4.0. When I am runing the project it gets successfully executed and message queses also gets created successfully but I am unable to open message queue for reading or writing purpose. I am getting error in MQopenqueue(). When I checked the Errorcode it says "MQ_ERROR_SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE
Cannot connect to the Queue Manager"

The source code is as below.

QUEUEHANDLE g_hRecvQueue;
QUEUEHANDLE g_hSendQueue;
WCHAR g_szRecvFormat[MAX_SIZE];

PROPID aPropID[2];
PROPVARIANT aPropVar[2];
int iProps = 0;

aPropID[0] = PROPID_Q_PATHNAME;
aPropVar[0].vt = VT_LPWSTR;
aPropVar[0].pwszVal = szPath;
iProps++;

aPropID[1] = PROPID_Q_QUOTA;
aPropVar[1].vt = VT_UI4;
aPropVar[1].lVal = 1000000000;
iProps++;

qp.cProp = iProps;
qp.aPropID = aPropID;
qp.aPropVar = aPropVar;
qp.aStatus = NULL;

// Create
DWORD ccNeededSize = MAX_SIZE;
HRESULT hRes = MQCreateQueue (NULL, &qp, g_szRecvFormat, &ccNeededSize);
if (hRes != S_OK) {
AfxMessageBox(TEXT("Message Queue creation error"));

}
hRes = MQOpenQueue (g_szRecvFormat, MQ_RECEIVE_ACCESS, MQ_DENY_NONE, &g_hRecvQueue);
if (hRes != S_OK) {
AfxMessageBox(TEXT("Message Queue open error"));

}

Please suggest the possible solution.

Problems controlling CPU frequency on laptops with 533 MHz FSB

Vitaly Kashkarov19-Jun-05 21:34

19-Jun-05 21:34

We use presice timing in our program for timestamping different events. We rely on processor frequency measurements to get high accuracy results. When we ported our program to laptop we had to deal with Power Measurement to guarantee that CPU runs at maximum frequency. We’ve created own power scheme that gets activated by the program and lasts for its lifetime.
This power scheme has the following settings (the same for AC and DC):

POWER_POLICY power_policy;<br />
<br />
// Disable throttling <br />
power_policy.user.ForcedThrottleAc = 100;<br />
power_policy.user.FanThrottleToleranceAc = 100;<br />
<br />
// Disable idle timeout <br />
power_policy.user.IdleTimeoutAc = 0;<br />
<br />
// Set idle sencitivity threshold in % of CPU activity<br />
power_policy.user.IdleSensitivityAc = 1;<br />
<br />
// Set processor dynamic throttling policy <br />
power_policy.user.ThrottlePolicyAc = PO_THROTTLE_NONE;<br />
<br />
// Set preference of using a fan to throttling<br />
power_policy.user.OptimizeForPowerAc = TRUE;<br />
<br />
<br />
MACHINE_PROCESSOR_POWER_POLICY processor_power_policy;<br />
<br />
processor_power_policy.ProcessorPolicyAc.DynamicThrottle = PO_THROTTLE_NONE;<br />

This power scheme when activated keeps CPU at its maximum frequency.

That was the case until we started working with the newest laptops based on Pentium M 760. The settings in the power scheme above do not prevent the processor from throttling.

I’ve got a test that measures time between two external events and counts the number of processor clocks using RDTSC instruction.
If executing on a laptop based on Pentium M 755 (2GHz, 400 MHz FSB), the test shows that with the power scheme (see the settings above) activated the processor runs at top frequency all the time, no matter what CPU load is.
The same test running on a laptop based on Pentium M 760 (2GHz, 533 MHz FSB), or on Pentium M 770 (2.13GHz, 533 MHz FSB) shows that frequency goes up and down depending on CPU load.

Please, give me a hint on what I can do to keep CPU frequency at its maximum.

I’ve also checked BIOS settings, the only two options available are dynamic frequency switching and always low.

All laptops run Windows XP Pro SP2, we write the code in C++.

Any ideas are welcome.

C#: Modifying existing dialogs (p/invoke)

ben ogle17-Jun-05 12:54

17-Jun-05 12:54

Hello. I have a pocket PC and I need to draw one string (or add a label) on the incoming call bubble. So my question is this:

How do you draw a string on a dialog that is not yours using the coredll functions? I would definately settle for being able to add a "static" or label. How would I do that?

I used spy++ and found out that the incoming call dialog bubble window hierarchy goes like this:

"text": (class)
-"Phone - Incoming...": (Dialog)
-- "": (Working)
--- "": (DISPLAYsomething)
---- "": (Webview)
----- "Accept": (ATL::BUTTON)
----- "Ignore": (ATL::BUTTON)

I am able to set text on any of those, but unfortuately they did not use a label for anything on the form other than the buttons. So that means I cant just find the existing label and change the text.

Is there a way to hook the WM_PAINT event to call a c# function after doing the regular paint? If so will I be able to use TextOut or something similar to draw a string on the form? Which window should I draw on? The Webview one?

I have been fighting with this for a while. Thanks.

Ben

Scaling JPEG in evc4?

rammle16-Jun-05 20:05

16-Jun-05 20:05

Hi everyone!

Is it somehow possible to load, scale AND save JPEGs in evc4?
It would be no problem with GDI+, but I must use unmanaged code, so I do not have the compact framework. (Someone told me there would be no saving for Image at all for embedded)

Are there other solutions than GDI+? Or can I include GDI+ just like for desktop windows also under native? I found some imaging.h and gdiplusimaging.h in the PPC2003 SDK, but no MSDN entry or whatever for it and also no way to make use of these (boring Poke tongue | ;-P

) files.

Or does anybody know another easy way for my problem?

Thanks,
Roland
