Detecting a windows mobile device in VB2008

Question

4.00/5 (2 votes)

See more:

Hi guys,

I'm new to programming. I work for a research in Sri Lanka.

In our research data is collected on windows mobile devices. I am the person who connects the devices (Known as JUNOs) and copy the data to the hard drive. But when I'm not around others should copy the data. But they haven't got IT knowledge.

I want to create a simple software which detects the JUNOs when connected, show a message that a device is connected(Ex : JUNO1 is now connected), and then a button to copy and paste data to hard disk. (Ex: Press copy button to copy data)

So if anyone can help me with this with the code it would be really helpful.
Thank you

May be i am a little late, but i have just seen this post now ...

You should take a look at RAPI (Remote API). There is a C# implementation on this site :http://rapi.codeplex.com/[^].

Using this API, you will able to create a program that detect any windows mobile (or windows CE) that connect on an usb port, and automatically copy data from it to the desktop computer.
As i remember, there is a simple demo with the code, and it is really simple.

OK, i have simplified a small synchronizer just for you.
Create a new C# project, add a reference to OpenNetCfDesktop, and this class :
(Don't forget to install Active sync, or Manager for mobile device (not sure of the exact english name)).

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;

{

public delegate void GenericHandler<t>(T param);
public delegate void VoidHandler();
public delegate int GenericHandlerWithResult<t>(T param);

public class SynchronizerSimple : Form

static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
Application.Run(new RomainTAILLANDIER.SynchronizerSimple());

Thank you so much Mr.Romain but this code is too advanced for me.I got confused looking at it.I only need to copy a file from the windows mobile to PC.Can you please give me some simpler codes.I have been looking for this for months now.I have posted in 18 forums but your answer was the most complete and trustable one I found.So I guess you are the one who can help me.

Thank you
