CE newbie question about onclick

Fri, 07 Nov 2008 06:29:08 -0700

I have a site that functions fine on an iphone but not on a BlackBerry which is, I believe, a Windows CE OS.

It appears that the onclick doesn't function. The code snippet is:

<form action="notdone.php" method="post" name="notdoneForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="menuType" value="">
<a href="#" class="menu" onclick="document.notdoneForm.submit()">
List Personnel Not Done</a>
</form>

I'm wondering if CE doesn't use the 'document' for referring to browswer objects?

I'm totally grasping at straws here.

ANY clue would be greatly appreciated.

install WinCE on laptop?

Wed, 01 Oct 2008 07:08:11 -0700

I have an older IBM ThinkPad (33mhz I believe) in my closet, and was wondering if it were possible to install a version of WinCE on it?

I know MicroSoft offers WinCE developers kit, perhaps one of these can be used to create the needed OS?

WinCE Framework 3.5 Help?

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 11:12:21 -0700

I need to deploy the cab file NETCFv35.wce.armv4.cab directly on to a WinCe 5.0 device.

The device overwrites its Windows Directory from its image when hard re-booted, so the GAC Files do not survive. Ideally the CAB files could be on the storage card because that doesn't get overwritten.

BUT I'd be happy to use
wceload.exe /noaskdest /delete 0 /noui NETCFv35.wce.armv4.cab
but it doesn't seem to work.

How can I automatically install NETCFv35.wce.armv4.cab OR what files do I need to re-copy to the Windows Directory after a hard reboot.

Thanks
Pat New Hampshire USA

Hi, i'm developing a driver under Wince 6.0... My question referred to this driver is:
is there any problem if i use the DeviceIOcontrol function inside my driver to call my driver's own XXX_IOControl function and send to it a IOCTL code?... i mean isn't this seen as a bad programming practice?... i'm looking to do it this way in order to avoid using another dll making the job of a new driver.

help me... maybe it's not the right place for this topic

Mon, 11 Aug 2008 03:20:51 -0700

hi!
my questions sound more like a beginner ones, but if you don't get annoyed and know the answer to them please help(i don't feel like starting new threads in different sections for every question from below)!
1) i have the german version of Windows Vista Home Premium . I got the original DVD when i bought
my PC (in Germany ). At the first OS installation after buying (and the only i've made until now) it was automatically
installed in german language. i would like to have it in romanian (and english in the "background"). what should i do?
can i find other language versions on my DVD, or download some language files from the internet or do I need to buy a new
DVD which has the OS (only) in english (a new licence) ?
2) i have an 4 Gb USB stick which is problematic (since buying). When i plug it to the PC the CPU load goes very high (very often 100% for
very long time, almost during the whole time the stick is connected - the running applications are freezing, or strongly slowing down).
i've formatted it into the FAT system (the default formatting
was FAT32). I know that this type of formatting is not very memory efficient, but it's getting better to some extent (CPU load is going lower (80%),
but not the whole time (it reaches 100% often, nevertheless). my hdd is partitioned in 2 drives: C:\ - NTFS and D:\ - FAT32. i've noticed that the
CPU load goes also high when operating with D:\ (reading, writing files,etc,), but it's not so critical as at the USB Stick. I don't know
if it has so much to do with the formatting, but I don't know other causes.
3)can I delete the following folders:
c:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\T emporary Internet Files\
c:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Temp\
c:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files\
c:\Windows\Temp\
and some hidden folders in the recycle bin (with some strange files with the $ symbol at the beginning of the file name)?
do they have a meaning? i've used a disk clean utility from the "accesories" section from the "start" menu, but I think there
are still many unneeded files left to be deleted. What else could be deleted in order to get more free space on HDD ?
4)When i choose a tiny memory model in the Turbo C++ 3.0 compiler i'm getting a "no stack" message. despite that the generated
.exe files seem to run normally. Is there a problem ? my applications are small (dozens of program lines and dozens of KB size
of .exe files).

Serial Port and NDrive GPS browser, sniff, spy

Wed, 14 May 2008 09:01:52 -0700

When I use GPS NDrive browser with Pocket PC, running Windows CE or Windows Mobile, I can't access serial port COMx.

It look likes NDrive uses a real serial port instead of a virtual one.

How can I get access to the serial port, to "spy" it, even in reading only mode, with my Win32 or .NET application?

Can drivers be written for WinCE or Win Mobile?

Thanx

Screensaver application on Windows CE (5.0 version)

Fri, 17 Aug 2007 01:43:11 -0700

Hello all,
I am developing a screen saver application on Windows CE 5.0, using Visual C++ and Windows API.
Has anyone here worked on such application, could you please share me your experiences? It is not easy as what I thought at first.
As what I know, Windows CE (and Pocket PC) does not support Screen saver like Desktop. In Desktop, developing a Screen saver is easy, windows API supports DefScreenSaverProc function, we just develop screen saver as .exe and just rename it to .scr
But in WinCE, we cannot do like that. WinCE does not support Screen saver, so there is no DefScreenSaverProc function, and if we rename .exe file into .scr the OS does not execute the file.
So we have to do everything by ourself.
My idea is: To start screen saver, we have a background application (a service or no-window application) which will "listen to" the system, after a predefined time (for example, 5 minutes) if there is no action on machine (no tap on screen, no press on machine's keys...) the background application will start showing the Presentation of Screen saver.
To implement this, I think about Hook technology, but as what I researched until now, Windows CE also does not support SetWindowsHookEx function.
Now I'm getting stuck.
So, if anyone has deals with an application like mine, could you help give me some ideas? How did you solve this problem? How to activate the Screen saver in Windows CE? Which technologies do you think that can achieve this?
Your responses would be kindly appreciated.
Thanks.

Problem of SmsOpen for reading an SMS

Mon, 09 Jul 2007 23:57:25 -0700

I am coding a messaging program on Windows Mobiles 6.0, but there is a problem in reading SMS. My codes of SmsOpen(…) are

SMS_ADDRESS smsaDestination;
TEXT_PROVIDER_SPECIFIC_DATA tpsd;
SMS_HANDLE smshHandle;

HANDLE hRead = CreateEvent (NULL, FALSE, FALSE, NULL);
// Open an SMS Handle
HRESULT hr = SmsOpen (SMS_MSGTYPE_TEXT, SMS_MODE_RECEIVE,
&smshHandle, &hRead);
if (hr != ERROR_SUCCESS) {
printf ("SmsOpen fail %x %d\r\n", hr, GetLastError());
return 0;
}

.
.
.

However there is an error when calling
SmsOpen(SMS_MSGTYPE_TEXT,SMS_MODE_RECEIVE, &smsHandle, &hRead).
The error message is “Another application already has the SMS system open.” And there is not error if I use SMS_MODE_SEND.
I had already searched in many books and website, but I found only code that I used. Are there anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thank you.
