GPS libraries

Hi there,

I have heard that CF 2.0 has some libraries that directly deal with the serial port issues in GPS and also has built-in NMEA parser. Anyone has any information regarding this

Regards

    Yes and no.
    Microsoft provides a class for communicatingwith the serial ports however you need to actually write code or use a 3rd party component to communicate with NMEA devices AFAIK.

    There is a managed GPS sample in the WM 5 Pocket PC SDK under

    "C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK\Samples\Cs\Gps"
