• dustinto Exception thrown when Instantiating a Bitmap in NETCF2

  Hi Part of the application that I am working on loads & saves bitmap files. During the LoadBitmap function the code throws a "Value does not fall within the expected range." exception when instantiating the new Bitmap and I don't know why. It seems to work intermittently on the emulator and I have had no problems when deployed to the device, however I need to understand why it's occurring and I can't find any information. strBitmap contains the path to a valid bitmap file (this is tested before the call to LoadBitmap) public void LoadBitmap(string strBitmap) { try { /* Exception thrown here*/ Bitmap thebmp = new Bitmap(strBitmap); //this code is okay this.SITEPLAN = thebmp; } catch (System. ...Show All

• Pi314159 Connection Manager

• AMSS Excluding Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.dll

  I'm building a WM5 app that doesn't reference the PocketOutlook dll directly but it's always included in the output of the project when it is built. Is this assembly required or might another dependency be referencing it I'd like to exclude it to cut down on the size of the package if possible. Thanks. That did it, thanks. Then how do I keep it from being included I delete it and it is automatically added back into the bin/Release directory of my application when I build and then subsequently included in the cab file. Click on a file (I'm assuming it's in "Detected Dependencies") in CAB project and make sure "Excl ...Show All

• Keith Chapman control.invoke

  Hi all. Can someone push or punch me in the right direction here Using the CF 2.0 I have an application that is doing an async poll of a TCP listener for data. When the data arrives, I want to update certain forms with the values. In a nutshell, The data arrives. I determine what type of data it is and where it should display. I populate properties of a class with the data. I then raise an event to signal the data is here and the properties have been populated. It is here where my problems start. Based on the the data I will determine what form I need to interact with. I need to call a sub from within that form to populate the controls on it. I was using invoke to call the sub , but the data would not display because the ...Show All

• slein "I'm not ready to publish yet"

  Is there any way for a smart content plugin to stop the publishing progress because it isn't ready yet eg it is busy doing some work to create something and hasn't completed I think what would be good Joe, is for an event handler similar to the HTMLcapture event handler... If you could put a flag that i can set to cancel the publishing process into generatepublishhtml() that would be grand.. at the moment i have to throw an exception in there to cancel which is a bit ugly Actually I think an exception is the right thing, although it would be better if we gave you a documented exception to throw and documented the behavior of Writer encountering that exception during GeneratePublishHtml(). I'll forward your feedback along ...Show All

• MikeTennor SmartPhone WM 5.0 emulator browser address bar-numeric values

  Hi, The browser address bar on a SmartPhone (WM5.0) emulator does not allow me to enter numeric values. I want to enter an ip address ( http://127.0.0.1 for example) but it wont allow me any numeric values. How do I get around this problem since the name of the machine I want to connect to also has numbers in it. Thanks, -Suri Sorry but i can enter the numeric values. Please note that since by default the mode is text mode, so you will have to do carry out multiple presses of button to reach next value. For example, to type '2', you will have to press '2abc' labelled button 4 times quickly like when you typing SMS. Hope this helps you out. -Thanks, Mohit ...Show All

• gudel Activity Complete Event?

  How do you know when all activity has finished The current Onxxxxx event fire even though the tiles are still being loaded. Take the OnEndZoom event, tiles are still missing when the event is fired, and they continue to be populated long after. i see no events that are fired when all activity has finished. anyone have any pointers or ideas thanks! Rob The tiles are simply images, the idea is that the event has finished when the html is there not when all the images have downloaded as it can take several seconds if not longer for those images to come down. Since they are just images you could iterate through every image inside the map and verify it has loaded. Do a web search for checking an image has loaded ...Show All
