• Martin Lundberg file opened?

  <deleted> Thanks for the information... So number 1. is an easy fix. However, number 2 poses a problem for your initial suggestion... what do you recommend Read the entire train of thought on this... it seems like it would have just been easier to leave things alone and let the user decide if they want a singleton or not ... Two reasons: 1. Your implementation of instance count can't possibly work since even static variables are not shared across instances. You’d need to use something else, e.g. named mutex. On Windows Mobile (which you’re probably using but incorrectly call it Windows CE) NETCF enforces s ...Show All

• Zulbaric can not create Visual C++ Smart Device project

  Hello everyone, In Visual Studio 2005, I can not create Visual C++ Smart Device project -- when input required inputs (project name, path, etc.) in "New Project" dialog, then when I click OK, the "New Project" displays again -- without any error notifications...

• Omar Fawzi how many pushpins can I add?

  OK - I am fairly new to all this - and I have already wasted a couple of days trying to figure out the yahoo maps API to add custom mappoints/pushpins to their service, only to find out that they limit you to 200 points (which of course they disclose nowhere) - I need more like 4000 all over the US. Is this something Virtual Earth can handle, and if so, what would be the way to go about it All locations have a LAT/LON and a site nr. that is it. Thanks Are you saying there is a 400 limit for GEORSS Feeeds Well, I would assume that the implenenbtation should be able to fetch ALL from GeoRss Feed at the same time RENDERING only the ones that are visible and when map is zoomed out we would expect automatic clustering.....

  is there any method, easy or otherwise, to convert a windows forms application designed in visual studio .net 2003 using visual basic to a windows application for a ce.net smart device Thanks... not really since the platforms are different as well as .NET CF having not as many classes/methods as the full .NET Framework version. you may well need to pretty much recreate the application or rather copy and paste into the .NET CF project and take out the bits that are not supported in .NET CF and find another way of doing it in the .NET CF ...Show All

  My camera capture method below, no longer seems to works on my i-mate SP5 (HTC Tornado).. The code worked and ran perfectly for the last few months, on both NETCF2..0 and the Beta of NetCF2.0 Service pack 1, but since I upgraded my device today to the new release candidate (non Beta), it no longer works and throws an InvalidOperation Exception on CameraCaptureDialog.ShowDialog(); method.

• Divyajosephjohn bulk geocoding canadian addresses

  im looking for tool to bulk geocode canadian addresses. will have to geocode over 200, 000 addresses at first then 10-20% on daily basis. steph well, you can also buy one mappoint 2006 on cd, and let mappoint 2006 do the bulk coding, i am currently doing a mixture of both, cd version and webservice. Which version of Mappoint CD do you have 2004 or 2006 I also think the cost of using mappoint for 40,000 geocodes a day is going to send you broke. We decided it was worth it to develop in house then spend 200K+ with Mappoint. Its a real pity, mappoint does a good job, get a quote first before committing to the service. Hopefully they offer you a great rate. John. I'm in a simil ...Show All

• GinaK Trying to get address from a map

  Hello to all, I have used in the past MapPoint web service and I must say testing VE is more than great! I would like to ask this: I am creating a new map with specific Lat Long info that I have. The map is generated fine, and I have managed to create custom pushpins. The issues is that I want right next to the map to have a small area that will show there some basic information for the Lat Long point, like Country name, City name and Address. I am reading the reference but can't find something specific yet. Can you help me on this Thanks! Hi John, thanks for the answer. I did some reading about reverse geocoding after I post my first message. You are right. Hopefully they wil ...Show All

• ledwinka Problem with TAPI lineDrop on smartphones (device Qtek 8500)

  I use TAPI lineDrop routine call to drop the call in DATA mode: - rc = lineDrop(hcall, NULL, 0); lineDrop returns a positive value and I call lineDeallocateCall to deallocate handle: - rc = lineDeallocateCall(hcall); lineDrop returns LINEERR_INVALCALLSTATE and it seems that call is not in the idle state. And after that my TAPI message handler doesn't receive any disconnect messages. TAPI message handler receive disconnect message only after other side droped the line. This problem appeares only on smartphone devices (Qtek 8300 and 8500). On PDA (HP 6515, Qtek s100, MIO A-70x) these routines calls work without any problems. What is specific in TAPI lineDrop and lineDeallocateCall calls on smartphone devices ...Show All

• Syed Faraz Mahmood local.live.com Interface

  Does anyone know of any resources to build an interface within VE similar to the local.live.com interface The site has a full screen VE control with menu panels that collapse / expand, icons linked to menu panes, links to routes etc. I really like the it and can see the logical step with custom VE applications is to move to this style of interface. Is the interface code for local.live.com available John. Hmm, no, i dont read books, only Donald Duck comics on the toilet ;) But i recommend you start writing your function, and ask when problems arise. I think with the text i posted it shouldnt be so hard to do it. So John, I am in a similar situation. My client (MS) is having us wrap VE with some weird and wonderful ...Show All
