• Steve Whitley Which Platform?

  I have written an application using VS 2005, and installed it on a pda(s) running Windows Mobile 5.0. Now, what I want to do now, is to load the same application on to a Windows CE 5.0 environmnet as well. Looking at it, it should work The main question I have is that once loaded on either enviroment, I need to know which one the application is running. If the application is running on WM 5.0 follow a set up route of say a) or if it is CE 5.0 then do b). Not too much differnce to be honest, but I was wondering if there was some system variable that I could look at, which would indicate the environment - WM 5.0 or CE 5.0 Let’s take a closer look at your declaration… Here’s my question: how you've come up with L ...Show All

• pricejoel icmpsendecho() and Icmpapi.h

  Hi all, i have written a little MFC app and am just trying to get an icmpsendecho() to work however i get this error: fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'Icmpapi.h': No such file or directory does anyone know how to get it working i thought that the library was Iphlpapi.lib which i have included in the build as i am using other IPHelper functions. I hope someone can help, thanks Martin Hi Martin, It seems that problem is in library. In Windows CE .NET 4.1 and later, you have to compile with 'Iphlpapi.dll', not linking to Iphlpapi.lib.

• NathanM Using DirectDraw in Windows CE 4.2

  My work is Nevigation system developing. This system's OS is Windows CE 4.2 and CPU is armv4i. Tool is Embedded Visual C++ 4.0(sp4) at my desktop. And important thing is I must use Directdraw. First, I used 'ddraw.h','ddraw.lib' in DirectX SDK. But in Embedded Visual C++, that didn't compile. So I searched all my hard disk, and found out those files in 'Windows CE Tools\wce500'. Second, I used those files, complie and build are success. But when I moved execute file to Nevigation system, that didn't work. Message was '.... can't find some linked files....' (this message is not accurately, because that was written by Korean) I think that is 'dll' problem. Third, I searched 'ddraw.dll' in my hard disk, and fo ...Show All

• Dan Miser hook Keyboard , to AlexY and any helper

  Hi, Could anybody tell me please how to use Alex Yakhnin hookkeys class. http://blog.opennetcf.org/ayakhnin/PermaLink.aspx guid=84b95802-76d7-499c-b266-e2251ab15706 i want my application to detect any key pressed in the keyboard, even if the application was in the background. thanks in advance. A few things to note. This keyboard hook catches only the hardware keys, i.e. the SIP presses will not be catched. The vkCode member of the KeyBoardInfo structure that is returned as a parameter of the HookEvent contains an ASCII code of the key that could be converted to the char. But you will need to add a few more checks. Take a look at this link for ideas: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Programming_Languages/V ...Show All

PanMap(null,null,new VELatLong('YourLat','YourLon')); []'s Yep, Mauricio is right. You can also use the VEMap.SetCenter and VEMap.SetCenterAndZoom methods to change the map location. ...Show All

• Mehdi Mahdloo Map events not firing in Firefox 2

  I just upgraded to Firefox 2. Event though this is still a release candidate ( i know ), the map events are not firing on my app. The events in question are "oncontextmenu" and "onchangeview". These are the ones i use at the moment and so i don't know bout the other events. Will Firefox 2 be supported in the near future A lot of people are already switching, and I have to know what to expect (Question for the VE Team) Thank you. Good work Marc!

• K-RoCk how to detect if phone is "turned off"

  Hi folks, Some of our customers have reported a strange intermittent problem with thier WM5.0 devices. Apparently our application loses it's GPRS connection, and when the user tries to make a call, they are informed that the phone is "turned off" and they are asked if they want to turn it on. Once they do that, our app reconnects and starts sending data again. The app works fine after a device starts up, this happens after the device has been working for a while, it's almost like the device has gone into flight-mode. 1. Any ideas why this might be happening 2. Is there a way we can programatically (vb.net 2005, .netCF 2.0, WM5.0) check to for this condition and turn the phone back on Our app will try to send data ev ...Show All

• pappascd Finding distances

  Hey, Could someone point me to documentation on how to find distance between to locations via their lat/long or another way to do what i'm trying to do I have a list of locations and their latitude/longitude and I want to display a map that zooms out to display a minimum of 10 locations near a location that is typed in. Ok it is a little complex becouse the world is not flat (shock!) its a sphere (sort of). If you don't care about accuracy and the points are within a few hundred miles then you can go with simple trig. square root of ((Lat2-lat1)squared + (Long2-Long1)squared) type thing. But if you want accuracy you should read this: http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/LatLong.html John. There isn't a ...Show All
