• Philipp Lamp Device softreset/shutdown question

  Hi, I have a question about device reset/shutdown, I have a block of code that running in an "infiinite" loop (thread) and right below it I have block of code that will save some data that used in the thread. I do not want the data being write/save to the disk everytime it being used in the thread, so I'm wondering will Windows (smartphone) notify all the running processes that the device is going to reset/shutdown Thanks in advance. I'm in a similar situation, where I want to persist some data before the smartphone shuts down or resets (my application permanently runs in the background).  I take it that this is similarly impossible to do I don't really like the thought of always writi ...Show All

• Rei Miyasaka Troubles automatically connecting to the net...

  My internet app works fine when my Treo is connected to the dev system. When I pull it off, it doesn't see the connection. In order to prime-to-pump I need to launch IE. When doing so I get a balloon saying "Connecting to: Broadband access, Using : Cellular line". After that my app has no problem making the connection. So it would appear that there is an extra-special call I need to make to ensure connectivity. Anyone know what that might be Please check the anouncement link for more appropriate news group for this topic, Thanks Srikanth you need to open the connection line.

• Mongsreturn Live Messenger Not Responding

  I have Windows Live Messenger (the latest one, but not the beta) and I had MSN plus addition installed. It was working fine for about 4 months and then the day before yesterday everytime I tried to log in, right after it brought up my contacts screen it would stop responding. I had to 'end task' to get it to shut down. I've tried deinstalling and reinstalling it at least three times, without the MSN plus addition, but it still won't work. The curious thing is that this only pertains to the login accounts that I make. I've made three different ones and none of them work, but my roommate can log in on my computer fine. However, when *I* try to log in on *her* computer I get the same error and I have to end task. Even when I create new accoun ...Show All

• GBGY Is there a way to import MSN messenger/Yahoo messenger/AOL messenger into a universal address book.

  Is there a way to import MSN messenger/Yahoo messenger/AOL messenger into a universal address book. I was asked by my management to find out how some of the other sites have implemented this functionality. Behind the Windows Live services (Messenger, Mail, Spaces, etc.) there is a shared contact list (aka a universal address list). That address list can be used programmatically by other applications through the Windows Live contacts gadget . This may be what you're looking for.

• Pocketmnky Redeploys DLLs Every Time

  I'm using VSTS to develop an application for Windows Mobile 5 devices. All my DLLs are redeployed every time I hit F5, even if no changes. Is this a known problem Are there any workarounds When you say that you are developing an application for WM5 devices using VSTS, I am assuming that you are talking about writing Unit Tests also and the behaviour you mention is to do with running the Unit Tests If that is the case then, this behaviour is known. In VSTS it is possible to run old tests. In the test results window, the dropdown will show previous test runs. Selecting any one of them will load the previous runs. One can then re-run that run. This behaviour enables the scenario where you can compare the r ...Show All

• Prateek_cds File Version Info On Windows Mobile 5.0 for PocketPC...

  Hello all, I am currently working on a C++ project for a PocketPC with Windows Mobile 5.0 in Visual Studio 2005. I am currently looking for a way to get file version information, i.e. file version, product version, file modified date, file creation date, etc. The only way I could find was using the functions GetFileVersionInfoSize, GetFileVersionInfo, and then VerQueryValue, but when I ran it, it gave me an error saying: "The specified resource name cannot be found in the image file." I noticed in the documentation that these functions do not work for 16-bit file images, which may be why I am getting the error. Is there another way to get this information (i.e. one that works on 16-bit file systems) If not, what infomation ...Show All

  Hi all, I need to implement in my application something that can capture the Dialogs and PropertySheets openning and closing. Every time the user opens or closes a Dialog I need to do something, like some kind of log. I though this can be done intercepting the events INITDIALOG and DESTROYWINDOW, but I don't know exactly what to do.

Does anyone have already need to "log" user actions I need only to know when a dialog opens and closes without ...Show All
