• Karthick Sukumaran VE Map Control in Thick Mobile Client Application

  Hi, I have used VE Map Control in Windows Application on desktops and they work fine. My understanding of how it works is as follows VE Map Control is web control which uses javascript to make Web Service Calls and gets the data. For it work on a Windows Application we use Web Browser Control. As we have seen the maps come up fine on Pocket IE, we are looking at the possibility of replicating this scenario on the Mobiles The possibility we are looking at is [Thick Mobile Application + Web Browser Control + VE Map Control + Internet Connection ] on a Pocket PC emulator Do we have support of > Web Browser in Windows Mobile (We think it is there) > Javascript in Pocket IE ( We thi ...Show All

• Dordorgum Global Key event handler

  Hi all, I'm in the process of writing my first application for the compact framework. I need to write an event handler that handles all keyup events. Now obviously I could simply override the OnKeyUp event of the form, which is something I have tried with limited success. Whenever another control on the form has the focus the keyup event handler will obviously not fire. I would have thought that this would be a common problem, I did a few searches on msdn but it didn't come up with anything that looked quite like what I was looking for. Is there a solution to this Thanks Michael, Unfortunately I have to use the 1.0 framework, I found Form.KeyPreview aswell - shame :) ...Show All

• ryan101 Get Coordinates onclick

  I'm fairly new to javascript, and, as such, I have what I feel like should be a simple question. I want to get the coordinates (either pixel x, y or latitude, longitude will do) of where the user clicks on the map. I want to place push pins where they click, and, ultimately, I want to allow a connect the dots type drawing where the user simply clicks and a line is connected from where he previously clicked. I was hoping this could be raised as an event, but it doesn't look like it. Thanks in advance. Hi, I thought you might find this useful to get your coodinates. I used the following function triggered by the 'onmousemove' event in my <div> element to output the coordinates in the status bar. If you change the 'onmouse ...Show All

• hommer DeleteSubKeyTree throws UnauthorizedAccessException

  Hi I'm currently trying to develop a small game for Windows Mobile 5 using the .NET Compact Framework 2.0. Everything works fine except calling the DeleteSubKeyTree method. I can call this fine once, but when I call it a second time, it keeps throwing UnauthorisedAccessException s. I've never had this problem with Windows, does anyone know why this is happening Below is some reproduction code for this issue. Paste it in the event handler for a button or something and call it twice. The first time should succeed, the second and subsequent times should raise exceptions.

• Automate Custom Layer Past Zoom Level 17?

    Hello people,    I have set up a custom Tile Server to serve up some Hight Detail tiles as a custom layer: I have set the VETileSourceSpecification.MaxZoom property to 18, as my TileServer can produce tiles at any magnification.  It all works fine at normal zoom levels, but once I soom past Zoom Level 17, where VE Tiles stop - then there appears to be just vast amounts of grey/gray Anyone have any ideas on how to allow VE to render my custom layer at a higher zoom level   I don't care if the normal tiles don't display.  All I need is for my custom layer to render. e.g. //Add layer tileSourceSpec = new VETileSourceSpecification(); tileSourceSpec.ID = "HighDetailLayer" ; tileSourceSp ...Show All

• Romantic_touch Get network connection notification.

  If there such a thing as the possibility of getting a notification to your application that the PocketPC now has a network connection This is for a Today Plugin application and I don't want to sit there with the code trying to connect every so often as that seems like a waist of resources/processor. There has to be a better way. Thanks NotifyAddrChange can be used to detect changes in IP addresses assigned to a device - this would normally occur when device gets connected. On WM5 you can use Service and Notification Broker (snapi.h) to request notifications on change of such values as ConnectionsCount or ConnectionsNetworkCount Awesome thanks Alex ! :) ...Show All

• Adminanup Overriding wceload's install directory in WM5

  In previous versions of Windows Mobile (starting with 2002, anyway), there was a way to programmatically override the install directory for a CAB with wceload.exe by using the /noaskdest command line switch and populating the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Apps\Microsoft Application Installer\Install With WM5, though, that functionality is half-broken. It's not completely ignoring that key, because the CAB file specified there is still installed, but it's ignoring the install directory that's specified there. What I'm wondering is, when will this bug be fixed, or is there now an alternate way to do it My reasons for wanting to do this instead of using wceload's install destination GUI are two-fold: - Uniform destination selection G ...Show All

• Beny at work dummy data.......

  Hi.... When you first connect to the sandbox is there any dummy accounts or data in there so you can start messing around straight away Have no come across it in the documentation yet.... Cheers, Justin Thanks for suggesting that, we're thinking about sandbox v.next these days and we'll take that into account. Hi Shai, Thanks for your reply. I would think having some data in the sandbox is a very good idea (well for my purposes anyway! ;) All I want to do is fetch keyword reports on a daily basis, but as there is nothing in the sandbox I have to spending time creating and adding campaigns etc....just so i can run a dummy report It would make far more s ...Show All
