• MickJ27 Cannot Use Items Created in a Form Class Using an instance of another class

  Hello, I have created a Windows Form class in which i have defined a Media Player ActiveX control that i found on the internet and a webBrowser component. I have created a seperate class (called Display) which uses these two components of the Form class. The program creates an instance of the Display class and uses the two components to display a picture (webBrowser) or play a wmv file (Media Player ActiveX Control). In the Form class i have created delegates for the two functions and i'm using Control.Invoke (in the Display class) in order to display the picture or play the wmv file. I used the command : class Display : Form2 so that the Display class can inherit all the components of the Form class. The comp ...Show All

• ArcPadNewbie Windows Mobile 5.0 appln can run on deevice with wm 2003 Os?

  Hi, Is it possible to build the appln on WM 5.0 for pocket pc and then making it on the devices having Windows Mobile 2003 Help needed. as stated, it depends what you are wanting to access, it actually does depend on the .NET CF, since you will be using its features, unless you are doing P/Invoke. if features are unique to WM5.0 then of course it will not work on WM2003 since it is "unique" to WM5 YES as long as you aren't using any specific WM5.0 calls (I don't know what they are) apps created in .NET CF 1.0 will be able to run on WM2005, since it has by default .NET CF 1.0 .NET CF 2.0 will install on PPC if they are running WM2003, ...Show All

• bryanedds Linking with C++ static library in native C++ smart device projet

  I used to have a PocketPC client application communicating with a desktop C++ server. Now, I'm porting the server to PocketPC so the whole thing can work on the PDA without an internet connection. I'm having problems linking with the libraries' .lib files I'm using. For instance, I'm using sockets (Winsock2.h -- WS2_32.Lib). I include the .h, code compiles but doesn't link; then I add the .lib in the additionnal depencies, but still, it doesn't link (error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ioctlsocket referenced in function "public: void __cdecl OBServer::InitializeServer(int,int)"...) First of all, is a desktop .lib supposed to work right away in a smart device projet Or maybe it need to be recompiled or something like that If ...Show All

• Mark B . How to rename a project folder in Mobile 5.0 device project

  I have started a Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC device Appliction project. At the end, I have been requested to rename the folder....grrrr. Any help I'm not quite sure I follow... It's a folder on your file system, so rename it as any other folder. Or, are you're asking about folder on device You can change it in the "Output File Folder" property. Normally you should not have a folder names in project files (except may be for solution file) so it should work even if you move the project to another PC into arbitrary folder. If you do have folder name (e.g. added files with absolute paths), simple search/replace inside project files should fix it. Alternatively create ...Show All

• skt1974 Bluetooth serial Port (SPP) WinIOException during Reopen Port

  Hello! My actual project includes a bt-modul by kc-wirefree ( www.kcwirefree.com ) and pocketpc's by various manufacurers and WM2005 and net.cf 2.0 SP1. Pocket-PC's with microsoft's Bluetooth-stacks are working well, pocket-pc's with the broadcom-stack (I have also a acer n300) have the following problem: I am using spp to send/receive data from external module and if the carrier is lost or the external component is not answering (for instance power off/power on) the programm will close the connection, reopen it and test the communication again. I don’t like to use manufacturer-specific api's to guarantee the platform-undepending functionality. (And i think it is a problem to identify the manufacturer specific stacks) The reo ...Show All

• NelG1 add layer but keep current view?

  I am trying to add layers that I only want to appear when the user is at a certain zoom level. My first hurdle seems to be that when the layer loads the map jumps to zoom level 1 with the whole earth displayed each time. I would prefer that the center, zoom, etc. remain the same as before the layer is added. Is there a way to do this Thanks, harold As for your first hurdle, I would suggest this: You can't disable the auto-map recentering that happens after adding a layer. Do, after calling the AddLayer() method, call SetCenterAndZoom(). If you want to always go back to the same location and zoom level that the user was at before loading the layer, you could save that info in variables and ...Show All

• lasa Vista, VS2005 SP1, Mobile Device Center and disconnects

  Situation: I had to install Vista Ultimate x64 I installed Visual Studio 2005, SP1. Both in Italian. I could not install the "Service Pack 1 Update for Windows Vista " because it is available only for English. To work with my PDA, I installed "Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center Beta 3 for Windows Vista (AMD64)". I'm able to sync my PDA with my PC. The problem: When I run my VS2005 VB application, it is correctly distributed on my PDA.

• BMalone MSN Search API implemented in ASP only

• Charles Allen Adding Layers to the Map

  Hi, I am in a process of developing a website using virtual earth that displays data from my database on Virtual earth Map. From the VE SDK i learnt that this can be achieved by Layers. But didnt not really understand how to implement it. Could some one help me in doing the same or provide a sample code that will help me. Email: madhu.gandhi@patni.com . Thanks and regards, Madhu. Test that your xml file is accessable through a browser. I didn't think you had to with geoRSS, but it may have to be in a website, so that is a virtual directory in IIS for example. Eventualy you would have to have your xml file hosted somewhere anyway. John. Ah my recommended solution to the "lots of points" prob ...Show All
