I don't know what you mean by: "Uhhhh.... Windows?" If it was because all input APIs support mice and keyboards or what.

I'm trying to write a little library to handle input, I have already implented the basefiles which are API independent. Currently, I have added DirectInput support in the library, but I also wan't to add another implentation to show how easy it is.

So actually, I just need to know an input API, like DirectInput. I don't target any specific hardware.

I have heard about something called OpenIL some time ago in C++, but searching for it it seams to be an "Open Image Library" instead of "Open Input Library".

No, I only thought SDL was for graphics, sound and networking. I'll look at it in a couple of hours(need to do some homework).

Hi I have this WORD document with some text, formatting and images. Now, I want to save the content of that document into an xml. If it were a simple text document then I know how to approach it. Since, image is also involved in it, I am not sure how to go about.

How can I read the entire content of WORD document (including text, formatting and image) and savee into an xml file? Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

In not an expert in Word but... The newest version of Word actually has an option to save in XML format. Images are probably encoded base64. Google for Word 2003 XML.

Word 2003 has the option to save as wordprocessingML, and they have the schema published in the msdn office section, along with some tools to generate xsl files to use templates. Googling on wordprocessingML returns a number of results as well. Images are embedded as base64 chunks or SVG format.

C# and smartphones - questions???

Smartphones - kind of like a PPC but smaller andmore of a phone most are currently running windows mobile 2003 (soon they'll be running "magneto" Oooh!)

Okay here are a few simple questions... Confused | :confused:

1)Can i use C# to program for a smartphone?
If no you may as well just stop here (i dont see any reason why it would be 'no' though)

2)Is it exactly the same as programming for a PC? Can i use the same code i would for a windows form for example? (set to the right size of course - 176*200).

3) What can i use to compile the code, and is it free?
(If it isnt free what is?)

Thanks for any help at all WTF | :WTF:

1) Yes. From Visual Studio, File->New->Project->Smart Device Projects->Smartphone Application.

2) No. Instead of using the .NET framework, you must use the .NET Compact framework. It's a slimmed down version of what you normally code with. Your Windows Forms code won't work; you have to use the Compact Framework's version of Windows Forms.

3) I'd recommend MS Visual Studio, which isn't free, SharpDevelop (free & open source), or any of Borland's .NET offerings.

Dear everyone,

I am creating IE Toolbar and I want to make it show up as default like Yahoo toolbar. I am encounting problem for this setting. Now I have created the toolbar, but after installation the user will have to config it as "display" manually by clicking mouse and selecting it.

To create IE toolbar, see Pavel Zolnikov 's article http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetbandobjects.asp

and vadaa's article
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/IE_Advanced_Toolbar.asp

They are great codes.

U mean implementing the "netsend" command through C#?

Or u just wanna use netsend? If this is the case, fire up a command window n type:

NET SEND

and it will show you the basic syntax for the command (on Win XP). I am not sure, but I think older WIndows version (e.g. Windows'98) don't support netsend through the command window, they have a GUI version instead.

Thanks..

Fairly simple. You need to look into RemoteEndPoint[^]

Ok but, remoteEndPoint gives me where to connect,

The Problem is;

There is a Server which is justs listens a port, and a unknown client connects to port. Server wants to detect its IP, How this Could be possible?

Thank you very much for your interest!!

Your server would surely have some sort of an Accept() method that returns a Socket? You just use that Socket's RemoteEndPoint property
