Greetings:
I am developing a fairly simple application on a Fujitsu Siemens Loox 720 Pocket PC running Windows Mobile 2003. I am using Visual Studio 2003 with a project configured for Smart Devices using C#.NET.
OK, I have noticed a strange problem and I find it is repeatedable with the simplest of programs and also with applications that come with the operating system like "File Explorer".
All you have to do is run these programs ONCE and then close them again immediately. Now, my Loox 720 comes with a utility program called "Running Programs". I start this program and it lists the applications that are, apparently, running. What I am finding is that my program remains on this list even after I have closed it. My impulse would be to check for un-released resources allocated from my application, but I must emphasis, I have reproduced this problem with a simple program that does nothing else but put a Windows Form on the display and lets you close it. It also happens with File Explorer. Try it: Start File Explorer, close it, then check "Running Programs" - there it is!
I wouldn't really care about this but I find that when I need to deploy my application, if I run the application and then try to make a change and then deploy it again, it won't let me! I have tried to delete the program EXE file from the Program Files directory but the PDA won't let me saying that the program is in use! I have to start the "Running Programs" utility and FORCE it to close before the PDA will allow me to delete or update the EXE! That is NOT going to make development easy.
Can anybody shed some light on this issue? Why do certain programs that run on the PDA APPEAR to close but remain running to some extent? How can I write MY simple application so that when it is closed, it actually CLOSES?
Thank you in advance for your response.
Mark

The little 'X' in the topright corner does not close the program, it only minimizes it.
Dialog-based programs generally have a small 'ok' button up there, which maps to OnOK -> AppExit.
You should be able to add the 'ok' button to your SDI based app with
SHDoneButton(GetSafeHwnd(), SHDB_SHOW);
when creating the CMainFrame class (or handle it via menus, etc).

Hi Jonas:
Thanks for your response.
Its funny but barely minutes ago, I read a technical article on the MSDN web site entitled:
"Differences in Microsoft .NET Compact Framework Development between the Pocket PC and Windows CE .NET"
In this article, I found that your solution will work, OR, you can go to the property sheet for the main form and change "Minimize" from True to False. This will REPLACE the 'X' with an 'Ok', which closes the application. This will suit my purposes as I do not need to be able to minimize my application.
Thanks again,
Mark

Hi all! I have a problem on WM 5.0. Anyone can help me.
I have a project on Pocket PC 2003 and I use CCeSocket class to connect to the NET. Now, I want to convert this project to Window Mobile 5.0. I use Visual Studio 2005 IDE to convert it but VS 2005 not supports CCeSocket class.
On the msdn documents, they say that CCeSocket encapsulates CAsyncSocket. I've replated CCeSocket by CAsyncSocket but the application still can not connect to the Net. I debug step by step and when I use connect function of CAsyncSocket, it is not successful. I get the error with the function GetLastError() and the return is WSAEWOULDBLOCK error "The socket is marked as nonblocking and the connection cannot be completed immediately.".
Please tell me solve this problem.
Thank you very much.

Hi. I'm using a toolbar created with winForms on my Pocket PC 2002 app. The icons I assign to the toolbar buttons are 16x16 .png icons. I've 2 related problems: I'm actually seeing the "transparent" part of the icon (the toolbar background is gray, but I see the icon surrounded by a white square) and, in consequence, when I disable a toolbar button I don't see the shadow of the icon shape: I see the shadow of the square, so all the icons seem the same disabled. If I edit the icon and paint the "transparent" part with the toolbar background color I solve the first part of the problem, but when the icon is disabled I will still see an square.
I would really appreciate if anybody could tell me how to solve this problem or give me any clue.
Thanks,
Federico

Is there a way to access the parameters of a CABWIZ INF file (Information
File) from the custom setup.dll specified in the CESetupDLL string in the
[DefaultInstall] section?
For example, if this section is in the INF file:
[Strings]
ShowMessages="Yep"
Can I access the ShowMessages string from inside my setup.dll written in eVC?
Thanks,
Steve

I suggest you storing the parameters in the registry and then read them from setup.dll

Hi All,
Does someone know how to set by program the clock of the Pocket PC from my Desktop PC?
I searched in the windows RAPI fonctions that can manage a lot of mobile device settings and file actions, but I didn't find anything that can manage the clock (Time & Date) settings.
I know I can use activesync connexion settings, but I need to do that within my application, to be sure that, no matter the activesync configuration, date & time will be the same on both devices.
Does someone know some API that provide such function?

Hi,
I am currently designing an application for a customer, whereby the attendant on a site can use a handheld device to book a customer in, and print off a receipt on a mobile printer, rather than the customer entering into the site office.
We are using Wireless to communicate with the base station, and I am wondering if anybody has any recommendations on what I should use to communicate with the printer. We have a spare PCMCIA slot in the device, and I am wondering on bluetooth or wireless. If the unit goes out of range, we would still want it to perform the basic functions, and synchronise when back in range.
Any ideas / input?
Many thanks

Hi, does any one have used the “AVI” control in smart phone environment?
When I want to create a animate window use the macro which define in the commctrl.h, it always failed, and return me a error: can’t find the class info!
It seems that the animate window class has not been registered! But all other common control window classes have been registered! I can create a rebar window, a tool tip window….
some supplement:
At first, I use :
Animate_Create(this->m_hWnd,IDC_ANIMATE,WS_BORDER,AfxGetApp()->m_hInstance)
and then get one error: 1407 which means can not find window class.
So I used followind statement:
GetClassInfo(NULL,ANIMATE_CLASS,&animate_class);
Also this function return one error: 1411 which means that the ANIMATE_CLASS is not registered yet!!
But if I use statement: GetClassInfo(NULL,REBARCLASSNAME ,&animate_class) it run successfully!
The rebarclass and the animate_class are define in the commctrl.h. I just can not understand why I can't get the animate_class???
 Thanks a lot, Please, any comment is appreciated!

I am using :
HWND AnimationCtrl=CreateWindowEx(0, //Style
ANIMATE_CLASS, //Class Name
NULL, //Window name
WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_BORDER| //Window Style
ACS_TRANSPARENT|ACS_CENTER,
0, //Left
0, //Top
300, //Right
60, //Bottom
hWnd, //Handle of parent
NULL, //Menu
avi, //hInstance
NULL);
to create the animation control but animation_open is failing.
