Hi,
You can query the current battery details by using some Platform Invoke code to access a native system API called GetSystemPowerStatusEx2.
David Kline has a good example of how to do this via C# on his blog entry - "Is my device running on battery or AC?" available at http://blogs.msdn.com/davidklinems/archive/2005/02/10/370591.aspx[^]
With respect to the memory status. This would depend upon exactly which figure / memory statistic you want to obtain. Are you wanting to know the total RAM within your device, or the amount currently available to your application for example?
Hope this helps,

Hi
I am new to mobile applications and working on my first ever sample application.
Development environement .Net 2005
Target Mobile : k-Jam with windows 5.0
My Problems are the following.
1. The application is single form, So when I resize the form in design time and install on my PPC it always cover the complete screen instead of orignal size which is given while designing.
2. There is one textbox on my form, When It get focus I need to show the screen keyboard so user can write any thing using touch screen instead of using qwerty keyboard.
Any idea's
Regards

Do you want to have a Form with the "normal" - size, or an form wich is like a popup window?
To show the softkeyboard you have to create an inputpanel on your form.
Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.InputPanel myInputPanel = new Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.InputPanel();
then on the gotFocus of the Textbox
myInputPanel.Enabled = true;
that´s it
Regards

I have a couple of blog posts which might help with these issues.

This is by design. The Windows Mobile design guidelines suggest all application windows are fullscreen. You will notice this is how all the built in applications behave. I wouldn't suggest breaking this convention.
However if you do want to give it a go, take a look at a blog posting of mine titled "Creating non full screen forms and custom MessageBoxes" http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/134[^]. But the entire technique is rather fragile and not worth the effort in my opinion...

For this you should investigate the InputPanel control within the toolbox of the forms designer. A blog post of mine called "Manage soft input panel (SIP)" available at http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/42[^] may be of help. Especially the section titled "Automatic SIP Popup".

myOpenFileDialog.Filter = "xml files (*.xml)|*.xml";
myOpenFileDialog.FilterIndex = 1;
DialogResult result = myOpenFileDialog.ShowDialog();

{
xmlPath = myOpenFileDialog.FileName;
if (activeProject != null)
activeProject.CreateAndOpenEmptyProject();
activeProject = TModelProject.getInstance();
//InitApplDate(xmlPath);
activeProject.open(xmlPath);
if (activeProject.xmlDoc == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("Error");
}
Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor;
VMain.SuspendLayout();
activeProject.Load();
activeProject.LoadAll();
vTreeView1.InitView(activeProject);
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default;
}
}

Hello,
i just found the mistake.
I suspend the mainfrom but i forgot to resume it.
If you use this.SuspendLayout(); folowwing you have to use ResumeLayout();

Sounds like you need to pick up a good book and read about this. But the short version of the answer to your question is that you can create most common / every day type .NET Applications on a mobile device as well (even database driven).

As you can read at this link on MSDN, eVB is considered obsolete technology now:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/windowsmobile/downloads/evb.aspx[^]
I recommend that use a standard Mobile .NET Application instead, but if you are still set on using eVB, you can download and use it for free at the link above.

The list of compatible development tools:
For early versions of Windows CE, there were plugins to MSVC 5.0 and 6.0. However, these reportedly screwed up your environment so you couldn't use it for desktop development any more.
In 2000 Microsoft released eMbedded Visual Tools 3.0, which includes eVC 3.0, which is basically a rebadged VC 6.0 environment that can live side-by-side. This is compatible with Windows CE 2.x and 3.0, including Pocket PC 2000 and 2002.
Windows CE (.NET) 4.x changed some debugging interfaces and so a new version of eVC was required, version 4.0. eVB was dropped. CE 4.1 requires at least SP1, CE 4.2 at least SP2. SP2 was not compatible with CE 4.1, a problem corrected in SP3. SP4 adds support for CE 5.0. In terms of Windows Mobile versions, WM 2003 for Pocket PC and Smartphone are supported but Windows Mobile 5.0 is not.
Windows Mobile 5.0 and 6 require Visual Studio 2005, at least Standard Edition. The free Express Edition is not enough. VS 2005 also supports Windows CE 5.0 platforms and Pocket PC 2003. I believe the support matrix is the same for Visual Studio 2008.
eVC 3.0 and 4.0 do not work on Windows Vista. No fix is planned. If you're running Windows Vista you'll have to run a Windows XP virtual machine if you need eVC.
See this page[^] for more, including the recommended installation order.
