The processor used for the emulator is still the processor from your computer! So, it's normal you cannot run a compiled application for pocket PC on your computer.
The use of the emulator is to test your source code: you have to compile it in a certain way so it can be understood by your computer.

Hope this helps

Thanks, that does answer my question. It's a pity a person can't run compiled apps! Thanks again Big Grin | :-D

I see that you've got a jump on this PPC programming once the Axim arrived. Big Grin | :-D

I was exactly like that.. I think within 30mins of the box being opened and ActiveSync being installed, i had the eVT3 exe being downloaded.

Are you writing your code for use in .NET or just plain ole WinCE? My Toshiba doesn't come with .NET CF pre-installed and I'm scared to whether I should install it or not; I don't want to mess with 'my preciousssss' Big Grin | :-D

Happy coding!

The emulator can only run x86 (or x86em) compiled WinCE code.

Hi Atlantys - did I ever reply to this? Blush | :O

If I didn't, I'm sorry - didn't notice that there was a reply here Blush | :O

Anyway, the answer is yes, I'll be using plain WinCE. I'll wait till .NET CF comes standard with the OS first. I'm the same, I also don't want to mess my PPC up Big Grin | :-D

I'm really enjoying programming with eVC++ - I think it's a geekish novelty value, seeing my creations run on that small mobile device Smile | :)

retaining focus

using .net compact framework
***************************************************************

My form must load and the first field must be focused upon. I can do this just fine.

However, I'm working on a project where the user has a bar-code reader sleeve on his iPaq. This simply acts like a SIP and saves him time entering data, it reads it in for him.

This scanner software shows a quick popup message upon the first scan, all subsequent scans are normal with no popups.

When this popup occurs it takes the focus off of my form and the form field I want focused.

How do I force the form to stay on top regardless of any other programs that decide to run/popup?

I've tried the LostFocus event, can't seem to get it to do anything (calling this.Focus() or formField.Focus())

Thanks!

Seeking Databases

I have a database made up of records that contain two properties, an unsigned int and a string. I want to search the database by the int, without knowing the word. Therefore, I cannot seek by CEOID.
However, I am having problems seeking my database by a PROPID. If I specify in CESeekDatabase that I am seeking for the first equal value, then specify that I am searching by the sorted property CEVT_UI2, the unsigned int value, then there is no parameter left to specify the value I am searching for. How should I search this database for just one property of the records?
I'm developing for Windows CE 3.0, using Embedded Visual C++. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Exit and save

Cedric Moonen14-Jul-03 20:23

Hi all!
Let me explain my problem: I need my application to be closed 'completely'. I achieve this by removing the 'smart minimize' button and replace it by the OK button (I tried to remove all two but it doesn't work).
So, that works fine but now I want to know when the user clicked on this button (so I can ask him if he wants to leave without saving or stay in the program). How can I do this?

Another solution would be also to remove completely the 'smart minimize' and the Ok button (I've another exit button on my toolbar).

Any idea?
Thanks

Have you tried the following code to remove both buttons (the OK and the minimize button)?

SHDoneButton(m_hWnd, SHDB_HIDE); 
ModifyStyle(0, WS_NONAVDONEBUTTON, SWP_NOSIZE);

I tried but WS_NONAVDONEBUTTON is undeclared !! Confused | :confused:

I have this error at compilation:
C:\MEC\Sources Pocket\CVVisual\MainFrm.cpp(107) : error C2065: 'WS_NONAVDONEBUTTON' : undeclared identifier

In wich header file is it declared ?
Thanks for your response Wink | ;)

WS_NONAVDONEBUTTON is defined as:
#define WS_NONAVDONEBUTTON WS_MINIMIZEBOX

while WS_MINIMIZEBOX is defined as:
#define WS_MINIMIZEBOX 0x00010000L
