Visual Basic :: VB And Windows Mobile 5.0?

Windows Mobile DirectX
Hello every one. I would like to ask you about using Direct3D in a windows mobile project. I'm using Visual Studio "Orcas" and the compact .NET 3.5. I've uploaded my project (I'm not sure if this is a violation of the rules of the forum) .

So ... the problem is that I want to load a mesh from a file or just create it using custom points, but how? the only thing I've managed to do is create ready objects such as boxes spheres and so on.

Thanks

Sorry but i posted this in the non .net place could this post be moved to .net directX section?

MD5 Hash From Windows Mobile
Hi There..

Im Trying to use Hash MD5 on a Windows Mobile 2003 SE (HP 8715 PDA) PDA.
Does someone knows how to achieve that?
in an ordinary Windows application (for XP, 2000, 2003.. etc) I can use the code below:

Code:Dim MD5Hasher As New System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider

but for PPC, that class (System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider) doesnt exists.

Does anyone knows how to have a MD5 working inside a PPC application?

sorry about my english!

thanks in advance.

Navigation Buttons Do Not Pass To Form In Windows Mobile 2003
Hi,

We have a quite complicated Evb app (30 forms and three modules!) controlling a laboratory instrument. This has worked very well using Mips based devices running CE 3.0. These are now very scarce so I have moved it all to one running an X Scale processor and Windows Mobile 2003 SE. Everything works fine with minor tweaks apart from the fact that the the keyboard events that I used to navigate controls on many forms from the machines Joystick, do not work any more (apart from on "standard multi button Message Boxes" and the enter Key which always passes to the control with the focus).

As a test, I created a simple form with four command buttons and no code at all for joystick navigation.

On a CE 3.0 device, the the Cursor Wheel and Up/Down buttons moves the focus in the tab order and rolls over at the top or bottom straight out of the box. However, on a device with Windows Mobile 2003 SE, you can hear the clicks from the knobs but the focus does not tab through the buttons at all. Only the Enter/Action Key works on the button that has the focus.

I can directly control the focus directly from the code that handles the joystick input but keeping track of which form is visible and if the user touches the screen and changes it is a nightmare compared with the original which was simple and foolproof!

Does anyone know if this is a "Feature" of the later OS with Evb and if there is a simple workaround?

Thanks for any help.

How I Can Read My Sms Mobile From The PC ?

Going Mobile
Hi Guys

Not sure if this is the right place nor indeed what exactly the question is but ....

I have a VB6 application which I've developed over the last 5 years & use every day. It consists of 4 or 5 screens & involves a shell to perl which retrieves data off the net and stores it in files for subsequent processing. The code is pretty crude.... as everytime I hit a new problem which wasn't in my VB book , i would come on to places like this to get the answers from helpful gurus & I quite often used different methods and constructs just as an exercise , when maybe there were more efficient and straightforward ways of achieving the same end.

Anyway , the application is great and gives me endless enjoyment .......but ultimately i would love to go mobile & presumably this would also involve miniaturisation . So my questions are really :

is this in any way possible ?
where do I start ?
can you just buy any pda and somehow start trying to put your application on it?
How do you even begin to miniaturise forms ?

Is the only way forward to adopt a totally new platform ...if so , can I somehow convert the current code without a rewrite ?

Are there some books or websites that can help me ?

If its impossible , fine ....I stay grounded ...but presumably there are many more years of development in front of me if there is a way forward !!?*!!

TIA

How To Connect With PC And Mobile PC?
Hello
I have a program written in VB6 on PC side, which request a connection to Mobile PC Program(Written in VB.NET, Samsung Q1). This is a program just like a chatroom.
I can make connection with PC and PC paltform. But I can't connect to Mobile PC. I checked the state of winsock in VB6, and it always shown in 6 (Connecting).
On the moblie PC side, I used netstat -a to confirm the port used by my program was on. It means that it is ready for new connection request(?)
But I always encounted the above problem. Are there any special setting on Moblie PC? I already turned off firewall, UAC. Or is there any different coding in VB?

Thanks a lot and below is the related code:
VB6 (PC Side)

Code:
Private Sub sendBal()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim strServerIP As String
strServerIP = CStr(sckPDA.LocalIP)

Dim bal As String
bal = "Testing Message:" & strServerIP

sckSend.Connect
DoEvents
If sckSend.State = sckConnected Then
sckSend.SendData bal
Else
GoTo ErrorHandler
End If

Exit Sub

ErrorHandler:
On Error Resume Next
MsgBox "Cannot connect remote host!", vbCritical
End Sub

VB.NET(Moblie PC Side)

Code:
Private Sub PDAListen()
On Error GoTo errorHandler
Dim strBalance As String = ""

'Dim ipAddress As System.Net.IPAddress = Dns.Resolve(Dns.GetHostName).AddressList(0)
sckListener = New System.Net.Sockets.TcpListener(IPAddress.Parse(serverIP), 1008)
sckListener.Start()

Dim s As Socket = sckListener.AcceptSocket()

Dim recBuffer(20000) As Byte
Dim i As Integer
i = s.Receive(recBuffer)

If i > 0 Then
'remoteIP = IPAddress.Parse(CType(s.RemoteEndPoint, IPEndPoint).Address.ToString())
strBalance = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(recBuffer, 0, i)

SyncLock thListen
Me.BeginInvoke(New DelBalance(AddressOf updateUI), New Object() {strBalance})
End SyncLock
End If

Connecting More Than One Mobile
Hi everybody,

Platform information :

Technology : GSM
OS : Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Mobile Model : Motorola L2
Driver Software : Widcomm
Bluetooth Dongle: X-Micro Bluetooth 2.0 Plus

I am not able to connect more than one motorola mobile at a time.
Whenever I connect the mobile it automatically connects via Dial-up Networking and takes one COM Port.(It didn't show serial port option). If I connect another motorola mobile, It takes the same COM port and connects via DUN connection. Now I need n number of different ports for n number of mobiles. So Now I can connect only one motorola mobile at a time. I tried in Hyperterminal (by opening 2 or more instances of hyperterminal and giving the same COM port, it shows "Another program is using the selected Telephony device"). Any solution? please help me.

MsComm For SMS From PC 2 Mobile Is Driving Me Mad.
There are a lot of messages about this subject. And yes, I did use the search-option and yes, I have tried to find the solution for a few days in a row now.

Even though I cannot figure out why this thing is not working.

First of all I take care of the modem settings:

MSComm1.CommPort = 1
MSComm1.Handshaking = comRTS
MSComm1.InputLen = 0
MSComm1.Settings = "9600,N,8,1" (And I have also tried lower speed)
MSComm1.PortOpen = True

After that I take care of the connection:

MSComm1.Output = "AT DT 0653141414" & vbCrLf (This is my CSCA)

As soon as I am connected I receive the message "CONNECT 9600". Seems OK to me.

And then I guess I should be ready to send the SMS:

MSComm1.Output = "AT+CMGF=1" & Chr(13)
MSComm1.Output = "AT+CMGS=" & Chr(34) & "+31612345678" & Chr(34) & Chr(13)
MSComm1.Output = "test OK " & Chr(26)
MSComm1.PortOpen = False

However, after getting connected nothing happens. At the most I can get a CommEvent "comEvCD".

I have to make that connection with my CSCA before sending the SMS, right? Nobody told me, but it seems normal to me....

Is here anybody who worked this out? I've searched many forums on the web but I didn't find a working sample. Nothing is wrong with the modem, nothing is wrong with the numbers. I can do this job with third party software and the same settings.

Does anybody have a working sample project? I've seen many smart answers (and even more questions), but nobody told how to do this exactly.

Mobile Phone Interaction With VB
I was wondering how you would go about setting up VB to respond when a connected mobile phone rings, and then based on digits entered perform certain routines.

For example, the phone rings, then if the person on the other end presses digit 1 then # it calls a function:

DigitPressed( 1 )

or if the person pressed digits: 135# the function would be called:

DigitPressed( 135 )

hope this makes sense,

I am currently in the "R" phase of R&D. I am creating a VB application that will utilize a desktop database on the users laptops. At radom intervals the users will dial in to a central server and sync up their data with the current data on the server. This will go both ways, they will upload their latest while retrieving new data on the server. If anyone knows of a case study that I can look at please let me know. Also, if anyone has some interesting thoughts or ideas, please share them. Thanks.
