    - Compatibility between WinCE 4.2 and 5.0 I have tried to install WinCE 5.0 eval on my computer with 4.2 and 5.0 beta installed. I have uninstalled the 5.0 beta and didn't manage to install the 5.0 eval. I get these errors : "No debugger : The selected config does not have an installed debugger. You cannot debug this config." and "No primary processors are available. The build system will be disbaled. It is likely that a build system add-on processor (.pkg), installed by setup, failed to load." I have uninstalled the 4.2 but I still get the same result. How can I erase totaly WinCE 4.2 and WinCE 5.0 from my PC without formating ?? I cannot uninstalll WinCE 5.0, the uninstaller stall. Thanks in advance, Regards. Sadi Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58733

    - USB HID Mouse Driver problem Hello. I'm trying to use "USB HID Mouse Only" OS feature in my embedded platform (PXA270 / WinCE 5.0). Everything works nice except one thing: USB HID mouse driver uses incorrect screen width: mouse pointer crosses the screen twice while moving horizontal. However there are no problems with vertical mouse movement!? Actually, the problem appears when mouse HID calls "mouse_event" API. It calls "mouse_event" with relative movement coordinates, and there are no problems with this. My screen resolution is 640x480, it seems that "mouse_event" uses 800x480 or something > 640 for horizontal screen resolution. Any ideas? Thanks, Oleg Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58725

    - Link error to Mike Hall's driver sample. I am trying the driver example after I read Mike Hall's aticle <<SPOT the Geek and Windows CE Drivers>> in MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnembedded/html/embedded03042003.asp The Driver project is compiled smoothly. Then I create a project for the application--MyApp. It was created from a "Hello world" Project wizard. I replaced the .cpp file with the file MyApp.cpp which Mike have given. Next, I created a menu for this program. But when I build it, it failed. the build output is: --------------------------------------------------------------- MyApp.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol CommandBar_InsertMenubar referenced in function "long __cdecl WndProc(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)" (?WndProc@@YAJPAUHWND__@@IIJ@Z) MyApp.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol CommandBar_Create referenced in function "long __cdecl WndProc(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)" (?WndProc@@YAJPAUHWND__@@IIJ@Z) XIZANGRel/MyApp.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals Error PB2505: Error executing link.exe. --------------------------------------------------------------- By lookup MSDN, I found that the prototype of these two functions CommandBar_InsertMenubar() and CommandBar_Create() are defined in <commctrl.h>, but this header file have already been included. So why cannot this project be built successully? Should I add some features into my OS-image project? Thank you! Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58724

    - WaveAPI & Device removal Hello All, I'm developing a waveform audio driver for PocketPc / WinCE for a removable audio device (compactflash) and have some trouble with WaveAPI when my driver is unloaded by the system. When I add my hardware to the system: everything goes as expected. The PnP identifier is determined, devicemanager loads my driver, and i receive calls from WaveAPI: WAV_Open WAV_IOControl - WIDM_GETNUMDEVS WAV_IOControl - WIDM_GETDEVCAPS WAV_IOControl - WODM_GETNUMDEVS WAV_IOControl - WODM_GETDEVCAPS WAV_IOControl - WODM_GETEXTDEVCAPS WAV_IOControl - WODM_OPEN By now there are two WAV devices in the system (WAV1: default internal device WAV2: newly added compactflash device). From an application i can use both succesfully. The trouble starts when I remove the device from the system. After the CE_CARD_REMOVAL event, the devicemanager calls WAV_DeInit and my DLL is detached, without WaveAPI ever calling WAV_Close. This is the point where it goes wrong. The remaining audio device in the system (WAV1:) stops working. WaveAPI does not seem to respond anymore. The stupid thing is when I remove the WAV1: from the system(just for testing), with a call to DeactivateDevice() in an application, the same thing happens. This test exclude my driver as being part of the problem. Does anybody know what can cause this strange behaviour? Thanks in anticipation, Best Regards, Antoin Janssen Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58717

    - PCMCIA I82365 Memory Leak problem??? Hi, I have some problems with the I82365 component under Windows CE 5.0. My design is based on a embedded X86 Board with VIA Chipset and the RICOH PCMCIA controller. So the bootloader set the ricoh controller in the I82365 compatible state and I included the following components in a standard X86 image: PCI Bus, I82365 PCMICA PC Card Host, NE2000 compatible (PCMCIA Card) When I build the image everything goes ok and I can start the image on the PC. So Windows CE detects the PCMCIA Card and the card get a IP throw DHCP. The problem is, that when I take a look under SYSTEM / MEMORY that the Use of PROGRAM MEMORY increases every few seconds around 4-8 KByte. Windows doesenÂ´t give the memory back free. So when I do nothing on the PC the memory will be full after 4-5 hours. Then I get a message that I have to increase the program memory manually. I get this feature ONLY, when I include the PCMCIA support. All used components are standard Windows CE 5.0 components, no Third Party components. Has anyone an idea, of resolving this problem??? ThankÂ´s in advance for answering my question. Grettings, Alex Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58716

    - Skin does not show up in the emulator? Hello, I´m using Platformbuilder 4.2 and I haved sucessfully compiled the OS, when I initialize it in Platformbuilder the skin appear fine then I apply the skinfolder in the SDK settings and build the SDK. I load the sdk in embedded visual c, and the skin does not appear. What can I do??? This is really strange to me, I cannot understand why, I´m going crazy, as for every rebuild of the OS it takes like 1 hour..... If I go to the Emulator Configurations Settings ( in Embedded visual c) the skin is specified there, so what the heck???? Can there be any magical configuration in the platform builder that I have to use? Please help, Dani Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58712

    - sboot on pxa255 problem I am trying to port sboot from CEPC to pxa255 BSP. i see a dialog between my sboot an PB(4.2) but it stopes. i performed monitoing on my serial port ( we have only one in our platform so i disabled all debugs messages!) i see the PB is "playng" with RTS. why? if i do not have the RTSin my platform is it how it will affect my program? i configured PB for no parity 8 bit 1 stop and no flow, so why pb still uses RTS: IOCTL_SERIAL_CLR_RTS IOCTL_SERIAL_SET_RTS my boot request is: 6B 49 54 4C BB 00 24 00 31 64 46 57 34 30 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 the response to my boot request by PB is: 6B 49 54 4C AA 20 08 00 1B 41 45 44 42 47 FF 00 00 0A shouldn't it be DD instead of AA? i also see that the dialog is not ordered means pb is not waiting to sboot to finish before it sends data, is it because of the RTS? is it OK? after that i see nothing and the download hangs. the main question is why pb uses RTS and CTS if a config it to no hardwae flow control? i will appreciate any help on that 10x Rona Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2?

    - Is that possible to log the function calling history? When my OS hangs, the callstack window out put this text: (call stack unavailable while child is running) So I know nothing about the context before the program thread went wrong. My question, is it possible to log the function-calling sequence? Since it is OK to show current callstack, I think maybe it is feasible to log the calling sequence, so I can see what happened before the error occured. Thanks a lot! Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58706

    - Is that possible to set breakpoint for changing-register? Is that possible to set breakpoint for changing-register? When I debug the loading process of my OS image, I found that when it hanged, the editor window shows that the address is 00000000, where the asm code is ??? (unknown or inaccessible ). So I suspect that something was wrong to change the PC (Program Count register) value to zero! So I want to see WHO does it. Is it possible to set a breakpoint to monitor the PC value, if it change to zero, then break. (The data breakpoint seem for expression in c-level). Or is there any useful method to solve this problem? Thanks a lot! Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58704

    - Adding an Active X control to an OS Image Hi, I am very new to the Windows CE 5.0 Platform Builder having just downloaded the 120 day trial today. I am trying to create an OS image of CE 5 that is bascially just the web browser but I need to add 1 active X control to the OS. The ActiveX control is one that I wrote in Delphi 6. Can this be added to Windows CE? Or do I have to rewrite the control in another language? I have Delphi.NET but have not really looked at it.. Thanks Rich Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58700

    - Falcon MIPS vr4121 platform.... I am trying to bring a Falcon (MIPS 4121) BSP from 4.1 to 5.0. Since the falcon is not officially supported anymore and I am normally not doing any kernel work, I was wondering if somebody has done that before or can help me a little with some fundamentals:-): I read through the CE5 docu and it says "All MIPS platforms have been migrated into one". (no more NKMIPSIIb.lib for example). Well - does that mean the I can use the mips NK.lib for my BSP? Next there are tons of cool nice little libraries under "\platform\common\lib\mipsii\" But which ones to use for the 4121? For example: One of the migration steps I have to do is to create the OEMCacheRancheFlush function. THe docu says I can simply use one form the common\libs directory ....but which one to use? There are oal_cache.lib oal_cache_mips.lib oal_cache_mips32.lib oal_cache_vr4131.lib (not exactly the same as my CPU but very close ... I hope:-( ) This library confusion continues with "oal_intr...lib" and other libs... I do have a 4.1 kernel but it does not expose all functions/methods/apis that CE needs... Does anybody have a good hint how I should start and what I should use? Chris Muench (Embedded MVP - but normally above the kernel:-)) Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58686

    - USB Client Driver Development I'm doing development on the PPC 2003 environment. I'm trying to develop a client USB driver for PPC 2003 to communicate with our host device. The development environment that we use is MS EVC++ 4.0, the specific device this is being attempted with is the HP IPAQ 6315. Does anyone here have any experience with doing USB development with the PPC 2003? Some of the issues of come up against is it appears from the Win CE 4.2 SDK that it only supports host functionality while the Hp device itself and most PDA's only have client controllers.

    - WinCE hang on load symbol for serial Any advice will be high appreciated! I have struggle with it for several days. Another working weekend will come :( First, I assume that there maybe something wrong with the PDD part, eh? Because my BSP was cloned from "lubbock" for PB4.0, and I updated it to PB4.2, maybe there was something changed. But I am confused by the drvier source, XSC1_SER16550, XSC1_SerialPdd, COM_MDD, COM_MDD2. Is there anyone so kind to give me a clue to understand them? I know the layered drive is divided into MDD and PDD, but why here are 4 modules? btw, how to find the definition of SSDI between MDD and PDD for a special driver like this serial comm-port?

    - Book about Platform Builder Hi Guys, since Windows CE 3.0 there are a lot of changes in Windows CE (5.0), but all i can find about PB is the good ol' reference 'Building Powerful Platforms with Windows CE'. In the time of 3.0 it gave me a lot of informations about how PB internaly works and how to write drivers and applications. Also under CE 4.x it was a great source although there are several changes (e.g. creating BSPs). Now with CE 5.0 further changes came into platform builder including a lot of changes about directory structures and how all the files are organized. Due to the fact that i already got 'some' experience from the 'older' OSes i'm able to came through the new version and find everything needed. But you can't memorize everything all the time and writing everything onto several papers (or my own documentation about PB) isn't also the best way. So when will there be a new book about Platform Builder???

    - Windows CE .NET 4.1 Autodial with LAN connectivity Hi to all the CE gurus I'm trying to set up a CE platform that can do auto dial-up while having a local LAN connection when the IP address cannot be resolved. According to CE's documentation, the autodial does not try to make a connection when there is any form of connectivity. Unfortunately this is my situation. I have a local private LAN (10.0.0.xxx) using fixed IP addresses for local devices, but I also need to dial up when some third party software wants to connect to an ISP somewhere else.

    - "Add Driver" catalog/BSP dependency issue I'm using the PXA27x developer's kit (WinCE 5.0) and have cloned the MainstoneII platform. Using the BSP wizard I've added a NDIS driver for the LAN91C111 Ethernet controller. In the catalog, the driver seems to end up in the right place, i.e. in the cloned BSP under "Device Drivers\Networking\Local Area Networking (LAN) devices\LAN91C111". Inspecting the generated cec-file entries for my added driver, these look (as expected) very similar to the corresponding entries for the global LAN drivers (defined in netcard.cec). I can't e.g. find any added dependencies for my added driver. However, when I add my added driver to my OS design, the driver ends up with a red cross in the driver list, indicating that it will not be included in my build. When inspecting why my driver is excluded I'm told to add any of the following features; - USB Flash Config Tool - RNDIS client - Wireless LAN (802.11) STA - Automatic Configuration and 802.1x - USB Remote NDIS class driver If I include one of the global LAN drivers instead, e.g. RealTek RTL8139, I get no dependency errors (i.e. no red cross). Since the cec-dependencies look the same, why am I getting these dependencies for my own added BSP driver when I don't get them for a global driver ? Where can I find (and change) these dependencies when adding my driver to the BSP ? Regards, Leif O -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/ Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2?

The image ran on the board and we could also run built-in CE applications like file viewers, etc. Then we loaded our own "Hello World" app compiled with eVC++, but it didn't run. Neither did it crash! There was no response at all when we clicked the icon of this application. And the debugger also didn't function.

    - Desktop PC mainboard for Windows CE .NET 4.2 Hi all, I was asked if desktop PC mainboards are eligible to use with Windows CE .NET 4.2 . I made a quick research at www.microsoft.embeddedoem.com about the supported processors and drivers and BSPs. So far as I understand if a board has one of the supported processors and there are drivers for certain chipsets on it (such as audio, video, LAN/WAN, serial, parallel, USB ports, etc.) , I can use that board with Windows CE .NET 4.2. However I will probably not get a bsp support since the configurations may vary or the oem manufacturer may not support embedded operating systems on driver basis. I will accept opinions about this subject. Any experiences or recommendations are also welcome. Thanks in advance, -- Selin Metin selinm_at_esit_dot_com_dot_tr Tag: PB 5.0 or 4.2? Tag: 58588

You'd need the 4.2 compilers and linker to develop a target for 4.2, so you
might as well start there. There's code in the PRIVATE code tree for the
CISCO 350 PCMCIA RF Ethernet card. You should be able to use that as an
example.
