    - CE5.0 with multiple network cards - image hangs Dear experts, we are trying to make an demo product for one of our prospective customers. They wish a WindowsCE based network device. So we started from an Enterprise Web pad, Platform Builder 5.0, and a LEX board (x86 like, 3 soldered in RTL8139 adapters). The debug image was built, just by adding a network capabilities of one RTL8139 adapter from PB5 catalog ( no such provision like 'Second RTL' is available in PB5). Assuming that multiple driver instances will be created at run time. When only one network adapter is enabled by jumpers, debugger runs and image is more or less stable. However, if 2 network adapters are enabled by jumpers, the kernel debugger only progresses to a certain point where image always hangs. The last debugger output is below : ------------ .... Loaded symbols for 'E:\WINCE500\PBWORKSPACES\WBT50_VIA26\RELDIR\VIACN_X86_DEBUG\USBD.DLL' 4294773927 PID:85f8c11a TID:85f8c0ea 0x85fca800: USBD: DLL attach 4294773927 PID:85f8c11a TID:85f8c0ea 0x85fca800: +USBD:HcdAttach, hcd: 0x242E50 4294773927 PID:85f8c11a TID:85f8c0ea 0x85fca800: -CDevice::Initialize, success! 4294773927 PID:85f8c11a TID:85f8c0ea 0x85fca800: +CHW::Initialize 4294773927 PID:85f8c11a TID:85f8c0ea 0x85fca800: !!!Warning!!!

Setting resume/suspend/reset bits of USBCMD ---------------------------- and that's it. No clean rebuild helps or restarting of PB, rebooting the desktop machine, etc. I wonder how the enabling the second adapter can cause the hang on the usbd module ? Or, what special settings have to be implemented in platform to support 2 identical network adapters in Windows CE image ? Sincerely Sergei Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70351

    - Multiple Interface USB Class driver loading in CE5.0 for OHCD Hi, I am writting a USB class driver which have 2 interfaces. I have only one DLL which takes care of both interfaces of the USB device. So at device attach time [inside USBDeviceAttach()],I am loading my single driver using ActivateDevice() function.I am also creating the required pipes for both interfaces in same USBDeviceAttach() function. Here my USBDeviceAttach() function is successful but USB OHCI stack keeps asking for driver name in a popup window.Where am I wrong? Do I need to load the same DLL two times for the two interface I have as it seems that stack wants me to load driver for both interface seperately. How to get out of this problem? Thanks a lot.

    - Driver Global Hanging Hi, I ported one BSP on PXA255. It;s working fine in my first board. The same code is hanging when i access DriverGlobals in my Bootlaoder OEMPlatformInit(). It;s hanging exactly at the line memset((LPVOID)pDriverGlobals,0,sizeof(DRIVER_GLOBALS)); The difference between current hardware board and previous board is not related to SDRAM/Flash Memory. Only there is a change in Ethernet interface. If i remove accessing DRV_Globals in my entire Eboot it's able to download OS image, i verified that. BUt, after that it's hanging in OEMInit(). So i felt that this this DRV_Global probelm in my Eboot, may have impact on this. Please suggest. Thanks & Regards, Peter Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70331

    - Connect or disconnect from network Hi, I would like to figure out to detect when a ce 4.2 device is connected or disconnect to or from the network. I found the API call CeSetUserNotificationEx(). I set the trigger event to CNT_EVENT, and the trigger event type to NOTIFICATION_EVENT_NET_CONNECT or NOTIFICATION_EVENT_NET_DISCONNECT. I did not get any notification when I disconnected and reconnected the network cable. Does anyone have any suggestion or an alternative? Thanks in advanced.

    - A Money Challenge>>Can You Do Itt? Here's the challenge: HOW TO MAKE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON PAYPAL.COM THIS IS REAL... TAKE YOUR TIME AND READ THIS..... NOBODY IS SCAMMING YOU THE 5 MINUTES IT WILL TAKE YOU TO READ THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR FUTURE! TURN $6 INTO $6,000++!!! HOW TO MAKE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON PAYPAL.COM I'm sure you've read these letters asking you to send $1 to 6 different addresses. Putting your home address or mailing address on the internet can be risky, but through paypal all you have to provide is your email address. It's safe and easy just go to www.paypal.com and set up your FREE account! No credit card needed. I am not a gullible person and Have never trusted things like this, but I gave it a try, hey its only $6, I figured at least 6 people would respond out of the millions of people that use the internet. You should give it a try too! You have nothing to lose, and $$ thousands to gain! Read on for the letter that I found... HOW TO TURN $6 INTO $6,000++!!! THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!!! IT WORKS!!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!! A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be some kind of scam" but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 though paypal to each of the emails stated in the article. You then place your own email address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 news groups. (There are thousands) No catch. That was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to lose except $6.00,right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it. It follows the same regulations as the "mailed chain letters, which according to the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) is indeed legal! Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!? Within 7 days, I started getting money in my paypal account! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $15.00. By the end second week I had made a total over $800.00!!! In the third week I had over $6,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $21,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's Certainly worth $6.00. I have spent more than that on the lottery!!!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works? Also, make sure you print a copy of this article now, so that you can get the information off of it as you need it. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ REQUIREMENTS: You must have a confirmed paypal account. If you do not Have a paypal account you can go to www.paypal.com and follow the instructions to set up a free account. In order to place the initial $6 into your account, you will have to confirm your bank account with paypal (which may take a few days). Paypal is 100% secure and is used by millions of people world wide. Confirming a www.paypal.com account simply means (1) paypal will first ask you to confirm the email you used to sign up your paypal account by sending you an email with a link for you to click to that email. As soon as you click that link your email is confirmed. (2) Paypal will then make two small deposits into your bank account if you set up your paypal account with a checking or savings bank account. Or paypal will make two small deposits to your credit card if you set up your paypal account with your credit card. Then after a few days (it takes up to a few days for these deposits to appear in your bank account or on your credit card statement) then after a few days you go back to the www.paypal.com website and sign in. Then you click where it says this account is not yet confirmed. A screen will pop up that gives you 2 boxes to fill in. You then enter the numbers of the 2 small deposit amounts (two separate 2 digit numbers) that were deposited to your bank account or credit card. Now you have a working and confirmed paypal account and can receive payments. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ [STEP 1] Send, though paypal, $1.00 to each email on the below list. Make the subject of the payment "Email List" and in the comments, write "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST." What you are doing is creating a service by this - and best of all you are not giving your home address to anyone you do not know. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!! YOU ARE CREATING A SERVICE. The email list...... Paypal accounts are on this email lists; #1) jpenner_9472@hotmail.com #2) giveitatry@usenet.com #3) skippyo@msn.com #4) tgadams@hotmail.co.uk #5) dave77777777771@yahoo.com #6) rockuemore2208@aol.com WWW.PAYPAL.COM Subject of Payment: ***Email List*** Comments: ***PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST.*** [STEP 2] Now take the #1) email off the list that you see above, move the other addresses up one (6 becomes 5 & 5 becomes 4, etc) the put YOUR email address (the one used in your paypal account) as #6) on the list. **MAKE SURE THE EMAIL YOU SUPPY IS EXACTLY AS IT APPEARS IN YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT.** [STEP 3] Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups, message boards, etc. (I think there are about 32,000 groups or more) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make - as well as everyone else on the list! Don't put them in the first 200 move around a little remember other people are doing the same thing you are. In this situation your job is to let as many people see this letter as possible. So they will make you and me rich!!!! You can even start posting the moment your email is confirmed. Payments Will still appear in your paypal account even while your bank account is being confirmed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Payment Details Amount: $1.00 USD Subject: **Email List** Note: **PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST** (email): username@whatever.??? View the details of this transaction online *********************************************************************** EVERY THING IS TRUE UNLESS U BELEIVE IN THAT!!! *********************************************************************** # DIRECTIONS # HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS # MESSAGE BOARDS # Step #1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your CURSOR at the beginning of this letter and drag your CURSOR to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu.

Click them one by one then you will find the option to post a new message. Step #5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting 'Paste' from the 'Edit' menu.

You're done with your first one! Congratulations! THAT'S IT!! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away. After you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS AND/OR MESSAGE BOARDS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving money within days! **JUST MAKE SURE THE EMAIL YOU SUPPY IS EXACTLY AS IT APPEARS ON PAYPAL.** $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Now the WHY Part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example). So then I Made $5.00 with my email at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my email at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me. Now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my email at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my email at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my email at #2 and they only receive 5 replies that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my email at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625.00! With an original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING!! When your email is no longer on the list, you just take latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to emails on the list, putting your email at number 6 again. And start posting again. Your paypal TRANSACTION ACTIVITY will look like this: DATE: June 30, 2008 *** TYPE: Payment *** TO/FROM: From *** NAME/EMAIL: Mary Jones GROSS: $1.00 USD *** PAYPAL FEE: -$0.33 USD *** NET AMOUNT: $0.67 USD ***ACTUAL AMOUNTS*** DATE: June 30, 2008 *** TYPE: Payment *** TO/FROM: From *** NAME/EMAIL: John Canada GROSS: $1.00 CAN *** PAYPAL FEE: -$0.11 CAN *** NET AMOUNT: $0.89 CAN ***ACTUAL AMOUNTS*** The thing to remember is, do you realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $6?? And change your destiny??? Just see how it works!! Think It!! People have said, What if the plan is played out and no one sends you the money? So what are the chances of that happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will work. Seriously, most people think this is a scam, but you actually do get thousands of dollars out of it, it is NOT another crazy scam, if people follow through with sending out $6, it works!!!!!

    - NDIS hanging during Init I am trying to get an NDIS driver working on our system. During bootup, Device.exe loads the PCI bus driver, which enumerates our network card. It then loads ndis and points it to that card's instance. So far so good. NDIS calls the driverentry in the card's driver, and then calls MiniportInitialize. Both of those complete fine. However, at this point things don't progress any more. My driver continues to get MiniportSetInformation calls periodically and it handles them. But NDIS_Init never completes, which doesn't allow device.exe to load any more devices or complete. Any already initialized devices continue to run, so it isn't a system hang, interrupt issue, exception, or complete device.exe hang. I can use kernel tracker and see that most time is in the idle thread. What can cause NDIS_Init to hang while initializing a card after MiniportInitialize is complete? Thanks, Bryan Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70308

    - SMSC 91C111 in CE 5.0 Has anyone had any success using the SMSC 91C111 in CE 5.0 and not drop packets for a large ping ? Previously, I was offloading the NIC buffers in MiniportISR and passing them to the stack in MiniportHandleInterrupt since the calls to NdisMEthIndicateReceive take so long to copy the data and pass it on. In CE 5.0, it appears that MiniportISR can no longer interrupt MiniportHandleInterrupt, so this approach is failing. Unless I move the unload to the kernel interrupt, I'm not clear how to interface with NDIS and handle a ping with more than four packets. Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70302

For test purposes I have loaded a font file from my development PC and all is fine. However since the fonts that are supplied with the SDK / Platform Builder do not include arabic script I am wondering if there would be a Licensing issue with using the equivalent font file taken from a Windows XP installation - or maybe the reason there is no arabic on CE is simply to save space - not a lisencing issue? I cannot track down any info on this so if anyone has any knowledge of the issues here I would value your input. Rgds Dylan. Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70283

    - CETK Tests for NAND Flash Dear All, I am working on NAND Flash driver for 32 Mbyte NAND Flash. This is an on-board NAND flash. I want to know if the Storage Device Benchmark Tests are applicable to NAND flash. The Platform Builder 5.0 Help file gives the following description for Benchmark Tests :- " The Storage Device Block Driver Benchmark Test analyzes the performance of a storage device in reading and writing. The test scans a storage device and attempts to read from and write to every sector on the device. The test displays information about the time required to complete each operation. You may find it useful to know the time required to complete a read or write operation if you have problems with the file system on the storage device. For example, the test may show you that one disk takes 400 milliseconds (ms) to write, passing the test, while another disk takes 1500 ms to write, failing the test. The following table shows the hardware requirements for the Storage Device Block Driver Benchmark Test. Requirements Description A storage device- A storage device that uses a memory block (DSK) device driver, for example a PCMCIA ATA disk or PC Card. " any clues?

    - usb mass storage client driver I was trying to implement mass storage device on USB function controller driver on Windows CE 5.0. After configuring the registry USB function controller driver for Mass storage class and connected the device, I found that one of the command in mass storage READ_FORMAT_CAPACITY (0x23) was not supported. I got the debug messages as below: UsbMsFn!STORE_IsCommandSupported: ++ UsbMsFn!STORE_IsCommandSupported: command 0x23 UsbMsFn!STORE_IsCommandSupported: unsupported command 0x23 UsbMsFn!STORE_IsCommandSupported: -- UsbMsFn!BOT_HandleCBW: command not supported in the mass storage code i found that there was no implementation of the code for this READ FORMAT CAPACITY command. After this command was not processed, the endpoint was stalled and the bus was reset by the USB host. After I hard coded with the READ FORMAT CAPACITY. there is another problem when i tried to write into the SDMMC card which is the mass storage device. it is failing to write into that SDMMC. and the memory property showing the device has zero memory and zero used space( this is happening when i am trying to write into the mass storage device ). thanks Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70252

    - NDIS Optimized Receive Handling in CE 5.0 Does anyone have any testimonial for this making much of a difference to their performance ? I spent a lot of time trying to get the performance I wanted in CE 4.1 and ended up never being able to get the stack to accept packets with NdisMIndicateReceivePacket and return NDIS_STATUS_PENDING. It always copied the data and returned immediately with NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS. I'm wondering if this optimized receive handling is now enabling this functionality in CE where a packet might never get copied, but just passed up and down the stack until return to the driver pool with MiniportReturnPacket. Otherwise, what is this optimization and why don't I get it unless I jump through the list of hoops ? Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70250

    - CPU Utilization Changing with Remote Tools Hello, I have a unique problem under WINCE 5.0 I have a network application that seems to be hogging the CPU - It takes up about 60-70% of the processor. This was unacceptable so I started looking into what could be causing the problem. During this debugging process I found something a little confusing ... If I connect the Remote Call Profiler (simply connect, not even launching an app or collecting data - i.e. just having ConPMon.exe running) my App's efficiency all of a sudden drops to an expected value of 10-15% utilization. My first thought was that the Remote Performance Monitor was just reporting the utilization wrong so I ran a TOP like program and it verified this behaviour. I still didn't like it so I hooked a scope up to my board and used the idle routine and a led toggle and sure enough my scope shows the same results. So, I'm left with ConPMon.exe kicking my system into a "good" state. I can disconnect the profiler, restart the app and everything is fine. The system stays in a â??goodâ?? state. This happens if I connect via activesync or a tcp manual cemgr. No other remote tool does this (put system into a "good" state). Moreover, no other tool will remove the system from a "good" state except for the Remote Kernel Tracker. If I try to use the Remote Kernel Tracker all bets are off - the system goes back into a "bad" state and the app runs at 60-70% CPU utilization. Between these two system states the registry is the same. I've tried switching thread priorities and quantum times of my app. With an OS debug build the App runs at around 25% but comparing a retail build to a debug build is a little trickier. I canâ??t seem to find out what constitutes a â??goodâ?? state. I'm leaning toward a socket select call or overall TCP/UDP state causing my problem. The app is pretty simple and only single threaded. ConPMon.exe and my App share the following module linkages: wspm, ssllsp, ws2 (and of course coredll) - all IP "stuff". If anyone is familiar with what might be going on while loading ConPMon.exe and/or the remote kernel tracker and might have some ideas as to what their threads might be changing I would greatly appreciate it.

    - SetSystemMemoryDivision kills my display? I'm working on a PXA255-based device. I have two different CE images based on the same BSP, the only difference is in catalog components (one falls into the Core license, one into the Pro license). With one image (Pro) the device boots fine, everything is ok. With the other build (Core), when a call to SetSystemMemoryDivision is made that gives Storage Memory < ~20% of available RAM (not sure exactly the division, but it's around there) then the display goes blank. A scope on the pixel clock shows it has quit running. The OS itself is still running. I believe there's a bug somewhere that is in both, but is only manifesting in one image. I also think the fact the pixel clock is killed is just happenstance, on the other image it's probably stepping on memory less obvious. To make things more interesting, KITL and kernel debugging are not an option right now (don't ask), which is why I've not traced into the call. So my questions actually are: 1. Where does the call to SetSystemMemoryDivision go? 2. What might be causing this? I'm not sure where to even start Ideas? -Chris Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70242

    - PXA27x / IXP4xx CE5.0 BSPs production readiness? What are the thoughts out there on how "production ready" the shipped CE5.0 BSPs are for the Intel IXP425 and PXA270? We are contemplating a new development with one or other of these processors and will run CE 5.0. MS say that they have put a lot of effort into ensuring that the BSPs for 5.0 are really production ready. We found that it took a lot of work to get the CE .NET 4.2 BSP for the PXA255 to the state where we considered that it was ready for shipping. Is it just as hard for these BSPs or have MS/Intel done what they say? Thanks for all comments, Andrew. Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70220

    - Mass Storage USB Function Driver on PXA27x Working! (Almost) Hi all, I just started to test the USB Mass Storage Function Driver (CE 5.0) on our PXA27x platform a few days ago. At first nothings seemed to work. I installed the latest QFEs (Till Q1 2005), and fixed the whole Cable Detct routine. Now when I connect to my Notebook I get a "Stall send on In Endpoint = 0x1", followed by a 10-20 seconds timeout, then a Stall again. But after some (usually 2-3) loops the Mass Storage device is detected correctly and mounted. Then it works stable for reads and writes. The interesting thing is that if I enable the "Transport" debug zone int the USB function driver, the mass storage is recognized immediately, without stalling. I suspect there is a timing problem somewhere. Another strange thing: if I loopack the USB fucntion with the USB Host on our CE platform the USB mass storage disk is never detected correctly. I get the following Debug Messages in an infinite loop: BOT_DataTransfer error(5.3.3, dwCswErr:1460, dwUsbErr:0x0, dwTimeout:4000) Retry CSW But maybe this is a problem with the USB Mass Storage Client driver on the Host side (I had some problems with other USB mass storage devices in the past) I know there should be some fix available from Microsoft, but I cannot wait much longer. Does anyone know when the fix will be available? Or maybe someone knows how to solve the problem? regards, Germano Kern Toradex www.toradex.com Tag: Build starting point Tag: 70209

    - What's in an SDK? Do you need one if Platform Builder is on the same machine? If you generate an SDK with platform builder, then just install it on the same machine, could you just skip the SDK, use the standard SDK, and use lib and include paths to point into the platform directories to get headers and libs? The reason I ask is that so far we have had a lot of trouble re-creating our 4.2 projects in the 5.0 IDE. It seems MS has removed a lot of functionality in order to only support the command line. So far there's been a learning curve (where are my menu options, where are my settings), plus some apparent bugs (have to create an new empty .def file if you rename the output), plus apparent compiler\tool differences (3.0 and 4.2 could compile STLPort, but 5.0 seems to have some problems... but eVC does not... even though apparently eVC with SP4 is same compiler as PB 5.0).... so we were going to try just using eVC, but then you have to create an SDK... this is an rather long extra step it would be nice to do without if we just can "repoint" eVC at the platform directories.

    - Problem seeing OutputDebugStrings output from CE 5.0 target Hello All, I have created a device driver for my CEPC system, which I have included in the sysgen, along with registry entries to automatically load my driver on bootup. Over the course of my XXX_Init() routine, I call OutputDebugString() a number of times to send debug output to the debugger (PB 5.0); and I believe the XXX_Init() is indeed being called, becaused my driver appears in the "gi mod" list. However, I never see the debug statements. What might be the problem? More Specific Info on my configuration: 1] I am using Platform Builder 5.0 to attach to the device and download the image. This process works successfully. 2] As noted, the command "gi mod" shows my device driver among the other modules. My driver is also listed under the builtin/active registry key. I take these signs to indicate that my device driver is being loaded, and that my XXX_Init() routine is being called. Is this a valid assumption? 3] I am looking for the output from OutputDebugString() in the "debug" pane of the Platform Builder environment. Is this where it should appear? [I also checked the terminal showing the bootup serial output, and the debug statements do not appear there, either.] 4] I am using the "release" build of the CEPC system (since the debug build had errors during the sysgen). Would this affect whether the debug strings are displayed? I am inclined to think that it would not, especially since I do see debug statements from other drivers in the system (such as the keyboard layout driver).
