    - Keeping an SMB folder mounted between startups I, after some research, found a way to mount remote directories using the 'net use' command. I saw some articles online that stated these mounted directories are not maintained between shutdowns. I am currently using a startup script to remount that directory. Unfortunately, it pops up an irritating and confusing console window, and would like to find a better(silent) way to remount, or a way to keep the mounting around between startups. If I am not able to keep the /network entries around between startups, is it possible to set-up the /network folder while disconnected from the network? (the share is accross a WLAN, and there is no way to ensure that the device will start up in-range of the hotspot) Thanks again! Roger Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103940

    - Internet connection sharing I have a windows CE 5 device with one ethernet port and 1 wireless card, and one desktop (XP) attached to the ethernet port. I have to configure the CE device to let the desktop connect to the internet using the CE device's WiFi card. I believed that all I had to do was add internet connection sharing (SYSGEN_GATEWAY) but that is not the case. The CE device is getting an IP address via a wireless router's DHCP. My first question is: am I doing something incorrect with the desktop's IP settings: * IP address: 192.168.42.1 - Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 - Default Gateway: [blank] or 192.168.42.30** (the ethernet port's IP address) - DNS: [blank]*** *I have to keep this IP address since this is where the CE device gets its boot image. ** I don't know how to configure this address *** I can only assume that this is incorrect I have configured the CE device's ICS registry settings this way: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing] "EnablePacketFiltering"=dword:0 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\Tcpip\Parms] "ForwardBroadcasts"=dword:1 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing] "EnableDnsProxy"=dword:1 "EnableDhcpAllocator"=dword:1 "PublicInterface"="SDCCF10G1" So, does anything cry out as incorrect?

    - CETK - Rebuilding the Touch Screen test in Kernel mode This was posted a while back: =================================== Newsgroups: microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder From: "Sameer Moidu \(MS\)" <smo...@microsoft.com> Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2007 01:15:02 -0800 Local: Wed, Jan 31 2007 2:15 pm Subject: Re: Windows CE6.0 CETK touch driver test fails to load touch driver dll Unfortunately the touch driver is in fact broken for CE 6.0. The issue stems from having to run the touch driver test itself in kernel mode in order to appropriately load the dll and get access to the function pointers provided by the touch driver. This would be the error you see below. Generally you can get around this by using ktux (compile the test and link to ktux.lib, and then use the -n parameter when running from tux, for example `s tux -o -n -d touchtest`). When run in kernel mode however, some of the GWES api's the touchtest relies on will fail to work properly. What I would suggest for a replacement on the touch test is to use screen calibration through calibrui, and then simply try using the touch screen in normal usage. Basically this is the exact same scenario covered by the touch test. =================================== I was trying to rebuild the touch screen against ktux.lib, but the touch screen test not build. It appears that the source file was not updated to reflect the new CE 6.00 structure. I think that you are missing these libraries: $(_PUBLICROOT)\ostest\oak\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\xmltags.lib $(_PUBLICROOT)\ostest\oak\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\dbptags.lib $(_PUBLICROOT)\ostest\SDK\INC The problem is that there are two versions of ktux.lib in my PC, and both are generating different errors. I was wondering if anyone has rebuilt the touch screen using the ktux.lib? Thanks, >M. Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103929

    - CreateFile() Hangs for serial port in Release HI All This is a follow on to an earlier post. We now have CE5 - I have an App which uses COM1,2,&3. This App works in release mode on my development Kit, and the end hardware. The App works in release mode only on the dev kit, as COM3 causes a hang when CreateFile(_T("COM3:"), GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,0,NULL,OPENEXISTING,0,NULL) is issued on my end hardware. Then end hardware should not be causing problems as we have this working in debug mode. Can anyone think what may cause this? -- Snr. Des. Eng. Northern Hi-Tec Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103915

    - Reduce the booting time of NAND Driver Hi all, I am using WinCE 5.0. There is a NAND Flash on the device. During the device bootup phase, WinCE is checking the status of all the NAND Blocks, which is increasing the booting time of the device. Is there any way I can bypass this so that i can reduce the booting time!! The flag FATFS_DISABLE_AUTOSCAN of fat fsd has been set but it keeps checking the status of all the blocks while booting.

    - yet another question about USB RNDIS for Win CE 5 - headless device ? Hello experts, let's put aside all that frustration with efforts to make usb rndis to work on the desired platform under Windows CE 5 for a moment. I just talked to one person who has asked whether that capability of Windows CE 5 to support USB rndis has certain other limitations ( in addition to the troublesome steps to make it work with very mean configuration on an average platform). Specifically, the question was about an embedded device with usb port but having no ui or a quite primitive ui. In short: will usb rndis work on headless device under Windows CE 5 ? Or somehow UI is a must ? If so, for what purpose - just to enter SSID etc - that can be read from a file or done remotely. Or there are other underwater rocks which I don't foresee in this case ? Still true for CE6 ? Anyone who have done that or can shed a light on this is welcome to speak up. Windows CE 5 documentation doesn't say much. Thanks Sergei R Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103869

    - HTTPD Password broken Hi I have been having problems with the release build of a CE5 image (XScale pxa255). Firstly we made some modifications to the serial driver to control our extra hardware. This worked on the debug verion, but not when we progressed to release. I then returned to the sample project provided with the BSP, and added our serial driver. This now worked in release, so I continued to strip this project down to produce what we needed. I came to the end of this proceedure, only to discover that the wizard.html page has errors on it. I can see no difference between the projects, has anyone got any idea what may have caused this?

    - windows ce 5.0 virtual address Hi, Pls help me to understand the windows ce 5.0 virtual address space. What I like to know is, how the 4GB space is mapped in to a device with less physical memory (say 64MB RAM & ROM).In Windows CE 5.0 each process can have 32MB. So with a device with less physical memory (say 64 MB) does it mean that I can run only 2 process? Currently am using the Mainstone kit, it has oal address table as follows. Here as per the table, virtual address of of SDRAM is in range 0x80000000 -> 0x83FFFFFF. So is it mean that a process executing in RAM will only have this virtual address range.

    - EAP Session Hello, I'm having an issue with an aggressive EAP-TLS Radius server implementation in that the timeout is set to 1 second with no retries. So, the very first EAP request/Identity has an ID set to 1 and every second another request is sent by the AP with ID+1. My problem is, my netui username dialog is brought up because the state machine doesn't yet have a username and there's no way of clicking OK before the next request is sent and therefore I'm always behind. I don't have access to the 5.0 EAP source (as I believe it's part of the premier source) but the 4.2 has code with the following comments in eapfsm.c: #if 0 ... #else // // There appear to be a lot of bad implementations out there that increment // the ID field on retransmissions of Request/Identity packets, in violation // of the EAP specification (RFC2284): // "The Identifier field MUST be the same if a request packet is // retransmitted due to a timeout while waiting for a response." // // So, we force our response packet to use the most recently received request id, // which works around these misbehaving implementations. // ... #endif I don't want to post any code because I'm not sure of the licensing issues. As you can see this is exactly what I'm interested in. Can someone please point me to maybe a registry setting, workaround, QFE I'm unaware of? I'm going to start the red tape process of purchasing the source but was wondering if someone has ran into this. As per the AP config â?? this is a clients infrastructure that we have 0 control over so changing the timeouts and retries is not an option.

    - Flash driver for wince 5.0 Hi, I am going to design flash driver of 128MB size for a handset. So I need to persist my data in the flash every time it's updated. My doubt is, Whether I have to use HIVE BASED REGISTRY or RAM based registry? The hive-based registry is most efficient on target devices that cold boot often but rarely or never warm boot.(this info is from platform builder). I think as a handset, it will need considerable number of warm boot also. So can you suggest a suitable registry type? My second doubt is selecting the internal file system. The available file systems are ROM only file system and RAM and ROM file system. It is mentioned in Platform builder that, the RAM and ROM file system is most useful in target devices that continuously power RAM because the object store is lost when RAM is not refreshed, and in the case of ROM only file system, it does not allow applications to place files in the object store. So can anybody suggest a suitable internal file system among this? Thanks in advance. Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103779

    - USB Serial KITL (WinCE 6) - can it be done? I posted this in the microsoft.public.windowsce.embedded group, but have had no response. I thought I'd give it a try here: I've got USB Serial downloads on my platform (350 KB/sec -- much better than the 11 KB/sec of a UART). Now I'd like to get KITL working over that transport. I can select that option (USB) for Transport in Target/Connectivity Options, but I'm having a bit of difficulty getting it to work. Before I continue down this road, can anyone tell me: 1) Is KITL supported over USB Serial (not USB RNDIS, which I know will work)? 2) Is there a sample implementation of KITL over USB Serial I could look at? More detail: EBOOT can use the USB transport to download its image (selecting USB for Download in Target/Connectivity Options works just fine). When I try to use USB for KITL, I get no traffic on the USB ports after enumeration has completed. So, a few more questions: 3) What is VS2005 expect when you select USB for KITL Transport? 4) What does VS2005 need to see in order to "speak KITL" over this USB pipe? 5) Is there ANY documentation on USB (NOT RNDIS) KITL? Can anyone help? Has anyone from Microsoft tried this? Thanks! -- Steve G. Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103777

I followed the bug workaround procedure and found that there aren't any Sysgen variables that are found in Anchored.txt file that are not found in the SysgenSettings.out file. The only difference is that some of the Sysgen variables are in lowercase even though they are the same variables. Does case matter, if so, what do we edit to have uniform case? We have successfully built all configurations of the operating system multiple times, however, when we attempt to build the SDK we always get the errors reported as a known Microsoft bug. Are there any other methods or procedures to bypass or solve the Microsoft Bug with regards to building an SDK in Platform 5.0? Is there another fix for this bug? Thanks.

    - Incorporating a 3rd party driver into a BSP/Image I have a .CAB file which installs a WiFi card driver onto the CE device I'm developing. I've been able to extract out all the binary files, and the registry changes necessary to get the driver up and running, but I've run into a problem. I don't know how to incorporate a binary-only driver into a BSP (especially not one with several components which installs itself across subdirectories in the \Windows folder) Even worse, the word from higher-ups says I have to get rid of the CAB support since it is taking up too much space, so I have to incorporate this driver into my image at least, even if it is impossible to make it part of the BSP.

    - data file compression I'm developing a project which needs to store compressed files for uploading to a central server. Some of these files can get pretty large (video), so I will need compression on my CE device. Additionally, the device must be configured to receive compressed files for updating (also very large). What types of file or folder compression/decompression will run on a CE environment? I will most likely need a dll, since this project will be essentially headless.

    - Serial communication on USB 2.0 losing characters when using WaitCommEvent Hello! I'm adapting a USB 2.0 driver to work with a PXA270. When using this driver as a serial driver (usbfndrv.cpp and mdd.c) together with WaitCommEvent, I'm losing 1 character for each 2048 charter. It's working fine when WaitCommEvent is not used. It's also working OK with the internal USB device on PXA27. The reason is that the page size is 64 byte on the internal USB device, but 512 on USB 2.0 device. And the FIFO in mdd is 2048 byte. The character is tossed in the SerialEventHandler in mdd.c. Is there someone who has worked out this problem earlier? Regards Amund Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103750

    - WINCE Hangs PXA270, PB5.0 Our product will reside in a truck. For longer duration testing, I left the system running and at some point of time it hangs. I'm not able to findout where it hangs. The same system in the test bench works fine for days. How do I findout why the WINCE hangs and where ? I wont be able to capture debug output continuosly as I cannot keep a laptop connected always. Is there any log I can take ? Any advice would be really helpful to me Thanks, Venkatesh Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103739

    - EAP-TLS with windows CE Hi, I was wondering how EAP-TLS authentication is performed with windows ce 5.0. I have loaded the necessary private key and certificates (they work with other devices such as laptops) onto my device and they appear to be going to the correct stores. When I go to connect to an EAP-TLS enabled network, I get a prompt for a User Name and Domain Name. What exactly is it looking for here? The Active Directory user name that the certificate was issued to? Or the subject name as on the certificate? After entering the user name and the domain, the username dialog goes away but then authentication fails and it reappears. What are possible causes of this authentication failure? Also, is there a good description somewhere out there about how EAP-TLS works with Windows CE5.0? I'd really like to be able to troubleshoot these types of problems... Thanks, Jon Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103734

    - pm.dll / RequestPowerNotifications Hi, I have a WINCE5.0 image with full power mngmnt. An application needs to be notified of a user pressing the power button. I call RequestPowerNotifications() for this, with correct parameters. I get Error 1060 : The specified service does not exist as an installed service. After this I noticed that pm.dll does not seem to be loaded. Can this be the cause ? I cannot find ANY regfile in the entire CE source-tree that references PM.dll How is this dll supposed to be loaded ? there is a lot of docu on powermanagement, but the docu assumes it works :-( and doesn't mention any settings. Any tips are welcome... Greetings, Rob. Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103721

    - Help about COM Thread Models! In my opion the STA COM server only run in one thread and the data is thread-safety , To verify my opions, I did one test. But from my test result, the two opions are not verified.I can't know what problem in this. Any help would be really appreciated! The follow is to my step to do test, include key code-section and result content: The COM Server is only to print the caller's parameter and its threadid, the code is posted follow: -------------------------------------------------- STDMETHODIMP CHello::LogTrace(SHORT Caller, SHORT Inc, DWORD Client) { FILE* fp; //szPrint is one member of CHello, it used to check whether the COM server data is thread-safety. sprintf(szPrint, "C = %d, Inc = %d, Serv = %x, Client = %x", Caller, Inc, GetCurrentThreadId(), Client); Sleep(1); fp = fopen("Test.txt", "a+"); fprintf(fp, "%s\n", szPrint); fclose(fp); return S_OK; } -------------------------------------------------- The COM Client have three steps: 1.The main thread create a server thread which build STA thread, the code is : -------------------------------------------------- DWORD WINAPI ServPorc(LPVOID lpv) { pDlgParam pParam; DWORD dwInterface; bool bContinue = true; IHello* pHello = NULL; pParam = (pDlgParam )lpv; CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED); CoCreateInstance(CLSID_StdGlobalInterfaceTable, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IGlobalInterfaceTable, (void **)&gpGIT); CoCreateInstance(CLSID_Hello, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IHello, (void **)(&pHello)); pHello->LogTrace( -1, -1, GetCurrentThreadId()); gpGIT->RegisterInterfaceInGlobal(pHello, IID_IHello, &dwInterface); PostMessage(pParam->hDlg, WM_USER + 2, 0, (LPARAM)dwInterface); MSG msg; while(GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0)) { DispatchMessage(&msg); } if (pHello) pHello->Release(); CoUninitialize(); return 0; } -------------------------------------------------- 2.After setup COM server thread, the main thread create some COM client threads. -------------------------------------------------- for (int i= 0; i< PARAL_THREAD; i++) { LogParam[i].ICookie = dwCookie; LogParam[i].Child = i; hTestServer[i] = CreateThread(NULL, 0, LogPorc, &LogParam[i], NULL, &dwTestHandle[i]); } -------------------------------------------------- 3.The child thread call the pHello->LogTrace.

    - Wave Driver registry settings Hi, I am trying to build a wave driver based on the Unified Audio model. For this I created a normal stream interface driver with all WAV_xxx functions required. The registry entry for the driver was done under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Builtin\FILTER When I try to call the wave api "waveOutGetNumDevs" the 0 is returned. Also the waveOutOpen return "NO DRIVER" found. What i fail to understand is that how do the wave api know which are the audio drivers available. Under what registry settings should the audio driver be put? Thanks in advance Mohammed Anwar Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103714

    - FATFS CacheSize - is it "overridden" by profiles, or ... ? Hello all, How does the CacheSize setting for FATFS interract between the base setting and the profiles? You can set the cache size for FATFS by setting the registry value [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS] "CacheSize"=dword:1000 like the other FATFS parameters, you can supposedly override this with a value under the profile, e.g. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ramd\FATFS] "CacheSize"=dword:1000 But what does override mean here? Does it mean that FATFS allocates a separate cache of that size for the profile (ramd here), in addition to it's base cache? Does it use the larger or smaller of all the profiles for a single cache? Or is the base setting really just a default, and every mounted FAT filesystem gets a separate cache that big? Thanks Aaron Tag: July WinCE updates Tag: 103712

I am trying to get the July WinCE updates for the whole week. But the
following web page seems never show the July update
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/embedded/aa731256.aspx
However, I browsed the Windows CE 5.0 Networked Media Device Feature
Pack Monthly Update (July 2007) page and then found the link to
Windows CE 5.0 Platform Builder Monthly Update (July 2007).

Is it my computer caching the WinCE update page or is it just a wrong
page for update information?

I think that page is not maintained in real time. The best way I've found
to get access to the QFEs as they are released to actually search for them.
The following link does that quite well:

I've had no problem getting the July QFE. You can do a search and it should
come up just fine.
