• Smart Device Development WM5 on ipaq: Widcomm vs MS BT stack

  Greetings, I'm developing a BT application with VC++, but it turns out that the ipaq hx2795 that's my target is using the Widcomm stack, not the MS stack.

• Smart Device Development WaitCursor not being displayed

  We recently ported a mobile application to .NET Compact Framework 2.0, and we're seeing a case where we set a WaitCursor, but it is not getting displayed. It was being displayed with .NET CF 1.0. The WaitCursor is set from the event handler for a button click, which starts a relatively long "Save" operation. The call stack at the point where we set the WaitCursor is shown below. Notable is the fact that once condensed, the call sta ...Show All
