• Smart Device Development Strategy/technology choice for Mobile App on VS 2005

  We have a non-mobile web app which runs asp pages with a VB.NET 2005 business rules DLL in the middle and either sql or oracle at the backend. The VB.NET DLL is activex enabled. Now we are developing a mobile app in vb 2005 for mobile data collection. This is running Sql Server CE. I would like advice on the best way to connect the mobile application to the main app (a) when the app is connected on wireless or activesync and (b) when the app is disconnected. The web app already has an integration toolset so it can create and receive XML files and it can connect to external databases to import and export data. It seems a bit goofy to ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Where to download PPC 2003 images?

  Hi, everyone. I've installed the device emulator from http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/downloads/Emulator/default.aspx including the WM5 images. I would also love to have a PocketPC/Windows Mobile 2003 emulator based on the device emulator (as it is running under VMWare, which the old emulators do not support), but the download link for " Windows Mobile 2003 Emulator Images for Device Emulator 1.0 " on that page just links to the WM5 image download page :-( Some other threads here seem to suggest that there actually are emulator images for WM 2003 out there, does anyone know where to download them Thanks, Daniel ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to: Create a Web Service Test - typo in MSDN documentation

  The above doc states to type in SOAP-Action when testing web services. This does not work. In the drop-down the correct word is SOAPAction. There are some more typos for creating web plug-ins. On step 4 for both the <How to: Create a Web Test Request Plug-In> as well as the <...Web Test Plug-In> the reference to be added mentioned actually is the using directive to the namespace. The actual reference that needs to be added is: Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.WebTestFramework. Getting started using VSTS these little typos are a little time-consuming to get around.

• SQL Server Subscription Missing

  We are seeing a problem with the users of our application. If the user closes our application from running programs (as best as we can tell as we cannot repro in dev) and SQL Mobile is in the middle of an async sync, sometimes when the application restarts it fails to load the properties for replication from the database. We are using code that is nearly identical to the samples provided by MS for performing replication async. Basically, the database still exists on the device and the application can use it just fine, but when a sync starts, the database is already there, so it tries to load the properties at which point we get a message sta ...Show All
