Pocket PC Forum / End Users / ActiveSync / April 2005ActiveSync x Palm Desktop Conduits
Hi, I'm a PalmDesktop conduit developer. I'm now moving to Windows CE and i'm trying to understand how the activesync process works. In the Palm OS world, when the user presses the hotsync button, the conduit is called and PalmDesktop calls a method in our dll so that our dll can send and receive data from the pda. Does WinCE provides something like this? I don't want to synchronize any kind of data besides my application databases, which are in a proprietary format (not pocketaccess neither anything else). I had downloaded and tried the SyncWiz.awx but it creates lots of files and stuff that i feel that are more than what i really want to do. Many thanks guich Hi, The simplest way to do this is to take a look at the registry keys that indicate when ActiveSync is complete. Check out ActiveSync Keys from www.pocketpcfaq.com/applications/  SignatureChris De Herrera http://www.pocketpcfaq.com http://www.tabletpctalk.com http://www.pocketpctalk.com http://www.mobilitytalk.com > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > guich Hey, nice site! thanks... guich Hi Chris, So, the would to use the AutoStartOnConnect and then the RAPI to do the synchronization? If yes, is there a rapi newsgroup so i can see messages? many thanks guich Hi, There's no RAPI newsgroup. You can get more info on RAPI from MSDN - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wceactsy/html/c erefRAPIReference.asp SignatureChris De Herrera http://www.pocketpcfaq.com http://www.tabletpctalk.com http://www.pocketpctalk.com http://www.mobilitytalk.com > Hi Chris, > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > guich > There's no RAPI newsgroup. You can get more info on RAPI from MSDN - You wouldn't know how to stop a process on the device, would you? I can start one going, but I'd prefer to be able to close it before transferring its data files.

I'm trying to use the Communication library from http://www.opennetcf.org to do exactly that, and it doesn't work reliably. I rather suspect that some of the messages from ActiveSync get sent too quickly and the autostarted app isn't always ready. It works sometimes though. My next experiment is to make the app into a Windows service, and have it just listen for ActiveSync connections. Feel free to email me direct if you find out anything useful, or want to exchange tips :-) BTW, if you would prefer commercial components that do the same sort of thing, there are some at http://www.tmssoftware.com Cheers, Jim Cooper __________________________________________ Jim Cooper jcooper@tabdee.ltd.uk Tabdee Ltd http://www.tabdee.ltd.uk TurboSync - Connecting Delphi to your Palm __________________________________________ Thanks Jim.
