I'd like to suggest that you guys also look more seriously at ways that you could expand (not just improve) the current APIs. For example, it would be wonderful to have a standardized API for the accelerometer/G-sensors that are present in many of the newer devices these days, as this would make it MUCH easier to write software that works on a variety of devices.

If this isn't the best place to post this suggestion, could you point me someplace else?

Good morning,

First - thanks for your promising appliacation.

But I have strange problem - after (repeating) downloads I got (when trying to install) only message "Cannot open install package..." (message is in Czech language on my computer).

Regards

Rene

Whatever happened to good old text file output? What reads sdf? A spreadsheet would be better than this sdf. A database file seems sort of funny.

looks good.

Is there a way to export the sdf file to another more common format?

I´m not a WM developer and installing SQL Server seams an overkill solution although I´m eager to use the tool.

As ER said, it would useful for people like me to have a text file output too.

Thanks

What a great program:

wmaut.exe output.sdf mywmapp.exe

> Missing or invalid directory: Directory mywmapp.exe does not exist.

If I try pointing it at a folder, instead of an executable, it happily ignores my executables and generates a 5mb empty sdf file.

If you're going to release a tool that only handles one or two scenarios correctly, then you might clue us in on what those scenarios are.

Rear Speaking to Internal Speaking Possible?

Carlos — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 12:44:47 GMT

Hello,

Is there an API to be able to redirect all the sound going to the rear speaker into the internal speaker? I need to implement this feature. In all forums that I looked it seems that nobody has been able to implement it due to a limitation in the API of Windows Mobile 6 until..... I found this VOIP company (http://www.ageet.com/us/news/2008.06.19-agephone-mobile-2.5-speakerphone-edition.htm ) that claim to be able to do this speaker switching , how is it possible? Any suggestions?

Does it support API functions which contained in DLLs loaded by LoadLibrary or LoadLibraryEx function.

Try Excel Query to get into an sdf, you may need an odbc connection in data sources to connect to it?
