<P class=titolodellarticolo>Embedded Visual Basic 3.0</P>
<P class=titolodellarticolo>and the planning of Windows Ce 3.0</P>
<P class=autore>by Michele Berardi</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=occhiello>The explosive mania of the pocket applications</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>It is mattering with the times that they run to be able to
have access in immediate and simple manner to the always increasing mole of
information of whom we need, even if to be able have carried them of
breast pocket I do not ruin.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>After to to be run to gain a PDA and to have some past now
to play us on, we notice ourselves that for those this technological wonder
hand to hand itself yourselves it it more indispensable not only to organize
our engagements but also for very other requirements, even if we have
the talent of the computer program and in mind a shining idea to apply
these technologies, we wonder us if the house motherPlanned the operating
system (we will analyze in this case windows ce) makes available us some tools
of development.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The suite in matter released like free is called embedded
visual I study, itself compone of 2 environments orientated to the development
in c/c + + and visual basic, we will take care of ourselves this one. These
finish renamed for the occasion in “embedded visual basic”, in synthesis a
version to hoc of vbscript. Our escursus will drive us between the characteristic
of this environment that for how much pertains the structure of the RAD reflects
faithfully the environment visual made basic exception</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>For some actual features of the systems embedded.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=titolettodiparagrafo>The environment of development and test.</P>
<P class=bibliografia>A time unloaded the environment of development hence: <A
href="http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/downloads/emvt30.asp">http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/downloads/emvt30.asp</A>
</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> (That it weighs about like sole 300mb installer),
we proceed in easy manner to its installation on the car of development that
I remember to be able to to be used to emulate the embedded systems should
ascend an operating system NT compatibile (nt or 2000 goes well).</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>At the conclusion of the installation we will have embedded
coupled it visual basic and visual c + + ready to to be thrown.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Performing embedded visual basic we notice themselves with
big satisfaction that for ourselves gotten used to the warm and friendly RAD
of visual basic nothing is changed, we note alone some windows in more where
we will note for example a pigeonhole to come down with to the indicating
inside the name of one of the varied device supported from the technology
windows ce.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Certainty we will note the classic helm with the typical
controls of vb and all the windows to their place, but extited for the desire
to write a program of example, even if a simple form with a button that us
show the classic hallo world,</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Choosing from menu file a novelty I project we will choose
the platform for that breed the form of example, on which operate like with
visual basic (introducing controls and code clicking or writing by hand the
necessary lines of code). The successive step will be at our discretion the
generation of the code vbscript from uploadare on the car pocket pc join to
our pc how described in the manual of use of our peripheral pocket pc or the
execution of the application in one of the varied environments of emulation
distributed with the suite (the emulation will be possible alone on the systems
of development having like S. OR. windows. </P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=titolettodiparagrafo>The differences with Visual Basic</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The systems windows ce is a windows32 bit compatible (while
is not supported win16 bit for example..)</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Whose together of bookstores and functions of system much are
reduced and laughs at the bone for obvious motive of solidarity</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>And meager availability of resources (in origin perhaps could
be worth, but today the power of such peripheral grew sensitively).</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The first one what that jumps to the eye is the missed support
of the UDT (user defined types), thing that goes around with the due sense
and simulating the structure that it is wanted representative, therefore in
phase of import of the code from visual traditional basic behaves a total
rewrote of the portions of code that do use of abovementioned structures.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The general controls of use and of support to the interface
user they are all presents (listbox,treeview,filesystem,ecc..) and all supported
the methods exhibited from their seeming desktop, even if turning between
the newsgroup complain themselves bug in the management of some methods (for
example of winsock control..) .</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Other scarcity the direct management of the popup menu (using
the calls to the bookstores of system we can hold in check this feauture ,
the web abounds of code of example..)</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The relevant functions to the register there are all and
an appropriate api-viewer installed with the tools of embedded visual I study,
will help to recreate us the part of code necessary basic code function to
the purposes of our program is correctly defined.</P>
<P class=titolettodiparagrafo> </P>
<P class=titolettodiparagrafo>To manage THE Pop Up and the function “tap and
hold” menu from Embedded Visual Basic</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>How indicated in the short panoramic one on embedded visual
basic an of the scarcities in limits of management directed by part of embedded
visual basic they are the Pop Up menu and the function “tap and hold” typical
of the palm systems equipped of touch screen, equivalent of the function “right
key of the mouse” natural part of the traditional pc.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I will pick the occasion for drive you throught some steps
in the accomplishment of a simple application with embedded visual inclusive
basic of the management of the Pop menu Up, using some actual functions
of bookstore of the kernel of windows ce.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Basic visual basic environment skill is required, therefore
alone some intervent when in the course of the guided accomplishment will
be found us opposite to actual operations of embeded visual basic.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Ahead all we will proceed to the creation of a new project,
if to the start of embedded visual basic will not appear the window “new project”,
we will proceed choosing from the menu “File” the voice “new project” and
from the window will choose a relevant project to an of the platforms installed.
For convenience we choose the model named: “Windows CE for Pocket PC project”
and we choose “ok”. Now we will have the classic empty form on which
build our application.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>For first thing we add to the project a new form of program,
moving us in the window project or from the menu file choosing the voice “add
moduls”, to its inside we will introduce the following lines of code:</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>All it adds the suite Microsoft Embedded visual I study 3.0
is free and is rich of relevant documentation to the planning of the windows
ce devices, even I notice some bug in the planning of some relevant components
to adoce (I think does not reduced to the smaller limits and suitable to manage
the systems windows ce...) and winsock.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The community of developers is lively at work for patching
or use some tricks for scarcities aside of mommy microsoft like for example
the direct support for the popup menu and the scarcity of UDT (user
defined types).</P>
