copied exe-file is not a valid application

Hi,
I have written a litte application (eMbedded Visual C++) for Pocket PC 2002
to copy an exe-file from the root-directory to the startmenu-directory.
It seems to work fine, but when I start the copied application (the exe-file) I get the message
"... is not a valid Pocket PC application"
What is wrong with this applcation?
Or does anyone know how to call Copy from an Pocket PC application directly?
Here is the code:
// Setup.cpp : Defines the entry point for the application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#define SOURCEFILE_NAME "\\banking.exe"
#define DESTINATIONFILE_NAME "\\Windows\\Start Menu\\banking.exe"
#define DESTINATIONFILE_NAME_GERMAN "\\Windows\\Startmenü\\banking.exe"
int WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPTSTR lpCmdLine,
int nCmdShow)
{
// TODO: Place code here.
BOOL german = FALSE;
FILE *file = 0;
FILE *rfile = 0;
rfile = fopen (SOURCEFILE_NAME, "rb");
if (!rfile)
{
MessageBox (0, TEXT("Error"), TEXT("Setup"), MB_TOPMOST);
return 1;
}
file = fopen (DESTINATIONFILE_NAME_GERMAN, "wb");
if (!file)
file = fopen (DESTINATIONFILE_NAME, "wb");
else
german = TRUE;
if (file)
{
char buffer [1000];
size_t num_read = 0;
size_t num_written = 0;
size_t num_read_tot = 0;
size_t num_written_tot = 0;
do
{
num_read = fread (buffer, sizeof (char), 1000, rfile);
if (feof(rfile))
break;
num_read_tot += num_read;
if (num_read > 0)
{
num_written= fwrite (buffer, sizeof (char), num_read, file);
num_written_tot += num_written;
}
else
break;
} while (1);
fclose (file);
}
fclose (rfile);
DWORD attr = 0;
BOOL rc = 0;
attr = GetFileAttributes (TEXT(SOURCEFILE_NAME));
if (german)
rc = SetFileAttributes (TEXT(DESTINATIONFILE_NAME_GERMAN), attr);
else

Hello,
You are trying to reinvent the wheel by copying yourself the info from the file. Use the CopyFile function.
But your error
"... is not a valid Pocket PC application"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
has probably appeared for another reason...

You should also look at SHFileOperation

It's not a good idea to copy *.exe files to start menu...
Create a shortcut with CECreateShortcut(...) instead.
If this is part of a application setup (in a cab file) just create the shortcut with the build in features:
...
[DefaultInstall]
...
CEShortcuts = Shortcuts
...
[Shortcuts]
BankingMenuText,0,banking.exe
...
John

John,
thank you for your comment.
Perhaps you ore someone else can tell me how to create a shortcut (for the banking.exe) from a Pocket PC - application ?
(The background is as follows:
I want to deliver my banking-application on SD-Card;
a little setup-application on the SD-Card copies the banking.exe from SD-Card into the program-directory of the Pocket PC.
And last but not least this setup-application shoult insert a shortcut for the copied banking.exe in the Start Menu.

OK,
cabwiz.exe does exactly the job.
One open question:
How can I achieve, that after executing the cab-file is N O T deleted?

Create Shortcut with SHCreateShortcut.
Not deleting cab file : mark it as read-only on the desktop (before copying) 8)

[REQUEST] hacking MVNO support into framework.jar

hello! i hope this is the right forum for my request.
i`ve tried to hack some files from JS2, which supports national roaming without data roaming enabled, into the deodexed JVK framework.jar. the result was crashing com.....phone and no working phone function.

you can see in the code of JS2 there is some code with "isNationalRoaming" which in JVK does not exist. i think this is the reason why national roaming without data roaming enabled is not working in JVK (and also many other sgs roms). i`ve tried to swap the JS2 GsmServiceStateTracker.smali file into the JVK framework, smali it back to .dex and put services.dex back into framework.jar with 7zip. the result was no working com...phone.
i`m no pro, so i think i did something wrong and some of you pro devs maybe have the answer how to do this. many users with virtual network operators like hutchison 3, bob, yesss, and many more would be happy if there will be a way without enabling the risky dataroaming, which could be very expensive when you are geting near a frontier and using data from foreign countries.

push
unwanted data roaming could be really expensive, please help. a lot of users would love you for a working solution! i would donate some beers for a working howto/fix!
to all MVNO users like 3, bob, yesss, .... push this thread with your comments how you would love national roaming without the risk of high costs in the near of frontiers!

I think solution could be easier
Who is your mobile provider?

BOB in austria, MVNO in a1 network.
bob: at 23211
a1: at 23201

Extract this file, paste 'spn-conf.xml' on system/etc/ and reboot
Let me know if it works!

IT WORKS! THANX DUDE!

Should this file also work for the Desire (Provider= 3 Austria)
Greetings

r u schnello from braunau?
i think it should work. if u have root, try it.
if it doesn`t work, delete the file again. it won`t harm anything.
edit: the fake_home data for 3 isn`t in the file. i will try to find some more infos about 3 roaming.

MAPIdotnet and binary message body

Best all,
A while ago I tried to make a simple application which can export all my smses and mmses to my local database server. It runs quite smoothly but I can't manage to get the correct mms body data. It seems that about 5% of the exported body data(for example a sent picture in jpeg format) is different from the original jpeg picture/body data: the exported picture data can't be viewed, it is corrupt.
I suspect the method of exporting the data must be changed from string to binary, but I don't know exactly how to proceed.
I'm using C# 2008 in combination with the MAPIdotnet library, and my target device is a HTC HD Mini with Windows Mobile 6.5 professional.
The part of my code where it's going wrong:
Code:
ASCIIEncoding asen = new ASCIIEncoding();
byte[] ba = asen.GetBytes(s);
bw.Write(ba);
bw.Close();
fs.Close();
if (messages[msgID].Body != null)
{
FileStream fs2 = File.Create("\\Opslagkaart\\Debug\\body_" + Convert.ToString(msgID) + ".dat");
BinaryWriter bw2 = new BinaryWriter(fs2);
System.Text.UnicodeEncoding enc = new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding();
byte[] file = enc.GetBytes(messages[msgID].Body);
//bw2.Write(messages[msgID].Body);
bw2.Write(file);
bw2.Close();
fs2.Close();
}
In combination with MAPIdotnet's code:
Code:
public string Body
{
get
{
IStreamChar s = (IStreamChar)this.msg.OpenProperty(cemapi.PropTags.PR_BODY, 0);
if (s == null)
return "";
IntPtr p = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(4);
char[] b = new char[3];
StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
int c, len = b.Length * 2;
do
{
s.Read(b, len, p);
c = Marshal.ReadInt32(p);
str.Append(new string(b, 0, c / 2));
}
while (c >= len);
Marshal.FreeHGlobal(p);
return str.ToString();
}
}
Can somebody give a hint of how to proceed?
Thanks,

I suddenly got some more inspiration and, with help from google, I've managed to correctly retrieve the binary jpeg attachments of two of my mmses.
The code part of my program:
Code:
//if (messages[msgID].BodyBinary.Length>0)
//{
FileStream fs2 = File.Create("\\Opslagkaart\\Debug\\body_" + Convert.ToString(msgID) + ".dat");
BinaryWriter bw2 = new BinaryWriter(fs2);
bw2.Write(messages[msgID].BodyBinary);
bw2.Close();
fs2.Close();
//}
The code part of the customized MAPIdotnet:
Code:
private static IntPtr ReadBuffer;
static int Read(OpenNETCF.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IStream strm, byte[] buffer)
{
if (ReadBuffer == IntPtr.Zero) ReadBuffer = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(int)));
try
{
strm.Read(buffer, buffer.Length, ReadBuffer);
}
catch (NullReferenceException e)
{
//do nothing
}
return Marshal.ReadInt32(ReadBuffer);
}
public byte[] BodyBinary
{
get
{
int buffsize = 1024*1024*2; /* If mms body is bigger than 2MB we have a problem here */
byte[] buffer = new byte[buffsize];
Read(this.msg.OpenProperty(cemapi.PropTags.PR_BODY, 0), buffer);
byte[] data = buffer;//ms.ToArray();
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(ReadBuffer);
return data;
}
}
But now ALL bodies are saved as 2MB files.. including the empty ones from for example a sms. And not all mms bodies are of the max size of 2mb. My carrier/phone supports up to 1MB. Perhaps I need to get some 'dynamic size' buffer instead of the fixed one. Does anyone have an idea on how to determine the size of the
this.msg.OpenProperty(cemapi.PropTags.PR_BODY, 0)

stream ?

I've solved all my problems by means of the following code (for mapidotnet):
Code:
private static IntPtr ReadBuffer;
static int Read(OpenNETCF.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IStream strm, byte[] buffer)
{
int returnvalue = 0;
if (ReadBuffer == IntPtr.Zero) ReadBuffer = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(int)));
try
{
strm.Read(buffer, buffer.Length, ReadBuffer);
returnvalue = Marshal.ReadInt32(ReadBuffer);
}
catch (NullReferenceException e)
{
returnvalue = 0;
}
return returnvalue;
}
public byte[] BodyBinary
{
get
{
int newdatasize = 0;
int buffsize = 1024*1024*3; /* If mms body is bigger than 3MB we have a problem here */
byte[] buffer = new byte[buffsize];
newdatasize = Read(this.msg.OpenProperty(cemapi.PropTags.PR_BODY, 0), buffer);
if (newdatasize < 0) { newdatasize = 0; }
byte[] data = new byte[newdatasize];
Buffer.BlockCopy(buffer, 0, data, 0, newdatasize);
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(ReadBuffer);
return data;
}
}
Now all is working fine and the exported files are of their own real size. I'm sure the above code can be optimized but it's working good now.
