Writing a Today Plugin

I am trying to write a today plugin. I've used most of the same code from the sample but it doesn't work. The plugin displays for a few seconds then disappears.
Code:
// HelloToday2.cpp : Defines the entry point for the DLL application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "todaycmn.h"
#define HELLOTODAY TEXT("HelloToday")
HINSTANCE hInst;
//HWND hWnd;
void OnPaint(HWND);
BOOL OnQueryRefreshCache(HWND, TODAYLISTITEM*);
BOOL APIENTRY DllMain( HANDLE hModule,
DWORD ul_reason_for_call,
LPVOID lpReserved
)
{
switch (ul_reason_for_call)
{
case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
{
hInst = (HINSTANCE)hModule;
//RegisterClass(hInst);
break;
}
case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
{
UnregisterClass(HELLOTODAY, hInst);
break;
}
}
return TRUE;
}

case WM_TODAYCUSTOM_QUERYREFRESHCACHE:

}
return 0;
}

{

Device Power Management in WM

Dear сolleagues and development guru!
I have some stopper in Power Management. I hope somebody will help me to understand.
Technologies: C#, .NET 3.5
The main point of application:
Make beep periodically.
Main problem is:
When PocketPC in active mode application running correct, but when PocketPC went to sleep mode it does not make a beep. As I understood speaker is turned off in sleep mode (like all other devices in PocketPC).
Question:
How can I turn on speaker in sleep mode?
Simply what I need is turn on speaker, make beep and back speaker to previous mode without wake up all device.
I tried code like this:
Code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Media;
using System.Threading;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace TestProject
{
static class Program
{
public const int POWER_NAME = 0x00000001;
public enum DevicePowerState : int
{
Unspecified = -1,
D0 = 0,
D1,
D2,
D3,
D4,
}
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern int SetDevicePower(
string pvDevice,
int dwDeviceFlags,
DevicePowerState DeviceState
);
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern IntPtr SetPowerRequirement(
string device,
DevicePowerState state,
uint deviceFlags,
IntPtr systemState,
ulong stateFlags
);
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern int ReleasePowerRequirement(IntPtr handle);
[MTAThread]
static void Main()
{
MessageBox.Show("Application is running...", "Confirmation", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Asterisk,MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);
string deviceName = "WAV1:"; // speaker
for (; ; )
{
// set D0 power value
IntPtr handle = SetPowerRequirement(deviceName, DevicePowerState.D0, 1, IntPtr.Zero, 0);
// make a beep
SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
// set default power value
ReleasePowerRequirement(handle);
Thread.Sleep(10000);
}
}
}
}
And like this:
Code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Media;
using System.Threading;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace TestProject
{
static class Program
{
public const int POWER_NAME = 0x00000001;
public enum DevicePowerState : int
{
Unspecified = -1,
D0 = 0,
D1,
D2,
D3,
D4,
}
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern int SetDevicePower(
string pvDevice,
int dwDeviceFlags,
DevicePowerState DeviceState
);
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern IntPtr SetPowerRequirement(
string device,
DevicePowerState state,
uint deviceFlags,
IntPtr systemState,
ulong stateFlags
);
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern int ReleasePowerRequirement(IntPtr handle);
[MTAThread]
static void Main()
{
MessageBox.Show("Application is running...", "Confirmation", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Asterisk,MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);
string deviceName = "WAV1:"; // speaker
int resDevicePowerOn = SetDevicePower(deviceName, POWER_NAME, DevicePowerState.D0);
for (; ; )
{
// make a beep
SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
Thread.Sleep(10000);
}
}
}
}
But any of these codes does not work - there are no beep in sleep mode.

Hi, I just happened to find an article from codeproject.
You may want to take a look at it.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/mobile/WiMoPower1.aspx
I think what you need is cerunappattime.

It seems you are enabling the audio device to run in low-power mode, but you are not actually telling the CPU to keep running ("unattended mode").
Lookup PowerPolicyNotify, specifically PPN_UNATTENDEDMODE.
You may also need to periodically call SHIdleTimerResetEx and/or SystemIdleTimerReset to keep the device active in unattended mode or it will still truely suspend.

Prevent the system enter sleep mode
The system will stop all activitis when the system enter sleep mode.So you must prevent the system enter sleep mode.
The system sleep mode：
on -> unattended -> suspend
You can run：
on -> unattended -> resuming
my code：time up is system on

Turn off GPRS

I'm looking for a way to turn off the data (GRPS)
Search didn't brought me anything usefull, I'm sure there is somwhere the data but can't find it.
I'm especially need it for WM 6.5 (HD2)

Search around for Modaco's NoData program. It's late and I'm too tired to search it up for you right now.

Thanks for the replay but it’s not what I meant, sorry for not be clarify.
I know the NoData app and actually i just finish writing something similar but more user friendly, hope to release it asap (Now I have problem with the icon )
What I’m looking is a way to turn off programmatically the data connection of the device, what the CommManager in the HTC sense do.
I tried to use the RAS api but it didn't work

look for jmlcomm.exe here at xda and use it in your app.simple command line call.and free to use.

Thanks for the idea, I'll try it.
But I prefer to do it directly from my app. without calling external tool.

I found a solution!

HTC Compass

Hello experts,
I am using : vs 2008 – MFC – Smart Device – dlg (Windows Mobile)
I tried to write c++ codes to have access to hardware compass parameters on the bases of sample codes I saw in this forum , but I had no success. My codes are :
.h file
public:
struct compass_data
{
short x;
short y;
short z;
short angle;
short d;
short dummy[10]; //just to make sure nothing get overwritten
};
struct compass
{
compass_data* data;
HANDLE h;
HANDLE service;
int init();
short update();
int deinit();
};
.cpp file
struct Crotate1Dlg::compass cmps;
cmps.init();
for(int iii=0; iii<5; iii++)
{
cmps.update();
char buffer1[65];_itoa_s(myangle, buffer1, 65, 10);//myangle is integer and initializes 9999
SetDlgItemText(IDC_mySTATIC1, (CString)buffer1);
}
cmps.deinit();
}
int Crotate1Dlg::compass::init()
{
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = CreateFile( TEXT( "SEN0:" ), 0, 0, 0, OPEN_EXISTING, 0x80, 0 );
if( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE || Crotate1Dlg::compass::h == 0 )
{
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = 0;
Crotate1Dlg::compass::service = RegisterService( TEXT( "SEN" ), 0, TEXT( "HTCSensorService.dll" ), 1 );
if( Crotate1Dlg::compass::service == 0 )
{
return 0;
}
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = CreateFile( TEXT( "SEN0:" ), 0, 0, 0, OPEN_EXISTING, 0x80, 0 );
if( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE || Crotate1Dlg::compass::h == 0 )
{
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = 0;
return 0;
}
}
if( 0 == DeviceIoControl( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h, DIO_INIT, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ))
{
CloseHandle( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h );
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = 0;
return 0;
}
return true;
}
short Crotate1Dlg::compass::update()
{
if( !Crotate1Dlg::compass::h )
{
return 0;
}
DWORD read = 0;
if( 0 == DeviceIoControl( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h, DIO_READ, 0, 0, Crotate1Dlg::compass::data, 5, &read, 0 ))
{
myangle = (int)Crotate1Dlg::compass::data->angle;
return 0;
}
else
{
return 1;
}
}
int Crotate1Dlg::compass::deinit()
{
if( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h )
{
if( 0 == DeviceIoControl( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h, 0x3000002, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ))
{
CloseHandle( Crotate1Dlg::compass::h );
Crotate1Dlg::compass::h = 0;
return 0;
}
}
return 1;
}
This code compiles fine, deploys on emulator with no error (does not give proper output of course) , but gives error on the device (HTC HT2) . I am sure I am doing something wrong , please correct me.
Thank you in advance.

any screenshots ?
