Device connectivity

There's also a real problem with this new dll. As soon as I put a KListControl on a form, I get a "The device is not ready" when I try to run the app in the emulator (tried WM6.5 Professional WVGA and WM6.1.4 Professional 480x800).

I can deploy *once* to a real device but after that I get a "An operation was attempted on something that was not a socket."

Not a problem with the previous version and if I start a new project without referencing the dll, deployment to everything is working as expected again...

I have the same issue, I use itstools to delete the ManilaDotNetSDK.dll prior to each deploy.

Quick FIX please

Hi MichyPrima,

is it possible to get a quick fix for the ManilaMessageBoxHelper-Class.

I want to use the new version 3.0 in my projects but without ManilaMessageBoxHelper it is really annoying.

greetz VPAFan

btw. did you get my donation?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
Hi

I'll try to fix it soon...

btw...when you did so?

Recently I didn't received any donation...:confused:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] rzv25:
Too bad

I was expecting an answer for my proposal, even though it's a negative one as long as you have a reason. But I see that you only reply to the posts that are convenient for you. Too bad, @michyprima.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] alto:
Something that bother me with this SDK is the missing sender object in some of the events such as ManilaPanelOnOffItem StatusChanged.

the reason I need it is for creating dynamiclly items in the KListControl and use only one handler to all of the items and onClick to determine witch one was selected.

If there other option to get it it will really help.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] boogey:
Hey maxpg, any chance you can release the code for this? :)

Open Source

I've seen number of suggestions in this thread to make this library open source. I can appreciate that you have put in a lot of hard work michyprima, so I'd like to make a suggestion.

I have started working with this library, but I think there are too many things currently missing (events etc) for it to be used for a professional application (which is why I haven't donated yet).

Who would be up for pooling some funds to encourage michy to make it open source? I would throw in £100. How much will it take michy? :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] djingonthenet:
Is this fully functioning withvb.net? I've been looking at how to return the index or idealy the contol item of the klistcontrol. I can add items to the list no problem but cannot find a way of returning what was clicked. Also the msgbox just leaves the screen blank and freezes the program. Heres a test code to produce a messagebox, but nothing happens - the C# demo code works fine but this command stalls in vb :(

Private Sub ManilaButton1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ManilaButton1.Click

ManMsgBox("Title Here", "Clcik OK to continue", "OK")

End Sub

Private Function ManMsgBox(ByVal strTitle As String, ByVal strPrompt As String, ByVal strLButton As String, Optional ByVal strRButton As String = "") As MichyPrima.ManilaDotNetSDK.ManilaMessageBoxHelper.Result

If strRButton <> "" Then

Return MichyPrima.ManilaDotNetSDK.ManilaMessageBoxHelper.MessageBoxShow(strTitle, strPrompt, strLButton, strRButton)

Else

Return MichyPrima.ManilaDotNetSDK.ManilaMessageBoxHelper.MessageBoxShow(strTitle, strPrompt, strLButton)

End If

End Function
[Windows Mobile Software Development] VPAFan:
Hi djingonthenet,

your code seems to be ok. I think you are using the version 3.0 of ManilaDotNetSDK. This version has an issue with the ManilaMessageBoxHelper-Class -> it freezes. So try using the version 2.1 from the demo code.

I need to read a dynamic list of values from registry / file and for each create ManilaOnOffSwitch control, since its dynamic I cant create StatusChanged function for each control, but use the same handler function for all objects.

Is there a way to know with ManilaOnOffSwitch sent the event? since there is no sender parameter it a problem.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] VPAFan:
Hi mamirix,

hope this helps you.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] mkbm:
Hi,

I had the same problem. In my app I have to load some ManillaOnOffPanelItems dynamic.

You only have to create a new class and then define the StatusChanged of the item to this class with the current Item as argument. Then you redefine the right Eventhandler in the new class.

Here is a small example how I am using it with the ManilaPanelOnOffItems.

First the definition of the item. This is done in a while loop because I am loading the items dynamic. So I only have to define one Item:

...
// Normally we are using this way
thisitem.StatusChanged += new ManilaPanelOnOffItem.StatusChangedEventHandler(item_Changed);
// This is with my new Class and the current item as argument.
thisitem.StatusChanged += new myNewClass().DoEvent(thisitem);
...

Now this is my new Class. Here you ave the Sender and can do everything you want.

class myNewClass
{

ManilaPanelOnOffItem locItem;

public myNewClass()
{
}

void item_Changed(ManilaOnOffSwitch.Status Sender)
{

MessageBox.Show(locItem.MainText);
MessageBox.Show(locItem.YIndex);
}

public ManilaPanelOnOffItem.StatusChangedEventHandler DoEvent(ManilaPanelOnOffItem cItem)
{
locItem= cItem;
cItem.StatusChanged += new ManilaPanelOnOffItem.StatusChangedEventHandler(item_Changed);
return null;
}

}

Hope this will help you with your problem.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] wesch00:
As I wrote some postings earlier here, the manila framework intoduced here is a great thing. But also some other mentioned, we should combine our forces to implement more features.+

Since I missed a lot of stuff in the framework, I decided to write a new one. Where am I now. First I took the KListControl as a starting point. It supports also horizontal scrolling. I changed it to move the controls also outside of the screen scope like manila does.

Then I thought it would be nice to have design time support while putting the items into the KListControl. This works, but not perfect, having problems with screen size during design time. But I'm able to drag items from the toolbar into the KListControl and have them in the designer. It currently only works for vertical scrolling.

Thenafter I needed several items, Textbox and Comboboxes, which can be scrolled. They are available.

Currently I'm working on a DateTimeItem. It seemed to me I have to write it new from scratch, cannot use the one allready in manila. This is a lot of work. That's why I post here. I'm searching for some people helping me.

The stuff I wrote somehow works, but it is far from any serious framework, i.e. missing controls like OnOffSwitches (I didn't need them yet) and also the layout is not really manila stile. And at least, it works currently only on WVGA screen, since I've hadn't the time to paint the bitmaps for other screens.

So, if someone wants to participate, let me know.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] TeDeV:
nicely done.

i don't want to sound bad, but don't forget the manilla tabs too :D

i just tested it. some things i found ....

1) Manilla Header doesn't have font property (important)

2) the list is very confusing, not easy to manage

3) the On - Off button, doesn't have good text quality

4) when u drop the on off box and the checkbox to the form, in the design form, they look too big, and they can't be resized. (if u run the project they look ok, but still u can't resize them)

haven't tested the progress bar, but i guess it should be ok.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] elmalote:
Awesome!!!!

But why doesn't my text get shown in the button instead of the text "Button" :D

Ups never mind, didn't see the ButtonText Property...

But why doesn't text on CheckBox and ManilaOffOn button work :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
1) This is intentional. manila screen uses predefined font and since the style is manila why change it?

2) what is confusing for you?

3) Ill look to it

4) this is a visual studio problem. it passes your monitor resolution to my lib and not the real wm sdk size (320x240). You can avoid this using vga form size (640x480). Their size can't be changed btw cause images are fixed and in other sizes they looks ugly

yep, I made a stupid thing...I changed it back to Text property ;)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TeDeV:
about 1)

a programmer needs to have access to everything. sometimes it is important to have big letters and colorised so users can actually see it (trust me, i see a lot of client's "problems" every day), and some times some smaller size letters to fit a bigger text or make it look more nicely done.

if it doesn't take u too much time to implement it, i would be thankful.

about the list, i need to work a bit more on it, to make sure that it is not me.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
ok, no problem, i'll expose a property for font overriding ;)

[Windows Mobile Software Development] n3tfusion:
Hello,

Thanks for your SDK, it's a great work!

I have a dumb question,

in your listview, how can i add a item with 2 lines and 2 colums ?

I'm currently adding a manillaPanelItem and using primary and secondary text, but i want to have on each side of the list 2 text

like this:

item1-left 1 (------------------) right 1

item1-left 2 (------------------) right 2

Is it possible with your control ?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] GeirFrimann:
4) Isn't is because your usercontrol is based on 128dpi and not 96dpi??

I experianced the same behavior. My VS project forms are 320x240. In design mode your controls are oversized, but when debugging whit a 640x480 or 800x480 they looks OK..
[Windows Mobile Software Development] GeirFrimann:
This looks really good, but from a developers point of view, I'll rather see more touch friendly usercontrols, like the one in Manila 2.5 when creating a new appointment and setting start time. Beatiful, and very touch friendly.

I guess that kind of controls will give you more donation$ ;-)

Keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
Just create a new item and implement IKListItem interface. That way you can paint everything you want in the item bounds.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
v2.0 is available on first post with new commented sample project
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TeDeV:
1)i can't see the how the controls look when i drop them in my form. i see a rectangle

which says MichyPrima.ManilaDotNetSDK.ManillaTextBox, and so on.

2) even manila header when i drop it inside my form, it doesn't dock to the top, it says none, but if i run the project then it docks to the top. and also it doesn't have the font property.

3)about the textbox, it shows the pink color (transparent propably) to the 4 corners. and if i make it smaller, i am losing the left and right border. if i make the font smaller, the height of the textbox doesn't get smaller.

4)the trackbar also has the pink transparent color

5) are u thinking of including an image property to the button?

6) basically all the controls have a resize problem, (except the button) . their size is specific (i can guess why).

7) and a couple of addisions u might think of including are numericbox (a textbox with 2 buttons up and down), and a combobox

8) as for the messagebox, i believe its ok, but personally i would like to have the main text a bit lower. it is almost touching the header.

that's it for now :D, soz for mentioning 8 negatives :)

keep up the good work.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] michyprima:
1) normal, since VS can't render them, i disabled in-ide rendering

2) this is cause the point 1

3-4) lol, I forgot something seems...i'll fix that

5) maybe i will :)

6) their size is fixed..and why i already explained here

7) maybe i will too :D

Anyone tried fixed list?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TeDeV:
i didn't get the 1)

what do u mean it can't render them. how is it possible to view them in runtime, but not in design mode? i could see them in version 1. (i don't want to sound bad again, but for sure, no one can work without watching how the form looks, and don't forget that vs takes too much time, to run a new compile project on the pda. which means that debuggin will take ages. plzzzzz fix that!) :D

(don't mean to insult ur work, i am saying this because my message might sound bad :) peace )

as for 2) give to the control the default dock Top, so it will look fine
[Windows Mobile Software Development] btxakita:
