XDA and SMS programming

Hello,
I'm new in the wonderful world of XDA and Pocket PC 2002, and I would like to use SMS in a new application. Do you know how I could see example of source code using SMS API? Or do you have such example to help me?
Thanx
Gizmo

Precision
I forget something important : I'm using eMbedded Visual C++ 3.0!!
Thanx

All you have to do is include SMS.H in your code and linkt to SMS.LIB, see online documentation for more details. Below a simple function which takes a phone number in international format (+491715555555) and the message as parameters ...
Code:
BOOL SendSMS(LPCTSTR pszNumber, LPCTSTR pszMessage)
{
SMS_HANDLE hSMS;
HANDLE hGlobalReadSMSEvent;
HRESULT hResult;
hResult= SmsOpen(SMS_MSGTYPE_TEXT, SMS_MODE_SEND, &hSMS, &hGlobalReadSMSEvent);
if(hResult != S_OK)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("Couldn't open the SMS function"));
return FALSE;
}
SMS_ADDRESS smsaDestinationAddress;
smsaDestinationAddress.smsatAddressType= SMSAT_INTERNATIONAL;
wcscpy(smsaDestinationAddress.ptsAddress, pszNumber);
TEXT_PROVIDER_SPECIFIC_DATA tpsd;
tpsd.dwMessageOptions = PS_MESSAGE_OPTION_NONE;
tpsd.psMessageClass = PS_MESSAGE_CLASS3;
tpsd.psReplaceOption = PSRO_NONE;
hResult= SmsSendMessage(hSMS, NULL, &smsaDestinationAddress, NULL, (BYTE*)pszMessage,
wcslen(pszMessage)*sizeof(WCHAR), (BYTE*)(&tpsd), sizeof(tpsd), SMSDE_OPTIMAL, SMS_OPTION_DELIVERY_NONE, NULL);
if(hResult != S_OK)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("Couldn't send the SMS"));
return FALSE;
}
hResult = SmsClose(hSMS);
if(hResult != S_OK)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("Couldn't close the SMS function"));
return FALSE;
}
AfxMessageBox (_T("SMS has been send"));
return TRUE;
}

Thanx
Thanx! Thanx!
I made a big mistake : I forgot to link the SMS.LIB....
I'm a beginner!! (and I'm French : I'm sorry for the bad english language!)
Have a great week!
Gizmo

Hello,
Does anybody has a code example for receiving SMS messages?
I've trying to do so for two weeks, and I'm completely lost.
I've read in this site it can't be done with SmsReadMessage or SimReadMessage. Is it correct? What have I to do, using RIL? Or can I use POOM?
Any help would be very appreciated.

Have you seen tstril? It shows a good way of handling incoming SMSs.
It's here http://xda-developers.com/RIL/

Yes, I've took a look at tstrill. But this example only shows notifications on what's happening on the SMS channels. It has't any reference to the RIL_ReadMsg.
I've searched on the patent documentation, and I have found this help on the RIL_ReadMsg function:
HRESULT RIL_ReadMsg(HRIL hRil, DWORD dwIndex)
Reads a message from the current storage Location
Parameters:
hRil: handle to RIL instance returned by RIL_Initialize
dwIndex:
index of the message to be read
Comments:
Asynchronous. lpData points to an RILMESSAGEINFO structure
My question is: How do I access to lpData?
What I want to do is a function on a DLL like this (in pseudo-code):
BOOL WINAPI ReadSMSMessage(int numMens, LPTSTR Message){
RIL_Initialize
RIL_ReadMessage
RIL_DeInitialize
}
But, what I have to do to get access to "lpData"?
Thanks,
APallares

SMS.LIB
Have the sms.lib now. Normaly it's delivered with dthe EVC - but the 2 Versions I've got doesn't have it. Get them now by eMail
Maybee, this is the super-beginner-question - sorry
I'm searching for the SMS.lib and SMS.h . Working with MS EVC++ 3.0.
Every time, if I try to compile, I get the message, that the files couldn't been found.
Thougt to get them from the internet - but found them nowhere.
I'm happy about every tip (excluding "you're stupid" ;o)
Greetings from hannovre,

Look in ProgramFiles / Windows CE Tools / WCE420 / PocketPC2002 / LIB / Armv4 / all your libraries should be stored there ... in ur code FILE VIEW , Source Files, right click and select add Files to Folder and add your lib
else just #inclde "<the full lib path>"

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MAPI
add Value Name = PropertyPath
Value Data = \SD Card\outlook Mail
for attachments:
Key Name = \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MAPI
add Value Name = AttachPath
Value Data = \SD Card\Outlook Mail\Attachments

What I do is:
In messaging select your email account.
then 'Menu', 'Tools', 'Options'
In the new window select 'Storage' (bottom right tab)
Select storage card tick box.
This works for me with AOL (IMAP4) and POP3 accounts but haven't tried for Outlook directly.

Here's a copy of what i posted in the wm6 subforum quite some time ago.
Thanks to all the great people who made this possible No problems so far.
A little note. For those who want to move the Mail Folders and Relative Attachments to the Storage Card, the Reg Key has changed (no... really ).
it is now to be found in HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings.
Example screen here (this settings works for me).

Can't install it...need a newer version of .NET Compact Framework...I'll download v2.0 and give it another try.

Great app
Can you please add the functionality of being able to specify a directory and install all of the CABs contained within it?
Code:
public void ProcessCABsDir(string sourcedir)
{
// Install CAB's
try
{
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(sourcedir);
foreach (FileInfo files in dir.GetFiles("*.CAB"))
{
Process inst = Process.Start(sourcedir + "\\" + files.Name, "");
inst.WaitForExit();
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show(
"Some files were not installed",
"Error:",
MessageBoxButtons.OK,
MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation,
MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1
);
}
//End of CAB's
}
You could then place this in the ExtROM and get to execute on hardreset.
Happy to work with you on this one.

That is an excellent idea and I'm certainly planning to implement that in the near future!

Sorry, you're gonna have to provide a link, this noob can't find anything in the wiki about a 802.11g router anything for the Hermes, there is ONE link to wifi from the hermes wiki and it talks about what it is... Nothing more.
In the meantime, release HTCustom 1.1...

Good work
Now how about making it part of the ExtROM of a ROM the the app get launched follwoing a hardreset?
The same idea as the autorun.exe HTC provide in all operator devices?

May I know whether this application requires .Net CF 2 to run? Don't wish to install it on my precious main memory..

It does...

I could, but don't most users like to customize when they are ready? Maybe just a popup that explains how it works so they know and can launch it when ready?

Good Works
Why not to integrate into this tweaker, the possibility of closing definitively the programs with the touch OK? It allows among others to use a TyTN with only touches and keyboard. Today, the touch OK reduces them
At the moment I found only another tweaker which makes it (PQzII), but that would be practical to use only one

Home screen direct link (TaskMgr) unremovable

My current problem is that the TaskMgr.exe disappears from the start menu, after a soft reset. Is there a reason/fix for this?
The other problem caused by this is, that my shortcut in the home screen becomes a dead link and is not removable. If I go to "menu->remove direct link->mark the task manager shortcut->finish" it simply stays there.
Even if I copy the taskmgr.exe to the start menu and the link is working again it wont be removable.
Is this a known issue and what can I do? Any help is much appreciated.
The whole thing looks like this:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Try
Go to:
Registry Key:
HKLM/Software/Htc/Manila/Home/11
(If I counted correctly, this is the 12th item, and numbering begins with 0)
There should be some Values specifying the IconPath
and ProgramPath
They usually point to some *.lnk file
See if this file exists,
and if the Lnk file exists, see if the program it points to also exists.
(I dont remember how to check where a .LNK file point too,
maybe Edit would do)
Edit:
Oh, Yes, see if the Value
IsSet (under the same key) is set to 1.

Thanks very much,
editing programm path and link path did the trick that now the Icon is back there and the link works even after a soft reset.
Though I still cant delete the link from the home screeen. There is no error message or anything. The Icon just stays there after clicking "Finish" to delete it.
EDIT: IsSet is set to 1.

Well . . .

I had a problem deleting element after playing a bit with the registry, and leaving an item all set, but with "IsSet" set to 0.
In that case - everything showed, but I could not delete the element.
(There is another value there - I think "IsExist"
maybe that has something to do with it as well,
or maybe - just play a bit with the other values in theis key, and compare them to values in keys (like 0,1,2 . . .), and see if something changed
Or -
As some say
If it works (for your needs) - dont touch it)

What files can be transferred?

None because those files are not exposed (other partition?)

No, only things exposed by the phone like photos and videos.
