Hi,
just wondering whether anybody has done programming with the XDA, that required interface to the built in camera? I can't find any API or SDK. Does anybody know the hardware vendor's website.
Thanks a lot
Does anyone know whether the camera sdk or api for XdaII is available for development? If so, where can I get it?
I searched several forum and saw some threads that say that the sdk is unavailable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11519
or use the search in the hacking and what ever forum
search for camera AND api
or camera AND sdk
I am trying to write small apps for my Hermes.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any device specific APIs such as Camera API for HTC.
Where can I find such APIs ?
Also, if it is possible to access camera without any device specific API , please point me to the correct address.
When I make a search with keywords API and SDK on this forum , I can't get any results because of the 3 character keyword limitation.
You can use standard WM 5.0 + function:
SHCameraCapture from AYGSHELL.DLL

thanks. I couldn't understand how to use that.
I currently use WM6 SDK.
for camera, do I have to download WM5 SDK in addition ?
Also, how do I use it with C# ?
any idea ?
Hi, where can i find documentation about the HTCAPI library?. I have .net cf sensor samples using this api, but, I don't know if these samples use the 100% of the API.
Thanks.
Hi first I must apologize for posting here I know I should post in the questions and answers section, I have already done this twice with two similar posts but I have not received a reply I beleive because the expert programmers are less likely to look there to help people as most questions are about useing software not developing it. anyway here is what i posting before I really hope someone can help me...
Hello everyone I was wondering if anyone could answer this question for me.
I am creating a wm app and for part of it i want some information from googlemaps, the maps api is in java and i was thinking of ways to incorperate this into my app. Can i create a java program to get data from google and have my c# program run the java program and get info from it? I could write my program totally in java but i don't like the way i have to first start the vm and launch my program from that is there a way to automate this? also I need quite a lot of information from the phone so using c# will make getting this info easier.
or are there any other ways i might be able to get the info I want, I don't really know anything about applets but could they somehow be used?
oh btw the specific data i want is distance between to map locations (via googles route not direct)
many thanks i hope someone can help
I apologize again for posting in here but this app is for a final year project and I need to know if im barking up the wrong tree as soon as possible.
I might be wrong here, but to the best of my knowledge, Google Maps API is actually JavaScript API, not Java. If you found Java API, it's most likely a wrapper. And if it exists, I'm sure C# wrapper should exist as well. You might want to take a look at this. I know it's not exactly what you are looking for, but it might be helpful to some degree. Also, one other thing I can suggest, is to look at Virtual Earth API. I'm almost 100% positive, that they do have a C# implementation of the API.
Hi hobbbbit thanks so much for your reply, so googlemaps api is javascript , I have never used javascript before and saw that the api used objects methods and looked like java so i just assumed thats what it was. If there isn't a wrapper for c# do you (or anyone) know of a way of using the api to obtain one of the objects and use it in c#?
I would use virtual earth but unless I am totally wrong here I thought to use it you needed a licence which costs around $8000 which I don't want to pay for. Even with google if I wanted to release the app i think I would have to pay although I have contacted them and they say I can develop my app using the free api.
**EDIT**
Ok well I took another look at virtual earth, I really am a complete idiot. I signed up for a FREE developers account so hopefully everything I need I can get from there.
again thanks for your advice if you hadent posted I would probably still be trying different ways to hack google earth to work in my wm app.
On codeplex is a windows forms project that uses googlemaps api as wel as a few others. Im pretty sure you can get an idea of how to go about this from there

Superb this was just the thing I was looking for I will be sure to study this code closely. Thanks so much for the information.
