AutoHotkey Community

Thx for the quick reply.


You mean I should copy the content to the autohotkeyce.ahk?



The error stays persistent
Info: I am running WM 6 Prof.
Is there a chance to get it running another way?

Hi,


You do not need to copy any content, just download, extract the files, copy them to the device and run the exe.
I can't test WM 6 prof because I do not own such a device and I haven't googled for an emulator. It's running on WM 5 so it should run on v6, too.
Please send me a pm with the problems

Hi Micha,
After doing some research, I found out that the Windows CE 5.0 SDK (what you're using, I think) also works with the SP4 of Microsoft's eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 program, all freely available, so after all I might be able to help you

EDIT: I tried to install it but it didn't work
EDIT2: I'm now downloading the *real* Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK, and try if I can hack it to work under my VC++ 2008 Express...

EDIT3: I'm going to log what I'm doing here.

1. I've succesfully extracted all files from the installer. I'm now attempting to figure out where to put them.

I'm using a PPC program called OziCE.
I figured out by trail and error the position of some file items.

How can I get the screen position of the Ok button on some screen of that application?

I searched for a the spy, but could not find it. If says there is no AU3_Spy.exe on the storagecard.

Please help.

Perhaps there is a little script to retrieve a position or to show the controls on the current screen.

Hi dhmc,
the ahk_spy is not working because it's a win32 exe and does not run with wince.
You can search the forum for a spy script.
I have tried http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtop ... ht=win+spy
but it's not working yet.
At this stage of the project I don't have a ready solution for you
Sorry
Micha

Hi fincs,
good luck. Every help is welcome!

We are now 3 people who are working at that project. I'm creating a todo-list for us at the weekend to prevent that 2 people are working on the same problem.

Hi,

I did something similar recently and I did it like this...

I use http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=74473fd6-1dcc-47aa-ab28-6a2b006edfe9&displaylang=en (and sometimes http://www.mymobiler.com - but this only works with WM5/6) to get the view on my desktop.

then I use autoit3 window spy to get the xy of the active window. this is then offset by about 7 pixels accross & 45 down (using ActiveSync Remote Display) which is done for me by spreadsheet where I enter my xy coords.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I have evc4, it would be nice to have it on that too.

My HP IPAQ RX5940 Travel Companion had two keys on the front: Start menu button and Ok button. These are hardware buttons.
The IPAQ has Windows Mobile 5.

These are two buttons one can push with the hand. The Start menu button has the Windows logo and the Ok button has a "x" painted above it.

I want to assign a Autohotkey script to one of these buttons.

I tried the #:: and *#:: but in both cases the Windows Start menu is displayed and the script is not run. I see that the script is waiting because of the green H on my PPC desktop

Questions:
1) Which command should I give to get the Autohotkey respond to one of these keys?
2) Is there a way to find out which keys they are assigned to?

LWin:: does the trick.

I first tried #:: and this doesn't work.

Hi dhmc,

I had a quick look at this and if you get this app on your device, then note down the code/codes (note it might be a combo of button actions triggered on a key)
http://www.pocketdos.com/Misc/ShowKeyCodes.zip

Then compare these values with what is in winuser.h and create you hotkey script line using the code/codes (so for 0x84 in the ShowKeyCodes, you are looking at VK_F21 in winuser.h and that means using the following in the script 'F21::MsgBox,F21')

Hope this helps,

Barry

I think I could program some sort of embedded filesystem in the EXE file for compiled scripts... I'm not sure though, I'll try, the problem is that I've not yet managed to get a working WinCE development environment on my computer

Hi Micha,

Thank for this program to unleash the power of pocket pc. But I found that the last few versions seem to break the call of WinGetClass that was working on version 21.

Can you have a look at that? Many thanks

New version available.
Created html page (better to maintain)
Created an installer
If you download the source you can build win32 and pocketpc versions. So the original code is at least not compleatly ruined.

Hi fincs,
good luck to get this working in your development studio. Barry created a solution file for visual studio 2005. If you can manage to make this run on your compiler I can put the needed project files in the source code package. But I can only maintain the vstudio 2008 files.
I have changed a lot of things recently. If I'm changing settings in the future I will leave a note so you can maintain your files.

compiled scripts: Really cool if you can do that. To stay as close to Chris sources as possible I would prefer to use a class with the functions of the file exearc_read.h.

Thanks
Ciao
