Paolo's Notes

BA by day, sleepy coder by night...

PicBlog update

(and test for NewsGator posting :)

While waiting for some feedback, last night I quickly started a PocketPC version of PicBlog. Let me just say that VS.NET 2003 is absolutely fabolous for the ability to target both Windows and PocketPC applications at the same time. I'm happily sharing code between the two version, with little problems (for example, how do I create User Controls on the device?)

It's not really easy to create user controls for the device, because the Control library is not supported. I wrote a small article on how you can still do it:

It looks pretty cool. I just need to find a place to store my pics on, to test it.

In addition to the Jonne Kats article (and the Chris Kinsman article it references), there is also one by Larry Roof at <A HREF="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnroad/html/road11272002.asp>http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnroad/html/road11272002.asp</A>.

ooooohhhhh. this would be fantastic. especially for new ppc devices like the samsung i700, that has both cellular and a camera builtin. since you're using vs.net would you consider a smartphone version as well?

i actually help out msft's windows mobile division, and i'm pretty excited by this. i hope you decide to continue with this line of development.
