My application can only work using a certain GPRS wap connection. 

So if the connection doesnt exist on the user handset, I need to know How can I configure it programatically from the application.

ex: by supplying (accesspoint name, proxy Ip, Port, etc ...)

Can the "ConnectionManager" class do this?

If not, Is there any other way to do so?

Thanks

The Connection Manager API (and consequently the ConnectionManager class) does not provide any functionality for creating new connection definitions (destinations, in ConnMgr terminology). This is handled by the Remote Access Service (RAS) API and as such, our RAS Library will be useful. 

I tried to use the demo application associated with the RAS Library to create a new connection on my handset but there are some missing paramters.

The question is can I automate the following process using the RAS Library ??

Manual Process:

Go to: Settings > Connections >Advanced >  Select Networks

    In the Network Management Screen

• General Tab       
• Enter a Name for the settings : "wapconnectionname"·
• Modem Tab
• Press New
• Enter a name for the  connection: "wapconnectionname"
• Select a modem: Select modem Cellular Line (GPRS).
• Press Next.
• Enter access point name: "accesspointname"
• Press Next
• Press Finish·
• Proxy Settings tab
• Select (check) "This network connects to the internet"
• Select (check) "This network uses proxy server to connect to the           internet".
• Enter Proxy Server: IP

 

• Press Advanced

            Add the following settings:

• HTTP  Server    :  IP       Port:   PORT
• WAP Server      : IP        Port:   PORT
• Socks Server    : IP        Port:   PORT

 

The parameters needed to create the connection are those marked BOLD

If this is not possible using the RAS Library, How can i do it? 

 I will appreciate any help.

 

To make the previous question shorter.

Can I configure the HTTP, WAP. Socks servers listed below using the RAS Library, plus providing the accesspointname and the Proxy IP

• HTTP  Server    :  IP       Port:   PORT
• WAP Server      : IP        Port:   PORT
• Socks Server    : IP        Port:   PORT

Thanks

 With the current version of the RAS Library, the answer is no. We're looking to add this in the next version.

Hi,

 

Regarding to this library, it is still not working under x86 Windows CE platforms? 

Thanks

I'm sorry. Could you elaborate -- are you asking a question or making a statement?

 Sorry,

 

i'm asking a question. In fact i cannot run your libraries in Windows CE 5.0 under x86 platforms. This GPRS library is already available for this kind of platforms???

 

Thanks 

It's not a GPRS library; it's a Remote Access Service (RAS) library and is supported under Windows CE 5.0.

What exactly is the problem you are facing? The more detail you give, the better enabled we will be to help.

And about the accesspoint name, in the modem tab?

Can I set this with the RAS Library?

Thanks,
Eduardo
