A threaded form uploader app in C#
Recently I had to do an app that watches a dir for new files and then uploads them to a DocuShare server using http form post.
I was told, that it is very easy to use form post from code and decided to do the app in C#. Unfortunately, it was not that easy to find code that does uploads via form post, especially for Compact Framework (CF). Maybe it is easier in JAVA, but for JAVA I had to install a JAVA VM onto the windows mobile 6.1 device and for CF all runtimes are already on the device. I searched the internet for valuable form post code in C# and found one titled ‘C# is the better JAVA‘.
OK, this code looked good and i tried it within Compact Framework. After changing the functions to ones available in CF, the code runs fine. As you know, CF does not have the same full featured functions as the .Net Framework for PCs.

zDump
Do you like to spy your WinCE device? Try zDump! I used it to find the window classes and styles of iesample.exe to be able to write iLockIE2.
You can use it to inspect windows and there styles and you can CHANGE there styles (ie disable the taskbat window).

In this screen I spyed the X button of iesample.exe.

Nachdem unbekannte Anrufer innerhalb der extensions.conf blockiert sind, habe ich die Asterisk extensions.conf auf der HorstBox Pro DVA-G3342 noch um einige Nummern erweitert.
Leider wurde das Gesetzt zu diesen Werbeanrufen so abgeschwächt, dass man als Verbraucher kaum eine Chance hat, aus den Anruflisten der Werbe-Haie zu entkommen.
Werbeanrufer sind doch sehr hartnäckig und durch das Sperren der Rufnummern werden diese unerwünschten Anrufe blockiert.
Meine neue extensions.conf sieht nun so aus:
