Contacting the CE Net Bloggers

The CENet bloggers have received a number of requests for help for various Windows CE issues.  Most of those questions are considerably outside our area of expertise which means that unfortunately that we're not able to help.

We welcome questions and comments on blog posts that we make and also for suggestions regarding future blog posts.  For other technical support issues not relating to areas we've blogged about, your best bet is to check out https://support.microsoft.com/, search the web, or visit one of the CE related newsgroups.  We have a very active newsgroup community which is pretty good at answering questions.

The newsgroups that I (JSpaith) personally follow are:

microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer
microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer.networking
microsoft.public.smartphone.developer
microsoft.public.win32.programmer.wince
microsoft.public.windowsce.app.development
microsoft.public.windowsce.embedded
microsoft.public.windowsce.embedded.vb
microsoft.public.windowsce.embedded.vC
microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder
microsoft.public.windowsce.targeted.device

Added 12/5/05 PM - Please note that when you give us feedback in the blog, it will not display back to you on the web page because we've enabled moderation.  Due to some "quirks" in the blog hosting software, we don't get immediate notification of when someone gives us feedback which is why we may seem slow in responding to it sometimes.  We try to check every few days however.

Added 1/16/06 - If you have a Platform Builder 5.0 license, you get 2 free support requests.  Check out https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?LN=en-us&gprid=3100&x=12&y=15.

  Someone asked a question regarding IOCTL_AG_OPEN_AUDIO and immediately asked a followup since it didn't appear. I deleted the followup, but for some reason our blog software deleted both posts. Whoever posted is going to need to repost please. Thanks. [John Spaith]

  Deepthi - please post this question to a newsgroup, it's easier for other folks in the community to access.  As you can see, your initial msg unfortunately didn't get published because we have to moderate the blog (to prevent SPAM) so newsgroups are much faster option.John

  You're correct, CE doesn't do getenv().  In fact this (along with limited # of processes) is why WinCE Web Server does not do CGI's in the 1st place, but instead relies completely on ISAPI extensions.I'm afraid the best I can do on this one is to have you check out a newsgroup (http://blogs.msdn.com/cenet/archive/2005/12/05/500181.aspx) or probably better yet, talk with Goahead Web Server team about how the intend CE's limitation to be worked around.John
