I have just joined the list due to a lovely HTC Universal popping through my post-box and would like to tinker with the thing without needing to get my hands dirty with C#. I am wondering how easy it is to access phone/PDA features from PythonCE. Did Pythoncom for CE ever make it into a usable state? Is there any way to use .NET from PythonCE? If neither of the above will it be down to raw calling of DLL's? Access to any of the following would be of great interest: contact, calendar, camera, telephony and Activesync. I don't mind a bit of detective work if any of this is feasible. I am just wondering what the possibilities and current state of play is. regards, AndyB -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The Workabout Pro comes in either CE .NET or Mobile 2003 (another name for PPC, added just this year to the Workabout PRO). If it's saying you've got Windows CE .NET 4.20, then I believe you don't have the Mobile 2003 version, and it's likely an OS incompatibility with the version of Python and Tkinter you're trying to use. (Some of the biggest differences between PPC and CE NET are in the shell and graphics handling.) Confirm which version of the Workabout Pro you actually have. If you have Mobile 2003, then you might push back on Psion's customer service because they may have a problem with their implementation. Because it's 3rd party software, they may not be helpful though. If you have the CE .NET version, try using the HPC2000 version of Python CE. That might actually be more compatible than the version you're using. You also might have to see if upgrading to Mobile 2003 from Psion is possible (or practical). Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

My OS version is .NET 4.2, and not Windows Mobile 2003. Since the unit that I currently have is just a demo, I am not going to sweat much over it. I gave quick try to two versions of HPC2000 PythonCE, but one clearly says that Tkinter is not ported, and the other one fails to start. In the mean time I made a not very elegant "patch"- I am reading data using twenty-line snippet of PocketC and puting it into a file.

References: Message-ID: <23586.1131656446@www58.gmx.net> Hi there, PythonCE beginner issue: Does anybody know of of PythonCE compatibility or feature matrix that indicates what runs with PythonCE 2.3.4 on PocketPC 2003 (iPaq) on what doesn't? I guess there isn't... I assume that all libraries that are completely written in Python (2.3.4 or lower) and that depend (import) only other pure Python libraries should run on PythonCE. Unless they use stuff like raw_input() that is (or was) not available for PythonCE. Is this assumption valid? Is there a more efficient to find out, than try & error? (e.g. Import Error: No module named pyexpat). btw: what do you use to make your objects persistent? (only Pickle?)

I'll have a play when I have some time and report back. I can get sufficiently 'Pythonesque' in Javascript to keep my sanity but there is also the possibility of writing some javascript wrappers around to allow PythonCE some COM access.

There's a nice (non-free) program called "SOTI, Pocket Controller" that does this. There's also a free, more basic, Microsoft tool that allows you to control your PocketPC from the desktop.
