Forum Ideas, Bugs and Requests

The badge is applicable to any member who releases new code or a new version of code for CE 1.0 through 8.0 during or after December 2022. It can be compiled with C++, VBCE, .net Compact Framework or PocketC.
I am not including recompiles of existing open source code - unless it has been feature enhanced i.e. there is some innovation e.g. it was PPC code made native on the H/PC or it couldn't run on CE 2.0 and was made compatible etc.

We are not a WM / Pocket PC / Palm-sized PC site, so don't count as far as I am concerned.

Possible bug...and big caveat, I could be misunderstanding something here.

Description: SCL does not correctly filter based on compatibility.

To reproduce:
Open SCL, go to browse by category. Set filter for Jornada 720. Click on Communications. Scroll down to Opera Mini. Note the "Compatible" banner. Click in and select compatibility. Note that there is one report for Jornada 720 and that it is "not compatible".

Again, apologies if I'm misunderstanding something here.

Edit: Nevermind, I get it now. 1 person reported it working, 2 reported it not working.

In the list of compatible devices, click on Jornada 720. It will show you how may 'votes' have been made. There have actually been 3 votes, 1 success and 2 failings. It is drawing the inference from that.

It is the downside of crowd sourced data. It's why we need more people to submit ratings and compatibility data. The bigger the data set is, the better analytics we can garner from it. So please do take the time to vote for things!

Understood, will do.

Is it possible to link directly to a particular post? If not, might I suggest adding that as a feature?

There is an underlying linking system a la:
https://www.hpcfactor.com/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=20828&po...
I just don't necessarily now the exact url schema to recreate

Cool, good to know. So, dumb question, how do you get the link to a particular post in the first place? Like, how did you get that link you posted there?

I don’t know. I played with the search function for something randomly different.

Oh ok got it. Thanks

I'm not really sure what my suggestion is exactly, but I was trying to find this article:

ActiveSync over a LAN

and started by searching the CESD for "activesync ethernet" which did not return any results. A google site search for the same keywords produced this article as the top hit. I guess I would suggest...adding "ethernet" to the keywords or title or something? I don't know if that even makes sense, just wanted to bring it up and let you decide if any action was warranted.

I've added it as a tag, but I'm not going to change the title as LAN covers wired and wireless, Ethernet does not.

Sounds good, thanks

Hm. Still not showing up. Now that I try it, "activesync LAN" doesn't bring it up either:

search for activesync LAN

Not a forum bug, but a misspelling in Hardware Devices & Specifications.

After selecting a device,

there is a misspelling at:
"Search hpcBay on the HPC:Facctor Community Forums for this H/PC"
it should be
"Search hpcBay on the HPC:Factor Community Forums for this H/PC"

at "Buying Resources"

Thanks, I'll try and remember to fix it tomorrow
