[Terry Cheng]

Dear all,
Hello guys, I am just start writing an PPC application which need to
call PocketIE and pass a URL parameter then the Pocket IE will start up and
visit the passed URL?


Thanks in advance!

You can do this by utilizing the "Process" class in the OpenNETCF SDF:
OpenNETCF.Diagnostics.Process.Start("iexplore.exe", http://opennetcf.org)

You can get the SDF here:

Yes. The code that I posted, when called, will start the browser on the PPC
and pass it the URL.

CreateProcess("iexplore.exe", "http://www.myurl.com", NULL, NULL, FALSE, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)

You have to declare API functon CreateProcess befor

[DllImport("CoreDll.DLL", SetLastError=true)
private extern stati
int CreateProcess( String imageName
String cmdLine
IntPtr lpProcessAttributes
IntPtr lpThreadAttributes
Int32 boolInheritHandles
Int32 dwCreationFlags
IntPtr lpEnvironment
IntPtr lpszCurrentDir
byte [] si
ProcessInfo pi );
