I am developing application in .NET CF 2.0 + C#.

In the development environmnet, we have 4 smart devices. Data is coming
through Webservice. What I want to do is...I want to download the data from
web service and generate the XML File. Upto this it is all OK.

Now, I don't want to download the data in another 3 devices from web
service, but want to import the XML file generated from the web service.
That is Device to Device communication. My devices has no Infrared nor
Bluetooth, but yes they have Vireless LAN.

Target Device is :: Symbol PPT 8846

Is this possible to import the files?


Thank you in advance
 
Maybe. Since you have wireless networking, can we assume that the devices
are on the same subnet? Or are on subnets which are accessible to one
another? If so, some sort of network communication is possible. The ways
that come to mind to share files, though, may not exist on the target
device, as they are optional for device OEMs: network file sharing, FTP
server. If neither of those is on your device, you'll have to decide how to
get the file. You could write a socket server program on the device with
the file and have the others connect to it and use some custom protocol that
you invent to get the file data from it.
