It is possible to send/receive data via Serial/USB port using a Web Service?

Best Regards,

Tony Crespo
 
That depends what's running on top of the physical layer connection you
describe. If it's just plugged in, then of course not. If there's
ActiveSync involved, AS provides a network-like transport layer over which
you should be able to access a Web service.

Thanks Paul,
but there isnt some example of how do we can incorporate a Proxy Connection
in my .NET CF code to transmit data via Cradle based-on Web Service?...
Similar as the Relay Agent for SQL CE 2.0 does it (object
SqlCeReplication.InternetProxyServer) ...
 
No, you need to have network stack layers on top of the connection. You
could build one yourself, but it's not just going to fall out of 'here's a
serial port, let me access the network'!

What you asked was "Can I send/receive data via Serial/USB." What you meant
was can I use a web service over an ActiveSync passthrough. Yes, you can. In
fact the moment you connect to activesync all "internet" (as opposite to
"work") connections will be routed via AS passthrough. This is controlled in
the AS options dialog on the desktop where you can select whether AS
passthrough is connected to "Internet" or "work"
 
Thanks Alex and Paul, you are rigth...
