Hi,

The bug reporting/testing/fixing cycle for WinCE has been severely impacted by the ever dwindling number of WinCE users. I therefore ask all interested users to identify themselves so that we are able to communicate more closely in order to test/apply provided patches, especially that what may work for one device and use case might not work somewhere else or even break something else in other use cases.

I might not use it actively anymore and also not for work, but I still have three Windows Mobile devices available to me which I could use for testing.

Regards,

Same for me, I have one HP still used for games. I never develop in mobile devices, but I guess I could load and run a program on it, if it is useful.

We recently purchased an intelligent bar-codes-scanner running Windows CE. We were planning to make some applications for it.

I use massively WinCE devices, with Barcodes and RFID readers. I have Lazarus/FPC applications running on many devices.

Same in our company. We use Motorola mobile computers with WinCE 5 and WinCE6 and we compile native applications for them. (So WinCE support is for us very important)

7 interested users including me is a start :)

I have added test projects to a few WinCE bug reports (2 of these reports include patches). Pls test and report in mantis.

I am sure that there are much more interested users. May be, that they are not subscribed to this maillist
(it is also my case. I do not read regularly this maillist I am mostly on forum)

I have added test projects to a few WinCE bug reports (2 of these reports include patches). Pls test and report in mantis.

I did tests with Lazarus 1.4.4 on my WinCE 6 device (Motorola MC9190G) (btw in all test applications I have must change
Form1.Position=poScreenCenter, else no form is displayed on my device)

Edit1 is left justified, not right

http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=27921

My patch does not work ;-) !!! Why? Can it be caused by upgrade from Lazarus 1.4.0 to 1.4.4 ?
(as my original patch I have tested on 1.4.0 and it worked also today before upgrade)

http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=17098

Works ok, when I press button, label changed

http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=21282

Without patch same error. With patch (workaround) okay
