I'm trying to put a notification into my compact framework 2.0 application that allows me to inform the user when they've received a new job.
I've tried to use the following code with the latest community edition of SDF:
try
{
OpenNETCF.WindowsMobile.Vibrate.Play();
Thread.Sleep(duration);
OpenNETCF.WindowsMobile.Vibrate.Stop();
}
catch
{
// Ignore
}
No error actually fires, however on the play event, the vibrate doesn't work. Also, I've not worked out a way to play the default message alert - or a sound file. Is any of this possible?
public static void Vibrate(int duration)
{
try
{
OpenNETCF.WindowsCE.Notification.Led vib =
new OpenNETCF.WindowsCE.Notification.Led();
//---start vibration---
vib.SetLedStatus(1, Led.LedState.On);
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(duration);
//---stop vibration---
vib.SetLedStatus(1, Led.LedState.Off);
}
catch
{
// Ignore
}
}
I just found this, works nicely for vibrate, but I still need to know how to play the default message alert.
