Re: running batch file at Windows CE 5.0 boot time



And for goodness sake don't post the same message separately all over the
place. Your question has already been answered in
microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder, for that matter. There's no call to
post it again anywhere.

Since many of us read several groups, you're just wasting our time reading
the same message over and over. Post it to *the* appropriate group. If
you're not sure, post to the target groups with a *single message*, listing
the targets in the To field. Although this is almost *never* needed,
newsreader software handles it like a single message, so you can avoid
annoying the very people who you need help from.

Hi All:

I want to start a bat file at windows ce startup. I tried to modify
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init" in the registry but did not work out. I suspect
it only accepts exe's. Then I have tried to make small exe application and
launch a bat file, but have not succeeded there either. My sourcode looks
like:

PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
ZeroMemory(&pi, sizeof(pi));

CreateProcess(TEXT("\\windows\\cmd.exe"),TEXT("\\windows\\startSMF.bat"),
NULL, NULL, FALSE,CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, NULL, NULL, NULL, &pi));
WaitForSingleObject(pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
CloseHandle(pi.hThread);
CloseHandle(pi.hProcess);
return 0;

If I run this small application from telnet console, the startSMF.bat will
be launched OK. (again the batch file cannot be launch at boot time)

Any work around to launch batch file in the boot time.

Thanks,

Chuck dot Lin @ Symbol dot COM
