Problems with NET commands in PocketPC

[javiero]

Hi

I make a simple test with this code:

-------------------------------
ip$ = NETGETIP$()

PRINT ip$,10,10
SHOWSCREEN
MOUSEWAIT
--------------------------------

In windows work very well, but in a Pocketpc (with 3g) and other pocketpc (with wifi) do not work.

At run, the program ends inesperately

Any idea?

Hi Javiero, perhaps you need to make a bucle.
I?m not be sure of this, pero bueno.

Hi mentalthink.

What is the objetive for make a bucle?

The program when run the instruction  "ip$= NETGETIP$()" end inesperately.

I mind that launch a exception and the program stop.

Excuseme my very bad english please.

Code (glbasic) Select Expand

LIMITFPS 10
ip$ = NETGETIP$()
PRINT "NETGETIP$() Loaded",10,10
SHOWSCREEN

WHILE TRUE
PRINT ip$,10,20
SHOWSCREEN
WEND

Does this work?

Hi.

No. Not work.

When the program begin, ends inesperately without message.

Was test in 3 wince pdas differents.

- HP IPAQ 4700  (with wifi internet conection)
- HTC TOUCH (with gprs internet conection)
- HTC Diamond (with grps and wifi conection)

In both cases the pda conect with internet perfect (then must be a ip valid)

What if you do a "SOCK_INIT" before that?
