Symbol device development

[Zesiek]

Hi, everyone!

I have a problem with barcode scanning application in VS.net 2003. All
samples from devzone.symbol.com are working fine, but when I try to run
my project with Symbol library, the problem is starting. The problem is
with Symbol.Barcode.Reader and Symbol.Barcode.ReaderData. When I add
object of only one these class, my application doesn't start (see first
output). When I remove the object it starts. I paste my code in example
app and there is ok. Now I have two application:
1. created from new project
2. created from sample project.
The code is the same on both, but only second works.
I notice one diference. First program doesn't load two dll's:
Symbol.dll and Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.dll.

First output:
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\mscorlib.dll', No symbols
loaded.
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\Scanner.exe', Symbols
loaded.
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\Symbol.Barcode.dll', No
symbols loaded.
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\System.Drawing.dll', No
symbols loaded.
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\System.dll', No symbols
loaded.
'Scanner.exe': Loaded 'c:\Scanner\bin\Debug\System.Windows.Forms.dll',
No symbols loaded.
The program '[3952] rundll32.exe: Scanner.exe' has exited with code 0
(0x0).

Second output:
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded 'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\mscorlib.dll', No
symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded 'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\ScanInterSam.exe',
Symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded
'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms.dll', No symbols
loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded 'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\Symbol.dll', No
symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded
'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\Symbol.Barcode.dll', No symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded
'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\System.Drawing.dll', No symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded 'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\System.dll', No
symbols loaded.
'ScanInterSam.exe': Loaded
'c:\ScanSample1\bin\Debug\System.Windows.Forms.dll', No symbols loaded.

Have you a similar problem? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

reference Symbol.dll

Yes, I add reference to Symbol.dll and Symbol.Barcode.dll, but it
doesn't help.
But thanks for answer.

Reference Symbol, Symbol.Barcode, Symbol.BarcodeForms

Make sure you have your Imports statements above the class
Imports Symbol

Imports Symbol.Barcode

I solve the problem. I reset a device (hard reset - cold boot) and now
everything is allright.
Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to develope some apps using symbol MK1100 devices, I
have downloaded the SDK and could someone clarify if the sample can be
run only on the symbol devices or is there any emulator we can try with.

Thanks
