Formless apps possible?

T

Tim Johnson

I want to write an app that starts listening to a serial port when launched,
but otherwise doesn't present any UI. When certain data is detected on the
port I'll popup the first form. The Application.Run() with no args doesn't
seem to be supported in CF v1.0. I thought of doing a normal form load in
the .Run method, whose Load does an immediate Hide, but is there some more
recommended way to design this sort of "formless" (at least at first) app?
Probably later on I'll have a Today screen icon which when clicked brings up
that first form, but it seems like it's the same issue - what do you "run"
in App.Run?
