PDA needs to be reset to be able to start our app. again

[Markus Humm]

Hello,

we're writing some app. for Pocket PCs using CF 1.0 and openNETCF 1.4
for RS232 communication.

On one device we get an exception at closing the RS232 port which says
something like this:

"A thread (hex) has ended with 0". It seems to me that some thread has
been ended what could be normal but:

we close our app then because we wanted to finish anyway and the app.
isn't listed under running programs anymore, what would be okay either.
Problem: the user now can start any app. on his Pocket PC but not ours!
Ours won't run unless you're rebooting the Pocket PC (soft reset)!

What is wrong here? Why do we get this? It's a device with WM 5.0
but on another modell with WM 5.0 all is fine... and on others with WM
2003 it's fine as well!

Greetings

Markus

Hi Markus,

In this case your application isn't realy finished. There are still
some thread's from your application running. (Yes you don't see them in
System-> Settings->memorty->running).
Make sure all your thread's are finish if you quit the application !!

Hm, okay. But how do I know which threads there are in my app.?
It's a normal VB.NET CF app. using only the serial classes from
NETCFSDF. And normal timers.
