State and Notifications Broker Sample

Send Feedback

This sample demonstrates how to use the State and Notifications Broker APIs.

Note   To make the following code example easier to read, security checking and error handling are not included. This code example should not be used in a release configuration unless it has been modified to include them.

Building the Sample

This sample was originally created using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and the Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Pocket PC. To build this sample, add all of the files below to a new solution and add in a standard icon file named BattStat.ico. Compile and link the solution. The executable BattStat.exe will be created.

Running the Sample

To run the sample, launch the BattStat.exe executable. A window with the main battery and backup battery status information will be displayed. The command line arguments are also displayed for demonstration purposes. The battery status will be updated as the information changes. For example, if the Pocket PC is placed in its cradle, the Battery State will change to "Charging". If you want to make the notifications persistant, then you can select "Persist" from the menu. The BattStat application will then be launched whenever a battery notification is received. To remove the persistent notification, select "Remove Persist" from the menu. To exit the application, select "Quit".

How the Sample Works

The sample registers four transient notifications when it is launched in the procedure RegisterWindows(). The notifications are for changes in main battery state, main battery strength, backup battery state, and backup battery strength. For demonstration purposes, a callback is used to receive changes in main battery state. The other notifications are received as custom window messages.

When registering the notifications, a series of definitions are used from the snapi.h header file. This file contains a set of definitions for each base notification - the registry root, the registry key, the registry value name. A bitmask indicating which bits are relevant is also defined for some notifications when it is needed.

The subroutine RegisterApps() is called when the "Persist" menu item is selected. The four battery notifications are again registered but this time are made persistent.

When a notification is received, the changed value is interpreted according to the relevant bitmask and value for the notification and the status window is updated.

BattStat.cpp

//
// BattStat.exe
//
// This sample demonstrates how to use the State and Notification Broker APIs.  More specifically, it
// demonstrates:
// - use of Window Message Notifications - RegistryNotifyWindow
// - use of Window Callback Notifications - RegistryNotifyCallback
// - use of Persistent Notifications - RegistryNotifyApp
// - use of the Main Battery and Backup Battery Strength and State notifications
// - how to apply bitmasks when registering the notifications 
// - how to extract and interpret the changed values using the proper bitmasks
// - how to include or exclude command line information in the Persistent Notifications
// - how to form the proper application path in a Persistent Notification  (ie  inserting quotes around the path)
// - how to unregister Message Notifications
// - how to unregister Callback Notifications
// - how to unregister Persistent Notifications
//
// The program is designed to show the user the current status of their main and backup battery.  
// Whenever a battery notification event is received, the battery status information will be updated
// in the display.
//
// To notification can be made persistent by selecting the "Persist" command from the menu.  Then, when
// a battery notification is sent, BattStat will be launched and display the updated status.
//
// The command line information is also included in the status area for demonstration purposes.
//
