Easier Dynamic Win32 API


Easier Dynamic Win32 API 04/11/2005 05:42 AM

When Win32 API first came out, it wasn't sprawled out like it is now.  As it expanded (exploded) in spurts across versions, architectures, and service packs, Windows developers had to deal increasingly with the headaches from the need to take advantage of latest features without crippling their software with older Windows.

While one could now use deferred library loading creatively to address this problem, I've always handled it with manual LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress calls.  Well, I finally got tired of doing this so I tried the handy LateLoad, a small MFC-style event framework-like macros that creates a C++ class for each library and a C++ method for each procedure.  Very nice.

Here is the LateLoad definitions for a set of Win32 functions one needs to enumerating running processes and modules across Win32 versions.

LATELOAD_BEGIN_CLASS(CPsApi, PSAPI.DLL, FALSE, FALSE)

Unlocking Verizon V265 phones


Unlocking Verizon V265 phones 02/05/2005 10:00 PM
Ben Wilson: Now, here's the rub... (There is always a rub). Verizon had locked down these phones so damned tight! You couldn't get your photos off of your phone unless you paid Verizon $0.25 to send them via email from your phone. And if you wanted to transfer a background image to your phone, you had to go the same route. You can't upload games or ringtones or any of the things that you might expect a futurephone such as this would allow. Verizon has that locked down and would like to sucker you at $0.25 a pop. Me, being the meddling user/client/customer that I am did a little research ...

They just arrived on Wednesday, so I'm one of the first few folks to get one (at least from my local Verizon Wireless store). To recap, my reasons for switching are twofold: I wanted to get onto Verizon for the superior coverage. I wanted a Bluetooth phone. The V710 is Verizon's one and only Bluetooth phone. So far, all I can say is that it's...

Verizon Launches Strike Against Cell

08/04/2004 09:57 AM

verizon.jpg imageAlthough I've been blessed enough to have dodged the cellular spam bullet, I know not all of you have been so lucky. And while it's far from an epidemic (yet), Verizon Wireless is trying to nip it in the bud, filing federal lawsuits against a group of alleged New Jersey cell phone spammers who sent "152,000 unsolicited commercial electronic messages to thousands of Verizon Wireless subscribers."

Until Verizon takes down their awful sign that mars the downtown Manhattan skyline, they will remain my sworn enemy. I am glad, though, to see someone try to take a chunk out of these assholes before it becomes an even bigger deal. That being said, you can only do so much with lawsuits; perhaps a technological solution is needed. Like the one for email. Nevermind.

Xten has announced its newest Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) SoftPhone, eyebeam, which, like other SoftPhone software previously released by the company, will turn your Mac into a phone that can place and receive calls via Voice-Over IP (VoIP), a protocol that carries voice data over the Internet.

Post-circuit-switched voicemail


Post-circuit-switched voicemail 11/01/2003 12:57 PM
Nice rant on how "circuit-switched" thinking is holding back advancement in telephony:
Assume a phone call requires an (extremely generous) 3Kb per second of audio. One hour of stored audio is about 10Mb of data. This is a pretty modest amount by the standards of modern flash memeory. Your mobile phone is perfectly capable of storing all your voicemail. The network is perfectly capable of transmitting the data in a sensible amount of time. Unlike email, most voicemail is listened to -- the amount of wasted download is small...

You should be able to listen to voicemails on your plane journey home. You should be able to reply to them on a store-and-forward basis, even when you're not connected to the network. And most of all, you shouldn't have to use a clunky telephony user interface to navigate a message queue. And you shouldn't be restricted to one device for accessing your own data.

More Verizon/Motorola V710 Details 07/29/2004 11:30 AM

v710_perihpasd.jpg imageSo we knew Motorola's new V710 was going to be hitting Verizon Wireless sometime in August, but internal documents reveal the exact date will be the 11th (and by internal documents I mean a PDF on their site, so peruse away.) Pricing looks about standard for a phone in this range: $420 at full retail; as low as $320 subsidized with a two-year contract.

The most interesting information, though, are the three listed Bluetooth Accessories, a headset ($80), a car kit ($200 ouch!), and an external speaker ($100). While their function is pretty much self-explanatory, what they don't address is that niggling rumor that the V710 somehow uses a non-standard Bluetooth implementation (which would mean other, less-expensive third-party peripherals wouldn't work). I guess we'll have to wait until someone gets their hands on one to confirm. (Thanks, Barry!)
