Description:
I have written a eVB programm for an iPAQ running PocketPC 2002. It collects information and uploads it to a server via WinSock. At the moment the user has to manually open the RAS connection, but I want to be able to do this from code. All I need is a few functions which open/close the RAS connection.
Deliverables: 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
2) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
Platform:
iPAQ 3870 with PocketPC 2002
Must be 100% finished and received by buyer on:

Hi Juergen.
We've developed applications that deal with RAS under CE since two years ago, and have plenty of experience here.
A RAS connection can be done synchronously or asynchronously. Under eVB, the first one is obviously the easier, but is the least flexible for the user because he/she can't cancel or see any progress information until it is all finished.
We've developed a library that does it Asynchronously, allowing your application to provide full feedback to the user during each step of the connection (so he 'knows' and 'sees' what's happening), and also, if desired, allows to be canceled/interrupted at any time. It deals with timers and API calls directly, plus some 'state' logic to achieve this.
Please find attached a working sample. It will establish a RAS connection using a fixed RAS entry named 'att'. After connecting, it will stay on for 10 seconds and then shutdown. This limitation will be removed in the final version.
You'll need to create the 'att' entry manually and specify al the parameters you need (phone number, modem, etc). For the username & password do a manual connection once, and you'll be prompted to enter them.
I have code to create the RAS entry programatically, if needed. Your bid request doesn't ask for one, though.
The current code is ready to be dropeed in your eVB project. Delivery will be in <24 hours.
Thanks,
Aldo
