FAQ
What's the best way to get the Device ID of an H19?
- Use the GetDeviceId method of the H19 SDK (H1xSDK.dll).
My app is throwing an exception when I try and create a ScanBarcode or BarcodeDevice object on other Windows Mobile devices. What's going on?
- Well, the H1xSDK is only meant for the H16 and H19 devices! If your app needs to try and determine the model of device at runtime, there are a few ways to go about it: you can use the GetSystemInfo native function and the OEM ID field of the structure it returns, or if your app is written in C# and using the .NET runtime, and you don't want to P/Invoke GetSystemInfo, you can check out the DeviceManagement class of the OpenNETCF framework.
