Slow eVB

[Myriam Wagemans]

Hi,

I've develloped a client-server application with TCP-IP between a PC and a
Pocket PC (client)
The TCP-IP connection is very fast, but when the data is arrived in the
Pocket PC, the screen refresh with
the new data is very slow, especially when I work with colors

I heared the system could slow down when memory is all used. But when all my
forms are loaded, I still have 14 Mb free ...

Someone told me I have to use memory to build my screen and when it is
ready, blit it to the screen. Does any one know how to do this and whether
it is effective ?

Hi Myriam,
how are you displaying your data. Are you using a listbox or a listview. If
so, make them invisible, fill them with data, and then .visible = true.
If not, what control are you using to display data??

I have a screen with a list of clients, which is displayed in a listsbox.

But I also have a list of produkts, which are displayed in a bunch of push
buttons. (I also tried labels and textboxes)
This was done because our client likes to see different colors for the
diffent produkts.
Now I'm placing a shape before the buttons with produkt items which display
the color

But it is especially slow when after selecting a produkt, the screen with
the produkt information comes which is made of labels (steady info) and
textboxes for the client to fill.

Makes this sense to you ?

Hi,
why not put the products in a grid. i THINK you can maybe use background
colours in a grid.
When filling the clients, listbox.visible = false, fill the list,
listbox.visible = true.
I use TCP/IP to fill listviews, and provided you do this, the speed is
acceptable.

Hi,

I'm curious about what you've mentioned about the TCP/IP connections between
PC & Pocket. How do you go about that? Can you please show me how to do it?
Thank you

Kate
