I want to get a list of all running application in my windows mobile 6.5 from my application.
Can anyone tell me how to do this for CF??
You have to P/Invoke the toolhelp APIs. There used to be an MSDN article that covered this (it's a bit long to put it all into a post here, though maybe that's a better idea?). The gist of it can also be found in the SDF source code over on Github.

Since I haven't got any response on the Unity3d or Evernote forums, I'll try it here.
The last year I have worked a lot with Unity3D, mostly because the good integration with the Vuforia Augmented Reality library and the fact that publishing for multiple platforms is a piece of cake.
Now I want to show notes in an AR setting and am looking at the Evernote API for this. I couldn't find anything about using this with Unity, I can see why this is not the most common combination.
My question is: do you think I can access the Evernote API through Unity? If so, how should I do this? Or is it for this purpose perhaps wiser to make (parts of) the application with Eclipse/xCode?
Hope to hear from you!

The Evernote API has a C# SDK which you should be able to call through Unity. In terms of how to do it, you will probably need to download the SDK and follow the instructions yourself. Their github seems like a good starting point.
One thing to note is that Unity's .Net library for mobile clients are quite limited and with webplayer you will need to deal with sandbox security issues. But start with the standalone build first and see how you go
I wrote an application in a JS-based framework called Titanium. This framework doesn't have some functions, so I'm bundling autohotkeys, and using STDIN/STDOUT to connect the two. Autohotkeys has a cool function DllCall which allows to interconect with the operating system and should help me close the gap between the JS-based framework and the missing functionality.
To give you an example, Titanium allows me to bind to a specific port. But if I bind to 0 and let the OS pick a free port (as it should), it will work, but there's no way to tell which port it actually bound to.
Now since I come from web applications, DLLs are new to me; so I have a few questions:
Is there like a big doc with all the DLLs and all their methods?
How do I know if some methods are dependent on some services? I mean I've heard some rely on RPCs, COM, COM+, WMIs, etc. which a user can turn off and if it does, these methods won't work. Is there also a place where I can get more info on this?
Are there any off-the-shelf DLLs, with their methods, which I can trust that they will work 100% from XP up to 7?
Are there any access permissions I should know about? Are they documented.
If you also come from web programming, is there anything else I should be aware about?
Thank you very much.
You can find a (mostly) complete documentation of all Windows API functions (which reside in DLLs) either online on MSDN or offline using the documentation from the Windows SDK.
For example look at the documentation for SHGetSpecialFolderPath. There you can find various information, like the DLL (shell32.dll), any prerequisites (min. IE 4) and the platform availablity. (min. Windows 2000) Also security considerations are documented.
All API functions are documented more or less in this manner. A good starting point is the Windows Developer Reference. From there you can browse through the many API functions.
Basically the answer to every question is that you should search MSDN for the functions or APIs you are interested in and read the documentation there:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms123401.aspx
They document which operating systems the functions are available in so it should be easy to write something that works in Windows XP and up.
I'm having a number of issues, and the current one is overcoming a security exception when using iTextSharp.

To which I was directed following this question I posted yesterday:
Displaying a bar code with iTextSharp using Chris Love's Barcode Handler (2 part)
Seems to be what is required to overcome my problem. But I have searched and searched and cannot find a definitive and simple answer to the question "How do I compile a DLL"
So, having made the suggested modification to iTextSharp, I need to make it into a single DLL.
I have absolutely no idea how to do this, despite an hour of Googling!
I'm using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. Which according to my searches does not have any built in capability to do this. So... how do I?!
Do I NEED to download Visual Web Developer Pro? I can surely download the free trial and use that, but going forward, I don't especially want to have to download a pay-for program to do this as it's a rare occurrence for my needs.
I noticed the other day that the Zune PC Software exposes a type library (ZuneCore.dll). It seems to be related to the WMPLib API in some way but I can't figure out how to use it either from VB6 or C#.
Has anybody tried this and had any luck?

May be an old question, but this link might help: http://zunelcd.codeplex.com/ If you download the source for this project one of the class libraries is a decent API for communicating with the Zune Software.
i just found out about this -> http://soapitstop.com/blogs/fleamarket/archive/2008/03/03/read-the-zune-collection-in-net-from-zune-s-own-api.aspx but it seems a bit outdated Initialize method now takes some parameters and i dont know what to put there!
Try adding a reference to it from a .NET project in Visual Studio. Perhaps this namespace will appear magically: MicrosoftZuneLibrary
I have recently started working with Unified Communication Managed API 2.0 (UCMA) and Office Communication Server(OCS) 2007. I have a need in my app that I have to create custom presence for my users? Has anyone of you guys done this before and can point me in right direction?
There is not much documentation out there regarding this, so I am struggling here.
Thanks
I've not done any work with the 2.0 API yet, but these posts may be useful for you:
Joe Calev's Weblog (apologies if you've already seen them)
Also, there might be some useful nuggets in here (its V1 but some of the concepts are similar):
UCMA 1.0 Sample app
Ok I got the Answer.
We have to execute couple of stored procedures on OCS side to add those custom presence there.
Then we can publish to those presence just like every other ones!
