Johnny Dread Gallente MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.06.23 08:41:00 - [1] It's only been a few days and I already see a lot of great new tools using the newly released Eve API. Thanks CCP! There have been a lot of forum topics asking (including me) for a little tool to check the currently training skill on a mobile phone (Windows Mobile 5). So I decided to try to code something myself: Linkage Screenshots It's very basic at the moment but I'll update its functionality in the future. I'll also provide the source code as soon as I cleaned it up a bit. Let me know what you think. Any suggestions are welcome. - Johnny D
Johnny Dread Gallente MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.06.29 17:58:00 - [2] Originally by: Max Kentarii Looks like a nice app. Would be great if you could have it on the Today's page. Yes, that was my plan initialy. Didn't find an easy solution to do this. Currently all my code is writen for the .NET Compact Framework which doesn't support Today plugins yet without some embedded C++ magic. I am also having some trouble getting the mobile out of standby mode to actually play the alarm. Hopefully I'll have some more time to fix this issue over the weekend.
Johnny Dread Gallente MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.08.04 09:41:00 - [3] Edited by: Johnny Dread on 04/08/2007 09:41:33 Thanks for the feedback. I didn't have as much time as I hoped the last couple of weeks. But myself and my corp mate are now working on this project again so hopefully we'll see some progress soon.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.09.16 07:53:00 - [4] I finally got around to actually release a polished version. Quite a few changes in version 0.2: Account/Character selection dialog o Configure multiple accounts/characters o At the moment still limited to one character monitored but you can switch Skill Browser o Browse all Skills o Brose all trained skills o Merged view showing all skills and your trained skills are marked Simple Personal & Corp Wallet Screen (Requires Full Access API Key) Correct Wakeup if Mobile is in standby mode A lot of smaller fixes and improvements Let me know if you find any problems with this version. Expect a version with a working Today screen plugin soon(tm)
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.01 18:03:00 - [5] Originally by: Pottsey Is this phones only or should it work on PDA's with Windows Mobile 5? Cannot get it to work on my iPAQ PDA. It should work. Had it working on my Dell Axim but is a pain to update since you need WiFi. Originally by: Orchid Ix Works great on my T-Mobile Wing with Windows Mobile 6 :) Save a few minor glitches here and there. What kind of glitches? i found a bug where it would not always play the "Skill Completed" sound which should be fixed in next release. (Hopefully next weekend) I am also working on using the Calendar for the reminders which probably is a lot more reliable then my own method.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.06 15:30:00 - [6] Originally by: Orchid Ix I had the phone's screen off, and when I'd power the screen back on, it would repeat the "Skill training completed" sound over and over untill I killed the process. Yes, thats the sound bug I fixed. Hopefully I'll have some time this weekend to release the next version.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.08 18:43:00 - [7] Here is the next release of EveSkillPocket. The two main features are Today Screen plugin Outlook (Calendar) integration. Additional we fixed quite a few bugs from feedback of you guys. Keep them coming. Download it here. As always if you find any bugs or have suggestions for new features let me know. - Johnny D
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.08 18:50:00 - [8] Originally by: Higan Re'tur Works fine on my HP hx4700 running WM5 - unfortunately it runs significantly slower compared to v0.1 and eats a large chunk of memory. We might have found the problem with this. I think some devices don't handle the 1MB or so embedded resources very well. This was introduced in 0.2 in an attempt for an easier install. Check out Version 0.3 if it is any better. Originally by: Higan Re'tur The wallet freezes for a minute or so and crashes with a NET2.0 error dialog. It doesn't happen when I provide the Full key, but still very slow. The wallet requires the full key 0.3 should display a nice error message that explains this instead of the crash of version 0.2 Originally by: Higan Re'tur It would be nice if the program saved the current skill in training upon exit, for those of us having no connection on the go. This is a planned feature which hopefully will be included soon. Keep the feedback coming. Very much appreciated.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.12 09:04:00 - [9] Originally by: Orchid Ix Unable to get the "Today Plugin" to work in the Wing (WM6) running. Even tried rebooting the device. It already has the latest version of .NET as well. Will be testing for the sound issue over night. Can you go to Settings -> Today and disable/enable Eve Skill Pocket maybe that helps. If you have a device with Primary-Storage + Flash, SD-Card and installed Eve Skill Pocket on the Flash drive. Try to install it in the primary storage. There seems to be an issue with Windows Mobile not being able to load Today Plugins from the secondary storage. We are working on a fix for this. We'll probably have to modify the installer CAB file to install the plugin on your primary storage and the main application on the user selected one. This looks like a limitation of Windows Mobile itself. Known Bugs: I also had a report that the Wallet doesn't work sometimes (WebException) or displays incorrect values. I'll have a look at this over the weekend as well.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.10.12 12:49:00 - [10] Originally by: Buttford Is there a way to have 2 characters on the today screen at the same time? No, not yet. But Multi-Character Account is something on the TODO List.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.11.19 13:45:00 - [11] Just a quick update. I've created a Sourceforge project for those interested in the source code. (Browse SVN) You can also submit bugs there: Tracker -> Bugs, Click Submit New Expect a new version soon with some bugfixes: - Today Plugin font sizes - Two Eve Skill Pocket instances running after standby mode - Fix for installations that are not on the primary flash memory.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.11.20 08:49:00 - [12] Edited by: Johnny Dread on 20/11/2007 08:49:17 Originally by: Zakr 3.0 don't work Update on the ASUS 969 error "EveSkillPocket.exe - ArgumentOutOfRangeException" When does this error occur? Can you see more details in the error message? Originally by: Onyx Grey Is there some sort of trick to get the XML file to work? I entered in my API key and everything, but when I access it in my phone it has a red circle icon next to MainAccount and CynoAlternate. What am I doing wrong? In the character screen, select (click,tap) the character you want to activate. Then go back and click update.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.11.21 07:36:00 - [13] Originally by: Ezra Originally by: Brother Benthor not working in my Qtek S200 :( i can install, i can see the character list, but when i press update the loading symbol shows and never disappears or updates :( I have tested if it was internet problems, but i can use explorer with no problem. Same problem here with an AT&T Tilt (running the HTC TyTn II ROM, so it's basically a TyTn II). EveSkillPocket can clearly get some info from the EVE servers as it discovered the list of characters (and what corp they are in) on each of the accounts that I had IDs and API Keys for. ... This might be caused by the change to the EveAPI CCP Garthagk posted here. I don't have to code in front of me but I think we send out two requests and the second will probably be blocked by the Eve API server. I'll have a look at it.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2007.11.21 07:38:00 - [14] Originally by: toxicvega Looks like a great program, however I get this error "Eve Skill Pocket was unable to load your character.xml. Please make sure you have a correct (minimal) character.xml file in your EveSkillPocket directory" HELP Modify the include character.xml.sample file with your API Key and UserID. Once that is done copy it over to the correct EveSkillPocket directory on your device as "character.xml" We are still trying to figure out a way to make this process easier. If anyone has a good idea let me know. (Maybe some kind of Desktop application, but I am not sure yet)
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2008.02.11 17:22:00 - [15] After quite some time I finally got around to release Version 0.5 This version only has some tiny fixes as well as caching support for the Skill Tree page. Head to the SourceForge.net page to download the latest version. Bug Reports and Feature requests are always welcome. If you find any bugs or have a feature request either send me a quick Eve-Mail or create an issue on the SourceForge page.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2008.02.11 17:27:00 - [16] Originally by: Crytan Now I've made an attempt to create a program that will create a proper xml for you. I met some problems with saving the xml file directly to my mobile device. You may have to move it manually after the program have created it for you. http://www.torpify.net/?page_id=28 @Johhny Dread: If this is something you want to add to your program, please contact me :-) Nice! Looks great. I am still looking into a way on how to automatically transfer the actual generated file to the device using ActiveSync. I'll look into this if I have some more free time. But maybe you are faster. If you find an easy "more or less one-click" solution let me know and I'll integrate it into the next version. Something like "Write XML & Copy to Device". So that the user only has to enter the API Key and UserId and everything else is done by the application.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2008.02.29 20:12:00 - [17] Originally by: Lima Enisson 4 Johnny Dread I can't see the end skill date/time Can u fix it? Program using in HP iPAQ h2790 WM5 Thanks for the screenshot. It looks like you are running some special Today screen (non standard fonts). The Today plugin will get a overhaul at some point so you can override the standard font settings. Originally by: Kilmatar Maybe this can help you a little: MSDN - copying file to device example Oh this looks very promising. I'll have a look at it this weekend.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2009.03.29 11:42:00 - [18] Edited by: Johnny Dread on 29/03/2009 11:42:24 Just a quick note. Yes I am still around just not a lot of time to play Eve and update Eve Skill Pocket The crashes some of you are reporting are probably related to the new skills introduced in Apocrypha. So replacing the SkillTree.xml should fix that. I also noticed that the API servers are throwing lots of HTTP 500 errors lately which could also cause some problems. There should be a new version out soon.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2009.04.01 15:56:00 - [19] Latest Version (0.7) is now available on the usual SourceForge project page here. Quite a few changes in this version but the main things are: New UI Design New Windows for Skill and Certificates Apocrypha Specific Data (can now be updated directly from within the application if there are new skills/certificates out after a patch) Big Thanks goes out to Andares Sol, who contributed like 99% of the code in this version. He probably wouldn't mind some ISK donations.
Johnny Dread MORAT Section	Posted - 2009.04.01 19:59:00 - [20] The two bugs with the Skill Queue should now be fixed. I also found another bug when I installed it with a fresh character.xml I'll update my simple test check list for the future. So if you downloaded 0.7 already and see strange bugs please redownload it from sourceforge. Please let us know if you find any more bugs. Either directly by Eve Mail to me or by posting in this thread. Thanks.
