Hi,

Who knows the Pocket streets 2005 whither supported intermediate
driver of GPS or not?
Thanks!

Bill

Not sure the question is really understood. Can you give an example of what
you mean or more detail? If you are asking if Pocket Streets works with the
WM5 GPS control panel that can redirect the comm port, yes, it does work.

Thanks Sven and Beverly.

Thank you, has the Pocket streets 2005 get GPS date over this driver I
mean that.

On the MSDN:
The GPS Intermediate Driver is useful to developers writing
applications that use GPS (Global Positioning System) devices as well
as to GPS hardware manufacturers. It is useful because it provides an
intermediate layer that abstracts the actual GPS device from developers
and manufacturers. Ideally, this enables application developers to
write code that works with any GPS hardware, and GPS device
manufacturers to produce hardware that works with any application.

Thanks!

That's kind of a developer question. Bev's more a dev than I, and there is a
microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer newsgroup too. My guess though is, yes,
I would guess it works. I would assume the GPS Control panel takes advantage
of that abstraction layer. It also has the advantage of creating a virtual
port that is not constrained by having only one connection. That is I can
have both Mapopolis and Pocket Streets connected to virtual port 5 at the
same time and have the control panel connect that to actual port 4 where the
GPS data is being received. Doesn't seem to work with every GPS app I've
played with, but it does for those two at least.
