Windows Mobile device incompatibilities - need suggestions for how to approach testing

问题

I have a user who runs my application on a Samsung BlackJack with WM 6.1. He reports issues, like labels not appearing on forms, that I cannot reproduce on any of the emulators or the device that I am developing with (T-Mobile Shadow and WM 6.0).

What are my options to reproduce and identify issues like that, without getting any offending device myself and trying it out?

回答1:

screen sizes are different. The resolutions may also be different. Microsoft has emulators for square pdas and vga resolution pdas. Using the Anchor property of labels might help.

The Windows Mobile 6 Professional and Standard Software Development Kits Refresh contains the following emulators:

*  Windows Mobile 6 Standard SDK
      o Windows Mobile 6 Standard (176x220 pixels - 96 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Standard Landscape QVGA (240x320 pixels - 131 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Standard QVGA (320x240 pixels - 131 dpi)

* Windows Mobile 6 Professional SDK
      o Windows Mobile 6 Classic (240x320 pixels - 96 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Professional (240x320 pixels - 96 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Professional Square (240x240 pixels - 96 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Professional Square QVGA (320x320 pixels - 128 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Professional Square VGA (480x480 pixels - 192 dpi)
      o Windows Mobile 6 Professional VGA (480x640 pixels - 192 dpi)

If the emulators don't help, perhaps make a build with more logging built in and give it to the user. Chances are if they reported the bug, they'll be willing to help a little and send you some logs from that private build. In the case of a UI glitch though, I'm not sure what logging would help.

This true that my application works well on all other emulators even the Square emulators. But I am getting scroll bar on SQUARE screen with 128 DPI (320 x 320). Other square screens are fine.

I thik this is because how it is rounding the size of the controls when it scales. That is 128/96 = 1.3333. Reduce the control size or compact it when you see these 128DPI 320/320 square screen. (This is Square QVGA).
