RAPI copy file using OpenNETCF.Desktop.Communication.dll

I’m currently using the OpenNETCF.Desktop.Communication.dll to copy files from my desktop to a CE device, but I keep getting an error:

‘Could not create remote file’

My development environment is VS2005 (VB.NET)

My code:

ObjRapi.Connect()
ObjRapi.CopyFileToDevice("C:\results.txt", "\results.txt")
ObjRapi.Dispose()
ObjRapi.Disconnect()

Has anyone run into this and did you manage to get around it.

Thanks

  • I have run into this once before but I can't really remember what was causing it.

    The only thing I can think of from looking at your code is this line:

    ObjRapi.CopyFileToDevice("C:\results.txt", "\ \results.txt")

    I'm not sure but you could try and change the destination path to something different. Something like this:

    ObjRapi.CopyFileToDevice("C:\results.txt", "\My Documents\results.txt")

    I can't really test this at the moment but I really don't see why it wouldn't work.

    EDIT: I just had a look at some code that I have writen using the RAPI,when I do any copying my line looks like this:

    ObjRapi.CopyFileToDevice("C:\results.txt", "\My Documents\results.txt",True)

    The boolean on the end is an overwrite switch, setting that to true may work.
