Hi, I wonder if you'd like to add this to the examples. It's a Python function to send an SMS message (text message) from PythonCE. Tested on Windows Mobile 6.0 Smartphone, should work on most others. Took me a while to figure out and I thought others might benefit.
import ctypes import ctypes.wintypes as wintypes def send_SMS_message(number, unicode_text): handle = wintypes.DWORD() ret = ctypes.cdll.sms.SmsOpen(u"Microsoft Text SMS Protocol", wintypes.DWORD(2),ctypes.byref(handle),None) if not (ret==0 and handle): raise Exception("SmsOpen error") class SMSaddress(ctypes.Structure): _fields_ = [("smsatAddressType",ctypes.c_int), ("ptsAddress",ctypes.c_wchar * 256)] unicode_text = u"" + unicode_text # make sure it's Unicode ret = ctypes.cdll.sms.SmsSendMessage(handle,None, ctypes.byref(SMSaddress(0,number)),None,unicode_text, wintypes.DWORD(2*len(unicode_text)),"\0\0\0\0\3\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", wintypes.DWORD(12),ctypes.c_int(0),wintypes.DWORD(0),None) if not ret==0: raise Exception("SmsSendMessage error") ctypes.cdll.sms.SmsClose(handle) Thanks. Silas PS: Thanks for developing PythonCE, much appreciated. I'm using it for my language-learning program and front-end to eSpeak speech synth http://people.pwf.cam.ac.uk/ssb22/gradint/ among other things. -- Silas S Brown http://people.pwf.cam.ac.uk/ssb22 _______________________________________________ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce
