I have used 4.2 for quite a while. Apart from its general inability to
connect reliably it worked OK.
To backup Outlook files reliably I stop and restart WCESMgr.exe from
within a batch file using
"c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe" /quit
before the backup - and
"c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe"
after the backup. This has worked well with 4.2.
I have upgraded to 4.5B2 and the connecting is now much more reliable.
However, I now find with 4.5 that
"c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe" /quit
still works OK, but
"c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe"
hangs the batch file.
Strangely, entering
"c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe"
manually on a command line does not result in a hang, it only hangs
from within a batch file.
I am now using
start "c:\program files\microsoft activesync\wcesmgr.exe"
so that only the child command shell hangs and the main batch can get
on with it, but it is a quite untidy result.
Has anybody else noticed this behaviour, or am I doing something
obviously wrong.
Thanks,
Fred.
