AutoStartAddendum 7AutoStart The AutoStart program provides two functions: • Automatically reinstalls specified CAB files when the Falcon starts up.• Allows you to create a list of applications (with optional command line arguments) to run automatically at startup.AutoStart launches each time the Falcon is rebooted with a Cold Reset. AutoStart then installs all the CAB files located in the AutoStart CAB folder. If the AutoStart CAB folder does not exist, no CAB files will be installed.Table 4. AutoStart CAB folder LocationAutoStart will then run the Autostart.ini (reference Table 5 for the loca-tion), executing each line with the specified command line arguments. It will take into account any AutoStart options at the beginning of the line.Table 5. AutoStart Autostart.ini LocationInstalling CAB filesCopy any CAB files you want to install into the AutoStart CAB folder. These CAB files will then be automatically installed in alphabetical order the next time you start the device (with the exception of a Windows Mobile Clean Boot, which would remove the CAB files). Reference the QRG for F4400 with Windows Mobile for information about Clean Boot.CAUTIONPerforming a Windows Mobile Clean Boot will remove the AutoStart folder and allAutoStart settings. Reference the Falcon 4400 with Windows Mobile QRG for detailedinformation about a Clean Boot.Product Operating System LocationF4400 Windows CE \FlashFX DiskWindows Mobile \Windows\AutostartProduct Operating System LocationF4400 Windows CE \FlashFX DiskWindows Mobile \Windows\Autostart
AutoStart8Falcon® 4400 Series with Windows® CEHow AutoStart Uses WceloadCAB files are installed by AutoStart using the Wceload.exe application. Table 6 on page 8 shows available command line options:Table 6. AutoStart command line optionsPlease refer to the Microsoft documentation on your device for further details on Wceload.exe.Sample: \Windows\Wceload.exe /delete 1 /noui /silent “\Windows\AutoStart\<cab file>”Interactive CAB InstallIf the CAB installer requires user interaction that must be performed during the AutoStart CAB installation process, you can specify a special file name to disable the silent mode installation. If this mode is specified, the CAB file will be installed with Wceload without any command line arguments specified.An example of what AutoStart would execute is:\Windows\Wceload.exe <cab file>To force this mode of installation via AutoStart, rename the CAB file to include a ‘_’ character before the “.cab” extension of the file.Example:“File.cab” should be renamed “File_.cab” to force AutoStart to not install the CAB in silent mode. This specially-named CAB file should be placed in the AutoStart folder with other CAB files intended for installation on the next reboot.If you intend to create highly interactive installers, you should either install theCABs manually or review the section on “Interactive CAB Install” in this chapter.Option Description/nouiSpecifies that you will not be prompted for any input during the installation. If the CAB file is signed, any responses will automatically be answered ‘Yes.’ If the CAB is unsigned, then any responses will be answered ‘No.’/silent Suppresses dialog boxes during the installation.
AutoStartAddendum 9Autostart.iniThe Autostart.ini is a text file that AutoStart will run upon startup of the Falcon, and after any CAB files are installed. This file should be placed in the AutoStart folder. AutoStart will run the Autostart.ini file on each reboot of the device (with the exception of a Clean Boot, which will remove the AutoStart folder).Line FormattingEach line of the Autostart.ini can consist of Autostart options, an execut-able, and any command line arguments.< Autostart option(s)> <full path to executable> <command line arguments>Sample: - \windows\pword.exe \file.docTabl e 7 breaks down the sample Autostart.ini line.Table 7. Autostart.ini line formattingSpaces must be placed between each component of the line in the Autostart.ini. If the executable path is in a folder that contains spaces in the name, quotes are required to distinguish what the actual executable name is. The following is an example of this:“\Program Files\PSC\ScannerApp.exe” /run (valid)\Program Files\PSC\ScannerApp.exe /run (invalid)The second line is an invalid line because there is no way to distinguish the executable from the argument.Autoexec.ini, which uses AutoCE on some older models, has been deprecated.These files should be renamed to Autostart.ini and reformatted as described in"AutoStart" on page 1-7.Autostart option(s) Full path to executable Command line arguments- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc
AutoStart10 Falcon® 4400 Series with Windows® CEAutoStart OptionsTabl e 8 shows options you can use when writing a line in the Autostart.ini file.Table 8. Options for Autostart.iniCold Reset Only: This will cause the line to execute only after a Cold Reset.Combining OptionsAutostart options can be combined together as shown in the following sample:?- \Windows\Pword.exeThis line would:• Request confirmation before executing the line. The next line would not be processed before the confirmation is answered.• Run the next line without waiting on the current line to complete execu-tion. Query OptionThe query option is intended for use when debugging the autostart.ini. When a line with this option is executed, the following dialog will appear with Description Character CommentsComment: This line will not be exe-cuted.‘#’ OR ‘ ‘ (space)This may only be used as the first character of the line. If the comment option is specified in the options elsewhere, it is ignored.Do not wait on line completion: This will cause the line to execute and immediately move onto the next line.‘-’Query: Request user confirmation when running the executable. ‘?’This will halt parsing the Autostart.ini until the confirmation is answered. This is intended for debugging the Autostart.ini file.Execute only on Cold Reset ‘!’An empty line will be treated as a comment line.
