Unexpected Resume When Suspending After an Alarm Resume (295072)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows CE Platform Builder 3.0
This article was previously published under Q295072

SYMPTOMS

A Windows CE-based device may automatically resume if it is suspended shortly after it resumes from an alarm. For example, this problem can occur if you first start the World Clock tool, set an alarm, and then suspend the Windows CE-based device. When the device resumes and you tap Dismiss to close the alarm dialog box, if you suspend the device within one minute, it will resume again after one minute has elapsed, starting from the previous resume by alarm.

This problem occurs when the CeSetUserNotification function is called with the CE_USER_NOTIFICATION.ActionFlags PUN_REPEAT flag bit set.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because a second event is created to set up the next notification interval after the alarm sound finishes.

RESOLUTION
