beep in WinCE , it possible ?

Question

is it possible to make beep in WinCE ?

i try and i get an error

Answer 1

The .net framework methods for beeing are not available in the CF version of the framework. The best way to get a beep sound is to PInvoke into the MessageBeep function. The PInvoke signature for this method is pretty straight forward

[DllImport("CoreDll.dll")]
public static extern void MessageBeep(int code);

public static void MessageBeep() {
  MessageBeep(-1);  // Default beep code is -1
}
