What is BizTalk RFID Mobile?
Extends reach of BizTalk to mobile devices
Lightweight application platform for mobile devices
Supported on Win CE 5.0, Win Mobile 5.0 and
Win Mobile 6.0 platforms
Enables rapid h/w agnostic RFID and Barcode mobile
application development
Enables generation of software events from
mobile devices
Events need not be RFID events
Support for seamless server connectivity
Development
How to receive events and process them?
How to send them to backend systems through
BizTalk Server?
How to get events from new event source?
Receiving Events on the Device
How to receive events and process them?
// Application is running on the mobile device…
// Construct a DeviceConnection object to connect to the
// embedded RF or barcode module
DeviceConnection dc = new DeviceConnection(moduleName);
// Register for event notifications
dc.NotificationEvent += new NotificationEventHandler
(MyHandler);
// Open the connection to the module
dc.Open();
void MyHandler(object sender, NotificationEventArgs args)
{
// Process events
}
Store-and-Forward
Intermittent connectivity scenarios supported
Events can be enriched in the mobile application and
forwarded to process pipeline on server
Reliable events are guaranteed using local SQL CE
Events can be batched
Logical grouping, efficient network usage
Forwarding Events to Server
How to send them to backend systems through BizTalk Server
// Construct a new Server Connector specifying the
// BizTalk RFID Server name and port
RfidServerConnector serverConnector = new
RfidServerConnector(serverName, serverPort);
// Initialize the object; this also automatically
// enables Remote Management from BizTalk RFID Server
serverConnector.Initialize();
// Start posting events from mobile to Server!
serverConnector.Post(eventsArray);
Writing New DSPI Provider
How to get events from new event source?
namespace SampleProvider
{
public class SampleProvider : DeviceProvider
{
public override void Init(RfidProviderContext providerContext,
string providerName, PropertyProfile providerInitParameters){}
public override event EventHandler<NotificationEventArgs>
ProviderNotificationEvent;
public override void SetProviderProperty(EntityProperty property){…}
public override void Shutdown(){…}
}
public class SampleDeviceProxy : PhysicalDeviceProxy

public override void Close(){..}
public override event EventHandler<ResponseEventArgs> CmdResponseEvent;
public override DeviceInformation DeviceInformation{…}
