Synopsis

This practical guide is designed to get programmers up and running with Windows CE, Microsoft's emerging operating system for handheld PCs and other alternative computing devices. This book helps you learn Windows CE programming by building on your experience with Windows 98 and NT. Although other resources may take a more theoretical approach to Windows CE, The Windows CE Technology Tutorial focuses on the essential topics and practical programming techniques you'll need to create real-world Windows CE applications. By using a sample application that is explored throughout the book, Muench walks you step-by-step through all of Windows CE's major technologies, functions, and capabilities - from the most basic skills through advanced techniques. Making extensive use of COM technology, he shows you how to create an application framework and prototype, work with the file system and registry, program for graphics and sound, design the user interface, and enable printing and connectivity. By the book's end, this sample application is ready for deployment, complete with a redistributable setup. Smaller code snippets are also used to illustrate important techniques and concepts. You will find thorough coverage of such topics as: • Choosing the proper device and installing the available Windows CE development tools • Windows CE application development with Visual C++ andVisual Basic • Creating COM servers and ActiveX controls • Distributed COM and DeviceCOM • The Windows CE registry • ADOCE for database access • Windows CE Internet integration • Adding support for such remote technologies as RAPI, Winsock, infrared communication, and an ActiveSync provider • Full coverage of the Pocket PC In addition, The Windows CE Technology Tutorial offers an overview of Windows CE technology and COM fundamentals.
