Riassunto

This is the first complete Windows developer's guide to leveraging the power of Windows CE 3.0 and future "Windows-powered" devices. Leading Windows CE developer Chris Muench teaches Windows developers all they need to know to build CE 3.0 applications fast. Start by setting up and mastering the Windows CE 3.0 "Rapier" development environment; then, walk step-by-step through building a robust CE application that utilizes COM components, integrates with Windows 2000 and other Windows desktops, and even provides Internet connectivity. Along the way, developers will learn how to design CE user interfaces, support printing, storage, and remote access; synchronize with desktops via the latest version of ActiveSync; incorporate graphics and audio; even integrate with Pocket Outlook.

Dalla quarta di copertina

"If you want the straight shot on writing code for the hottest information appliances powered by Windows CE, this book is your guiding light. A must for any serious developer of Windows CE-based applications!"
--Scott Henson, Group Manager, Windows CE Developer Evangelism, Microsoft Corporation

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 will 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 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 coverage of such specific topics as:

• Choosing the proper device and installing Windows CE
• Available Windows CE development tools
• Windows CE application development with Visual C++ and Visual Basic
• Creating a COM server and ActiveX control
• Distributed COM and DeviceCOM
• The Windows CE registry
• ADOCE for database access
• Windows CE Internet integration
• Adding support for such remote technologies as RAPI, WinSocks, infrared communication, and an ActiveSync provider

In addition, The Windows CE Technology Tutorial offers an overview of Windows CE technology and COM fundamentals.
