Windows CE 3.0: Application Programming offers comprehensive, code-rich coverage of CE networking, communications, database access, desktop interoperability, COM/ActiveX, mail store and messaging, power management -- everything you need to know to build world-class Windows CE 3.0 apps! Nick Gratten and Marshall Brain deliver extensive code examples throughout -- as well as great tips for leveraging your existing Visual C++ expertise. Master CE 3.0 file access and directories; processes and threads; and using ActiveSync to synchronizing PDAs and desktops.
