This text gives programmers the ins and outs of Windows CE programming, including information on how to create Windows CE companion applications to existing Windows applications, as well as how to build new, stand-alone applications. The book covers late-1990s technologies specifically designed to make creating Windows CE applications easy, like the Remote API (RAPI) that programmers can use to synchronize and share information between desktop and Windows CE applications.

Excellent book for jumping into Windows CE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Nick Grattan has done an excellent job of covering the Windows CE 2 programming problems and has created a number of excellent examples. This book ranks in my mind with the classic K & R White Book on C. The reader should keep in mind that you must have the CE Toolkit for C++ ($200 US) as well as a Windows CE PIM running version 2.0 to be able to use this book.Unfortunately the first example doesn't work, but all of the other examples that I have tested have functioned exactly as described. The book suffers from a lack of tight editing on the part of IDG (but this is always the case). The author did a fine job, but one does expect publishing companies to do something such as editing. IDG has finally published a book I found to be useful. The CD shipped with the book did not work correctly with VC++, but the author quickly responded with a fix (24 hours!). Author has quickly responded to emails (that related to the book).
A good start

This book provides a good start for a programmer who is familiar with Visual C++. However, I don't think enough detail was provided for writing database applications. It provides a good starting point but not enough to do the whole job.
