About You

< BACK  NEXT >

[oR]

I expect that you are a developer about to start a serious Windows CE application development project for Pocket PC, or an embedded Windows CE developer who needs to write applications to run on a custom device, or perhaps someone who wants to find out more about the innards of Windows CE, or perhaps just plain inquisitive it really doesn't matter. However, to get the most out of the book you will probably need the following experience:

• C and C++ knowledge. Most of the code samples are written using C; a few require C++ specific knowledge.

• Some Windows API programming experience. You should have already written some Windows applications, perhaps on Windows NT, 98, or 2000.

• Experience using a Windows CE device. You should try using a Windows CE device for a while before attempting to write or design applications for a device. You will need to become accustomed to the capabilities, limitations, and different way of doing things.

I hope that after reading this book you will know a lot more about Windows CE programming in particular, and more about programming in general.
