These samples are from the CD which was included with the 4-volume Windows CE Developers Kit book set by Microsoft Press.

About the Code Samples

Most code samples included on this CD were developed with Microsoft Visual C++ version 5.0 and the Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ version 5.0. The Sspi and Crypto samples were developed with Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.0 and the Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 6.0. The code in sample applications is ported for a Handheld PC, but the programming concepts that are presented apply to all Windows CE-based platforms.

Communications sample description

• Tty: Shows how to open, configure, and close a serial communications port and perform read/write operations for a TTY terminal emulation application.
• CeDialer: Shows how to initialize an application's use of TAPI, open a line device, negotiate an API version to use, translate an address into another format, place a call on an opened line device, close an opened line device, and shut down an application�s use of the line abstraction of the TAPI.
• RasConn: Demonstrates how to start a RAS connection, dial entries from the default phone book, and close an active connection.
• Winsock: A Windows Sockets Server and a Windows Sockets Client sample. The Server sample shows how to implement a Windows Sockets TCP stream socket server. The Client sample shows how to implement a Windows Sockets TCP stream socket client.
• IRSock: An Infrared Sockets Server and an Infrared Sockets Client sample. The Server sample shows how to implement an Infrared Sockets server. The Client sample shows how to implement an Infrared Sockets client.
• Multicast: A multicast receiver and a multicast sender sample. The Receive sample shows how to receive an IP multicast datagram. The Send sample shows how to send an IP multicast datagram.
• CeHttp: Demonstrates how to create and submit a HTTP request. The sample requests a default HTML document from a server and displays it along with the HTTP transaction headers.
• Sspi: Shows how to use the Security Support Provider Interface to access common authentication and cryptographic data schemes.
• Crypto: A cryptography encryption and a decryption sample. The Encrypt sample shows how to encrypt data read from a text file. The Decrypt sample shows how to decrypt the file created by the Encrypt sample.

GWES sample description

• CePad: Shows how to register a window class, and how to create such elements as a window, a menu, dialog boxes, and an edit control. It also shows how to open and save a file, and how to search for and replace a text string in an edit control.
• CeGDI: Shows how to create and use graphical device interface (GDI) objects such as pens, brushes, palettes, bitmaps, and regions. It also shows how to enumerate fonts, select a font type, and display some text by using the selected font.
• Cmdband: Shows how to register toolbar and rebar control classes, and create a command band with two toolbars in it.
• Cmdbar: Shows some common buttons on the command bar and how to create, add bitmaps to, and destroy the command bar.
• FileView: Demonstrates how to register tree view and header control classes, and create a tree view control.
• ListView: Demonstrates how to register list view and header control classes, and create a list view control.
• Rebar: Shows how to register the rebar and toolbar control classes, create a rebar with a toolbar and a combo box in it, and move the rebar up or down.
• Toolbar: Shows how to register the toolbar control class, create the toolbar, and add the toolbar ToolTips.
