Product Description

Microsoft's intended domination of the OS market for mobile devices has created a void that canny developers are eager to fill. By allowing them to develop and debug Windows CE applications in a Visual C++ environment, the Windows CE Toolkit lets developers get right to work, adapting their best C code to the needs of a different environment.

To get started, you'll need Visual C++ 6.0 Professional or Enterprise Edition. From there, load the Windows CE Toolkit and dive right in. Extensive online documentation helps developers who are unfamiliar with Windows CE grasp the basic and more advanced concepts easily. Users of Windows NT Workstation 4.0 will love the built-in Windows CE emulator; in fact, to get the most efficient use out of the Toolkit, Windows NT practically is essential.

The set includes Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) for Windows CE, APIs, Full Developer Studio integration, and plenty of annotated sample applications to inspire you and help you solve nagging problems. Once you're ready to load your program, the cross-compilers automatically will download your work (including any drivers that you've created) to any Windows CE 2.1 CPU. Then, you can monitor and debug your work easily by using only a serial cable; no extra hardware is required.

Whether you want to personalize your handheld or create the next killer app, the Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 6.0 will let you put it together. --Rob Lightner

Pros:

• Easily develop and debug Windows CE applications in a desktop Visual C++ environment
• Automatically download to Windows CE devices
• Develop drivers as needed

Cons:

• Requires Visual C++ 6.0 Professional or Enterprise Edition
• Windows NT Workstation 4.0 required for desktop Windows CE emulation
