As pointed out on Bryce’s weblog:


Almost none of the APIs exclusive to CE are exposed. This is very disappointing, as Pocket PC for CE.NET isn’t going to happen this year. I’m going to have to learn that PInvoke stuff if Pocket Blog is going to get a spell-checker…

It might be an interesting project to start wrapping some Windows CE specific things in exposed .NET native classes. For example, on the desktop, putting RAPI (Windows CE Remote API) together as a set of framework objects might be really useful. Not to mention the hundreds of native functions that run directly on the Pocket PC with the compact framework.

So, I guess my first project (hopefully will post on Monday or Tuesday) will be a quick object in COM/ATL that wraps the spell checker so Bryce can call it from Embedded Visual Basic for his Pocket Blog project.

Also, if you are looking to do some development work with CE.NET, you need to go and download the newest version of Embedded Visual Tools, version 4.0.
