""Inside Windows CE"" offers conceptual frameworks that can help developers understand their design options. Having the ability to pick and choose the smallest set of needed OS modules allows OEMs to use memory efficiently. The book includes a series of real-world case studies of new platforms based on Windows CE to demonstrate its wide-ranging flexibility. This will be a very popular book for developers working with Windows CE.
"Here is the definitive guide to programming the Windows CE API--now in its third edition, with details on how to use Windows CE .NET to design high-performance applications for smart devices"--Resource description page.
In 2010, the Newseum in Washington D.C. finally obtained the suit O. J. Simpson wore in court the day he was acquitted, and it now stands as both an artifactin their STrial of the Century exhibit and a symbol of the American media "s endless hunger for the criminal and the celebrity. This event serves as a launching point for Ishmael Reed "s Juice!, a novelistic commentary on the post-Simpson American media frenzy from one of the most controversial figures in American literature today. Through Paul Blessings ”a censored cartoonist suffering from diabetes ”and his cohorts ”serving as stand-ins for the various mediums of art ”Ishmael Reed argues that since 1994, SO. J. has become a metaphor for things wrong with culture and politics. A lament for the death of print media, the growth of the corporation, and the process of growing old, Juice! serves as a comi-tragedy, chronicling the increased anxieties of Spost-race America.
With the introduction of Windows CE, Microsoft made a bold statement on where it plans to take computing in the future. Microsoft is betting on small, versatile, portable, less expensive computing devices that integrate into existing networks. The chapters cover everything users need to know to get started programming Windows CE applications.
When it comes to network security, many users and administrators are running scared, and justifiably so. The sophistication of attacks against computer systems increases with each new Internet worm.What's the worst an attacker can do to you? You'd better find out, right? That's what Security Warrior teaches you. Based on the principle that the only way to defend yourself is to understand your attacker in depth, Security Warrior reveals how your systems can be attacked. Covering everything from reverse engineering to SQL attacks, and including topics like social engineering, antiforensics, and common attacks against UNIX and Windows systems, this book teaches you to know your enemy and how to be prepared to do battle.Security Warrior places particular emphasis on reverse engineering. RE is a fundamental skill for the administrator, who must be aware of all kinds of malware that can be installed on his machines -- trojaned binaries, "spyware" that looks innocuous but that sends private data back to its creator, and more. This is the only book to discuss reverse engineering for Linux or Windows CE. It's also the only book that shows you how SQL injection works, enabling you to inspect your database and web applications for vulnerability.Security Warrior is the most comprehensive and up-to-date book covering the art of computer war: attacks against computer systems and their defenses. It's often scary, and never comforting. If you're on the front lines, defending your site against attackers, you need this book. On your shelf--and in your hands.
EMbedded Visual Basic: Windows CE and Pocket PC Mobile Applications is an in-depth exploration into eVB's inherent features, and how to use them to solve likely mobile application programming tasks. The reader will be able to write applications tackling a wide array of business problems for Windows CE-powered devices, both customized and for the popular Pocket PC and Handheld PC products. The documentation for eVB is not very strong; this book will help ease the transition into the language, and provide a reference for even more experienced developers.
Step-by-step tutorial teaches the reader how to create fully functioning Windows CE applications. Easy-to-follow text covers topics such as persistent storage, CE mail, debugging, printing and more. CD-ROM included with book.
Windows Embedded Compact 7 is the natural choice for developing sophisticated, small-footprint devices for both consumers and the enterprise. For this latest version, a number of significant enhancements have been made, most notably the ability to run multi-core processors and address more than the 512 MB of memory constraint in previous versions. Using familiar developer tools, Pro Windows Embedded Compact 7 will take you on a deep-dive into device driver development. You’ll learn how to set up your working environment, the tools that you’ll need and how to think about developing for small devices before quickly putting theory into practice and developing your own first driver from the ground up. As you delve deeper into the details of driver development, you’ll learn how to master hardware details, deal with I/O and interrupts, work with networks, and test and debug your drivers ready for deployment—all in the company of an author who's been working with Windows CE for more than a decade. Packed with code samples, Pro Windows Embedded Compact 7 contains everything you'll need to start developing for small footprint devices with confidence.
Handheld PCs are just the start of a whole new generation of communications, entertainment, and mobile computing devices running the Windows CE operating system. This book shows developers how to use their knowledge of C/C++ and the Win32 API to build, debug, and run applications for Windows CE on their current desktop systems. The CD-ROM includes a fully searchable version of the ""Windows CE Win 32 Reference"" and more.
"Raymond Chen is the original raconteur of Windows." --Scott Hanselman, ComputerZen.com "Raymond has been at Microsoft for many years and has seen many nuances of Windows that others could only ever hope to get a glimpse of. With this book, Raymond shares his knowledge, experience, and anecdotal stories, allowing all of us to get a better understanding of the operating system that affects millions of people every day. This book has something for everyone, is a casual read, and I highly recommend it!" --Jeffrey Richter, Author/Consultant, Cofounder of Wintellect "Very interesting read. Raymond tells the inside story of why Windows is the way it is." --Eric Gunnerson, Program Manager, Microsoft Corporation "Absolutely essential reading for understanding the history of Windows, its intricacies and quirks, and why they came about." --Matt Pietrek, MSDN Magazine's Under the Hood Columnist "Raymond Chen has become something of a legend in the software industry, and in this book you'll discover why. From his high-level reminiscences on the design of the Windows Start button to his low-level discussions of GlobalAlloc that only your inner-geek could love, The Old New Thing is a captivating collection of anecdotes that will help you to truly appreciate the difficulty inherent in designing and writing quality software." --Stephen Toub, Technical Editor, MSDN Magazine Why does Windows work the way it does? Why is Shut Down on the Start menu? (And why is there a Start button, anyway?) How can I tap into the dialog loop? Why does the GetWindowText function behave so strangely? Why are registry files called "hives"? Many of Windows' quirks have perfectly logical explanations, rooted in history. Understand them, and you'll be more productive and a lot less frustrated. Raymond Chen--who's spent more than a decade on Microsoft's Windows development team--reveals the "hidden Windows" you need to know. Chen's engaging style, deep insight, and thoughtful humor have made him one of the world's premier technology bloggers. Here he brings together behind-the-scenes explanations, invaluable technical advice, and illuminating anecdotes that bring Windows to life--and help you make the most of it. A few of the things you'll find inside: What vending machines can teach you about effective user interfaces A deeper understanding of window and dialog management Why performance optimization can be so counterintuitive A peek at the underbelly of COM objects and the Visual C++ compiler Key details about backwards compatibility--what Windows does and why Windows program security holes most developers don't know about How to make your program a better Windows citizen
