Comparing to VS it looks very complicated, but I got solid
The IDEs for eVC 3, eVC 4, and VC 6 look very similar to me. I've
barely tried VS 2005, so I can't comment on how much it might differ
from the others.
The Win 32 API for CE is mostly a subset of the Win 32 API for "big"
Windows. So basic code is the same.
knowledge in C++, and do recognize a lot from some sample
applications I found. I am most curioze about grapfical part of
the application. Well, anything for a start would be great.
If you haven't done much Windows programming, or at least not much
using C/C++, then I recommend starting with that. Once you are at
least a bit comfortable with C/C++ programming for "big" Windows, you
can switch. The major differences will be UNICODE (heavy bias towards
it for CE) and menus (very different functions). You can learn more
about these by using google to look them up in this newsgroup.
