I don't think that you want to do this. You'd be a *lot* better off to have
a flash filesystem, mounted as the root of the filesystem, so that you don't
have to worry about files going away when power is removed. The format of
the object store is not documented, probably changes on a daily basis and,
other than the standard APIs for things like files, etc. doesn't provide a
means to get to the raw data.

I currently working on a project that have requirements to save the
registry andobjectstoreon system power down. I currently
inplemented a power down interrupt that detects when the power key is
pressed by the user and flushes the registry to on board flash.
Unfortunately I have no idea how to flush or save theobjectstoreto
the onboard flash storage device. I know for flushing the registry, I
call the RegFlushKey(HKEY) function a number of times to flush the
full registry, but I don't know of a way to flush or save the
Objectstore. Would anyone have any ideas of where to start or where
to look to get documentation onsavingtheobjectstorefrom within the
WinCE OS image.- Hide quoted text -

Paul T. I don't understand. Are you saying that I need a TRUEFFS
(True Flat File System) mounted on the device.
