Re: C# Service for Windows CE 6.0 R2



I have a white paper about developing on services.exe up at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446909.aspx. It was only for
CE4-5, there are some differences in CE6 in how the architecture is, though
the gist of it is the same.

The CENet blog also has assorted information -- http://blogs.msdn.com/cenet/

You'll have to find the help that comes with Windows CE Platform Builder.
In the CE5 help, which is what I have on this computer, look under Windows
CE Features | Communication Services and Networking | Servers |
Services.exe.

However, the best documentation is going to be the code for one of the
services that is available to OEMs with Platform Builder. You might
download and install the evaluation version and look in
\WINCE500\PUBLIC\SERVERS\SDK\SAMPLES\FTPD to see what the FTP server looks
like. There are probably a dozen samples in various folders under
\public\servers.

I really hate to ask this but I have been searching on information about
"windows service" for Windows CE and I have yet to find any useful
information. Where can I get information on how to create a Windows CE
service in general? It doesn't matter what language is used. Any
information
would be helpful. I will continue my search.

Thanks you for all your help. I really appreciate it.

That's fine. MSMQ should be OK, as far as I can think. An EXE with no
UI
seems possible.

My objective is to write a service that will monitor some IO points.
This
will not require a "user interface" in the form of a GUI. It will
however
need to have a system interface like MSMQ. You would be able to
communicate
to the service via MSMQ to retrieve the status of the IO. The GPIO
driver
exist we just want to create a "smarter" interface.

No. You could write an application with no user interface, maybe,
and
that
might be enough like a service for you, but you can't host managed
code
DLLs
from native code applications, so you can't write drivers, services,
COM
objects,. etc. in managed code on CE.
