Dear List!

I'm being involved in development of an USB device driver for
Windows Mobile 5.

At the moment I stuck at where to start. I've setted up an Acer
N300 with USB Host and also got the simple device driver example
on MSDN running (CE Testkit over ActiveSync). I've also looked at
the sources of the serial device driver - it is pretty informative
- but I'd appreciate any kind of guide or howto on developing an
USB device driver for Windows Mobile 5.

The documentation on MSDN is pretty sparse since I'm missing
several information like which .lib to link against, how to
initialize the USB device, ...

Is there a howto or guide in this topic available?

I don't know if that apply to Windows Mobile (this is a topic that
should not be discussed on a public ng), but on Windows CE you may use
the code of the printer driver as a reference to develop a USB class
driver. If you don't have that inside WM, you can download and install
an evaluation version of CE 5.0 and you will get it under the PUBLIC
\COMMON\OAK\DRIVERS\USB folder.
