Porting to Windows Embedded CE 6.0

ardu · 2007-07-19, 13:21

I am considering taking on porting to Windows Embedded CE 6.0 (MIPSII based device with dedicated mpeg2&4 decoders), but I am not (fully) aware of the difficulties involved.

Advice, opinions, guidelines will all be greatly appreciated!

Is there anybody who could give some oppinion or suggestion? Is this at all feasible? (with reasonable effort)

Does WIN CE have the ability to use DX 9.0? I think not but I am not sure...

From Mike Hall's blog:

DirectX 9.0c is supported on Windows XP Embedded (it's one of the components in the XP Embedded component tree).

Windows CE supports DirectX closer to the DirectX 8 level, with some CE specific technologies.

So you can't use CE but only Embedded, and then you have to really be carefull only exclude non used part for MP. You can use the search function there are a lot of threads about this...
