Microsoft provides a sample C++ homescreen plugin solution with the Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone SDK. At least I believe it was installed with the SDK and not seperately. The example is installed at "C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone SDK\Samples\CPP\Win32\Homescreen" on my PC. |
Sortof off topic....
It looks like in the same area of the directory there are VB examples, not of homescreen plugins, though. The one is some sort of message intercepting application... maybe we could use that to create a new text threader app, or a way to have customized alerts per certain messages, or flash the camera light when a message comes in...(someone at qusers made a free copy of pocket light, with the source code downloadable)
