hello Nitin---


The C++ used in Embedded VC 3.0 is virtually the same as the C++ you are using in the the regular VC++. However, as you are writing code for a device with much more dimunitive resources, you must program much more efficiently. That is something to always keep in mind, as well, if you are doign anything with an interface, you must rememeber that you are dealing with far less real estate on your interface.... Keep in mind that all file manipulation uses WCHAR [big endian] chars. These are the things I had to adjust too. As well there are several sampels available for you here at codeguru: Take a look:
