Hi Everyone,
I'm gonna create an application in c++ that read and write from a pc/sc compliant smart card reader. i found a website that uses Win32 API WinSCard.dll to interact with the smart card reader.

But I'm kind of confuse. I got 2 question here.
1. Is using winscard the only way to interact with smart card reader using c++, if it not, is it a better way?
2. What is ADPU command use for? it seems like most of the example I gone through have this thing. I know it the a protocol, Is it the only way to write something to the smart card? Is there something like .create or createdir kind of API?
