Usage

To run the code sample

  1. Navigate to the solution file (*.sln), and double-click it. By default, the solution file is copied to the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6.5.3 DTK\Samples\PocketPC\CPP\win32\memwatcher

    Microsoft Visual Studio launches and loads the solution.

  2. Build the solution (Ctrl+Shift+B).

  3. Deploy the solution (F5).
To use the application

  1. Copy the CAB file to your mobile device and execute it.

  2. From the Startmenu on the mobile device, click Settings> Personal> Today> Items.

  3. Click OK. This causes Windows Mobile to reload all of the Today Screen applications, including Memwatcher.

Remarks

This sample builds as a DLL called Memwatcher.dll, and creates a CAB file called memwatchercab.cab.
