When developing for WinCE, is it possible to compile for DLL's or COM objects?

I don't even know if COM objects exist on WinCE, so sorry if that part of the question makes little sense - still trying to get an overview of available "glue" technology on that platform.

You can compile DLLs as you'd do on Win32.

Regarding COM: I don't know exactly, but it might indeed be possible. Here someone else should answer that ^^

Your frase isn't very clear, so you want to use a COM object or you want to implement one?

Using COM objects should work nearly the same as in Win32, but people do have difficulty using it because we lack adequate information (no-one wrote a tutorial specific for using COM in WinCE in the wiki yet). I personally never use COM in my projects, so I have not much experience with it.

Hello, Uffe!

When developing for WinCE, is it possible to compile for DLL's or COM objects?

You can compile your DLLs as easy as you do under Win32. As for COM-objects, it depends on your task. In general, WinCE supports COM. But firmware of your target device may implement one of several levels (3 or 4 afaik) of COM run-time support. Those levels differ in set of API-function and interfaces implemented.
