Pocket PC Services.

I created a DLL with all the necessary functions exported.
I made the necessary Registry entry in "Services" but the DLL is not getting
loaded during Reboot. I tried this in WM 2005. the device I used is Sprint
6700. Can any body help me in this regard.. I read that the DLL need some
Previlege Certificate to act as a service. From where I can get these
certificate. Please advice..

Does you service work on the emulator when you sign the dll with your
developer cert?

It is called Mobile2Market program.

It is not that costly, if you only have one DLL. But like Yaroslav
suggested, first test it in your emulator using the developer
certificate shipped with the SDK.

Hi ,

I tried as per you suggested but still the dll is not loading as a Service.
I selected the authendication certificate comes along with the SDK. rebuild
the dll made the necessary registry settings. Still not loading the Dll as a
Service.

I wrote an application which made ActivateService() call. Placed the .exe in
startup folder. now the Dll is loading as a Service and working correctly.
Can any one let me know what exactly happening here. I need to load the Dll
as a Service in startup without this programatically registering. Please
coment on this regard, which is going wrong here. First I need to run this in
the emulator.

thanks
S.Kumar
