I am wanting to develop some applications for
windows CE on my pocketpc(mips)

I came across a gcc port for windows CE
so I will probably use that as my compiler

but where can I find a good api reference for windows CE
development? both a GUI api and an api reference
for essential functions.

further, where can I find well written documentation
pertaining to how to use the installer?

so that the program can be installed on
a desktop PC and then have the necessary files transferred
via activesync.

Download and install eVC. It's Help file and associated headers are a
pretty good source of documentation.

Hi,
you can find the syntax and build process of the installtion file in the
Help of the EVC under :
"Microsoft Windows CE"->"Installation and Configuration Guide"->...

There you can learn more about Cab Wizard - tool to create .Cab files. The
cab file can be statred on the device to intall you application. There is
also a free tool which allows you to start the installer on desktop pc
called EzSetup, which puts the .cab file on device and start it there
automatically.
