Windows Embedded CE Standard Shell

Windows Embedded CE Standard Shell

The standard shell provides a graphical user interface (GUI) similar to the Windows XP desktop. The primary purpose of the standard shell is to start and run user applications on the target device. This shell includes a desktop with Start menu and taskbar that enables the user to switch between applications, from one window to another. The standard shell also includes a system notification area to display additional information, such as the status of network interfaces and the current system time.

Windows Embedded CE Standard Shell is a required catalog item if you select the Enterprise Terminal design template when creating an OS design project in Visual Studio by using the OS Design Wizard. If you want to clone and customize this shell, you can find the source code in the %_WINCEROOTPublicShellOAKHPC folder. Chapter 1 explains how to clone catalog items and add them to an OS design.
