MSMQ in Windows Mobile-based Pocket PC and Smartphone Devices
The implementation of MSMQ available for Windows Mobile-based devices is similar but not identical to the implementation available to OEMs that build platforms using Windows CE and Platform Builder.
Note The MSMQ documentation has been updated to reflect differences for Windows Mobile-based devices. However, in cases where the other MSMQ documentation differs from the information in this topic, the information in this topic takes precedence.
The following list outlines important notes relevant when considering MSMQ for use with Windows Mobile-based devices:
- MSMQ for use on Windows Mobile-based devices ships in multiple CAB files that each contain some MSMQ functionality. OEMs or application developers can include these CAB files in a new or existing installation, or install them manually, to add MSMQ functionality to a Windows Mobile-based device
- MSMQ can be used with or without a web server on Windows Mobile-based devices. If no web server exists on the target device, only the direct (binary) MSMQ transport can be used. The web server is required to support MSMQ over HTTP.
- MSMQ on Windows Mobile-based devices does not include support for the Message Queuing COM objects provided by mqoa.lib. Instead, use the standard MSMQ C API provided by mq.h and msmqrt.lib.
