Pocket Outlook Object Model (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

The Pocket Outlook Object Model (POOM) API provides access to Personal Information Manager (PIM) data on Windows Embedded Compact-based devices. It mirrors the desktop version of the Outlook Object Model (OOM) but with a smaller scope of functionality for compact devices.

POOM is a Microsoft Component Object Model (COM)-based library that provides an object oriented framework to use to create, modify, and display IAppointment, ITask, and IContact items, and to manipulate the folders that contain them.

To add POOM to your OS, see Pocket Outlook Object Model Catalog Items and Sysgen Variables.

For reference information, see Pocket Outlook Object Model Reference.

Source code is available at %_WINCEROOT%\public\DataSync\oak.

For information about the desktop version of the OOM, see Outlook Object Model.
