Building Offline Mobile Applications for Windows CE: a Tutorial

This document guides you through the entire offline mobile application implementation process using a sample Pocket PC application. The sample Pocket PC application enables you to create, deploy, administer and use a Pocket PC Windows CE application.

The sample Pocket PC application is based on typical activities of delivery personnel in the Transportation and Logistics industry. The day-to-day operations of such personnel involve package pick-up and delivery. A delivery person collects the complete delivery package list and the package delivery destination information for the day before he leaves the dispatch center on his Pocket PC. As the truck driver also carries information related to package pick-up and delivery with him, the delivery person can work offline and update the package pick-up and delivery status on his Pocket PC. Later, he can synchronize his updated information with the central server running in the dispatch center over any wireless network.

This tutorial assumes that the Mobile Server is installed on the same desktop that is used for Pocket PC application development. Before starting the offline mobile application development process, you must ensure that the development computer and the client device meet the requirements specified below.
