Project files for embedded Visual C++ 3.0, 4.0 and 

Visual Studio 2005 can be found in VisualCE.zip

SDL supports GAPI and WinDib output for Windows CE.

GAPI driver supports:

- all possible WinCE devices (Pocket PC, Smartphones, HPC)

  with different orientations of video memory and resolutions.

- 4, 8 and 16 bpp devices

- special handling of 8bpp on 8bpp devices

- VGA mode, you can even switch between VGA and GAPI in runtime

  (between 240x320 and 480x640 for example). On VGA devices you can

  use either GAPI or VGA.

- Landscape mode and automatic rotation of buttons and stylus coordinates.

  To enable landscape mode make width of video screen bigger than height.

  For example: 

    SDL_SetVideoMode(320,240,16,SDL_FULLSCREEN)

- WM2005

- SDL_ListModes

NOTE:

There are several SDL features not available in the WinCE port of SDL.

- DirectX is not yet available
