-<p>The control environment packages the interface to the window server and
-provides an environment for creating controls. It is implemented in a single
-class, <xref href="GUID-12A9389D-363B-3F54-857F-89EE0EDCDF40.dita"><apiname>CCoeEnv</apiname></xref>, which encapsulates active objects and an
-active scheduler for receiving events from the window server. Each application
-has exactly one <xref href="GUID-12A9389D-363B-3F54-857F-89EE0EDCDF40.dita"><apiname>CCoeEnv</apiname></xref> object which is stored in Thread
-Local Storage (TLS). </p>
-<p> <xref href="GUID-12A9389D-363B-3F54-857F-89EE0EDCDF40.dita"><apiname>CCoeEnv</apiname></xref> also provides a number of utilities which are
-useful to most applications. These utilities include: </p>

-context, the <keyword>system graphics context</keyword>. This is the standard
-graphics context which is normally used for drawing controls. It may be accessed
-using <codeph>CCoeEnv::SystemGc()</codeph>  but controls should get their
-graphics context using <codeph>CCoeControl::SystemGc()</codeph> rather than
-directly from the environment.  </p> </li>

-a list of the resource files used by the application. Files may be added to
-the list using <codeph>AddResourceFileL()</codeph> and removed using <codeph>DeleteResourceFile()</codeph>. </p> <p>The
-utility functions provided by the control environment read resources and resource
-data from the resource files in its list. </p> <p>A resource file consists
-of a list of resources, each identified by a resource ID. Each resource consists
-of a list of resource values in the form of binary data. The order and lengths
-of the values for each resource type are defined in a resource definition
-(generally stored in a file with an <filepath>.rh</filepath> extension). </p> <p>Reading
-data from a resource file requires two stages: </p> <ul>
-<li id="GUID-ADC4F5E4-5FCA-55FA-AB2A-0B607D9350DD-GENID-1-8-1-6-1-1-4-1-6-1-7-1-6-1-2-4-6-1"><p>read a resource from

-resource using a resource reader </p> </li>
-</ul> <p> <codeph>CCoeEnv</codeph> provides utility functions to perform the
-first of these stages and functions to create resource readers. </p> <p>An
-application's default resource file, one which has the same name as the application,
-is loaded automatically. </p> <p>It should be noted that stage two can be
-omitted if the resource contains only one value, or if it is read into a formatted
-buffer. In both of these cases the resource data can be read straight from
-the buffer. </p> </section>
