Subject: [Winpcap-users] Winpcap port for Windows CE 6.0


Hi all,

I have downloaded the packetCE.zip for windows CE and trying to make it work with \
Windows CE 6.0. I want to know, what version of winpcap is ported to Windows CE 3.0 \
(I mean the source version)

That CE port was developed more than 5 years ago by some WinPcap contributor (not by \
the WinPcap team itself). Unfortunately I don't know which version was used as a \
reference. Consider that  more of a port, it's a complete rewrite of the driver and \
packet.dll for WinCE.  Also
- wpcap.dll was not ported to CE
- packet.dll on CE does not support more than one open per adapter.

And also, how will be the performance of the driver, if i use PacketCE in my windows \
CE device? If I want to move the packetCE to the latest version of winpcap where \
should I start and how tough it is to make it work with the latest version?

I'm not familiar with CE so I don't know exactly how it would take. Consider that the \
driver model on CE is different from Windows NTx. In general in order to port that \
version of WinPcap to the latest version of CE and WinPcap probably requires a lot of \
kernel work --> you need to have some good knowledge of the CE kernel and networking \
stack.

Have a nice day
GV
