How to make program auto-run in WINCE without desktop

1. Write a little program (ShellExe.exe) to start the application software (For example: MyApp.exe）and Explorer.exe
(1) Use VS2005 to build a smart device program (Attention: in the setting guide please choose the program type as WINDOWS application program)
(2) Program code as below. (The guide will generate a lot of code， for example， window process function and so on. They are useless. Delete them and keep the head file and WinMain function would be enough)

#define MYAPP_PATH (L"\\Storage Card\\MyApp.exe") //application software path( at SD card，of course you can change the path according to the real situation)

#define MYAPP_STARTUP (L"\\Storage Card\\MyAppStartup.txt") //the file in this path used to identify if the application software started yet. The file should be build in the application software（MyApp.exe）

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance，
                   HINSTANCE hPrevInstance，
                   LPTSTR    lpCmdLine，
                   int       nCmdShow)
{
 PROCESS_INFORMATION processinfo；
 WIN32_FIND_DATA stFindData；
 HANDLE hFile = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE；

 //wait until SD card file load finished
 int nCount = 20； //This value should be big enough. Or it may can’t wait until SD card load file.
 while(nCount--)
 {
  hFile = ::FindFirstFile(MYAPP_PATH， &；stFindData)；
  Sleep(500)；
  if(INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != hFile)
  {
   break；
  }
 }
 //if the file loading overtime， enter into Window Explore， return
 if(0 >；= nCount)
 {
  // start explorer.exe
  CreateProcess(L"\\Windows\\explorer.exe"，NULL，NULL，NULL，NULL，
   CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE，NULL，NULL，NULL，&；processinfo)；
  return 0；
 }
 FindClose(hFile)；

 SHELLEXECUTEINFO ShExeInfo={0}；
 //execute MyApp.exe
 ShExeInfo.cbSize = sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO)；
 ShExeInfo.fMask = SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS；
 ShExeInfo.hwnd = NULL；
 ShExeInfo.lpVerb = NULL；
 ShExeInfo.lpFile = MYAPP_PATH；
 ShExeInfo.lpParameters = L""；
 ShExeInfo.lpDirectory = NULL；
 ShExeInfo.nShow = SW_SHOW；
 ShExeInfo.hInstApp = NULL；
 ShellExecuteEx(&；ShExeInfo)；

 while(1)
 {
  //open the exist file which is build in the application program (MyApp.exe)
  hFile = CreateFile(MYAPP_STARTUP， GENERIC_WRITE， 0， NULL， OPEN_EXISTING， FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL， NULL)；

  // if the file is not exist， that means the application program have not started yet.
  if(hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
  {
   //sleep 10ms
   Sleep(10)；
  }
  else
  {
   // close the file
   CloseHandle(hFile)；
   // delete the file
   DeleteFile(MYAPP_STARTUP)；

   // start explorer.exe
   CreateProcess(L"\\Windows\\explorer.exe"，NULL，NULL，NULL，NULL，
    CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE，NULL，NULL，NULL，&；processinfo)；
   break；
  }
 }
 return 0；
}

2. Modify the regedit
 change:
 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
 "Launch50"="explorer.exe"
 "Depend50"=hex:14，00， 1e，00
 as:
 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
 "Launch50"="ShellExe.exe"
 "Depend50"=hex:14，00， 1e，00

3. Put the content “ ShellExe.exe    $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\ShellExe.exe         NK  S” in the ”FILES” label of files X:\WINCE600\PLATFORM\SMDK2450\CESYSGEN\files\platform.bib

and

C:\WINCE600\PLATFORM\SMDK2450\FILES\platform.bib.

4. Copy the built ShellExe.exe executive file to the system file folder. For example， the “FILES” folder in mini 2440 directory. If it is fast-compile， copy it to the directory: \RelDir\smdk2450_ARMV4I_Release.

5. Now we can start to compile. If you have compiled NK， then can use [generate]->；[Make Run-Time Image] to run fast-compile.

own projects)

   1) outline-size of components

   2) function address-process the according operation by setting the value of the address as 

      function code

   3) DLL profile name-choose the dll profile you want to use (the profile provided by       

customers)

   4) whether use timer-default as don't

   5) the time of timer-the rang is above 100ms,when the last attribution is applicable
