Native Interoperability

To do really cool stuff on the SMT5600, sometimes it's necessary to use native code and the P/Invoke functionality. MSDN has some pretty good articles on native interoperability with the .NET Compact Framework.

Here are a select few that interest me:

• Accessing Phone APIS from .NET Compact Framework
• Advanced P/Invoke on the .NET Compact Framework
• An introduction to P/Invoke and marshaling on the .NET Compact Framework
• Creating a P/Invoke Library

For a good introduction into this world, download the sample P/Invoke Library solution and source code for C# and VB. Note however that this code is for Pocket PC 2003, rather than SmartPhone.
