Asynchronous Pluggable Protocols in Pocket IE?

[Razvan Dragomirescu]

Hello everyone,

I've been Googling for a solution for implementing Asynchronous Pluggable
Protocols (APP) for Pocket IE. What I want to achieve is a callback to my
application whenever the user clicks on a link that looks like
customprefix://some_data_here . I've found a few samples for the .NET
Framework, but not for .NET CF.

Can this be done for Pocket IE and if the answer is yes, how?

Thank you,
Razvan

I believe that the answer for PIE is no. IE 6, as available in some Windows
CE.NET 4.2 devices which are not Pocket PCs has that capability. You set
the registry up, just as indicated for the desktop, and, when you click a
link of the appropriate form, the URL from the link is passed on the command
line.
