Creating Custom XpE Shells

[akhin]

Hi,

I want to implement my own shell for my XpE.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms838335.aspx -> In this
article it describes to create a component from an existing shell. But
how can I implement my custom one ?

Regards

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking. All you need to do is
write a program and them make a shell component from it.

To further Mike's point, any application can be the shell. The shell
component set the default shell for the XPe image. You can also have
different shells for different users -

Thank you very much for your answers. Actually what I look for is a
sample code to create my custom shell. I am a newbie in Microsoft
Embedded Technologies , so perhaps I am asking question in wrong
place. Not sure

What exactly do you want the shell to do?
