Programming Guide

The primary source for this programming guide is a sample that ships with the Windows Portable Devices (WPD) Software Development Kit (SDK). This sample, named WpdApiSample.exe, consists of seven .cpp modules. Six of these modules contain the code that demonstrates 26 tasks that an application can accomplish using the WPD application programming interface (API).

The two exceptions are the topics that describe context menu and property sheet extensions; these topics were not taken from WpdApiSample. They are based on two separate samples. The first is WpdContextMenu—a sample that demonstrates context menu extensions in WPD. The second is WpdPropSheet—a sample that demonstrates property sheet extensions in WPD.

The following sections focus on the tasks accomplished by these samples and explain how each is accomplished using the WPD interfaces and a number of the methods found in these interfaces.
