Conclusion

This chapter has taken a look at three different ways of communicating data:

• Using HTTP to communicate data to and from a server through an Internet server

• Using sockets to communicate across a network

• Using IrDA and sockets to communicate between Windows CE and other devices supporting infrared ports

You should note that none of these techniques allows a Windows CE device to communicate through a connection managed by ActiveSync. You should look at the RAPI functions (see Chapter 10) if you need to do this.
