Software-based Input Panel Migration (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
This topic contains information about migrating this functionality from earlier versions of Windows Embedded CE.
For general migration information, see Migrating from an Earlier Version of Windows Embedded CE.
Migrating from Versions Before Windows CE .NET 4.2
As of Windows CE .NET 4.2, the Input Method Selection Sample Application (Sipselect) code has been made into an integral part of the shell, in part to support QVGA target devices, which are likely have input methods (IMs).
This means that the Sipselect Catalog item no longer appears in the Catalog or in the Platform Builder Japanese localization Help topics. Therefore SYSGEN_SIPSELECT is not supported in Windows CE .NET 4.2 and later.This functionality is now included in the standard shell.
The Sipselect code is still available in the Samples folder for developers who want to understand how the IMs interact with the SIP.
The SIP icon is moved and is in the taskbar, which is reserved for the shell. The tray is reserved for applications.
