Required Recognition APIs

The following list shows the C-style API functions. These functions are logically grouped under four recognizer handles:

• HRECOGNIZER Handle
• HRECOCONTEXT Handle
• HRECOALT Handle
• HRECOWORDLIST Handle

You must include Recapis.h (installed by default in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Tablet PC Platform SDK\Include). Except where noted, your dynamic-link library (DLL) must export all of the API functions, even if you choose to have some of them return E_NOTIMPL.

The following declarations and comments are included in the Recapis.h file.
