Before you can invoke any RAPI functions, you must initialize the underlying communications layer between the host computer and the Windows Embedded CE-based device, which must be connected to the host computer through a cable or a cradle. There are two versions of the RAPI initialization function you can use: CeRapiInit and CeRapiInitEx. CeRapiInit does not return until the connection is made, an error occurs, or another thread calls CeRapiUninit.

CeRapiInitEx works slightly differently. Instead of blocking the calling thread, it returns an event handle to indicate when initialization is complete. Use CeRapiInitEx to avoid blocking a thread inside a call to CeRapiInit. CeRapiInitEx returns immediately and continues initialization until the connection is made, until an error occurs, or until there is a call to CeRapiUninit. When CeRapiInitEx is complete, it sets the event specified in the heRapiInit member of the RAPIINIT structure. After calling CeRapiInitEx, check the return value to determine whether an error occurred. If the call was initially successful, call the MsgWaitForMultipleObjects function to wait for the event handle passed back in the heRapiInit member of the RAPIINIT structure. When the event is set, check the hrRapiInit member of the RAPIINIT structure to determine whether the connection was successful. To shut down or to stop the connection process, call the CeRapiUnInit function.

The following table shows the complete set of Remote API (RAPI) functions.

CeDeleteRecord	Deletes a record from a database.
CeEnumDBVolumes	Enumerates all mounted database volumes and returns the name for each.
CeFindAllDatabases	Retrieves information about all databases of a given type residing on the Windows Embedded CE device. Also, copies information to an array of CEDB_FIND_DATA structures.
CeFindAllFiles	Retrieves information about all files and directories in the given directory of the Windows Embedded CE object store. Also, copies information to an array of CE_FIND_DATA structures.
CeFindClose	Closes the specified search handle. The CeFindFirstFile and CeFindNextFile functions use the search handle to locate files with names that match a specified name.
CeFindFirstDatabase	Opens an enumeration context to enable an application to enumerate all databases in the object store.
CeFindFirstDatabaseEx	Opens an enumeration context for all databases in a database volume.
CeFindFirstFile	Searches a directory for a file whose name matches the specified file name. CeFindFirstFile examines subdirectory names in addition to file names.
CeFindNextDatabase	Retrieves the next database in an enumeration context.
CeFindNextDatabaseEx	Retrieves the next database in an enumeration context.
CeFindNextFile	Continues a file search from a previous call to the CeFindFirstFile function.
CeFlushDBVol	Flushes information from a database volume to permanent storage.
CeGetClassName	Retrieves the name of the class to which the specified window belongs.
CeGetDesktopDeviceCaps	Retrieves device-specific information about a specified device.
CeGetDiskFreeSpaceEx	Retrieves the amount of space on a disk volume on a remote Windows Embedded CE–based device.
CeGetFileAttributes	Returns attributes for a specified file or directory.
CeGetFileSize	Retrieves the size, in bytes, of the specified file.
CeGetFileTime	Retrieves the date and time that a file was created, last accessed, and last modified.
CeGetLastError	Returns the calling thread's last-error code value.
CeGetSpecialFolderPath	Gets the path to a special shell folder.
CeGetStoreInformation	Fills in a STORE_INFORMATION structure with the size of the object store and the amount of free space currently in the object store.
CeGetSystemInfo	Returns information about the current system.
CeGetSystemMetrics	Retrieves the dimensions, widths, and heights of Windows display elements and system configuration settings.
CeGetSystemPowerStatusEx	Retrieves the power status of the system.
CeGetTempPath	Gets the path to the directory designated for temporary files.
CeGetVersionEx	Obtains extended information about the version of the operating system that is currently running.
CeGetWindow	Retrieves the handle to a window that has the specified relationship to the specified window.
CeGetWindowLong	Retrieves information about the specified window. Also retrieves the 32-bit (long) value at the specified offset into the extra window memory of a window.
CeGetWindowText	Copies the text of the specified window's title bar — if it has one — into a buffer. If the specified window is a control, the text of the control is copied.
CeGlobalMemoryStatus	Gets information on the physical and virtual memory of the system.
CeMountDBVol	Issues a mount request for a database volume that contains both data and an integrity log. Also, returns a CEGUID that is the globally unique identifier(GUID) of a mounted database.
CeMoveFile	Renames an existing file or a directory, including all its children.
CeOidGetInfo	Retrieves information about an object in the object store.
CeOidGetInfoEx	Retrieves information about an object in the object store or a mounted database volume.
CeOpenDatabase	Opens an existing database.
CeOpenDatabaseEx	Opens an existing database on any database volume, including mounted databases.
CeQueryInstructionSet	This function queries a Windows Embedded CE-based device to determine whether it supports the specified processor-specific instruction set.
CeRapiFreeBuffer	Frees the memory on the desktop computer allocated by a call to CeFindAllDatabases, CeFindAllFiles, or CeReadRecordProps.
CeRapiGetError	Reports remote API related failures, and can be used to determine whether a call failed due to a failure in the remote API.
CeRapiInit	Attempts to initialize the Windows Embedded CE remote application-programming interface.
CeRapiInitEx	Attempts to initialize the Windows Embedded CE remote application-programming interface and initially returns an event handle.
CeRapiInvoke	Can be used as a general-purpose mechanism to remotely execute a routine.
