IRAPIDevice:IUnknown
This interface represents a connected Microsoft® Windows® CE–based remote device. The interface provides methods for obtaining information about the device and about the connection between the device and desktop. Most importantly, the CreateSession method obtains a reference to an IRAPISession interface that allows the desktop application to make Remote API 2 calls on the remote device.
A reference to this interface can be obtained by using the IRAPIDesktop or the interface.
Note With pre-Windows CE 5.0-based devices, the device object is not invalidated when the device disconnects and reconnects. For this reason, applications should use the IRAPISink:IUnknown interface to receive connect and disconnect notifications and release the existing device object and create a new one accordingly.
