Understanding the Information File Format
Device information files (INF) contain scripts, which are used to control hardware
operations. You can use the INF file to add custom applications to the 5020 Start menu,
Desktop, and/or the Auto Run list. In all of these cases, the custom application is added
at the end of the list.
Note: See the Windows CE Programmer’s Guide (ISBN 1-57231-643-8) for essential
information about programming for Windows CE devices.
The 5020 uses the INF file format described in the Windows CE SDK with two
extensions added as optional parameters. A %CE99% substitution string was added that
resolves to the path \WINDOWS\STARTMENU. The following additional parameters
were added to CE Shortcuts format.
[shortcut-list-section]
shortcut-file-name,shortcut-type-flag,target-file/path,[standard-destination-path],[run-
time-arguments],[working-directory],[user-mode],[application-type]
shortcut-file-name
This string identifies the shortcut. It is the application’s description and will show up on
the desktop or appropriate menu.
shortcut-type-flag
This field is retained for consistency with existing CE applications. A zero or empty
represents a shortcut to a file; any non-zero numeric value represents a shortcut to a
folder. Since folders are not supported, all shortcuts to folders are ignored without any
error indications.
