ICcSvcHost (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

This interface provides methods and properties that implement the Core Connectivity Service Host framework.

The Service Host acts as a broker component between client applications and Core Connectivity services such as the following:

• Kernel Download
• Kernel Transport
• Application Download
• Application Transport
• Custom services

The Core Connectivity Service Host is a COM server that enables the creation of services on a per-user basis.

When a client application requests a Core Connectivity service object, such as a Kernel Transport, Service Host caches a copy of the service. In addition, the Service Host manages the lifetime of the service, caching it until the client calls ICcSvcHost::Unlock.

Methods

The following tables show the methods for this interface. The interface inherits the methods for the IUnknown and IDispatch.

The following table shows the methods for the IDispatch interface.

Method	Description
IDispatch::GetIDsOfNames	Maps a single member name and an optional set of parameter names to a corresponding set of integer dispatch identifiers (DISPIDs). These identifiers can then be used on subsequent calls to IDispatch::Invoke.
IDispatch::GetTypeInfo	Retrieves the type information for an object.
IDispatch::GetTypeInfoCount	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces provided by an object, either zero (0) or 1.
IDispatch::Invoke	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.

The following table shows methods for the ICcSvcHost interface.

Method	Description
ICcSvcHost::GetService	Creates a service for a device in a given service category.
ICcSvcHost::Version	Gets the Service Host version.
ICcSvcHost::DisplayServices	Brings up the Target Connectivity Options Dialog Box dialog box.
ICcSvcHost::GetDeviceState	Returns the current state of the device. Supported values are in use, or not in use.
