Pocket Outlook Object Model (POOM) (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The Pocket Outlook Object Model (POOM) mirrors the Microsoft Office Outlook Object Model, but its scope of functionality is reduced to accommodate the practical constraints of mobile devices. POOM is a COM-based library that provides programmatic access to Outlook Mobile Personal Information Management (PIM) data items and container objects. It provides an object-oriented framework for creating, modifying, and displaying appointment, task, and contact items—and for manipulating the folders that contain them.
For information about the Microsoft Office Outlook Object Model, see this Microsoft Web site.
Note
The set of POOM APIs that ship as part for Windows Embedded CE is also known as POOM1.
