Publish/Subscribe Infrastructure (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

The Publish/Subscribe infrastructure (Pub/Sub) enables you to create a Windows CE–based dynamic-link library (DLL) that publishes data streams to multiple applications on a Windows-based desktop platform. It provides a generic control mechanism for communication between publisher and subscriber. You can write your own publisher to broadcast data to multiple clients on the desktop, or you can use an existing publisher, such as the Celog.lib file. Celog.lib is a library that links to the operating system (OS) on the target device and collects data related to system events when they occur. Celog.lib also records such kernel events as memory allocation. For more information, see Event Tracking.

You can build an application that uses Celog.lib data transmitted over Pub/Sub. For example, the Remote Kernel Tracker application displays processes, threads, and events on a target device published by Celog over Pub/Sub.

Pub/Sub does not require a customized OS. It allows connections from a single desktop computer to multiple Windows CE–based devices.
