-DBus Daemon for Windows CE/Windows Mobile 6.5
-=============================================
-
-Bugs in upstream for any window version:
-* MoveFileExA < 0 result check bug
-* double dbus_free somewhere I forgot where (check in -ugly)
-* alignment issue
-* CreateProcess process information handle leak
-* _dbus_getsid NULL vs INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE
-* win_account_to_sid
-
-Customisation
-=============
-
-1) At installation, the following registry value should be set to the
-installation directory of the dbus installation (the directory
-containing the bin, etc, share folders):
-
-HKLM\Software\freedesktop\DBus\Install Directory
-
-2) Instead of environment variable DBUS_VERBOSE, use
-HKLM\Software\freedesktop\DBus\Verbose
-
-2) The keyring directory is MYDOCUMENTS\dbus-keyrings, not
-HOMEPATH\.dbus-keyrings.
-
-
-Compilation
-===========
-
-./configure --host=arm-mingw32ce CPPFLAGS=-I/path/to/expat/include LDFLAGS=-L/path/to/expat/lib
-
-A recent version of libtool is required, with this change:
-
-2010-02-28 Pierre Ossman <ossman@ossman.lkpg.cendio.se> (tiny change)
- Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
-
- Fix deplibs check fallback for 64-bit Windows and Windows CE.
- * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_MAGIC_METHOD): Accept file formats
- 'pe-arm-wince' and 'pe-x86-64'. Add note about consistency with ...
- * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_win32_libid): ... the respective
- pattern here; sync pattern from the former.
- * tests/deplibs-mingw.at (deplibs without file command): New
- file, new test.
- * Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Update.
- * NEWS: Update.

-MB vs WCHAR
-===========
-
-Windows CE only supports the Unicode interface, while DBus Daemon uses
-the Multi-Byte interface on Windows by default. The glue code does
-not support multibyte in all cases. In particular, the _mbsrchr
-function is not correctly implemented. It could be correctly
-implemented, or dbus daemon could use the wchar interface more
-consistently on all Windows targets. For now, the Windows CE port
-will only work for filesystems without some weird characters in file
-names. Is this a serious limitation?
-
-
-Known Issues
-============
-
-Autolaunch is broken so far.
-
-Environment variables are faked. Some are punted to the registry, but
-in any case they can not be used reliably for IPC.
-
-The test suite is not ported yet.
-
-dbus-pipe.c:
- * Uses libc file descriptors. Needed for --print-address and
- --print-pid which probably don't work yet.
-
-dbus-sysdeps-win.c:
- * Backtraces have been disabled.
- * _dbus_fd_set_close_on_exec Not supported, maybe we should disable
- the warning.
- * SearchPathA: Uses HKLM\\Software\\freedesktop\\DBus\\Install Directory
- to locate binaries.
