Raw Sockets in WinCE 5.0

[am]

Is there support for Raw Sockets in WinCE 5.0?

[am]

To add a little more to that...
Below is some test code.
When it runs, I get an "Invalid System Services" exception at run-time, when
the socket() call is made.

int err = 0;
WORD wVersion;
WSADATA wsaData;

wVersion = MAKEWORD( 2, 2);
err = WSAStartup(wVersion, &wsaData);

if ( err != 0 )
{
DEBUGMSG(TRUE,(TEXT ("ERROR! WSAStartup()!!\r\n")));
}

/* Confirm that the WinSock DLL supports 2.2.*/ if ( LOBYTE(
wsaData.wVersion ) != 2 ||
HIBYTE( wsaData.wVersion ) != 2 ) {
DEBUGMSG(TRUE,(TEXT ("ERROR! No usable Winsock2 DLL found\r\n")));
WSACleanup( );
}
else
{
if ((sockFd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, htons(97))) < 0)
{
DEBUGMSG(TRUE,(TEXT ("ERROR! socket() call failed!!\r\n")));
WSACleanup( );
}
else
{
/* OK to send packet */

Windows CE, yes. Windows CE on your device, maybe not. Are you building
against an SDK for your device? If not, you should be.

I am implementing this in OS level code, running on a target embedded device.

So, id the answer a sure no? There seems to be "architectural support" at
least, going by the APIs in winsock2.h

Without knowing anything about how you are doing this, I can't say.
