This is the first book I can't wait to write a comment on before I finish reading it completely. I just don't know if it will be the last one.

 

To put it simply, this book can be described in two words: bad, good! Two completely different words fully reflect the full picture of this book.

 

First, it is "bad ". In fact, this really cannot blame the author. It is the publishing house that has made this book too shanty. However, this publishing house was chosen by the author, so it cannot be removed.

 

To what point is this "bad? First of all, the title is not well set. In addition, it is also marked with "Windows CE project development time series". The first thought is like the shoddy design of some publishers, find some authors to join in to form a series of money frauds.

 

Again, the cover design is terrible. It may be to create a series of books of the same series, so this cover is really terrible. To put it bluntly, just like the feeling of using textbooks in college, it directly affects the reader's doubts about the content. Anyone who has been in college knows that textbooks called self-developed by beasts, what is the quality standard.

 

Finally, the paper is poor. Of course, this difference is relative, but it is totally different from that published in blog posts.

Next, let's talk about "good ". Speaking of this, I have a lot of prejudice. I generally seldom buy technical books from domestic writers. The reason is very simple. Everyone knows that too many domestic books translate English documents directly, and then the preface expresses your feelings, so you can directly cheat money in the bookstore. This idea is still true when I hold this book. If it was not a friend, it would have been too late for me to turn over this book, otherwise it would have passed me.

 

This book should be unique in the Windows CE field. Different from others, this book focuses on the underlying BSP, with no words about the application. Although it is about the underlying BSP, a considerable amount of space is the workflow of analyzing the driver source code of Windows CE. The benefits are not required for developers at the underlying layer, but for those who want to understand the Windows CE workflow, there are also many benefits. In this case, we can regard this book as part of the source code analysis guide for Windows ce bsp-so I always think that this book may be called "Windows CE BSP source code analysis.

 

Because this book is too involved in the underlying layer, it is not suitable for beginners. However, if you plan to develop to the bottom layer in the future, this book should be your case. In addition, if you really want to do this, even if you do not need to do so now, we recommend that you start the book as soon as possible-if the data of the publishing house is correct-because the book only prints 3000 copies. It is likely that this book will no longer be available in the market when you find it classic.

I don't know if this book will be published in the second edition in the future. If you have the opportunity, I really hope that the author can change to a new publishing house, and then do a good job of decoration. The title of the book should be loud. With the meaning of the book, there should be no worries about sales. Of course, I also hope that the price will not be too high at that time.
