Does anyone know how to implement realization high-precise timer based on GetTickCount or smth. like QueryPerformanceFrequency / QueryPerformanceCount ?

Does anyone and how it looks? :)

P.S. API SetTimer function is inaccurate, you know...

QueryPerformanceFrequency and QueryPerformanceCount are available on PocketPC, but from the docs I get that the OEMs don't necesseraly provide high-resolution performance counters. So you probably want to check whether it's available.

What's about PocketPC 2002 with using GetTickCount method?

Anyway, if somebody use high-resolution timer or just have an ideas how to do that... just reply somewhere. :)

P.S. Maybe it's enough for most to use API SetTimer... though. [/b]

You can use QueryPerformanceCounter, it works fine.
