+ \title Windows CE - Signing
+ \brief How to sign Qt projects for use with Windows CE.
+
+ \section1 Signing on Windows CE
+
+Windows CE provides a security mechanism to ask the user to confirm
+that they want to use an application/library that is unknown to the
+system. This process gets repeated for each dependency of an
+application, meaning each library the application links to, which is
+not recognized yet.
+
+To simplify this process you can use signatures and certificates. A
+certificate gets installed on the device and each file which is
+signed with the according certificate can be launched without the
+security warning.
+
+If you want to use signatures for your project written in Qt,
+configure provides the \c -signature option. You need to specify the
+location of the .pfx file and qmake adds the signing step to the
+build rules.
+
+If you need to select a separate signature for a specific project,
+or you only want to sign a single project, you can use the
+"SIGNATURE_FILE = foo.pfx" rule inside the project file.
+
+The above described rules apply for command line makefiles as well as
+Visual Studio projects generated by qmake.
+
+Microsoft usually ships development signatures inside the SDK packages.
+You can find them in the Tools subdirectory of the SDK root folder.
+
+Example:
+
+\list
+\o Calling configure with signing enabled:
+\code
+configure.exe -platform win32-msvc2005 -xplatform wincewm50pocket-msvc2005 -signature C:\some\path\SDKSamplePrivDeveloper.pfx
+\endcode
+
+\o Using pro file to specify signature
+\code
+...
+TARGET = foo
+
+wince*: {
+ SIGNATURE_FILE = somepath\customSignature.pfx
+}
+...
+\endcode
+\endlist
