kiruba,

S57 driver is not available for Windows CE yet.

What GDAL version do you use?
There are some issues in 1.3.2, so it's recommended to use GDAL from CVS
to build it for Windows CE.

You've likely not configure your environment as described in secton

This is one of the issues I mentioned, so GDAL CVS is recommended.
While GDAL 1.3.2 was releasing, in port for Windows CE functions naming
has changed, the wce_ prefix was changed to wceex_ because of names
clashes with MFC functions.
For Windows CE port, GDAL 1.3.2 should be considered as alpha version.
So, please use GDAL from CVS.
