Software installer - Off-topic

Hi,
Does anyone know, how to make a programm for pocket pc without complicated license from microsoft ?
I've made some programs with visual studio .net 2003 professional edition but with the one with the student license. So I can't publicate it
Another problem is, how to make an installer for my program, that i wrote ?
Thanks for any help
Donny

you need to make CAB files.
MS have their cabwizard. Dont know wich what product it is sold.
or use WinCE Cab manager from www.ocpsoftware.com That one at least gives you 15 tries for free . . . . .

suppose you could use ms embedded visual studio
somebody said it was free from ms of cause it dont support .net
another way is to get the GCC compiler
or the free .net compiler for pocketpc's

Convert Windows programs

Sirs,
I have looked on the net and have found nothing about any programs that it is possible to convert windows programs into
Pocket PC programs, preferrably Himalaya 6.1 by C_Shekhar.
Is this possible?
Thanks...
you can not simply convert Windows Programs to PocketPC Applications.
The Himalaya 6.1 ROM by c_shekar IS a complete Operating System for the HTC Himalaya PocketPC Platform, it is NOT a Program for Windows.
you can rewrite it, if you have access to the source code.
yeah a recompile possibly with a few modifications would work in most cases but one would as said require the source
some .net programs run on both pc's and pda's without any recompile
I think you mis understood me Sirs, What im trying to say is, how to convert a Windows program in able for me to install it on my pocket pc currently installed with Mr. C_Shekhar OS.
I know that the source code was intended and designed for a certain operating system and i have to emulate or convert the source code in able for the application be possible to install on a Windows mobile platform OS.
The said program was originally designed for Windows 98SE,ME,2K and XP 32 bits. I would be very thankful if you can assist me on how to convert the program so that it will be compatible with Windows Mobile OS platform.

And they gave you an answer. There is no way to convert or emulate Desktop Windows Apps to Pocket PC. Only if the App is OpenSource, and you have the code, by modifying it, you might create Pocket PC compatible App, out of it. Eventualy, maybe.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362344&highlight=windows+95 for windows
but mind you emulating an os more powerfull is pretty painfull
and a pda 400Mhz cpu is not something you can compare with a 400Mhz pc cpu
pda cpu's on 400mhz is closer to a 100Mhz pc cpu
and with the emulation overhead maybe a 75Mhz cpu

HTC TyTN II Kaiser - C++

Hi,
I'm working on a networking project. Im using the following device:
Platform: HTC TyTN II Kaiser
Operating System: Windows Mobile 6.1
I have a C++ programme that runs on linux in my computer. How can I run the same in this mobile device?
Many thanks

You need to use MS Visual Studio 2005 (or 2008) to compile the C++ program.
Or embedded visual C++.
A list of dev tools for PPC is on the wiki : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Complete list of Development links and resources

Throwing in my 2 cents in. Save yourself the trouble and don't even consider Embedded Visual C++ (4). Stick VS 2005+ and you'll be good.
The free express versions do not support mobile development.

Hi Peter,
Can I please know how to use Visual Studio to run C++ code on a Windows mobile device?
Is there a special version of VS that i need to look for?

This is what you need to know. There are SDKs for Pocket PCs that are built into Visual Studio. The default ones are adequate. Typically, you'll connect to a PDA/PocketPC via ActiveSync. Visual Studio will pick up on this. There are specific mobile properties and options for this.
From that point, it's point and shoot. When you debug an application, it will automatically go over to the Windows CE device. If you're doing .Net it will install a cab for .Net
Thanks again Peter for your reply.
Even though my project is to programme for this HTC device I don't have the device yet. So what I need to do is test it on my laptop.
Is there any Windows Mobile 'simulator' that I can run on my computer and test?
Also I will need to install Visual Studio on this simulator, is it?

Hi Peter,
Please take a look at the above links. Are these any of the ones I should use?
Thanks
You want to get a copy of Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 if you are serious about programming - I got it from my university and the MSDNAA Website which allows students to download selected MS software which is related to my course for free - and being a computer science student they give me VS 08.
But it is available on several torrent websites. Remember I am not recommending nor do I condone illegal downloading of pirated software - I am only providing information for research purposes.
Why do you want it?
Its a complete developement environment - You get everything - Including an emulator to test your programs. You can download plugins, which let you program in other languages (e.g. I have the VB Mobile plugin which allows me to program in VB for mobile devices) - The plugins are free.
Personally, I use it for a large chunk of my programming - as it supports a vast array of programming languages - and it includes built in compilers (I know this sounds obvious, but I have used programming environments which do not contain compilers), Emulators (for testing) and can support alot more with downloadable plugins (obviously you need the SDK).
If your PC is a little old (eg early XP) - get VS05 - but if you have a newer PC (late XP to Vista), get VS08, they both do basically the same thing.
Hope this helps.
Hi again,
Many thanks for your reply
Will this version of VS work for my project? :
Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition (90-day Trial)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...ec-ed72-4a79-8961-25635db0192b&displaylang=en
If it does... then i will install it first in my laptop (which run Win XP Pro) and then I will install the emulator.
This is the emulator right?
Windows Mobile 6 Professional and Standard Software Development Kits Refresh

Looking forward for your support thanks

Developing with J2ME in HTC Diamond

Hi everyone, first post here!
I am trying to write a imple app in J2ME that is able to give me some measure of localization info printed on screen. To my demise, I found out that the Java VM existing in the HTC Diamond (Esmertec) does not support the Location API (JSR179) and not even the typical bluetooth API! I am currently trying to, somehow, access GSM info like CellID, so at least I am able to output something.
Has anyone ever tried to do something like this with the HTC, and could provide some insight, plz?

you're better off making c# or c++ apps for wm
java is best for symbian or android

Java and Bluetooth

Hi everybody,
Basis: I still use 6.1 without any further ROM upgrades than the official ones.
Question: I tried to use a java programm that is supposed to access bluetooth in order to stear a bluetooth device. You might guess it - it did not work. I do get an error message.
Seems as if the build in java version is not capable of accessing the bluetooth part.
Does anybody know, whether newer version will be able to do that or what programm to install in order to get it done.
Appreciate your help

wm don't support java by itself it use what we call a midlet manager to run java
there are many different midlet managers other then what you got default with your x1
you can try others to see if they support it
but personally I would not hold my breath too much java on wm is not as good as on other platforms
