I'm having problems even running a simple "smart device
application" built in visual basic .net on our target
device, which is SH3 on Windows CE. I will explain step by
step the procedures I take:
In Visual Studio .net 2003 , i go to File -> New Project.
Then i select Visual Basic Project Types, and choose Smart
Device Application Template, i name the project "tester".
I click Ok, and the Smart Device Application Wizard
starts. I select Windows CE platform, and Windows
Application Project and click OK. Visual Studio then
creates the workspace with a blank form. I build the
application by going to Build -> Build tester. Then i
build the cab file by going to Build -> Build Cab File.
This creates a Cab file called tester_WCE4.SH3.CAB along
with other cab files for other processors. I also see
there is a Cab file called netcf.all.wce4.sh3.cab that
will need to be installed on the device to install
the .net compact framework before installing my
application cab file.
In Platform Builder 4.1, I add these components to my
platform in order for the .net compact frame work to work.
C++ Exception Handling-SYSGEN_CPP_SEH.
Cryptography Services (CryptoAPI)-SYSGEN_CRYPTO.
Windows Internet Services-SYSGEN_WININET.
Pocket Internet Explorer HTMLView (WEBVIEW)-
SYSGEN_WEBVIEW.
..NET Compact Framework 1.0
I build and download my windows CE os image to my device
and I use the Remote File Viewer to send over the
netcf.all.wce4.sh3.cab and tester_WCE4.SH3.CAB files to
the device. I run the netcf.all.wce4.sh3.cab file first
and get an error message in platform builder on the
desktop computer saying it needs the path for ".net
compact framework .dll" I click Cancel and it continues to
install and finishes. Then when i run the
tester_WCE4.SH3.CAB file it gives me another error message
in platform builder saying it needs the path
for "tester.dll" I click Cancel and then it gives me
another message in plaform builder saying it needs the
path for "heap.c". I click Cancel again and it continues
to install. half way though installing, it locks up
windows CE, and i must reboot.
Anyone have any idea what i'm going wrong?
