Hi Paul,

I thought so myself but then I was told that I was wrong.
Update for Windows XP Embedded with SP1 (831558) .Net Framework 1.1 Component for Windows XP Embedded with SP1

Should be something like:
Update for Windows XP Embedded with SP1 (831558) .Net Framework 1.1 SP1 Component for Windows XP Embedded with SP1

Hi,

I'm working with an HP Compaq T5000. I want to run a C# "Hello World"
executable on the T5000, but I get an "Application could not
intialize" error message. I think this is because the .NET framework
is not present on the T5000?

I have google'd and grep'd and RTFM, but haven't found a solution yet.
I have read about how to put component into an image, but we use
Altiris to manage the T5000s, and I'm not really sure how to get from
the pre-built image we use, to building an image including .NET and
putting that on the T5000.

So my current plan is to add a 48Mb junk file to the image, install
the image to the T5000, delete the 48Mb file to get disk space, then
install the .NET framework as though the T5000 was a regular desktop
XP system.

Is this the right way to do this? It seems like there should be an
easier way. Am I right in thinking HP doesn't include the .NET
framework? Is this due to disk space limitations? Thanks for any
answers or pointers to relevant documentation.

Hi Dave,

I do not understand idea with junk file, but never mind that.

If you don't have registered XP Embedded tools then you won't be able to build your release image even if you had project file.
I don't know if your XP Embedded image contain enough of functionality required to support .Net Framework.

Here are some discussion on .NET topics in this NG, but I don't think that you will find there what you are looking for.

Thanks for the rapid reply. I do have the XP Embedded tools, but I
was hoping to avoid having to figure out how to configure and build an
image for the HP Compaq T5000, which is essentially a desktop PC with
a flash drive.

I have a C# executable that I want to run on the T5000 box. I am able
to copy command.com over to the T5000, and it executes fine. When I
copy over my executable I get a "cannot initialize error". I
understand that the normal route would be to build an OS image with
all required components, but I would prefer to install the .NET
framework directly on the T5000, so that my C# executable will work.
Is this approach reasonable, or do I need to start investigating how
to build an OS image for the T5000?

thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,

I don't know what is contained in HP XPe image that is installed on their devices, so I can't tell you if you can or can not install
..Net Framework.
What can I tell you is that you should use TD and create empty project.
Then add .Net Framework 1.1 component and rebuild all dependencies.

Now do rough check of how many files is missing in HP image beside .Net FW files.

If there are too many files missing then you would need too much effort to put all binaries and registry entries required to make FW
work.

I hope that someone know better this image and that you will get better answer.

Beside try asking HP support on how to add .Net FW.

PS:
If application is simple consider using C++.
