Adding Windows CE as deployment option

[Diane G.]

I have an application developed for the PocketPC. I now want to
deploy it to WindowsCE, but did not originally create the solution to
contain support for WindowsCE deployment. Is there any way to add
WindowCE to an existing PocketPC solution.

Not easily. I always just create a new project and add the existing source
files to it.

Can I have a seperate set of resource files to use for CE vs. Pocket
PC, and switch them in as needed?
Also, is there a #define to use to remove PocketPC only code, such as
InputPanel, at compile time?
Thanks for your help.

For the resource files, if you use two projects, that's simple.

There are no pre-made #defines, but you can easily add a configuration to
the build and use it for conditional compilation.
