CF version

[Peter Bladh]

Hi

Since there is a service pack available for CF
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1f62a2a3-7282-4ba9
-b26b-2267e972501d&DisplayLang=en). How do I check ("manually") which one
that's installed on my PDA?

Greetings, Peter

Each version of the Compact Framework is released with a different Win32
File Version number (this is a seperate version number from the Assembly
Version, which should be the same across all releases of the Version 1
Compact Framework, including Service Packs).

In order to see what version you have installed, use File Explorer to
navigate to the \Windows directory, and click the file called CGACUTIL.
You will get a message box showing you the Win32 File Version of the
Compact Framework installed on the device.

RTM = 1.0.2268.0
SP1 = 1.0.3111.0

Hope this helps.

What file does this retrieve the version of? I am looking to check the
version from the Desktop via RAPI, so that I know if the CF needs to be
upgraded to the newer version.
