I want to develop a Windows Embedded XP image without a monitor,

I have a application written in Visual Studio 7.0 C++ code running on
windows embedded XP,

Can i debug my application from another computer e.g using Visual
Studio ?

And what components do i have to activate for the Target Desginer in
order to use this feature?

Thanks
 
What is the issue with Licence?

My target has no Screen, keyboard or mouse. So when I copy the files
to my target do I have to pay for an extra visual studio licence ?
 
Gerald,

First you can always use kernel debugger support trough firewire or RS232
(use kd and windbg for remote debugging). Support for this is integrated in
kernel.
But since this is probably too heavy to use for most simple applications
then you can copy files required for network debugging from VS.

You don't need to copy whole visual studio just few MB.
I hope that you are not planning to leave debugger running in your product,
if not then you are ok with VS licenses.

Regards,
Slobodan
