HI_RES_AWARE for VS2005 .NET

[Malc]

Hi does anyone know how to incude the HI_RES_AWARE resource in compact
framework 2.0 executables? I'm trying to do graphics without pixel
doubling, and at the moment I have to use a patched file created by
tweaks2k.net.

Thanks!

Download the Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Resource Kit from MSDN.
Inside of that are a bunch of whitepapers, samples, and a tools called
res2exe. res2exe can inject a resource file into a compiled managed app so
you just need to incorporate this into your build process. The whitepaper
on doing resolution awareness for managed code has more info on how to use
it.

In VS2005 you can choose the target platfrom. i.e. Pocket Pc 2003 SE or
Pocket PC 2003 SE VGA. In the final of 2005, will choosing VGA insert the
resource variable for me?

The plan is that the final VS 2005 will insert the resource into all CF v2
projects.

The "target platform" just let's you choose which emulator is launched when
you run your app.
