Installing on Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition using e-PocketSetup

[David Clegg]

We have an application that was originally designed to target PocketPC
2002 devices, but now also gets deployed to devices running Windows
Mobile 2003 Second Edition. We use e-PocketSetup to generate the CAB
files and ActiveSync installer component.

When the application is installed on the Windows Mobile 2003 device, we
get the "The program you have installed may not display properly..."
warning as specified in the following MSDN article

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwm2k3
/html/screen_orientation_awareness.asp

The article suggests changing the BuildMax value in the [CEDevice]
section of the INF file which cabwiz uses to generate the CAB. Does
anyone here know how to translate that to the e-PocketSetup world?

OK, further investigation would reveal that this dialog is being shown
for the third party CAB files we are deploying, which include SqlCE,
OpenNETCF v1.2, and the .NET CF cab files. So I guess the real issue I
need to address is how to obtain/create versions of these CAB files
which will suppress the message. I'll dig a bit deeper...
