Software Demo

[Harsh Trivedi]

Hi,
I am developing application in VS .NET 2003 [c#]. I am using Pocket PC
2003 emulator for the preview. I have made the installer to install the
application on device. This is all working fine.
Now here is the problem, I want to show my application to other person.
I cannot take the device there, and in his laptop there is no VS IDE
installed.

Is there any software available which is equivalent to emulator and I can
install that software on my PC and his PC, install my software in the
software, save the state of the software and sent him the same and request
him to see my software using that saved file?

I have install and try with "Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Emulator
Images for Pocket PC - WWE", it provides list of emulators but when I try to
run my cab file this emulator, it is not working properly. My target device
is Pocket PC 2003 and this is Second Edition.


I am stuck with this, I just want to demo my software to him and I cannot do
this .....

How to sent Demo of my Software without VS IDE, and Pocket PC Device

Pl help.....

Thanks in advace....

Make sure that the CAB file is built for x86 not a ARM or other device
and try again.

First you should be able to run your application on your windows mobile
2003 emulator. If you are able to do so. You need to get windows mobile
2003 SDK installed on other person's machine and then you can run the
emulator in standalone mode using command line. This works without VS
too.

I haven't tried to figure out where the state of emulator is saved
though. May be you can try it and if you succeed share with all of us
here.

I'm not sure about the 2003 emulator but you could

1. Download the Microsoft Device Emulator (available freely separately
from VS)

2. Send the person the .dess saved state file.

Disclaimer - I don't think this is a supported scenario. In fact, this
is probably a gross hack so tell me how this goes (install the
emulator on a different machine and try it out)
