VS 2005, Windows Mobile 5.0 and Projects

[Markward]

Hello everybody!

I am relatively new to .NET-based development for mobile devices with
Visual Studio 2005 and have some questions:

After installing the Windows Mobile 5.0 emulator images, they can be
selected and started from the Device Emulator Manager. But when I want
to debug my project, only the Windows Mobile 2003 emulators are
presented. Is this because I created the project as a "Windows Mobile
2003"-project, or is something else to be set up?

If it is about the project, what is the best practice to manage a
project, that is supposed to run on WM 2003 and WM 5.0? Create two
projectfiles?

Thanks and Regards,

Markward

Sounds like you just need to change your target platform…
Have you tried right clicking on your project and selecting “Change target
platform†?

If that dosent work, then you might need to use the new project types.? (The
new ones run on both 2003 and WM5)

Stonie.

Okay, my turn to have some trouble with this. I have VS 2005 installed. When
I select a project I can choose "Smart Device\Windows CE 5.0" , I open that
with no problem.

When I attempt to deploy I get a list of PocketPC 2003 emulators, and a
single Windows CE 5.0 instance, but this is not the emulator.

I have installed the Emulator pack with the WM 5.0 images, but they don't
show up in the Device Emulator Manager or let me chose them to deploy to.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
