Re: Extension to Visual Studio 2003 to develop on WM 2005 ?

No, you don't need anything, it just works.



There are some issues though:



1. You will be prompted by WM 5.0 device several times to confirm you want
to run unsigned application. Answer yes to all of them.

2. VS 2003 would be unable to recognize the device and will "install"
separate assemblies instead of CAB file. It will run OK as WM 5.0 has NETCF
V1 SP3 in ROM.

3. If you're using SQL CE, it needs to be installed manually as VS 2003
won't be able to pick the correct CAB as device is unrecognized.

Hi,

I am trying to use Visual Studio 2003 to develop a .Net application on
a Windows Mobile 2005 PDAPhone (not a Smartphone, a PDAPhone)

When I run the app in debug mode,
- the files are transferred to the device
- the wait cursor appears on the device
- the Output window says "Launching application" (or something similar)
- BUT nothing is launched AND Visual Studio goes back to [design] mode
instead of [run] (in the title bar).
- (However, I can run the app on the device by tapping it from the
Explorer, but VS doesn't see it and I can't debug it)

The same project behaves perfectly when I connect to my old PocketPC
2002 device.

I have tried with both ActiveSync 4.0 & 4.1.

Is it possible to debug apps on WM 2005 with Visual Studio 2005?
Do I need to download some plug-in/extension to make Visual Studio 2003
work?

I would like my app to run on both WM 2005, WM 2003, and also if
possible PPC 2002.

Thanks for your help,
Frédéric
