Re: Running .NET CF 2.0 applications on CE 4.2

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hello Ilya,

thank you for your thoughts. However, although CE 4.2 is not officially
supported from within VS 2005, i am happily deploying .NET 1.1 applications
to my CE 4.2 device. I dont even need debugging functionality.

I simply want to run .net cf 2.0 applications to run on the device. This wasnt
possible as of now - but with the service pack 1 for .net cf 2.0 - as stated
in their release log - it is now possible to deploy cf 2.0 to ce 4.2 devices.
Which in the end works ! But .net cf 2.0 applications dont run due to the
version mismatch.

I dont know if this might be a problem on vs 2005 side, hence that it is
creating a .net cf 2.0 assembly, which should be .net cf 2.0 sp1.

What is the reason having now ce 4.2 support without the ability to
actually deploy my application to the device?

Anymore insights welcome !

Kind regards,
Sascha

There's no support for CE 4.2 in VS 2005, it's just a NETCF runtime. You
should deploy correct NETCF CAB manually.



I would suggest using CE 5.0 project type, this way you should be able to
deploy application (but not NETCF) and debug it on CE 4.2 (except for x86).

However, it's not a guarantee as there's no official support.

Hi there,

waiting for a long time to be able to run CF 2.0 applications on
windows ce 4.2 devices, i was happy to see sp1 of cf 2.0 was
released a month ago.

After initial troubles installing it (need to change the default install
path
from \windows\ to \program files\) the installation went through
successfully.

Now, when i deploy a .net cf 2.0 device application to the device
the application wont run throwing an error of .net version mismatch.

It seems like my vs 2005 doesnt deploy the proper version information
to run on sp1 patched devices.

Anyone ran into this and is able to give a hint?

Kind regards,
Sascha
