Re: Emulator

If I understand you, you're trying to simulate a Windows CE-based device
where the *built-in* flash 'drive' is bigger than 32MB? Using the "storage
card" method is as close as you're going to get to that. I don't quite see
what the big deal is, though. You CANNOT SUBSTITUTE TESTING ON THE EMULATOR
FOR TESTING ON THE REAL DEVICE, anyway. If you have a real device that
you're targeting and it has 128MB of flash storage, run your test on it;
that's the ONLY way you'll have actually tested the code under real
circumstances.

That is very interesting... which makes me think, why have emulators? I
feel this as a basic requirement, unless I missed the big picture in the
limitation.

If somebody from MS is reading and following the conversation, I think as
Part of SP3 or next release they should make it available to change.

VJ,

As far as I know, based on Barry Bond's comment, 32Mb is a hard limit for
the DeviceEmulator.

I have reset the comptuer, the device (soft/hard).. no use. It just
refuese to go above 32MB. My computer has 30 GB space and is a 2GB memory
machine... I have even re-installed the emulator... Right now the stoarge
card works for me, but iI am really curious to know what is worng here..

Is there a place I can see any emulator logs... that might help me
narrow the problem?

Yes Ginny sure I have 3 devices to test, that is also plenty, but I love
the emulator, so I don't have to carry the device all place, like when i
work from home. Just this one annoying feature...

I just saw this post.. The fixed it?? somebody please help me..!!

VJ,

Did you do a reset on the emulator after you changed the memory size?

I just needed additional space, try some File I/O. I got a storage
card attached i.e set to my local folder and do the File I/O at that
folder. Well right now the storage card is to local folder and its
30GB, that is my free space in computer :-), which is sort of
cheating, but works now. Ideally would like to do without storage
card, but increase the space on the device. I am not receiving any
error message. It just does not go beyond 32MB. It would be really
bad, if I cannot match the emulator size,space to my device size and
space as needed for test. I am just hopping Microsoft has not done a
thing like that. I am just new to this world, so I am still putting
this on me, and I am not able to figure out.

Thanks for your help
VJ

VJ,

What sort of error are you getting? What exactly do you want to
accomplish?

I see the information and Thanks for the information. I changed the
RAM size, from 128 - 256, not helping. Should it be ROM size, but I
have ROM image address only, what does that mean? I am new to
device programing, kindly help

Thanks
VJ

VJ,

In VS 2005 select Tools, Options, Device Tools, Devices. Select
the emulator you're interested in and click Properties, then
Emulator Options.

Is there any I can increase the storage space for a emulator?
