Re: Need a good book on CE .Net Compact Framework

I wouldn't say WM using the CF is easy and self explanatory, the platform is
ever changing. There is every need for a good reference to the Dev handbook
(WM) I posted.

I searched for Windows CE books and got a handful back - wasn't difficult:
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/companion/9780735624177/
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Programming-Windows-CE-NET-Core-Reference/dp/0735618844/ref=sr_11_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1214902076&sr=11-1
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Programming-Windows-Pro-Developer-Douglas-Boling/dp/0735614431/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1214902316&sr=8-5
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Building-Powerful-Platforms-Windows-CE/dp/020161636X/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1214902316&sr=8-4

Just to name a few...

Yes i can see that, its more towards WM CF.

I need a book in which Win CE platform specific development tasks are
discussed, including Platform Builder, how to inject your application in the
OS Image to be deployed on the device etc. Develoment in WM CF is pretty much
straight fowrard and there is so much info online that you possibily dont
need a book on that.

I was exploring Win CE tools when i realized that i need a book for myself
and my team to grasp the environment and tools to deploy .net apps on CE.
This title
http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Microsoft-Windows-Third-Reference/dp/0735618844/ref=pd_sim_b_1 is all about eVC++ and merely has a chapter on .Net part.

I'm still looking for a good reference on developing for Win CE.Net.

Thanks anyway.

I think Chris was refering to this book:

I think the book above is targeted more to WM std and pro.

I think you'll be supprised how many people actually are using managed code
now, very few I think are developing from scratch VC++ apps.

Thanks.
is this the title you refered:
http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-NET-Compact-Framework-Reference/dp/0735617252/ref=pd_rhf_f_i_cs_2

What i'm looking to do actually is to deploy Win.Net App on Embedded boards.
as the name suggests, Win CE.Net, there should be a significant weight behind
.Net part of it. but it dosent seem to be the case. You tell me is this a
good idea to deploy .Net App on Win CE.Net? coz eveyone else is doing VC++ on
it.

Thanks,

The MS Press book by Moth, Foot and Wiggley is a great reference. It's not
CE 6.0 specific, but nothing that you'll find is (nor is there a market
large enough to justify trying to write one).
