Re: x86 CE SDK

No, that SDK will not work with VS2005. There's no good story for this
situation. You're targeting CE4.2 and VS2005 is *not* designed to do that,
except in one or two very special cases. MS is apparently expecting you to
stick with eVC 4 until you move to CE5.

I have an SDK, but it only has glue for EVC 4.0. Is there a way to make
that SDK work with VS2005? If I could somehow manually create a
devicein VS2005, I could just point the library and include directories
to that SDK.

Install an SDK for a device which targets x86 and it should appear. You
don't target *processors* with your code in Windows CE programs; you
target
*devices*. The SDK for each device tells VS which processors the device
might have and those will be allowed when a program targets that device
SDK.
If your device SDK (Pocket PC, say), does *not* say that the device might
have an x86 in it, as Pocket PC does *not*, that won't be an option.

I have program that works great on ARMV4I CE 4.20, but I'd also like it
to run on an x86 CE 4.20 platform.
How can I get visual studio 2005 to give me that platform as an option?

Thanks,
