Arm build for the new Device Emulator

Hi,

Does anyone know how to build an emulator image for the new device emulator,
the ARM one that ships with Visual Studio 2005 (Beta 2)? The 'old' emulator
was x86.

TIA,
- John

There is no way to do that at this time. (at least none outside Microsoft
that is) AFTER the release of VS2005 there will _PROBABLY_ be a release of
support for that in Platform Builder. At what point or if ever that happens
is not known. Perhaps www.MEDC2005.com Vegas will have some announcements of
plans.

Ah ok.

My real aim is to use Compact Framework 2.0 (and hence VS 2005) in our Win
CE 5.0 project that is under development. I have not been able to find a way
to deploy and debug on anything other than the Pocket PC 2003 emulator. I
wondered if it is supposed to be supported in this release. I have read it
should be possible to use a WinCE 5.0 device but I can't get it to work.

Cheers,
- John

To the best of my knowledge it is not supported yet. If you search the CF
groups you will see some more info on that from Daniel Moth I believe.

To my knowledge, there are currently no plans to provide a public BSP for
the ARM Emulator before the next release of Platform Builder.

We would love to do it, but the BSP team is already swamped.

Thanks!

Hi Doug,

Will it be possible, then, to use Visual Studio 2005 with the 4.1 or 5.0 x86
emulators - particularly for Compact Framework testing and debugging? At the
time of writing I have been unable to find a way to get it to work. I have
posted in other newsgroups and been keeping my eye out for how to do it as
I'm sure it possible. Otherwise, the only target VS 2005 will debug is PPC
and we have a custom Win CE 5.0 device.

Incidentally, I did manage to launch an ARM image in the ARM emulator and it
'nearly' worked. I got the UI up but debugging, networking and other things
unsurprisingly didn't work.

Cheers,
- John

Seems unlikely that VS 2005 will work with a 4.1 emulator, since .NET CF 2.0
isn't supported in devices running 4.1.

Right but Windows CE 5.0 images will work in the 4.1 emulator. That is our
development environment for VS 2003 and CF 1.0 at the moment.

Thanks,
- John

Can you publish the specs so someone else can do it? Then you wouldn't need
to!

As I'm sure most of you know already, the ARM Emulator BSP shipped with
Windows Mobile 5.0.

Yeah except there would be some legal issues with basing anything on that
due to NDAs.

Is it possible to get this BSP for Win CE.NET v5.0?

1) There is no Windows CE.NET V5.0 It's just Windows CE V5.0.
2) Not yet there isn't. And from the MS posts on this thread it does not
look like they plan on producing one until the next OS/PB release.
