I downloaded the msi file for CF 2.0 SP2 and ran it on my XP development
machine with VS2005 and Platform Builder.
The rebuilt CE image is not including CF 2.0 SP2.
cgacutil on the CE device reports CF build number 2.0.6129.0 which is SP1.
How can I get SP2 to include in the CE image?
 
Why would updating the CF on the machine affect PB? You need to install all
of the PB QFEs. If the correct files still aren't present (I honestly don't
know which SP level the QFEs bring you up to) then you need to either
manually patch it or just create your own BIB/REG files for installation.

I don't know the answer to this question. Are you saying that I need a PB
QFE in order to for PB to pick up on the CF SP2 I installed n my development
machine?

How is PB at present determining the need for CF SP1?
 
Of course. You can't expect Platform Builder to grab code from some other
piece of software that you might or might not have installed. Even if it
did, that might not be what you want. Install all of the PB QFEs and you'll
have the latest version of .NET CF 2.0 when you add the .NET CF 2.0
components from the catalog.

For anybody else who may have been watching this thread the procedure to get
the new CF SP2 into PB is as follows.

You need to make sure all the following updates are installed and in the
order shown:

Make sure all instances of VS2005 and PB are shut down before running these
updates. They should install the latest Compact Framework platforms.

cgacutil on the CE device reports CF build number 2.0.7045.0 which is SP2.
