Hi,

Has anyone made any progress on getting .NET CF applications to cleanly
deploy to custom Windows CE.NET-based devices? We have a nice 4.2-based
device on which a given .NET CF application runs fine, but when you deploy
this application to the device the first time, with the Windows CE platform
selected, you get a pop up on the device saying that the application is not
compatible with the device and do you want to continue with installation.
If you say no, it's not deployed. If you say yes, everything continues from
there and works fine.

I *have* built and installed the SDK generated by Platform Builder for the
device (and the eVC part of the SDK works just fine).

Referencing the previous thread primarily between Chris and I,

http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=...up%3Dmicrosoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder.*

has anyone from MS come up with an update to the SDK generator which will
generate a dialog that will work? I guess I could fool around with the
internals of the SDK, but I'd much rather just generate it and have it work.

I've gotten it to work with a 4.1 device reliably using the ARM4T CF and by
just not using any SDK - just the vanilla "Windows CE" device.
 
Huh. Well, I can't live with no SDK, but I'll try some more combinations.

Thanks,
Paul T.
