I am new to programming on Windows CE devices.

I am having problem of deploy my test application to Bluebird BIP-1250 which
run on XScale processor, running WindowsCE 4.2 using Visual Studio 2005.

The Bluebird device kept getting the error message:
"Microsoft .NET CF 2.0 failed to install on your device because the
installation file is not intended for this device."

Each time, I noticed the Visual Studio tried to deploy
"NETCFV2.ppc.armv4.cab" file to the device. Is this the right file to
deploy. I am using ActiveSync 4.1.0

Cheers

Hi!

I am on the same way (VS2005/CF2/CE4.2). CF v2 cannot be deployed to
CE 4.2 machines. CF2 SP1 Beta is the solution - in theory. (I hope, it
is the solution in practise, too)
You have to install CF2SP1b or CF2SP1b patch (for VS2005). However -
VS2005 will not support CE 4.2 deploying.

If you cannot install CF2SP1b to your machines, there are CAB files for
different platforms in Framework SDK folder, you have to install it
manually.

Please try it, but I have to say that I cannot install it successfully.
The right(?) CAB was installed on pocket machine without errors, but my
program based on CF2 cannot be start. (It says wrong CF version.) I'm
trying to find the solution yet.

I think, if CF2SP1b will working on pocket device, we can use "PPC2003
(v2)" application type to deploy with VS2005.

If anyone can help us, please write :-)

Hi,

VS2005 is able to deploy CF1 applications to CE4.2 platform. You have
to choose PPC2003 v1(!) project type.

Yes, it's able. I've just said (because I've read it in many posts),
it's not supported by Microsoft.

That's all.
