Hello

I developed application in NETCF which use large (sdf file has about 15 MB)
database on device. I try test it on Pocket PC 2003 Second Edition, but i
can't change emulator memory. Default this emeulator has 64 MB of memory.
When I launch emulator, it has 28 MB only (Settings->System->Memory). I try
to increase memory (in Visual Studio 2003 - Tools->Options->Device
Tools->Device, by parameters switch in command line, change settings in
registry) but still I have 28 MB memory in emulator. I work on computer with
1,5 GB RAM, and when I launch emulator I have about 1 GB free memory in
Windows XP.

Thanks for your answers.

Sorry, event that will not work for you. AFAIK, you can't overcome 64mb
memory limitation.

According to the MSDN Forums, ~30 MB will always be used for images and
other files and will not be available for use. So if you want 64MB free for
your use (to emulate my Axim x50v, for example), you should set the memory
to 96MB. I did that and everything works okay now.
