i wonder how i can create install of my projects, does install include
everything that .net projects requires.
ex:.net framework 1.1 or
i need to install them by myself?
 
Greetings.

I use Inno Setup and ISTool for all of my installations
(http://www.innosetup.org, http://istool.org). It is great. For the
installation piece, pocketpcdn.com has a great article
(http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/creatingsetup.html).

To install to the pocketpc, you need to have the cab files. Just download
the ceappmgr.exe from the pocketpcdn link I gave you above, and include that
in your setup. If you are using VS .NET, just build the cab files (under
Build), then, go to the projects folder/obj/debug and there is file named
your project with a .ini extension. Open it and modify the Provider to be
you or your company. Then, run BuildCab.bat in that folder - your cabs will
be in cab\debug. Finally in setup, just add the cabs, install.ini (file with
setup information) and remember to INCLUDE THE .DAT FILES! I spent a morning
figuring this out - I needed to include the the .DAT files :-). Run
CeAppMgr.exe and you should be good to go!

Let me know either way.

Best,

the framework runtime is not included in setup projects...

just add a new project to your solution and choose "setup and Deployment
projects" "Setup Wizard" ....
