Hi,

Using C# & VS2008
I need to provide the .net 2.0 installation .Cab for my Windows Mobile 5
PDA, but I'm having a hard time finding what file to use.

I've searched for previous answeres to this, but maby I'm blind as I can't
seem to find an answare. :)

So if anyone can give me a hint here, I'd be very thankful.

regards,
Leo

Thanks, but running the mentioned file (~24MB) installs .net 2.0 on my
computer and then updates the connected PDA with the required files. I
cannot use this method as we ship our ATEX PDA's w/software to our
customers. Our customers are required to do a Hard Reset of the PDA to make
sure it is empty and triggers our autorun.exe installer (w/ additional
files) to install our software on the PDA.

So basically what I need is the .Cab file required for Windows Mobile 5 for
..Net 2.0?

Please tell me if I misunderstand something here:)

Hi,

I think its located somewhere like this -

C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v2.0\WindowsCE\wce500

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,

Thanks,

In the mentioned folder there are two files:

#1 NETCFv2.wce5.armv4i.cab
#2 NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab

I'm not sure about the difference, but the #2 file seems to do what I what
so far :)

At this point I've only copy/paste'ed .Cab & exe files to the PDA for
testing. Tomorrow I'll build the entire installation and do some final
testing.
We have about 20 ATEX PDA's with Windows Mobile 2003 and 10 ATEX PDA's with
Windows Mobile 5. So my complete installation will include
#1 AutoRun.exe
#2 MyApp for Wm 2003
#3 MyApp for Wm 5
#4 .net 2.0 Wm2003
#5 .net 2.0 Wm 5

With all files available on each PDA, the AutoRun app will have to check for
PDA type and install accordingly.

Thank you both you your help so far, much appriciated.

..wce5 is the version for Windows CE 5.0. .wm is the version for Windows
Mobile.
