Hi all!
i need from the desktop, remove an application on the device. There is a
command line to the ceAppMgr that does it?
thx in advance!
 
That's what i found about CeAppMgr command line switches (so i develop my own command line tool)

/report - generates dialog boxes reporting the current install step statu
/askdes
/noaskdes
/SilentInstal

Unfortunately, except for /report none of them appear to work. Perhaps the next version of CeAppMgr will implement this functionality.

The solution will be somewhat different for PPC and Smartphone.

For PPC:
Obtain rapistart utility (part of Windows CE Dev powertoys) from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...D6-1DCC-47AA-AB28-6A2B006EDFE9&displaylang=en

To uninstall an application run the following command:
rapistart "\windows\wceunload.exe" "My Company My App"
where "My Company My App" is the full name of your application as you see it
in the Remove Programs list on the device (or to be more accurate is the
name of the file with .unload exension in the Windows drirectory on the
device)

On the smartphone use RapiConfig tool from SP2003 SDK. Feed it the following
XML document:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="UnInstall">
<characteristic type="Full Application Name">
<parm name="uninstall" value="1" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

The above xml should be placed in a file - say, uninst.xml and the
rapiconfig should be launched like this:
rapiconfig /P uninst.xml
 
/askdest and /noaskdest are not the switches of CeAppMgr but rather of
wceload.exe
SilentInstall and ReportErros are registry values rather than command-line
switches

I can try it to help you to debug it!
