[C#][Smarthone 2003 Deployement] How to deploy an app on a smartphone
Hi,
I can test my app on the smartphone emulator but i'm can't download my app on my smartphone. The first thing i try is to browse into my smatphone (like embeded c++ tool : File View)
First step i n try to connect to device using the tool menu
tool>>conect to device>>smartphone 2003 device
But i got an error
"Connection failed : the version of activsync is not supported"
My version is 3.8 i think it is the latest...
And my emVC++ 4.0 tools can browse the smartphone, so embeded c++ tools can do the work but not visual studio 2005.
Is there a stuff like
C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\SMARTPHONE 2003\Tools\spdps.exe /create /device
comand line but for visual studio tools this time ?Second thing,

It is possible to write an application on Windows Mobile 2003 SE with .Net Compact Framework v1, you just need to create a v1 Pocket PC 2003 project.
A pocket PC 2003 project ? in the new project menu i see smartphone 2003>>device application (1.0) so what to do to make my "hello world" running on my real smartphone ?
Hi,
Doing device development with VS 2005 requires that you use ActiveSync 4.0 or later to deploy/debug to an actual device. You can install it from http://download.microsoft.com/download/c/4/5/c45f8f83-6383-43d7-840b-cb9638484e4d/setup.exe
AS 4.0 is required to work with Windows Mobile 5.0 devices and works with all prior versions of Microsoft's mobile devices.
As for David's comment, when we saw "Windows Mobile 2003 SE" we assumed you meant "Pocket PC 2003 SE". That is why he said you just needed to create a Pocket PC 2003 project and select a project type that has "(1.0)" in the name.
If you intend to just create a Smartphone 2003 SE application, then you are right on track by working with a Smartphone 2003 -> Device Application (1.0) project.
By installing ActiveSync 4.0 as mentioned above, you should be able to make your "hello, world" app run on your real smartphone. Please note that if you have not loosened the security settings on your device that you will have to go through several prompts on the device after you start debugging. For information on the security model that devices use, bring up VS 2005 Help, switch to the Index Tab, and in the Look for: box, type "security [device projects], about security".
I hope that helps,

What version of Visual Studio do you have? Did you install some other programs to?
I would like to write a game like "Gaming with cheese" (MSDN).
