I really can use some explanations
I am very new to this world, there for my questions may appear stupid, sorry for that.
I didn't do much developing, but i didn't practice a little in the old VS2003 days. there it was very simple, you choose a Pocket PC 2002 Project (i was writting in C#). you finish to build it, then press deploy, see that nice Emulator kicks in and shows you what you program should look like on the real device.
The program i should write is using some code which was written for the PC in C++. there for i must import some DLLs. Among those functions i use some require the usement of HANDLEs. as i understand those are not available in the old framework. so with the aid of the MSDN i understood it will be available in the next version - Compact Framework 2. To make sure, i checked my self and saw that in the Visual 2005 Beta Winday and Visual 2005 beta this featue indeed lays.
Problem is that i can't seem to emulate. i have imported the dlls, the code is correct (i have checked it in PC), but it have many issue with the emulator.
On the Winbay version i try to use the Pocket PC 2003 emulator - it gives me a error not telling me what is it. even if i install a fresh copy and place a button with no code it does that. Should i configure it some how? (the code compiles with no error).
I the last DVD beta2 version (which is official) it claims that is has some issue with the network (it can't connect). i am not interested in connecting anywere yet. were can i configue it not to try to do that. later i will need this option. so disabling it will not help for long.
Now i am not interested in the VS2005 itself. i only need to compact framework. can i use it some how with my old VS2003?
What am i missing? How does this struction works?
how can i upgrade? i install and it works with the next frame work automaticly or some uninstalling is needed?
may i should make an EXE and use another emulator?
what are my options?
thanks!
sorry for the poor English.
