Unable to use web services on localhost from VS2005 emulator
Hi everybody!
I am using web services on my localhost for the Windows CE client application. Everything is working fine with VS.Net 2003 PocketPC 2002 emulator, but when I trying to use the same client application with VS.Net 2005 Pocket PC 2003 emulator, its cannot connect to the server. I already read about this problem on this forum, but I still cannot solve it. I can browse internet on emulator with IE, but not localhost.
Is some solution exist to let it work?
Thanks,
Iouri.

Hi Iouri!
Perhaps you already read this thread about the problems with localhost:

For me requests from the Pocket PC 2003 emulator (Microsoft Device Emulator 1.0 Community Preview) to http://localhost on the desktop PC are not possible. If you can request your Web Service depends on the web server running on your machine and how it is configured. Are you using IIS?
I am using IIS 5.1 and it has IP address, so I use this IP address on emulator, not
http://localhostIn VS 2003 everything working fine and I can browse web services in IE on emulator and client application can use it too.
