SQL Server Compact 3.5 runs side-by-side with SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition (3.0/3.1).
Notice the name change, again
SQL Server 3.5 contains some enhancements such as:
1. Timestamp datatype - at last!
2. Transact-SQL enhancements such as:
1. Nested query in FROM clause
2. CROSS APPLY and OUTTER APPLY
3. CASE and DECIMAL
4. SET IDENTITY INSERT
5. TOP
SQL Server Compact 3.5 runs under the .NET Compact Framework 2.0. So although it was released at the same time as Visual Studio 2008 and with Visual Studio 2008, you don't actually need VS 2008 or the .NET CF 3.5 to use it. You can use it within your Visual Studio 2005 projects today if you want to.

I have just started developing some applications for my PDA in C# :shock: - does anyone know where I can get hold of the .net framework for CE :?:
it comes with microsoft .net enterprise edition, but thatll cost u $1500+
im pretty sure you can download it from microsoft, but im not sure if youll get the fancy developement environment youll get if u get it with enterprise edition
enterprise edition also comes with emulators so you can test it on a pc before running it on the pda
hope this helps

I do have Visual Studio.Net and had the framework. Here is the link to information on it:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/prodtechinfo/devtools/netcf/
if you have Visual Studio .NET 2003, then you will have the fancy development tools and it's almost normal coding as if you are coding for Windows PC based program
ms have a prog called microsoft eMbedded visual c++
maybe the newest version have .net support
Hi, I'm an experienced developer (C,C++,C#,Delphi,Java) and I did some stuff with XNA Studio with Visual Studio Express 2008.
What exactly do I need to start developing apps/games for windows mobile smartphones?
Sorry I tried the search but I'm not able to find anything useful, maybe I used the wrong keywords.
Decide what to use! For Windows Mobile you can use C/C++, .Net ( "Compact Framework" ), FreePascal (as you mention Delphi - this is my own favorite), I think there is even a VB for WM.
For C/C++ you will need to get the Windows Mobile SDK, this is available from Microsoft. API is very much like "slimmed down" Win32 API. For .Net, Google "Compact Framework", or ".Net CF SDK" or something similar.
I am not completely sure, but I think you will need commercial version of Visual Studio. As I recall, "express" / free version does not support WinCE / WM compilation (this is probably why you did not find the option to compile for Windows Mobile)
Good luck!
Thanks! I have both Visual Studio 2008 (non express too) and Rad Studio 2009 (delphi 2009) ...
As I want to get into game development, I'd like to have access to the full power of the phone Using Visual Studio with the SDK might be better, because as I've read it comes with a WM6 emulator...
Any ideas on where I can find tutorials, to display graphics on the phone?
I program using VS08 and the SDK with VB. Not doing anything fancy at the moment, but it does come with an emulator. I haven't figured out how to actually deply it on to the device yet tho.
When you deploy or debug the application it should usually give the option to deploy to a device or emulator. The device of course needs to be connected to ActiveSync.
Also theres a port of QT to Windows Mobile, which seems to work but far more tricky to set up and get working that just using .NET CF it seems
HI there,
I would like to start coding for Windows Mobile 6 with Visual Studio 2008. But when I start a new project "Intelligent Device" - I get the picture of a pocket pc with 240*480 px and I can only use the WM 5 emulator.
I already installed the Microsoft WM 6 Prof. SDK, but nothing changed in my Visual Studio 2008 installation.
How can I start coding for VGA and WVGA devices? Could you please help me little out.
I think I fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling VS2008, maybe you can try that? It was a long time ago so I don't really remember, sorry.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
after u create a smart device project, hit project/change target platform and select a WM6 version
hi everyone
i want to programming c++ at HD2
I found in market a programm "esql" and it is for DB it very nice
but I need one for c++
can I find any program for this ??
no one can help me??!!

Your best bet:
Visual Studio 2008
Windows Mobile Professional SDK
ActiveSync / Windows Mobile Device Center.
Free alternative is Embedded Visual C++,but IMHO it needs much more experiences with object programming,but if you understand the principle,it is also good to develop something. Actually,it is designed for old WM2003,but apps developed there are working also under newest WM versions. Additionally to evC++ you do need WM 6.1 SDK with emulators and latest ServicePack for evC++.
Main problem there is,that the emulator for WM5+ doesn't work directly with evC++ and it cannot connect to the device directly via ActiveSync(because since WM5 it is using TCP/IP communication instead of regular serial as before). However,these are minor problems.
HI All,
I developed one application using VS 2008 with 2.5 .NET . Application is working good in my WM6.1 but i am not sure it can run on WM7 without any modification?
I do not have any WM7 set so i can test, i will appreciate if some one can make me clear?
Thank You
It should run fine on WM 6.5 but it will not run on Windows Phone 7, it is a whole different ball game altogether, a complete break from the model used from WM2003 through to WM6.
You will have to download the WM7 SDK over Visual Studio 2010 and rewrite it from scratch.
Is it worth the effort?
WinP 7 apps can be C#... Depending on what app you wrote part of it may be used in 7 but you'll most likely have to at least rewrite the UI.
Can anyone please give me the download for WM7 SDK for Visual Studio 2008?
Thank You
There isn't one. You need VS 2010, an express version of it comes with the SDK at:
