I have a couple old games that I used with my old HP Ipaq. Namely Exit Nights written for Windows CE 5. Is there a way to port it to Android, or a CE emulator for windows 7?
I can send the old cab file if anyone wants to look at it.
Thanks,

I need to write an app to run on Windows CE .net 4.2. I would like to get platform builder for Windows CE .net 4.2, but it doesn't seem to be available on the microsoft site. Can someone help me find it?
It is not the .net that was 4.2, it was the version of CE. This appeared as WM 2003 and WM 2003 SE. The .NET compact framework for the machines was 1.0 or 1.1.
To test the app in an emulator use the standalone emulator. Now at version 3.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...AF-12E3-4B2F-A394-356E2C2FB114&displaylang=en
The WM 2003 SE images for it are here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...b5-f2a2-47d7-a41d-825fd68ebb6c&displaylang=en
To write .net 1.0 and 1.1 WM apps you will need VS2003 PRO.
VS 2005 and VS 2008 can be forced to create .net 1.0/1.1 executable images but it's a total pain in the ...., you have to hack the build files to get it to work.
For C++ Win32, AFC or MFC you can use the free version of EVC 4.0

Dont forget to apply SP4 to it after install. (Same page, use the link at the bottom)
Thank you very much for the help!
How about modifying the BSP or kernel, which version of tool would you use for that?
For that you will require the CE 4.2 Platform Builder package. Microsoft pull superceded versions off their site, the current version is for CE 6.0
The evaluation version works fully for six months then you have to licence it.
Search in Google for "CE Platform Builder 4.2". Some non Microsoft sites may have a copy of it, but some of these sites could also be of a rather dubious nature. i.e warez peer-to peer file sharing etc.
The documentation for it can be found here

actually that's what the guy asked for in the first post
Hallo,
I have the question, if VB (not the sdk, only a program) could run on WM 6.5? I know there is a eMbedded runtime, to use VB, but only for the Version WM 3 ... Does anybody know, if VB program run also with these eMbedded runtime and WM 6.5?
Thanks und regards,
Flo
If the program has been written in VB .NET Compact Framework (Visual Studio 2002 onwards), then it should run on your device, without the need for a runtime, as the .NET CF is the 'runtime' for the program. All mobile devices have one version of .NET CF installed in rom on the device. Later versions can be installed. Even if the program was written for an earlier version of .NET CF than that on your device, if the device can JIT compile it successfully against the version installed then it will run. If serious differences exist between the methods used in the program's CF version and the device, then it will report that you will need a later version installing.
The moral of the story here, is keep your app as 'simple' as possible, and it increases the range of devices on which it will run.
A 'runtime' version of VB was used in Embedded Tools Version 3.0 (VB and EVC 3.0), before EVC 4.0 replaced it. It is no longer on Microsoft's website but other copies of it exist on the web if you search for it.
There is no reason why a program written in Embedded Tools 3.0 should not run on WinMo 6.5, though some of the dll 'import' definitions may be getting a bit long in the tooth. Like a lot of previous development environments, it's just been dumped at the side of the road.
Hello everybody,
I am working in a german company where we're still using old iPAQs (iPAQ PE2030) with Windows Mobile 2002 because the application doesn't work on Windows Mobile 2003 or higher.
Now I'm looking for an emulator or an emulator-image for WM2002 for the Microsoft Device Emulator. I can't find any Image of PPC2002 on Google and I hope maybe to find the image here.
It would be nice if there's a solution to get it work, because a reprogram of it will cost thousands of euros.
Thanks in advance,
Patrick
Have a look at post #2 in here.

Embedded Visual Tools 3.0 (C++ and VB) came with an emulator of sorts for WM 2002 SE, which installs with the compiler. It is not a true emulator as such, like those run by Device Emulator Manager, but it is as near as you are going to get. The compilers create special x86 emulator executable versions that the emulator can run, and you can debug.
When you are satisfied with it, switch the compile to release, and it will generate an ARM code executable to run on the device.
The emulator images running under Device Emulator Manager can run ARM code executables, but the EVT emulator can't.
The problem is that you will need the source code for the app to compile it.
I want run cab apps on android but i dont know how i play it. I search a lot. Is wm emulator for android or dualboot for android. There is only for wm not for android. And is some disk image for bochs or qemu emulator?
Hello I am planning to buy an Asus device with Windows 8.1 RT, the problem is that I want to run an application which use Java. It seems that Java does not run in Windows 8 RT, is there some way around?
thanks
IKVM (it's a .NET-based Java runtime) works on RT if you "jailbreak" the OS, but there's no publicly available jailbreak for 8.1 yet. On 8.0 it might work, though. You could try running your program through IKVM on "normal" Windows to test its compatibility (which isn't perfect, though most pure-Java apps will run).
How limited is Windows RT to install any kind of 32bits based software?
Thanks

You're more or less safe to assume that any desktop program you find will /NOT/ install on Windows RT.
I just spent ages writing an incredibly lengthy post explaining why certain programs will or will not run on RT and other options only to get a gateway error when posting and losing all that I typed.
Nethams post sums it up nicely. If it won't run under IKVM or isn't in the list of desktop applications for RT on this forum, nope, not gonna run.
