SDK not compatible to Standard SDK for Windows CE.NET

hi guys,

I just download eVC++ 4.0 and create a new app to try it out
when i compile is doesn't give me error
but when i build, it give me an error

<QUOTE>
An application targeting a standard SDK for Windows CE .NET and build for the ARMV4I CPU cannot be run on the emulator, you will have to install an SDK that is compatible with standard sdk for Windows CE.net, then target a shadow platform pertaining to SDK
</QUOTE>

How do I solve/troubleshoot this

Thanks.

Hopefully the answer won't come too late.

You should try to use: Win32 (WCE Emulator) Device under your STANDARDSDK.
Don't use Win32 (WCE ArmV4) or Win32 (WCE ArmV4I) or you cannot make your app run in the emulator.


PS:
This is quite ambiguous and seems nowhere in MSDN?

Hi all,

I was able to select the WCE Emulator, but after the build I receive the following message, "emulator for windows ce encountered an unexpected error." This occurs as the emulator is loading, and the emulator does not load.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

I have found in general that it is much better to test on the hardware you are actually going to use. Most of the software I write will not run at all in the emulator but works perfectly on the device it is designed for.

The emulator seems to work ok on very basic stuff especially when there are no SDKs in use but beyond that it has not appeared to be very trust worthy as a test instrument in my experience.

DOH! I did not notice that this was a resurected thread.
