I have an Pocket PC application which is compiled with windows mobile 6 professional SDK.
Now i want the application to work with Windows CE.
What are the procedure to compile it on Windows CE and make it work on Windows CE?
It may sound silly or obvious, but: Build it using the Windows CE SDK (download link).
Step 1: After installing the SDK, create a new Windows CE Project.
Step 2: Take the blank Form1.cs form in the new CE Project and rename it to the Form you use in your old Windows Mobile 6 Project.
Almost done.
Step 3: Now, close Visual Studio, browse to the Windows CE Project Folder, and delete the that form you just renamed.
Step 4: Browse to your Windows Mobile 6 Project Folder. Copy everything except for the
binandobjfolders and the .proj and .sln files to the Windows CE Project Folder.Step 5: Open Visual Studio and the Windows CE Project.
Step 6: Get crazy and hit Run [F5].
This will most likely produce a number of errors. These errors are because you have called a function that is specific to Windows Mobile or it could be because the Windows CE version of the same function requires different parameters.
Step 7: Some things may not be easily ported to Windows CE. For those items, you can start new threads like “How do I do FunctionWM() using Windows CE?” or such.
