I just installed eVC++ 4.0 and Pocket PC 2003 SDK.
I start the eVC++ for creating new project (WCE MFC AppWizard exe) and it completes all the steps in creating a project via wizard. But when I click "Finish" button on the wizard the IDE just hangs out there. The status bar of IDE shows "Loading class information" and progress bar is full. To close eVC++ I have to kill the process. ( I got Win2K SP4 with no .NET)
When I browse the directory which I choose in the wizard, it displays all the files which were created during the process.
What I am doing wrong?

Thank you. That solved the problem.
Now one more problem. When I compile the project (just dummy)
Test1.exe - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)<br />
Downloading files<br />
The Microsoft ActiveSync connection server has failed.<br />
Please make sure Microsoft ActiveSync is running and retry the download by Rebuild All or Update Remote Output File(s).<br />
Also make sure that you have selected the correct platform.<br />
Failed downloading.
I tried to configure the emulator via "Tools" -> "Configure Platform Manager" menu. I choose "Pocket PC 2003 Emulator" under "Pocket PC 2003". But when I test the emulator via device "Properties" dialog I get "Unable to establish a connection with the device. Please check configuration settings" error.
I choose "Microsoft ActiveSync" under Transport combo (the other items are
KITL Transport and TCP/IP Transport) and "Microsoft ActiveSync" under Startup server combo. ( the other option is "anual Server")
What settings I have to change?
P.S : I don't have the Pocket PC device and I am a complete newbie in eMbedded world.
TIA

Did you install MS ActiveSync and was it running when you tried to download your app to the emulator?

Yes, if you dont mind an older version.
Point your browser to here[^] to grab the latest one [3.7.1].

Thanks for the link. I downloaded and installed it.
Now How do I tell MS ActiveSync that all I need is to connect the Emulator. I don't have Pocket PC device. I tried variety of settings via "Configure Platform Manager". 
When I execute the dummy application(created via wizard) via eVC++ IDE I get this error.
Test2.exe - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)<br />
Downloading files<br />
Timeout: Failed to connect to the device<br />
Failed downloading.
ActiveSync tried to connect during the above mentioned process.

You dont, you set the target and contiguration in evc.
You should have a toolbar where you can select them (WCE Configuration).
For you, it might look something like this:
Test2^ Pocket PC 2003^ Win32 (WCE emulator[or x86]) Debug^ Pocket PC 2003 Emulation^
^ are supposed to look like combobox arrows 
You normally dont have to fiddle with the PlatMan at all, just install the IDE + sp's, SDK's and ActiveSync.

That's the way it shows here, but still no luck.
BTW, the ActiveSync tray icon in Sys Tray is greyed out (shows 'Not Connected' in baloon help) Do I have to set any connection settings there? 
Thanks for your help.

No, it should just be running for it to work.
Do you have any kind of personal firewall running on your box? I know that there's problems with ZoneAlarm, you'll have to allow AS to act as a server (and maybe client too, I dont really remember).
As soon as the "Connecting..." dialog pops up in evc, the emulator should start.
Lets check the PlatMan settings then, since you tried to change those.
My settings here (evc3.0 & ppc 2002, but it should be the same for 4.0) are:
Emulator:
Transport: TCP/IP Transport for WinCE
Startup Server: Emulator Startup Server
Default Device:
Transport: MS AS
Startup Server: MS AS
Try setting yours to the same, if that doesnt work, Ill check my other box that has 4.0 on it.
Other than these steps, the only thing I can think of is that you dont have any valid emulator images for ppc2003, but Im pretty sure those are included in the evc4.0 installation package and installed by default.

Yes..  But few times ZoneAlarm popped up questioning that eVC++ (some EXE trying to connect the Internet). I allowed it to go further.
Here are PlatMan Settings:
POCKET PC 2003:
POCKET PC 2003 Device
Transport : MS AS (other options KITL Transport and TCP/IP Transport for Windows CE)
Startup Server : MS AS (other option Manual Server)
POCKET PC 2003 Emulator
Transport : TCP/IP Transport for Windows CE (other options are KITL Transport and MS AS)
Startup Server : Manual Server (other option MS AS) If I hit 'Test' button, I get the dialog like this:
Please make sure the following files are on the device:
\WINDOWS\tcpipc.dll
\WINDOWS\cemgrc.exe
\WINDOWS\cetlstub.dll
And Launch CEMGRC.EXE with the following cmd line
CEMGRC.EXE /T:TCPIPC.DLL /Q /D:169.254.65.168:4955
But I don't see those files on my machine.
WINDOWS CE .NET Default Platform:
Default Device
Transport : TCP/IP (other options KITL Transport and MS AS)
Startup Server : MS AS (other option Manual Server)

Hmm, weird that you dont have the Emulator Startup Server option for the emulator config. On my other box with evc4.0, the PlatMan settingings for 2003 are identical to the ones for 2002 on my evc3.0 box.
Kant wrote:

These files should be in ..\Windows CE Tools\Common\Platman\target\[devicetype]
But I dont think its possible to use the manual server, since we need to use Remote File Viewer to upload files to the emulator, and that uses the PlatMan settings to connect to the emulator...
My suggestion is that you try and reinstall everything in this order:
MS ActiveSync 3.7
evc4
evc4sp2
eVC40SP2QFE-5308-ArmCompiler
Microsoft Pocket PC 2003 SDK
Or
Check if you can repair the evc4.0 installation and reinstall emulator support

Are you still having problems with this?
I ran across this[^] page today.
Check out the paragraph "Appendix: Recommended Installation Order for Development Tools for Mobile Applications", it might help.

I am getting the following asserting when I attempt to open a document in my application.
"Wincore.cpp, line 571"
Now here is the code snippet that the error is occuring at:
void AFXAPI AfxHookWindowCreate(CWnd* pWnd)<br />
{<br />
_AFX_THREAD_STATE* pThreadState = _afxThreadState.GetData();<br />
if (pThreadState->m_pWndInit == pWnd)<br />
return;<br />
<br />
ASSERT(pWnd != NULL);<br />
ASSERT(pWnd->m_hWnd == NULL); <br />
<br />
ASSERT(pThreadState->m_pWndInit == NULL);
pThreadState->m_pWndInit = pWnd;<br />
}<br />
The assertion error is occuring at the line that is in bold italics. This is an application being developed in eVC++ 3.0 under a PPC2002 SDK. I can not figure out when this function is being called. My CDocument::Seralize() is being completed just fine, but sometime between its completion and the begining of my CView::OnDraw() the assertion is occuring. My CView::OnDraw() is completing and the view is being drawn, but the application halts at that point.
How can I debug this and what is this function attempting to do?
When my application first starts up it starts witha blank view if you will with a bmp image drawn in the view. Then the user can either open a previously created document or start a new one. If the user either opens a previous document or starts a new one, everything runs as expected. However, if the user trys to start a new document then cancels part way thru the process, then decides to open a previous document, that is when the assertion occurs. If it would help to give more detailed explanation of what occurs in the starting of a new document I can provide it, I just don't want to be to long if it isn't needed.
Thanks,
-Eric

Is there a possibility that you are calling the CWnd::Create method on an already-created CWnd-derived object?

You can set a breakpoint on that line and inspect the call stack to see where in your code that method was called. Beware that call stack information is not always intiutive.

Joao,
Thanks for the help and the tip. After doing the above I was able to figure out that one of my views was calling this too many times and I was able to fix it in less than five minutes. This bug had been following me around since I started the app a few months ago! Thanks again!

If you check wincore.cpp, you will see that AfxHookWindowCreate is called by CWnd::CreateEx, MFC's workhorse method for creating windows. The function is called just before the API CreateWindowEx function is called. Your assertion happens because the application is asking an already created CWnd-derived object to create its window again. Look for places where this might be happening.
Regards,
João Paulo

Dear developers,
One never knows to what edge freelance development can take you, like it did to me now all desperate to find a database implementation for embedded systems that are not .NET or 0x86 compatible. I have a pure C/C++ portable platform for some sort of programmable terminals, and I need a more or less generic implementation of a simple database, preferably with indexes or some sort of optimization. Any table is deemed to never have more than 1000 records. And the entire database is best residing in a single file. It’s killing me to think that these progressing days I would have to marvel it all on my own like in old times.
One last detail: It would be the nicest implementation with file-access level implemented clearly, like a driver so that I could just insert my own file-access operations that will work for me.
Anyone who has whatever relevant please, throw at me, be endlessly grateful for that.
Regards,
Just one of you.

I must miss something... but I have not managed to send files on the emulator shipped with evc4.
When I launch the Remote File Viewer, I get the following message :"Cannot load device specific files associated with this tool."
And I never found how to map a directory or a drive to my PC from the CE Explorer.
I must be thick... if anybody is enlightened, please help!
Thanks

maybe this helps.
it's a solution for visual studio.NET. but it will probably work for all emulators:

Cheers, that did the trick (and I also found that you could download a better Emulator than the one shipped with evc4++). Thanks!

Hello,
I am trying to install SQL Server CE 2.0 on the emulator. It requires me to copy adocedb30.dll. When I copy the same, it asks my permission to overwrite it as the file already exists in the emulator. The problem is, it is not able to replace it saying the file is in the ROM. Any ideas how this could be resolved ? Also, if I just continue by using the existing adocedb30.dll and continue with registering the dlls using DllRegister.exe, it pops up a message saying all the components of DllRegister.exe could not be found. Could anyone please help me out ?
Thanks and regards,
Amit

Hi,
I am looking to develop .NET enabled handhelds and I'm wondering what I need to start this. I have a PC with .NET Visual Studio installed, a .NET ARM processor device.
Do I need something other than .NET Visual Studio installed? Is there something called the Compact Framework that works with embedded systems?
I've used EVC++ 3.0(Extensively) and 4.0 (once) to develop for HH. Is there an IDE similar to those two where I can choose which processor to compile for or is all I need is .NET Visual Studio.
Thanks for you help. If my question is a little vague I appologize. I'm not sure where to begin with .NET devices.
