I am using the graphics client + with ce 3.0 and c++ 3.0. Of course, I want to upgrade my devices to ce.net using the .net compact framework.
What do I need to do. Right now I have only 3 boards, and almost all of the development could be done using VB.net within a week. Is there a certain version of visual studio.net that I need??
Also, I have embedded c++ v4.0. When would I use this instead of C#??
First you will need to upgrade your device's CE image. You can get the new image from our Windows CE Build Selector. We don't currently have a GCPlus image with the Compact Framework included, but we will be releasing one soon. Until then you can either manually install the CF from a distributable CAB or Studio 2003 will push the necessary files down during debugging.
For Smart Device Development, you must use Visual Studio 2003 Professional or better. The Single-language SKUs will not work. For help in connecting Studio to your device, see the new version of our Windows CE Developer's Guide.
eVC 4.0 is used solely for C++ development on CE 4.x devices. C# is also done using Studio 2003.
