Hi,

I have to create an application for Windows CE. I know that my HMI
(Aplex), CPU:ARM920 and the Windows CE version is 4.2.

In the past, I already create application for Pocket PC using Visual
Studio and C# (.NET) without any problem. It was really easy ! But
actually I don't know how to create it for Windows CE plateform.

What do I need exactly to create a simple "Hello world" application
that may works as a valid Windows CE application on the device ???

From now I've installed these components on my computer :
- Microsft Emulator for Windows CE
- Visual Studio 2005
- Windows CE Tools

Thanks for your help.

Windows CE is the underlying operating system, and you cannot create
an application for it directly. You must build applications for
specific platforms (Pocket PC, Smartphone, etc.), and usually use the
SDK for that platform. I could not find info on your device (I admit I
did not look hard), so I assume it is either a custom or
semi-industrial device. In that case, you really should get the SDK
from the device manufacturer. Or you can try to use the SDK for HPC
Pro (my usual approach), but that might not work with your IDE and
doesn't support C#. You _could_ try the "standard" SDK, but it is
definitely not standard, is usually more bother than it's worth, and
is usually discussed far less kindly than I am here.
