I have Windows C-Source-Code runing on MS-Win desktop. Now I want to use it
on HP iPAQ with Microsoft Pocket PC 2000 Version 4.20.0, Build 14053 (named
Windows Mobile 2003?)

Do you have some hint for me which compiler tool chain I may use?

Thank you!
Charlie

If you are just looking for the compiler, there is a free c# one that comes
with the .net frameworks. You can copy the compact framework from your
handheld to get started with that. If you are looking for the IDE, you may
need to spend some $$$.

This article was meant specifically for Borland developers trying to use the
compact framework, but it would apply for others as well, if you don't need
an IDE.

Hope that helps,

I do not have C#-code! I was told that old Win-C code (not C# !!) in general
does not compile with any C# tools now. Was this wrong?

If I choose C++ in .net (would be a solution for my classic C code) I have
no smart media device as target. This comes only with the java or C#
preselect.

Hi Karl,

You say your device is Pocket PC 2000 and Windows Mobile 2003 in the same
breath. It can't be both. At any rate if its WM2003 then you need this:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=1DACDB3D-50D1-41B2-A107-FA75AE960856&displaylang=en

You will also need the WM2003 sdk and there is a link to that at the bottom
of the page. If you really have a 2000 device you will need eVC3 and there
is also a link to that on the same page

It couldn't come cheaper, but its a fair sized download.

Cheers
Doug Forster
