I'm a newbie to the Pocket PC and I'm having a problem
that I haven't been able to figure out.

I've created a simple test app using eVB that utilizes a
third-party ActiveX control. From researching on the
Internet I understand that I need to create an
installation package and I was able to figured out how to
create the CABs, however, I have not been able to figure
out how to actually install the application on the
emulator.

I have searched the Internet and the only stuff I can find
that seems to be relevant indicates that you use the
Application Manager (a.k.a. CEAppMgr.exe) but I do not
have this file on my PC nor is it on the emulator and I
can't find a download for it from Microsoft.

I'm hoping someone can provide me with assistance in
getting the application installed.

Thanks!

Hi,

CeAppMgr.exe is used to install applications only in devices. For installing
the application in the emulator, if u have the source code u can open it in
evb and run it and it will get installed in emulator. for installing the
activex control u have to use the control manager tool provided with pocket
pc 2002 sdk.

Hope this helps..

Hi Girish,

Thanks! I'm sure this will help. At least I can stop
banging my head against my desk because I can't find the
CEAppMgr.exe. :-)

One additional question, can any ActiveX control work on
the PPC or does it have to be specifically developed for
the PPC?

Hi,

Activex controls can be source code compatible. If u r using some APIs or
classes or some code which is not supported in Windows CE u have to look for
alternative code or remove that feature. I hope u get the picture.

And u have to compile the source code again for the hardware being
targetted.

The following article will give u a better idea on how activex controls are
written for pocket pc

Hope that helps...
