Pocket PC Device Emulation • Behaves like a physical device. • Complete hardware virtual machine. • Uses TCP/IP (default) as the transport protocol to communicate with the host. • Visit http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppc2k2/html/ppc_gapps.aspfor more details. • Facilitates debugging.

  11. Creating a simple application in eVC++with Microsoft Foundation Classes • Start EVC++ by clicking the Start button on your desktop. Then select Programs. • Select Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools and then select eMbedded Visual C++ 3.0. • From the menu bar, select File, and then select New. • From the Projects tab, select WCE Pocket PC MFC AppWizard (.EXE). • Type “DebugSample” (or any name you choose) in the Project Name edit box. • Make sure that all target CPUs you want to support are checked in the CPUs list, especially the Win32 (WCE x86em) item, as shown in Figure 1. • Click OK. • For the sake of this example, leave everything at the default settings. • Click FINISH, and then click OK to create the project.

  12. “Hello World” in eVC++. • Start eMbedded Visual C++. • Select New under File. • In the dialog box select WCE Pocket PC Application and enter the project name: Helloworld. As soon as you click OK, the WCE Pocket PC Application wizard will start. • When the wizard asks you what kind of application you would like to create, select a typical Hello world application. • Tap Finish. The wizard will summarize what it's going to do. As soon as you acknowledge the summary by tapping OK, the wizard generates the sources for your first Hello World application. • Make sure that Win32 (WCE x86em) Debug and Pocket PC Emulation are selected in the Windows CE Configuration toolbar. • Now tap the Rebuild All button to create your new application. The eMbedded Visual C++ software will now compile your application and download it to the Pocket PC desktop emulator. • Finally, tap the Debug button, and you should see your first Hello World application in the Emulator window.
