Post by Angela Leu » Mon, 25 Mar 2002 19:06:45



I've finished the eVB program and use the install wizard to make the
package.
However, when I click the setup.exe in CD1 directory, the wizard
prompts out and and ask me to enter the path. However , i cannot
choose the path in pocket pc, what can I put install the programs to
the pocket pc????

btw. can anyone tell me hwo to put different files in different new
directory(the directory created at installion time, by default, the
use dont have hte directory).

One more last question, how can I make a single .exe file for all the
above process?

thx thx a lot

Try my PPCInstall Wizard - it's much easier to use.

And what is your opinion, what should I do, if my program is developed in
eVC++ ?
Unfortunately, I couldn't convert to eVB.... :)

Thx,
Botond

You can create setups for eVc in PPCInstall, it just can't (at this stage
anyway) parse the project file. You'd need to tell it what files to include
in the setup.

I create a dummy evb project, 'compile' it and then create the setup.
In MSDN you will find (but better on the web) some hints as to what the inf
file looks like.

Edit out the 'pointers' to the .vb file to 'point' to your exe.

In the readme.txt file generated by the install wizard, there is the full
command line to cabwiz that
makes the cab files.
When rebuilding, it is up to you to update the source files.

1. HELP PLEASE : Application Install wizard for eVb pocket pc application fails badly

Hi,

I have an eVb(3.0) application and my project type is eVb application for
Pocket PC
and am using Application Install Wizard by selecting tools-remote tools -
app install wizard from eVB.

My application is using s309Picturebox.ocx (a downloadable control from ..)

After 4th step - it gives an error when it asks for the target
processors...It says - "A control used in your embedded vb project
is not registered on this machine.Either this Embedded Visual Basic Project
was not generated on this machine or the processors you chose to target
in step 4 are different from those you chose to target in your project
type."

I have downlaoded s309picturebox(desktop) and s309picturebox(emulator).
I have registered desktop version in c:\winnt\system32 and have done
registration of emulator version by following these steps -

1) downloaded  pocket pc emulator version to desktop and unzip it.
2) bring up remote file viewer
3) add pocket pc emulation connection
4) click on windows in the left pane
5) file->export mfcce300.dll and olece300.dll from c:\Windows CE
Tools\wce300\ms pocket pc\mfc\lib\x86em
6) bring up control manager
7) select pocket pc
8) select pocket pc emulation
9) control->add new control
10) point to the emulator version you unzipped on the desktop.

Am I missing something..?
Why am i not being able to move forward in Application Install Wizard.
I am unable to find a solution to this problem of installation.Please help.

I am eagerly awaiitng for a response...

Thanks a million in advance.

Regards:
-Shikha
