Viewsonic V37

[Ryan Moore]

Has anyone else gotten one of the "Free" Viewsonic V37 Pocket PCs from
Microsoft and tried debugging an app from inside Visual Studio .NET 2003? I
can't make it run becuase I'm connecting via USB...... is it possible to
debug vis usb?

thnx

Stop.
V37 contains Pocket PC 2002.
VS.NET is for Pocket PC 2003 only.
You need to be working with embedded visual c++ 3.0 until Viewsonic
*finally* releases the PPC 2003 upgrade

Ah ha... any idea whether this will be a free upgrade?

This is not true. I'm using VS.NET 2003 to develop apps for my
Viewsoinc V37 w/ PPC 2002 just fine.

Are you using C# or Visual Basic?

Can you debug using the actual device?

thnx

You can step through code at design time before it is deployed to the
device, or emulator. Once it is deployed, then error messages from a
messagebox for eg. sqlceexeptions take over at that point. At that point you
leave debug-land. System error messages are thrown as exceptions from within
the device for file IO errors, IIS authentication or even SQL Server for
authentication, etc.
