Hi, I'm using a Mini2440 with Windows CE 6.0 R3. I developed O.S. (with PB 6) and some applications (with VC++ 2005). I can debug my apps with ActiveSync, but I don't find other way to do it. In other platform (over CE 4.2), I debug applications from eVC++ through Ethernet. I can do the same with Remote Tools of VS 2005 and Mini2440, but for debug apps, just with ActiveSync (no other option). Any ideas? Thank you very much. Leo
Debugging without ActiveSync
Hi Leo, Yes you can debug via ethernet but you have to include the corecon files in your build and run cmaccept.exe and conmanclient2.exe on the device. Check out http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms228708%28VS.80%29.aspx Having a fixed IP address for the device is a good idea at least at the start.
Yopo, As Leo stated you can use the Corecon utility, however I have found that you must still have Activesync installed on your development platform. You need to rebuild the OS if you want the Corecon utilities to be installed and start up automatically. You can copy them to the ARM and run them when you need to deploy the application and/or debug. I have had issues with dropping the connection, but don't know if it is related to Corecon, my OS or hardware. John
Hi guys, sorry for delay, I just tested this today... but it didn't work for me, I copied all files requiered, but when I push Connect to Device, it fails: "Connection failed. Device is not ready". I attached a jpg file with device options, and in Bootstrapper just appears ActiveSync option :( Thank you, Leo
Hi, It works! I'm not sure about what I did, probably some restarts, etc, but nothing different from instructions from link... so, thank you very much! See you, Leo
wow I have been struggle with Activesync for months, this is a perfect solution, to bad did not find it sooner !
