3 Welcome to wxWindows/CE 2.5.1
4 =================================================
5
6You have downloaded version 2.5.1 of the Windows CE port of
7the wxWindows GUI library. This runs on PocketPC 2002,
8SmartPhone 2002, and Windows CE .NET 4.x.
9
10More information about the wxWindows project as a whole
11can be found at:
12
13 http://www.wxwindows.org
14
15Information about the Windows CE port in particular
16can be found here:

20Supported platforms
21===================
22
23These are the supported platforms at the moment:
24
25- x86 emulator
26- PocketPC (StrongARM)
27
28You can test the library and applications using PocketPC emulator
29and/or Compaq iPAQ or other PDAs using PocketPC
30
31Compiler installation
32=====================
33
34Get the Visual C++ embedded (FREE) from Microsoft website
35 http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/device/embedded/download.asp
36
37You must use Embedded Visual C++ 3.0 or Embedded Visual C++ 4.x.
38
39Install selecting only the two target platforms used:
40
41- WCE x86em (PocketPC emulation)
42- WCE ARM (PocketPC StrongARM)
43
44You can install other targets but you will need
45to create new configurations for them in the
46wxWindows project files.
47
48wxWindows/CE Configuration
49================================
50
51You may wish to customize the following file
52before compiling wxWinCE:
53
54include/wx/msw/wince/setup.h
55
56These are some of the Windows CE-specific settings
57you can adjust.
58
59wxUSE_POCKETPC_UI
60
61 If you are compiling with Windows CE .NET, you may
62 wish to emulate PocketPC behaviour (set it to 1), or
63 take advantage of the greater flexibility of
64 Windows CE .NET (set it to 0).
65 If 0, the PocketPC-specific toolbar class will be
66 used, which uses commandbar to combine the toolbar
67 and menubar in one control. If 1, the normal menubar
68 and toolbar behaviour will be used, as per
69 desktop Windows.
70
71wxUSE_SMARTPHONE
72
73 Set this to 1 if you wish to compile for the SmartPhone
74 platform (with eVC++ 3).
75
76wxWindows/CE Compilation
77================================
78
79Open src/msw/wince/wxWindowsCE.vcp, select an
80ARM or x86 target (or emulator target for eVC++ 4),
81and compile.
82
83Then open samples/minimal/minimalCE.vcp, select an
84ARM, x86 or emulator target, and compile. You can
85use the emulator or real hardware to run the
86sample.
87
88There may be long delays while VC++ computes dependencies, and expect
89to wait a long time for loading and saving the workspace.
90
91To compile using the emulator on eVC++3:
92
93- Open src/msw/wince/wxWindowsCE.vcp, select the
94 WIN32 (WCE x86) Debug Unicode configuration, close the dialog,
95 then select Pocket PC 2002 and Pocket PC 2002 Emulation on the toolbar,
96 and compile.
97
98- Open samples/minimal/minimalCE.vcp, select the
99 WIN32 (WCE x86 Debug) configuration, select Pocket PC 2002 and
100 Pocket PC 2002 Emulation as before, and compile.
101
102To compile using the emulator on eVC++4:
103
104- Open src/msw/wince/wxWindowsCE.vcp, select the
105 WIN32 (WCE Emulator) Debug Unicode configuration, and compile.
106
107- Open samples/minimal/minimalCE.vcp with eCV 4.0, select the
108 WIN32 (WCE emulator) Debug configuration, and compile.
