I have an Windows Embedded Compact v8.00 device installed with build 6247. FYI - This device is an Siemens HMI.
Now I'm looking for the right way to develop applications for this version of Windows. I started trying with Visual Studio 2008, so I build a very simple application with just a useless textbox. After copying the executable to the device I start tried to run the test applications but nothing happens.
After searching the web I found out it's better to install Visual Studio 2015 PRO with an application builder from Microsoft's website.
Is this the right way to do? What else does I need to know when developing applications for Windows Compact 2013?
To create applications for Windows Embedded Compact 2013 you need VS2013 or VS2015 professional with the Application Builder plugin and a valid SDK installed on your PC.
If you develop managed apps you also need to check in the .NET runtime is already part of the image or find a way to deploy and install it permanently on your device (the way to do this may change depending on the device configuration, registry type etc.)

Hi guys I am trying to develop for a Windows Embedded Compact edition 2013 using Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 10. But I have not been able to.
I have installed the Application Builder and still could not find a template in Visual Studio 2013.
Please can anyone help.
Application Builder is just one of the pieces.
Another piece is the SDK that was developed for the target platform. This includes hardware components and drivers (BSP) and software components (what Windows Embedded Compact 2013) options have been installed. Hopefully this has been written for you.
If the SDK hasn't been developed or it needs other drivers or Windows components to be loaded for your project, you will need to install other Windows Embedded Compact 2013 tools.
I am using windows 7 with visual studio 2017. I have some code I want to run on windows CE 4.1. How do I build the code for this version of CE? I see there is mention of a CE build platform 4.0 but can't find a download for it?
It depends on what kind of application do you have. If has been developed with Visual Studio probably you should be able to build it in an old version. VS2008 or VS2005 should still support CE 4. For sure they support CE 5,6 and 7.
It may be that the application has been developed with Embedded Visual C++ 4.0, you may be able to still find a download in MSDN but I've no idea about how it could run on Windows 10, maybe a WinXP virtual machine would be better.
If the application was developed using platform builder and integrated in the OS image you can still find it in MSDN but, again, this is quite an old tool and will probably have issues running on a recent PC.
The only option I see under C# Windows is "Class Library" to create a DLL. But I don't want a dll. I want an EXE (this time). I'm running Windows 7, btw.
If you want an executable, that suggests you don't want a web application which is what the Web Developer Express targets.
Instead, download and install the "Visual Studio Express 2013 For Windows Desktop" version. That will let you create console applications, WinForms apps, WPF apps etc. (Note that there's also a "for Windows" version rather than "for Windows Desktop" - that's for Windows Phone and Windows Store apps.)
Or hey, just skip straight to Visual Studio Community Edition which has it all in one bundle :)
i am new bee in this field. i have a motorola mc70 device.i want to create an application for it in which device scans barcode and than put data of barcode into my sql server database. i have worked in visual studio 2010. now i have a motorola scanner sdk and user guide. but i don't know how to create application for these types of devices.
i have worked in c# so i am familiar with it and i am using sql server database for it.
i don't know where to start?? should i make console application or other type of application.
Can anyone help to sort this out and provide procedure to create application for this device...
Thanks in Advance...
If you're gonna to use .net then you have to get Visual Studio 2008 and download the Windows Mobile SDK. They removed the support for creating Windows Mobile applications in VS 2010 and up.
In Visual Studio 2008 you will find smart device project etc.. And there is also a Emulator for it.
There is other options to create applications for these devices. Like RhoMobile Suite. With it you code HTML5 / CSS3/ Javascript / Ruby etcc. But it is not free.
Developing applications in RhoMobile is free but when deploying it and uses some features will cost.
We have developed a web application in windows using visual studio 2005. Is it possible to deploy that application in linux using crossover. Is it possible to run crystal reports in asp.net using crossover.
I have used wine, and cross over and even mono. But it was not possible for me to develop crystal reports web application in ubuntu.
But I am able to develop windows application using c# with mysql database as backend and have used crystal reports. But it doesn't work for ubuntu
Please look at the below posts for more details:

Yes.
Well, maybe.
You will probably have more luck with Mono than wine, but either way you're looking for pain.
Good luck.
You can now install visual studio code in Linux and compile it there. Microsoft's Visual Studio Code is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with support for Mac, Linux and Windows.
As Shoham mentioned, Microsoft recently released Visual Studio Code, a lightweight, cross platform code editor. However, this doesn't exactly get you all the way to fully deploying .NET code on Ubuntu. In order to do that you also need to install the CoreCLR and the ASP.NET 5. I've been trying to do exactly this in OS X, which should be very similar, but haven't quite gotten it working yet.
