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.

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.)
I know my question is a kind of repetitive to this one
However I didn't got good understanding from it. Plus after these many years i may have to take multiple new points into consideration.
Scenario:Our client has around 20 Motorola MC35 devices. They have Windows CE operating system on it. We have to develop an application for it.
I have been googling a lot but not getting answers to;
Can we develop database driven applications for windows CE operating system?
If Yes, What framework to use for it's development. Can we use .Net Compact Framework?
We have Visual Studio 2013. Which project template needs to be installed in VS to do required development?
Which emulator to use?
Links / samples for development
1: yes, you can
2: .NET Compact Framework 3.5 and SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP2
3: You need VS 2008 with Smart Device Development option chosen during install
4: If you install VS 2008, it comes with a CE emulator
We are using that version on Amazon. I'm not sure if there is any good solution to upgrade Windows without reinstalling everything.
Looks like it's not possible to install Microsoft Build Tools 2015 on that Windows version. Can it be "hacked"? This is not a production server so I don't care if it would be not fully secure.
Another workaround I think could be using mono. I installed the latest mono version but build agent doesn't detect it. How to fix it? Will it work if I'm going to run that mono-compiled app on MS .NET? Can mono compiler handle mixed-mode assembly references (we don't need to compile them, just use)?
Or can you suggest anything another?
I'm new to the CE environment, I have to create an application for a mobile computer with a barcode scanne that uses Windows CE 5.0 (motorola mc3000)
I was thinking that I should use Visual Studio 2008 because it seems that neither VS2010 and VS2012 doesn't support Windows CE 5.0 : ETA on Smart Device Projects for Visual Studio 2010
I have never used CE before and I have searched a lot for useful tutorials to help me in my task, but unfortunately it was with no result.
Does any one know any good tutoriel to help me to make a good start knowing that I'm using windows 7 ?
Thanks,
Tutorial for Visual Studio 2003
The tutorial should work for 2003/2005. 2008 probably has support for Windows 6.0 rather than 5.0
The SDK's documentation should include information about accessing the Motorola camera.
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.
