    Mike,

     Great tutorial on native dev with VS2005!  It wraps up and simplifies a bunch of things that I learned through a bit of gnashing of teeth.

     One outstanding question I haven't seen answered anywhere, however, is this:  How do we emulate against a Platform Builder platform we've created?  That is, if I've generated a WinCE image in PB and and SDK, is there some way I can have VS2005 launch and use an emulator that loads that O/S image?  I ask this only because I'm working on an MFC app and while I can do quite a bit of testing by running it on my desktop machine, there's a substantial difference between MFC for CE and for the desktop.

    Mike,

    The managed tutorial has been very helpful up until the point where you changed the target from the Pocket PC 2003 SE emulator to the IPOC target.  I only seem to have the options of a CE Device or other emulators.  Is there a way to load different targets from platform builder into VS2005 or have I missed something in the way I configure VS2005?

    Thanks,

    Hi David,

    Yes, there's one step that is discussed (but not shown) in the video - you need to generate and install an SDK from Platform Builder, take a look at the "Platform | SDK" menu in PB - you can create a new SDK, configure the SDK, and build an SDK - once built you can install the SDK on your VS 2005 development PC and then have a new target to deploy to.
