Creating the Provisioning XML for Signed Binary Files

  • Article

To create provisioning XML, you need to complete the following tasks:

  • Convert the root certificate (.cer) to a Base-64 Encode x.509 certificate. See Converting a Root Certificate for more information.

  • Create a provisioning XML document. See Creating a Provisioning XML Document

    Note   An XML provisioning document may not install on a Windows Mobile device if the .cab file containing the document is not signed. You use the Microsoft Authenticode tools to sign .cab files. For information about Microsoft Authenticode tools, see the Authenticode documentation under "Security" in the MSDN library. For information about .cab files, see Application Security.
