WM6 for hermes. Done.

[Bushrod]

I just thought of something. MS is releasing the WM6 SDK for download tomorrow. I wonder if it would be possible to extract the emulator image. I would assume that the emulator image is RTM code...

[schettj]

it's not a hardware emulation, so it's not going to be of any use.

[Bushrod]

Ah. I thought it was ARM hardware emulation.

According to this

http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/...-a-device.aspx

it's ARM emulation. I assumed that it meant that the binaries would be ARM compatible and would run in the emulator and in the device.

Found this. I guess it doesn't mean what I think it means:

Device Emulator 2.0

Emulators have always been an important part of mobile application development, allowing you to test your application without requiring access to a physical device. The more of your testing that you are able to do using the emulator without being required to use a real device, the easier, faster, and less expensively you can work. The Device Emulator 2.0, installed as part of the Windows Mobile 6 SDK, builds on the Device Emulator 1.0 legacy to offer greater fidelity with the real device experience by emulating many new device states and features not previously available. Just as was the case for the Device Emulator 1.0, the Device Emulator 2.0 is a true ARM emulator. As a true ARM emulator, the Device Emulator 2.0 runs the same executable files as a real device thereby eliminating the need to manage separate application executable files for the emulator then are required for a real device. With the Device Emulator 2.0, one set of executables is all you need for both the emulator and real devices.

The Windows Mobile 6 SDK installation process automatically replaces the Device Emulator 1.0 that Visual Studio 2005 installs with the Device Emulator 2.0. As a result, all of your Visual Studio 2005 Windows Mobile project will use the Device Emulator 2.0 and will be able to take advantage of new features and improvements that the Device Emulator 2.0 provides.

i have done my research and since it did not answer my question i asked.

since u r so informed please do tell.

think you mistunderstood. My comment was to fitbryan not you.

I wouldn't touch emulator code for a real device with a 10' pole. No matter what - but it is nice that they finally changed it from x86.

your post was insulting, and added nothing to furthering any development or progress on the AKU's or wm6. Mine was intended to help the guys who ARE working very hard on this, in hopes as many would see the progress made. It was posted once in each respective forum it was germaine to, not 3 times. go back to math class.

[Alwaysbelieve1]

yeah i did misunderstand then.

thanks for clarifying.

That's cool! Windows CE emulation for an x86 target never made that much sense.

Here is ms's mobile emulator v1:

Version 2.0 is coming out when wm6 is officially released. Some of the 2.0 emu features are in the beta, rest coming in the RTM.
