 Problem Installing an application on a Pocket PC

I'm using Microsoft embedded Visual Tools 3.0 and test on
a IPaq 3660. It's working fine. When I want to create an
installation program using the Wizard included I can only
choose between MIPS and SH processor. My iPaq has a ARM
processor. How can I create an installation program for
this processor?

Thanks for any help
Sandro

It could be a problem with the vbce.ini file.

It should contain sections for each platform that you're trying to target
and the processor list for that platform.  For the PocketPC, for example,
there should be a section that looks like this:

[{6D5C6210-E14B-11D2-B72A-0000F8026CEE}]
SH 3 (1K) v3.00=4,3,3,0,1024,10003
Mips 4000 (4K) v3.00=1,4,3,0,4096,4000
Arm 720T (4K) v3.00=5,4,3,0,4096,1824
Arm 1100 (4K) v3.00=5,4,3,0,4096,2577

This file is what is used to populate the processor list for the
Application Install Wizard.  Not sure why you wouldn't already have the
proper entries there, though.....

You probably haven't installed the PPC SDK (this is not automatic in the
install).

Find the PPC12SDK folder from your Embedded Installation CD and run the
set-up manually.  Restart eVB and you should be right.

Let me know how you go.
