Preparing Target Device to Connect to VS2008 IDE
The VS2008 Managed code development environment uses CoreCon to establish connectivity
between the VS2008 IDE and the target device, similar to the CoreCon used for the Native code
application exercise in Part-9 of this guide. Follow and use the same steps from the native code
application section to configure the VS2008 device connectivity settings.
Note:
If you are continuing from the previous VS2008 native code exercise, using the same instance of
Compact 7 device, the device connectivity settings are already configured.
Establish Connectivity to Compact 7 Target Device
To initiate connectivity to the target device, from the VS2008 menu, select
Tools → Connect to
Device
to bring up the
Connect to Device
screen, as shown in Figure 59.
