Preparing Target Device to Connect to VS2008 IDE
To download the VS2008_Win32_HelloWorld application to the CE 6.0 target device, we need to
establish connectivity between the target device and VS2008 IDE using CoreCon.
To establish CoreCon connectivity, CoreCon files from the following directory on the VS2008
development workstation must to be included to the CE 6.0 target device’s runtime image, or place
in the target device’s
\Windows
folder:
\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Corecon\1.0\Target\wce400
There are multiple sub folders, with names corresponding to the CPU architectures, under the above
directory. Each of these folders contains CoreCon component files to support the corresponding
CPU family. These CoreCon files are copied to the development workstation during the Visual
Studio 2008 installation process.
Note:
The VDX-6326 SBC is built with x86 CPU architecture. The CoreCon files needed to support the VDX-
6326 SBC are in the “\x86” sub folder.
As part of the Develop Custom OS Design exercise, the CoreCon_v200_x86 component is included to
the OS design project to generate the OS runtime image, used in the target device. In addition, the
AutoLaunch_v200_x86 component is also added to the OS design with registry entries configured to
launch the CoreCon executable when CE 6.0 starts.
If the CoreCon files are not included as part of the OS runtime image, you need to manually copy the
necessary CoreCon files to the CE 6.0 target device’s \Windows directory and manually launch the
ConmanClient2.exe
and
CMaccept.exe
executables.
