<DIV>Hi.</DIV>
<DIV>Well this is my first day doing PocketPC development....I SHOULD be
doing real work tho, and I will after this email :-) </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>BUT, I must say I did get to grips with the Delphi 2005 tool pretty
quickly. There are some issues straight away tho, and they are document and
its easy work arounds.</DIV>
<DIV>Basically, you need to remove unsupported properties like TAG and NAME
for controls....its all in the document what you do.....and there are some
other small things, but I had something running pretty quick.</DIV>
<DIV>I would recommend downloading the emulators tho, as I had to restart my
i-Mate 2 times :-) onyl because I didnt read ALL the
document...hehehe</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But, there is some way to go unfortuntuly, but it will be GREAT when
its all done !!</DIV>
<DIV>I used Vis.Studio 2005 and just did a VB.Net app for the PPC, and was
TOTALLY blown away how when I ran the app. it load it to the PPC, then, if I
set a break point in the code, then fired that code, say on a button click,
it actually stopped at that line when I clicked the button on the running
app. in the PPC !!! that I must admit was VERY clever.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think the borland one had a ways to go yet, BUT, it will be great I
suspect when its all sorted !</DIV>
<DIV>I think its worth a download all the same.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
