x86

[Martin Beaulieu]

I have download the version of Win CE 3.0 in the Microsoft site.
I use Windows 98.
I am not able to put the support for the x86. Why ?

Thanks.

x86 or x86em? If you are targeting a custom x86-based Windows CE device, you
will need to obtain an SDK from the device maker. (This is an option for
them in Platform Builder.)

If you are targeting x86em, that should be installed and working.(Although
the emulator requires 2000 or NT.)

I develop the application that support x86.

I need this for Real Time Operating System that use for programming.

The free version of Win CE 3.0 don't support x86 ??

Thanks.

First off. You don't have Windows CE V3.0 you have the eMbedded Visual tools
V3.0. That is, you have the compiler and development environment for the
Windows CE OS not the OS itself.

Second, as mentioned already, it does support the x86 processor. However,
since OEMs making devices with an x86 processor have literally millions
(more likely billions) of possible configurations for the OS they must
generate an SDK for their specific device so that the eVT can properly build
an application for the device. (Every platform has a unique set of headers
and libs that include only the support for the parts of the OS included in a
particular device.) If you want to target for a particular x86 device you
will need an SDK from the device manufacturer.
