C++ Program Build in Borland how to get it in CE 5.0

[Kohen(nl)]

Reading people,

This is the problem, we builded with 3 people a program in borland C++ with
the VCL library. So we need those dll's to run our program. With the simple
import program from mike hall i putted in my project.

Then i started to compile the project but i have never seen so much errors :)

im doing something wrong i know.

How can i get my program in windows CE.
Canbuild an .exe but then i still need our dll's

Thnx

First problem here: you first need to get VCL ported to your flavour of CE5,
I'm not aware of such a port. If you have the sourcecode, you might be able
to just recompile it, since the APIs for desktop win32 and CE are mostly
the same. If you don't, you'll have to ask the vendor to supply them.

Hmmm, is VCL already available for CE? Seriously, I don't know. You
shouldn't even assume everyone knows what VCL is, btw, it's just luck that
I do.

Well, first thing I'd do is describe with a bit more detail what you have
and what errors you get.

Call Borland support and beg them to support Windows CE devices. You can't
just take an executable built for the desktop and expect it to run on a CE
device (Even if it uses an x86 processor) as the import libraries and
internal apis are quite different.

But how can i build then something for CE 5.0?
We know the C++ language...

there is no manual how to do that. If i have a small start (begin) then i
will try more.

When i make something in Borland C++ how can i put my program in windows CE
5.0 Can somebody explain that to me??

Thnx !

There are two common ways available:
1. Using eVC4 (eMbedded Visual C++ 4), which can be downloaded for free.
2. Using VS 2005.

In both cases, you need an SDK for the target system you want to develop
for. You can usually get that from the manufacturer of the device.

Steve Maillet already gave you very precise answer to that: "Call Borland
support and beg them to support Windows CE devices.".
