Re: I have Windows CE Platform Builder 5.0, anyone what's fo
everyone can download WinCE PB 5.0 and updates from MS site for free.
But it is completely useless for you and all other guys who cannot distinguish Windows CE from Pocket PC OS.

My institute has a genuine copy of Platform Builder for Windows CE 5.0 given by Microsoft. Is it possible to develop a 5.0 ROM for Magician using that?
No.
You need a BSP (Board Support Package) from the OEM that contains all the drivers and settings for a specific device.
Plus, there is a different Platform Builder for Windows CE and Windows Mobile.
Thank you very much. But I'd like to ask how do they realize Linux on Magician.

via reverse engeneering.
You can do the same - reverse engeneer the ROM, recreate BSP for magician and compile Windows CE 5.0, or even Windows CE 6.0 for your device. It would take 1-2 years for this to do.
You would be unable to compile Windows Mobile 5.0 because you don't have WinMobile adaptation kit. MS provides it to OEMs only.
And you should know the difference between CE and WM.
I come from years of Symbian PDA owning/development, and I had several languages available, besides C++: OPL (Basic-like), PersonalJava, J2ME, MidletPascal, Python, Jython, m-Shell... all of them for FREE!
What are the alternatives on a WM machine? Can I only develop in C++, or have I some FREE alternatives?
do you mean languages or programming envioments ?
embedded visual studio is free if you mean envioments

both.
I just found info about the embedded visual studio you talk about. I see c++ allows API access,but VB cannot. Any workaround?
I also found WABA and EWE: for the first, site states "you can write native code by modifing WABA sources"; I guess it means writing additional C++ code?
for the second, it says it allows accessing native functions: does it mean you can use EWE to start/receive calls, send/receive SMS, access COM port,...?
The following languages/interpreters are used nicely on HTC Typhoon:
1. Jython 2.2 for Java 1.1.8 SE (along with Personal Java CE 1.1 and the JDK runtime/library);
2. Perl CE 5.8.0 from the Rainer-Keuchel portings;
3. nScriptm HPCARM 0.104 by Nakka/ S/K;
4. Rebol CE 1.5.5 by Carl Sassenrath.
An advanced application manager such as SPHelper is needed to solve the pointing device stuff ...
There is a Smartphone patch for Python CE from one of the developers at SF.net released in March I did not try yet, (perhaps someone interested will) ...

thanks, that's very interesting, especially Jython: Is Java 1.1.8 supported by all HTC devices?
Yupp, it sure is ... but Sun Microsystems stopped releasing it alltogether to the end user, R.I.P Personal Java (this was the actual compatibility with CE) ...

that blog is just the reason for which I asked about PersonalJava compatibility
I use PJ compatible PDAs since several years (SonyEricsson p800, Motorola a1000...), and I'd like to continue being able to use PJ applications even when I'll pass to Windows PDA!
I guess you can add Python CE v2.5 to that list as well now ...
It`ll be working fine on every single WM version existing, although I did not test`em all:

Hi developers!
My question is where can i download windows mobile 6 build system (i don't know, in wince it is platform builder and visual studio) for building images for custom hardware platform. I know that it is not open for free, but i've red that a lot of developers downloaded it. It is my dream to install windows mobile 6 on my hardware platform, so help me please how can! Thanks
there was a trial version of it somewhere in MS site but you have to search for it, if you are good in writing drivers for your hardware platform you may hav the luck to run WM6 on it, but i doubt it because the people who do this have teams for writing and testing drivers, it is large amount of work
I'm trying to see if it's possible to create a pure windows ce rom for the xperia x1.
Has anyone tried this before on other devices?
Any tips on how to start on this?
I'm more familiar to working with android then windows mobile.
