This is a standalone version of the Device Emulator that shipped with
Visual Studio 2005. You can install this and use to run and showcase
device applications.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Microsoft Device Emulator 1.0 is a standalone version of the same
ARM based Device Emulator that ships as part of Visual Studio 2005.
The standalone emulator is intended for situations when you want to
demonstrate or test your application on a computer that does not have
Visual Studio 2005 installed. In addition, we are offering the Windows
Mobile 5.0 MSFP operating system images that you can use with the
Device Emulator.
Device Emulator 1.0 has a number of features that make it significantly
better than its predecessor (the x86 emulator). You will find that it:
o Runs code compiled for ARM processors rather than for x86 processors. In most
cases, you can run the same binaries on the emulator as you do on the device.
o Supports synchronizing with ActiveSync. You can use the Device Emulator with
a full ActiveSync partnership. This feature allows you to debug applications
that are syncing, or be able to use real synchronized data from within the
Device Emulator.
o Provides support for more development environments. The emulator has been
tested for developing and debugging applications with Visual Studio 2005,
Visual Studio .NET 2003, and with eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 (eVC4) SP4, all
using ActiveSync. No crossover serial cable is required.
o The Device Emulator supports GAPI. You can write and debug GAPI games on the
Device Emulator and expect them to work.

Supported Operating Systems:
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1;
Windows XP Service Pack 2
Windows XP (with SP2)
Windows Server 2003 (with SP1)
First, download the ZIP file for the emulator. Unzip it and double-click on
the vs_emulator.exe, which is the installer for the Device Emulator that will
guide you through the installation process. Then, install the Windows Mobile
5.0 MSFP OS image. The installation will create shortcuts on your start menu
from where you can launch the various configurations of the Windows Mobile
5.0 MSFP. You will also see a shortcut for the DeviceEmulatorManager using
which you can launch any of the installed images.
If you didn't change the install path during installation, you will see the
Device Emulator installed under: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Device Emulator\1.0
Note: The installation for Windows Mobile 5.0 MSFP depends on the Virtual
Machine Network Driver (VMNet) being present on your machine, before it
installs. You can obtain the VMNet driver here:
