Pocket PC emulator

The first one is the Pocket PC emulator provided with Pocket PC SDK (Software Development Kit). This emulator shares environment with the Windows system installed. This means that both files and registry entries for the emulator are possible to manipulate from the Mimer SQL Mobile programs and wizards.

When working with this emulator you select Emulator when you have a choice between emulator and handheld device.

Pocket PC 2002 emulator

The second emulator is called the Pocket PC 2002 emulator and is included in the Pocket PC 2002 SDK. This emulator has a binary image which contains all the files and registry entries used by the emulator. It is therefore not possible to access the internals of this emulator from the Mimer SQL Mobile programs and wizards. The way you work with this emulator is very similar to working with a handheld device. In this case you have to set up ActiveSync to target the emulator. This procedure is described in the Embedded Visual Studio C++ documentation. In the documentation index select emulator Pocket PC 2002, subheading ActiveSync, and choose Using AvtiveSync with the emulator and follow the instructions.

When working with this emulator you select Handheld device rather than Emulator whenever you have this choice in the different Mimer SQL Mobile programs and wizards.
