Hello,

I've just ported my game from PocketPC to MS Smartphone platform. However I have a problem with installer. It works perfectly with Smartphone 2002 devices but fails to install on WM2003 phones with message:

"Infinite Dreams SkyForce Demo.CAB failed to install on your device because the installation file is not intended for this device."

Could you please tell what is the problem? Unfortunatelly I have only 2002 device for testing.

I'm copiling with eVC++ 3.0 for Smartphone 2002 target and I want this to run on all 2002 and later devices.

Here is a listing of my inf file:

[Version]


Signature   = "$Windows NT$"    ; required as-is


Provider    = "Infinite Dreams" ; full app name will be "<Provider> <AppName>"


CESignature = "$Windows CE$"    ; required as-is




[CEStrings]


AppName     = "SkyForce Demo"   ; full app name will be "<Provider> <AppName>"


InstallDir  = %CE1%Games%AppName%




[CEDevice.ARM720]


ProcessorType = 0




[SourceDisksNames]


1 = ,"ARM",,ARM




[SourceDisksFiles]


SkyForceDemo.exe = 1


data.pak = 1


Game.log = 1


readme.txt = 1




[DefaultInstall]


CopyFiles   = TheFiles


CEShortcuts = Shortcuts




[DestinationDirs]


TheFiles    = 0,%InstallDir%


Shortcuts   = 0,%CE14%            ; WindowsStart MenuProgramsGames



;File copy list.


[TheFiles]


"SkyForceDemo.exe", SkyForceDemo.exe


"data.pak", data.pak


"Game.log", Game.log


"readme.txt", readme.txt




[Shortcuts]                       ; Shortcut created in destination dir, %CE14%


%AppName%,0,SkyForceDemo.exe

best regards,

hi

this is the inf file i used for Palindrome's weightwatchers calculator

i dont know if that will help, the problem i was having with my installers was the way ms moved the /ipsm to /storage

[Version]


Signature   = "$Windows NT$"      


Provider    = "Palindrome"   


CESignature = "$Windows CE$"      






[CEStrings]


AppName     = "Weight Watchers Points Calculator"      


                                  






[SourceDisksNames]               


1 = ,"SourceDirAll1",,d:weightwatcher




[SourceDisksFiles]


"WW Points Calc.exe"       = 1






[DefaultInstall]


CopyFiles   = CopyToHomeDir


CEShortcuts = Shortcuts   




[DestinationDirs]


CopyToHomeDir = 0,%CE1%%AppName% 


Shortcuts   = 0, %CE11%            ; storage|ipsmWindowsStart MenuPrograms








[CopyToHomeDir]


"WW Points Calc.exe",WW Points Calc.exe








[Shortcuts]                        ; Shortcut created in destination dir, %CE14%


%AppName%,0,WW Points Calc.exe
