EVC4 crashing?

[Guest drblow]

I'm only trying to create a new WCE Dynamic-Link Library, with an empty .dll

The app stops responding every time. Anyone else encountered this & know what to do?

this is going to sound very bizarre possible cause, but are you running XP and do you have a network setup on your PC or not?

if XP and no network, then the default build options attempt to copy the built file to the target device, and the target device is the emulator by default - and the emulator needs there to be a working network to work properly (for some bizarre reason)

the way around it, if you dont have a network, is to install the "Microsoft LoopBack Adapter" with the Control Panel->Add Hardware

maxh2003 did a tutorial on first time setupHERE

hope that helps

Cheers fella! It didn't work ... but it lead me to that tutorial which is good, and I just uninstalled eveything, reinstalled it as per the instructions, and now it seems to be working OK! :D

Now I have to get my head around the code part! :twisted: Just one more thing though ... in THIS tutorial about plugin coding, it tells me to open a new workspace (WCE Dynamic-Link Library), which I am now able to do. To start puttin gin the code itself, so I just open a new text window in the workspace?
