Windows CE exe compressor/packer?

[Guest Jamma14]

Hey everyone, didn't know where to put this so shuvd it in here.

I'm currently writing my first app for smartphone thanks to C++ for dummies and maxh2003's tutorials (if you read this, any plans on doing any more? ;) ) but my exe is a bit on the large side and win32 exe packers mess it up.

I've searched but haven't found anything...anyone know of compressors that work with wince ie. windows mobile executables??

O and also does anyone know if you are using GetAsyncKeyState to read a keypress, eg. VK_UP and 0x31, what is the one for the back button??

Cheers, Jamma

there are no exe compressors for the Smartphones that I know of

the exe file size is usually down to stuff you've included in it (gfx, sound etc) and usually you can make the exe smaller just by making them more efficient before including them

as for the back button (I'm assuming you mean the reversing arrow button) it's VK_ESCAPE

Yeh that's what I meant cheers, I know the exe is big because I have lots of bitmaps in it but I haven't learnt how to include other image formats like jpgs :oops: ;)

I assume you can't you just import them as resources and you need to put in some extra code?? If it's simple enough could you explain how ;)?
