You need an IDE (Integreated Developement Environment) for C++, and either prior knowledge of C++ or similar language, or a huge desire to learn.

Also you would need to download the Smartphone SDK (Software Developement Kit) from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=b4370bb3-0bb8-41b5-ace8-7d2b9be02ed1&DisplayLang=en>here.

Good news - the SDK is free. :)

Bad news - the IDE is not. :cry:

Microsoft do release thier C++ comand line interpreter for free, but you then need to code everything by hand in notepad! :evil:

Edit-

Enter this http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=61628>competition to win a Developers Kit (also comes with an exclusive developers only phone). Join http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=54779>MoDaCo Plus and get two chances of wining. :(

the ide is currently free,. it's called embedded visual c++ and you can download it from microsoft.

in future it will become part of visual studio and then not free

I stand corrected!

I thought that you needed Visual Studio or Visual C++ to use eMbedded Visual Tools, but as spacemonkey said it's free :), so you don't need to pay for Visual Studio or Visual C++, eMbedded Visual Tools is a stand alone.

If anyone wants to download the IDE it is http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=f663bf48-31ee-4cbe-aac5-0affd5fb27dd&languageid=f49e8428-7071-4979-8a67-3cffcb0c2524&displaylang=en>here.

Thanks for pointing that out spacemonkey, I hadn't realised!
