Debugging without ActiveSync -unable to get Visual Studio 2005 to cooperate

Hi All,

I need to connect a new device to my computer, and I cannot use activeSync to debug it because it has no usb or com outlets.

I manged to connect it by LAN and pinged it successfully. So i wanted to use my lan connection and work by it on the device.

The device cpu is "Alchemy au1550"

I followed the instructons from this forum :

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=447917&SiteID=1

and noticed that conmanclient2.exe that i used from the mipsii folder exited immediately, the one from the mipsii_fp folder got stuck at the command prompt.

I assume that neither is compatible with my cpu.

does anyone know where I can get a compatible version

Thanks,

Yariv Kimchi

    Hi Ilya,

    I understand from your answer that I need to go to the image provider for something like that. I am doing that as well as inquiring here.

    Thanks,

    That would be Platform Builder - tool used to make the image in a first place. It would show messages about missing dependencies which you can add and rebuild.

    When you run the conmanclient2.exe, it will block (it is not hanging). So, one from MippsII_FP is seems correct one.

    Did you try to proceed further and try the connection from desktop What error are you getting

    Hi Anr,

    I contacted the Image supplier and they told me that they removed some crucial (for me) parts from the WIN CE 4.2 core. So they will have to do some debugging and supply me with a new Image.

    Assuming it is MIPSII, perhaps you have some dependencies missing in the OS image You would see messages about it if you have PB attached to the device.

    Hi Ilya,

    What is PB

    If there are dependencies missing then where can I get or see the dependencies that are needed for MIPSII, and perhaps make another image

    Thanks,
