Ghost2520 Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 My dad has a nice Compaq PDA with Windows CE on it, and I was wondering how I can program games for it. Is there a simple program that you can download onto your computer, make the game on there and then transfer it to a PDA? Thanks in advance if you know anything about programming games for PDA's.

syneze Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 embedded visual c++ 4.0 http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default..../pocket2003.asp It's not a "simple" programming interface by any means since you generally don't accept input from your typical mouse/keyboard combo and memory allocation is very tight. You're going to have to familiarize yourself with the Windows API (the dumbed down CE version) and C++. If you don't know anything about programming you might not make it too far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost2520 Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 Yah, I don't know C++... but it will be worth a try. Thanks for the site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost2520 Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 Yah, that would be easier... but I've always wanted to make my own game, and I figured PDA's would be easy and a good place to start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
