We can test
this application in one of two ways:
- using desktop emulation
- on the actual Pocket PC device
Let's
start with the desktop emulation.
The easiest
place to set the debug target device is on the main button bar.

Make sure
this is set to 'Pocket PC Emulation'.
We are almost
ready for testing this app. First make sure that your Pocket PC is connected.
Make sure it is in it's cradle and then double-click on the
icon in your system tray. You should see the MS ActiveSync window
with a Connected status.

All set -
let's emulate! Hit the F5 key!
You will
see a 'connecting to remote device' dialog

followed
by viola! The desktop emulation screen.

You will
also notice the debug toolbar present when the eVB IDE has focus.

You can stop
the desktop emulation by clicking on the dark button on the lower left
side of the emulator (as shown above).
Running the
app on the actual Pocket PC device.
Go to the
main button bar and change the target device to 'Pocket PC (Default
Device)'.

Now hit F5
again. You will see several dialogs as the runtime files and components
are downloaded to the device. Then you will see the FirstApp on your device
as shown by the following graphic.


You can stop the program by clicking on the
end button on the debug toolbar (as shown above). Congratulations you
have just completed all the workflow steps that you will need to design,
test and execute eVB applications on your Pocket PC.
