Preferred method of packaging Windows Mobile apps?

Question

Is there a preferred method of packaging Windows Mobile apps? Visual Studio creates an .exe file from the source, but the MSDN website mentions a CAB wizard. Can either work if it is just a standalone .exe? What all can activesync use to install on a mobile device?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Use the Visual Studio Smartdevice CAB Wizard. It will install icons on start menus, custom DLLs you need, etc. It also will register the proper information for deinstallation of your application. However, I don't know if there are better application packagers out there. I've used the CAB Wizard without problems.
