Question

I am resetting up my development machine and I cannot seem to remember where I got CabWiz.exe (used for creating installation cab files for windows mobile).

Is that on MSDN Downloads in some package? Or somewhere else? Does anyone know?

I installed the Windows Mobile 5 SDK and I thought that was all I needed, but I guess there is something else I need.

I asked the MS Concierge and they said that it comes with platform builder (which I would install anyway), but the path is not the same as what I had.

It was at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\SmartDevices\SDK\SDKTools\cabwiz.exe and he told me it is at \CEPB\Bin\cabwiz.exe. I am concerned that I am missing something else....

Later note: Right, so, I am not so smart. My MSBuild script was failing to find

  • C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\SmartDevices\SDK\SDKTools\cabwiz.exe.

And that is with good reason, because I installed on a 64 bit os. So it is now at

  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\SmartDevices\SDK\SDKTools\cabwiz.exe

Some times I am just super short sighted!

Was it helpful?

Solution

%PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\SmartDevices\SDK\SDKTools

or

%PROGRAMFILES%\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Tools\CabWiz
