Could anybody tell me is there any way to create C# application in Visual Studio 2015 to mobile device with Windows CE 6.0 (with .NET framework 3.5 compact)?

I found SDK for VS 2008 only.

Regards, Tomasz

  • J. Steen- no, is not a duplicate. Solution for VS 2008 not working on VS 2015. – Tomasz Filipek Jul 21 '16 at 07:34
  • **Post**-2008. The question has answers on the limitations of the various compact editions and as such answers what you want to know. It might not be the answer you want to hear, but it's the unfortunate way it seems to be. – J. Steen Jul 21 '16 at 07:35
  • Ok, It seems that there is no possibility of programming in VS higher as 2008 :/. I was looking is possible buy the VS 2008 PRO, and I do not see such a possibility :/ – Tomasz Filipek Jul 21 '16 at 07:58
  • With an [MSDN subscription](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/aa336858.aspx) you can get access to older versions of Visual Studio, including VS2008 – Carsten Hansen Jul 22 '16 at 01:02

To develop for WCE6 and .NET CF 3.5 the official tool is VS2008. Install VS2008 and you will have also .NET CF 3.5 installed. No SDK is needed: just create a smart device project and select your target CF version. About your target WCE6 OS it need to have support for .NET CF 3.5.

Hope this helps
