The Windows CE Test Kit (CETK) can be used to verfier programs and drivers on a WindowsCE based system. It is included in the Microsoft Platform builider an mainly used to verfiy new platforms (primary the kernel).
The Applikation Verfier is one part of the CETK that can even be used to test applikation software. Especially to check if there are some heap-leaks it is very useful.
There allready is a technical article available on the Microsoft web-site, that describes the usage of the application verifier very detailled, so this thread will give further information on how to use it on our platforms.
Troubleshooting
-
On some platforms it is not possible to establish a connection to the target device using ActiveSync. In that case the server has to be started
manually:
Therefore you must change the connection settings under: Connect -> Settings -> Properties. Transport should be set to "TCP/IP transport for Windows CE" and the startup server must be lauched manually. When trying to connect with these new settings there appears an information window on the desktop screen that shows the client command to be executed on the target. Copy the needed files (cetk_client.zip) on the target device, if not done allready, and execute the corresponding command using a telnet session for example. The connection should now be established and verifying an application can go on like described in the technical article
Please feel free to supplement this description and let us know if there are some further addaptions required.
