Hi, I need to compile code written in Visual studio 2008 in Windows XP for WinCE mobile platform. How to do it in Visual studio 2008 by changing target platform settings ?

+1  A: 

For Visual Studio 2008 see this MSDN page as a starting point.

For C++ this page is the index page and this page tells you how to build and debug. There are a fair number of steps in terms of compiler options and what additional files you need so I won't quote them here.

Not mentioned by others, but you get a device emulator too. I found it quite straightforward.

@bjskishore123 - odd the actual address of the first page is http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/sa69he4t(v=VS.90).aspx so you can copy and paste into your browser to see if that works.

A: 

ChrisF's answer is correct. You can setup a smart device project and you are set.

In addition most mobile device (or embedded board) manufacturers provide a CE SDK for their devices(boards). This SDK helps with custom headers and libraries that you may wish to use and also with on device debugging.
