Q: 

CF - Application installation CAB (including .net cf ...)

Hello !

Can some1 please explain how can i include this installations in my CAB file.

NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab

Also on some devices the user has to confirm several DLLs that i would like to awoid. Im told that i should use ILMerge, but i dont know exactly what to do.

thanx

+1  A: 

Whoever told you that ILMerge was a solution obviously doesn't know anything about CF development or CAB files. It won't do you any good, so don't waste time looking into it.

Microsoft published an MSDN article that covers multi-CAB installs, which would be a very good first start. THen look at this blog entry about how to modify it.

As for avoiding confirmations, wcelaod.exe (the app that unpacks the CAB on the device) has command line options to prevent them.

EDIT

The sample source code for multicabinstall ships with the WinMo SDKs. FOr example, if you installed the WInMo 6.0 SDK in its default location, the source will be at C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Samples\Common\CPP\Win32\multicabinstall

Thanx again for your anwser ctacke ! But on the MSDN page i cannot find the source. Also a question with wcelaod.exe ... so after i build my install project that puts our the .cab file i just run wceload command with the parameters on the given .cab file?

or do i need to handle wceload somewhere in my setup project (like ce_setup.h file)?
