.NET Compact Framework v2.0 Beta 2
Posted by Peter Foot in "DEVELOPER" @ 06:00 AM
"The Microsoft .NET Compact Framework version 2.0 beta redistributable package is the most recent update to the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework and includes everything you need to run applications on devices developed using the .NET Compact Framework"
This redistributable package allows you to run applications developed against .NETCF v1.0 or v2.0 on supported devices. If you intend to install Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 it's not recommended you install this as you'll need to uninstall the .NETCF v2.0 package first (Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 includes these runtimes). The runtimes are installed to your device over ActiveSync. See the download page for full details and supported devices.
A big change with .NETCF v2.0 is that you can now create device applications using the SDK tools (also in Beta) as well as Visual Studio 2005 Standard edition and above.
