Dear users,
You may have noticed that there is no build for 2002 OS devices available with release 0.9.0 of scummvm. As I remarked on an earlier thread, the codebase has become increasingly complex to "confuse" the evc3 developement system, which has to be used for 2002 devices. We are working on using alternative build systems (gcc) which should provide the required backward compatibility. This is our major priority right now, before a round of bug-squishing which have made their way in 0.9.0. I think this is also a good time to have a poll about the number of users with old devices

PS. The poll is going to run for 30 days.

Hi n0p,
Thanks again for your contributions. I'm currently compiling using the toolchain from the vlc guys, after the advice of joostp. I wrote a three line app for testing which runs just fine on my 2002 device. It's a long way from a simple app to scummvm, but at least it seems there is binary compatibility with these tools. The currect ce codebase needs modifications for successful compilation/linking which i will commit as soon as I get scummvm running.

PS. The toolchain has gcc 4.1.0 20050511.

scummvm on Windows CE 4.2?
Hello,
i tryed now the exe you have the link in the first topic of this theard.
But i always get the error it isnt a valid windows ce application.
My pocketpc have an Phillips ARM-ARM920 Processor. I downloadet some applications such as Pocketpaint, they are working without problems, SodokuCE also works without problems

I bope you added to the unbzipped file the .exe extension.
Other than that, the error you report is given when either:
1) an application has invalid format (ie. no PE header - generic data file)
2) the os version of the application is greater then the device
3) you're missing some .dll the application depends on.
(2) is out of the question. You may try putting a gx.dll in the scummvm directory if your system does not supply one. (1) is out of the question as well (provided the .exe was added.
