Hi,

What is the difference between evc++ 3.0 and 4.0 in context of
application development?

Regards.

Instead of us giving you the history of the tool, why don't you tell us what
you need to do and we will tell you what you need to use?

Thanks for reply.

Actually i want to port one industrial application developed on eVC++
3.0(Wince 3.0) to eVC++ 4.0(Wince 5.0).Therefore, to have broad idea of
changes for porting the application, i want to go through the differences
between eVC++ 3.0 and eVC++ 4.0.

There's nothing that you have to worry about up-front. Of course, the two
devices might have significantly different SDK/OS contents, but we can't
tell you about that.

You might not need to port at all. Have you tried running one of the
executables you have on one of the new devices?

The differences between the old and new _devices_ are way more
important than any differences between eVC 3 and eVC 4. Do you have
any reason to expect important differences between the devices?

Both versions of eVC are fussy about differences between specified
target and actual hardware. So you won't be able to use eVC 3 to debug
directly on a new device. That could be a minor annoyance or a serious
bother. If it's only a minor nuisance, you could choose to ignore eVC
4. I have both, do most development on eVC 3, and crank up eVC 4 on
the relatively rare occasion when I need to debug a problem that shows
only on a device supported by eVC 4.
