Hi,
I am using Windows Emb CE 6.0. I am creating a cab file, using the CAB
Wizard. But my cab file contains the file extensions as .001, .002,..
Here is the code in my TestINF.inf file:
-----
[Version]
Signature ="$Windows NT$"
Provider ="MY"
CESignature ="$Windows CE$"
[CEStrings]
AppName ="MyApp"
InstallDir =%CE1%\%AppName%
[SourceDisksNames]
1=,"Common1",,"D:\CreateCab\"
[SourceDisksFiles]
"Hello.exe"=1
"TestFile.doc"=1
TestFile1.doc=1
my.bmp=1
[DefaultInstall]
CopyFiles = CopyToProgramFiles
AddReg = RegData
CEShortcuts = Shortcuts
[DestinationDirs]
CopyToProgramFiles =0, %InstallDir%
Shortcuts =0, %CE14%
[CopyToProgramFiles]
"Hello.exe", Hello.exe
"TestFile.doc", TestFile.doc
"TestFile1.doc",TestFile1.doc
"my.bmp",my.bmp
[RegData]
HKCU,Software\%AppName%,MajorVersion,0x00010001,1
HKCU,Software\%AppName%,MinorVersion,0x00010001,0
[Shortcuts]
%AppName%,0,Hello.exe
-------
I am getting TestINF.cab, which includes the following files
1. _setup.xml
2. 0TestINF.000
3. 000Hello.001
4. TestFile.002
5. TestFI~1.003
6. 000000my.004
I am unable to figure out why my file extensions(which i specific in
[SourceDisksFiles]) are changed to .001, .002,
Any pointer\reference would be of great help!

The extension of the files in the .cab are not relevant: if you install the
CAB the files will be copied to the target destination with the correct
extension

Yes you can: share the folder that containd the .cab file with the emulator
(will appear as 'Storage Card') and double click it

I tried as suggested by you, but got an error
"There is no application associated with 'TestINF'. Run application first ..."
I think i need to add support corresponding to CAB file from the catalog

I added sysgen variable 'SYSGEN_WCELOAD' to my run-time image and tested the
cab file on Emulator.
