Usage

To run the code sample
  1. Navigate to the solution file (*.sln), and double-click it. By default, the solution file is copied to the following folder:
    C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Samples\Smartphone\cpp\Win32\PhoneIme
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 launches and loads the solution.
  2. Build the solution (Ctrl+Shift+B).
  3. Deploy the solution (F5).
    If you have not installed the SamplePrivDeveloper certificate, you will need to so that your Dll and CAB projects are signed correctly.
    To install the certificate from the windows desktop
  4. Click Start > Run.

  5. Type the path-name to SamplePrivDeveloper.pfx certificate, and click OK. By default, this is located in the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\Tools\Security\SDK Development Certificates
  6. Double-click the SamplePrivDeveloper.pfx certificate icon. The Certificate Import Wizard appears.
  7. Click Next. The certificate path-name is filled-in.
  8. Click Next.
  9. Click Next (you do not need a password).
  10. Click Next. Accept the default options; automatically select the certificate store based on certificate type.
  11. Click Finish.
