Once you have created a Pocket PC CAB file, you will want to create a professional desktop installation program to deliver it (a setup.exe). This is a simple task.
All you need to create a pocket pc installation program are the following files:
rambo.CAB - your CAB file (learn to create one here)
install.ini - installation ini file shown below
eula.txt - end user license agreement text file
readme.txt - readme notes text file
ezsetup.exe - free download from spbsoftwarehouse.com
createinstall.bat - batch file shown below
Place all of these files into their own directory.
install.ini
CODE
[CEAppManager]
Version = 1.0
Component = Radiosity Games Rambo
[Radiosity Games Rambo]
Description = This is Radiosity Games Rambo
Uninstall = Radiosity Games Rambo
CabFiles = rambo.cab
createinstall.bat
CODE
ezsetup.exe -l english -i install.ini -r readme.txt -e eula.txt -o Rambo_setup.exe
FINAL STEP
From a command prompt, change to the directory of files and run createinstall.bat. The setp program will be generated. Sample screenshots of the install in progress below.
