Is it possible to install the Windows Mobile SDK without having Visual Studio? I am using SharpDevelop to write a Windows Mobile application, but I need to use an assembly in the Windows Mobile 6.0 SDK. When I try to install the SDK I get a message that says Visual Studio is a prerequisite, and I am un able to install it.
Is there a way to trick it in to thinking Visual Studio is installed; maybe a registry entry that can be added or something, or am I just hosed? Is there a reason I need to pay for Microsoft's IDE, or is this just a way for Microsoft to make some extra money?
Thanks,
I only need one assembly Miscrosoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.dll. The application I am writing relies on it to intercept incoming text messages, unless there is another way to intercept incoming messages that fit a particular criteria? – Tester101 – 2010-02-06T23:21:35.037
