Testing an Application Using a Simulator

Run and test the application on a simulator and verify that the application automatically registers to the SAP Mobile Server using the default application connection template.

  1. In Visual Studio, choose Tools > Device Emulator Manager.
  2. Scroll down to the entry for Windows Mobile 6 Professional, right-click that entry and select Connect.
  3. Right-click the entry for Windows Mobile 6 Professional again and select Cradle.
  4. In the Solution Explorer of Visual Studio, right-click the C# project and select Deploy.
  5. In the Windows Mobile emulator go to Start > Programs > File Explorer.
  6. Navigate to the installed path by going in Program Files > > <Application>.
  7. Start the application.
  8. In SAP Control Center, verify that the application connection was created in Applications > Application Connections.
    When the application has successfully registered, the application connection displays a value of zero in the Pending Items column. The Pending Items column is used only for messaging applications.
  9. Test the functionality of the application. Use debug tools as necessary, setting breakpoints at appropriate places in the application.
