Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools is a legacy, free development suite from Microsoft Corporation designed for building applications for Windows CE–based devices, including Pocket PC, Handheld PC, and Smartphone. The suite combines eMbedded Visual C++ (3.0/4.0) and eMbedded Visual Basic 3.0 with device SDKs, compilers, headers, emulators, and remote deployment and debugging tools. It targets multiple processor architectures—ARM, MIPS, SH3/SH4, and x86—and supports native Win32 development with MFC and ATL, as well as VB-style applications that run on the eVB runtime.
The environment provides an IDE with project templates, resource and dialog editors, step-through debugging with breakpoints and watch windows, and device connectivity through ActiveSync for testing on hardware or emulators. It integrates OEM and platform SDKs so developers can build against custom Windows CE configurations.
Microsoft later replaced eMbedded Visual Tools with Smart Device development features in Visual Studio .NET 2003 and newer releases. Today it is primarily used to maintain existing Windows CE and Pocket PC solutions.
