Processor Type Reference (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

When working with .inf files that the CAB Wizard will use to create .cab files, you can use a combination of platform labels and version numbers, and processor types to specify the platforms on which your application can be installed.

Target CPUs are identified by a processor type, which in turn is assigned a value. You can obtain this value for your device by calling SYSTEM_INFO.dwProcessorType.
