The platform specific (optional) batch files premakimg.bat and postmakeimg.bat are extremely helpful to cusomize the makeimg buildstep. But what if something went wrong? Unfortunately setting exiting the script with an errorlevel
</span><br />
<span class="fullpost"></span><br />
<pre><span class="fullpost">exit /B 1
</span></pre>
<span class="fullpost">
doesn't help. makeimg.exe simply doesn't catch those cases.
But there is a simple solution to workaround that problem: Accidentally I found out that makeimg.exe reports syntax errors. So, why not abuse that. Simply write the following lines in the error label of your scripts:
<pre>@ECHO The following lines 'if(...)' are a hack to make makimg.exe stop further processing (exit /B 1 doesn't work)
if 1==2(
)
exit /B 1
</pre>
Have fun,

Fortunately we had to switch quite late and so we benefit from the blood and sweat of our developer colleagues all over the world :-D
Thank you, Simeon Pilgrim, for your excellent post (<a href="http://simeonpilgrim.com/blog/2011/01/28/wince-sdk-problems-in-windows-7/">WinCE SDK problems in Windows 7</a>) - it solved our problems straightway.

<span style="color: #363636; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">HTML5
is everywhere right now. And with good reason. This platform can add
functionality and capabilities to your device, extending the lifecycle of a current
product and preparing applications for future platforms. It is ideal for
devices built on Windows Embedded Compact and Windows Embedded Handheld. John
Traynor, Vice-President of Products at Bsquare will share insight into the
growing popularity of this platform and share a demonstration of HTML5
applications. Join us and find out how HTML5 affects your current and future
products. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
