We haven't had any requests for that before now, but we'll add it to the list. If it supports a command-line or automation interface, you could integrate it using a Run Program or Run Script action.

thanks.

well i just thought if you support eMbedded Visual Studio which is used to generate code for a pocked pc or similar devices, it would be the next step. i think a lot of people which develop code for pocked pc need the plattformbuilder too.

Isn't Visual Studio .NET (and its support for Smart Device project types, which VBP's Make VS.NET action supports) the successor to Embedded VC/VB? From what I can gather on the Windows Embedded web site [1], Platform Builder is used to build customized run-time images for Windows CE devices, whereas Visual Studio .NET and eMbedded Visual C++ are the application development options for developers targeting Windows CE-based devices.
