| Hello,
Is it possible to compress a cab file (modifying compilation options, or
whatever)?
Regards,
Agnes

| SmartPhone CABs are compressed. WM 5.0 CabWiz has /compress switch for that.
SP 2003 CabWiz would compress anyway.
Best regards,
Ilya

| Hello Agnes,
If the "/compress" switch is provided when building a CAB file with
CabWiz.exe, the resulting CAB file will be compressed. Please note that
Pocket PC versions 2003 and earlier do not natively handle compressed CAB
files.
Thanks,

| I forgot to say that I am working on VS2005. There is no compression option
in the Cab project properties. Where can I check if the /compress switch is
activated??
Thank you,
Agnes
