"They" are working hard on alternatives - Visual Studio .NET 2005 will
be able to generate machine code (several processors) for Windows CE
from C or C++ sources - without .NET, but with support for C++ standard
library, Windows CE API and MFC (yuck). It will be also able to compile
CLI (.NET) for Windows CE, but it does not matter here. I do not know if
this code will be actually generated by MSVC8, or some other compiler in
the bundle.
