SYMPTOMS
Attempting to run an application built with the products listed above results in the following message:
where <app-name> is the name of the application being run.
CAUSE
The application was not built for the correct processor platform.
RESOLUTION
You can determine what processor is used on a specific device by clicking [Start|Settings|System|General]. The processor type is displayed in the "System:" section under the heading "Processor Type:".
To build for a particular processor platform, your Visual C++ project must contain a configuration for that platform and the configuration must be the active configuration when you build the application.
- Use the following steps to select the active configuration:
- Choose [Build|Set Active Configuration...] from the Microsoft Developer Studio menu bar.
- Select the configuration for the desired processor Platform and click [OK]. If the desired configuration is not present, use the next procedure in this article to add one.
- Use the following steps to create a new configuration:
- Choose [Build|Configurations...] and click the [Add...] button.
- Choose the new processor platform in the "Platform:" field.
- Choose a configuration name and a configuration to copy settings from, then click [OK].
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
