The CN2A runs applications programmed in Microsoft
Embedded Visual C++. The CN2A can also run applications
developed for the .NET Compact Framework using Microsoft
C# and Visual Basic .NET.
Use this section to understand the hardware and software you
need to perform these tasks:
• Developing a new application for the CN2A
• Developing a web-based application for the CN2A
To develop new applications to run on the CN2A, use the
resource kits available as a download from the Intermec
Developer Library (IDL).

Understanding the Resource Kits and Platform SDKs

Each resource kit includes C++ and .NET components grouped
by functionality:
• Antares Migration
• Bluetooth
• Communications
• Data Collection
• Device
• Mobile Gadgets
• Printing
• RFID
Note: Not all resource kits (such as Antares Migration) can be
used with the CN2A.
The IDL also includes a platform SDK for each operating
system. For the CN2A, you need to download the CN2A SDK.
