The CN3 runs applications programmed in Microsoft Visual
Studio 2005. You can also use Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++
4.0 to program applications, but some features may not be
available. Use this section to understand the hardware and
software you need to develop a new application for the computer.
Use the Intermec resource kits to develop new applications to run
on the CN3. The Intermec resource kits are a library of C++ and
.NET components grouped by functionality that you can use to
create applications for the computer. The resource kits are part of
the Intermec Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded
from the Intermec web site at www.intermec.com/idl.
You need the following hardware and software components to use
the resource kits:
• Pentium desktop, 400 MHz or higher
• Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or later) or Windows XP
(Home, Professional, or Server)
• For native and managed development, Microsoft Visual
Studio 2005

• 360 MB hard drive space for minimum installation (720 MB
for complete)
• CD-ROM drive compatible with multimedia desktop

There are several ways you can install applications on your
mobile computer:
