Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications

Developing Applications for the CK31

The CK31 Handheld Computers run applications programmed
in Microsoft Embedded Visual C++. The CK31 can also run
applications developed for the .NET Compact framework using
Microsoft C# and Visual Basic.
Use this section to understand the hardware and software you
need to:
• develop a new application for the CK31.
• develop a web-based application for the CK31.
• convert a Trakker Antares application to a CK31 application.

Developing a New Application

Use the Intermec SDK to develop new applications to run on
the CK31. The Intermec SDK is a library of C++ language
functions you can use to create applications for the CK31.
See the SDK online user's manual for help developing your
application. The Intermec CK31 SDK User's Manual contains
hardware and software requirements, all of the functions that are
supported by the CK31, and how to use these functions. The
SDK is part of the Intermec Developer's Library (IDL), which is
available on CD (P/N 235-114-001) or as a download from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com.
You need these hardware and software components to use the
Intermec SDK:
• Pentium PC, 400 MHz or higher
• Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or later) or Windows XP
(Home, Professional, or Server)
• For native C++ development, Microsoft eMbedded Visual
C++ version 4.0 with eVC++ Service Pack 2
• For .NET Development and Compact Framework (C# and
VB.NET), Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003
• 128MB RAM (196MB recommended)
