4 embedded Visual Tools embedded Visual Tools 3.0 Standalone IDE for development of applications for WinCE3.0, built with Platform Builder 3.0 Use to create native applications where direct access to operating system APIs required Processor intensive Device drivers Code that runs natively on the device More like VBScript than Visual Basic 6.0 Only data type is Variant Code is interpreted at runtime Performance not as good as native applications (embedded Visual C++) or managed applications (.NET Compact Framework) MS;.NET Compact Framework is recommended for most new development Cannot create COM objects embedded Visual Basic is not recommended for future development

5 embedded Visual C New version of embedded Visual C++ Use to build applications for Windows CE.NET Identical in appearance to evc++ V3.0 SDK allows access to new features in Windows CE.NET Can be installed alongside embedded Visual C Visual C Free download from

8 .NET Compact Framework Fact High performance runtime on the device Code compiled to native code by JIT compiler Runtime allocates memory, Garbage Collector deletes unreferenced objects No memory leaks! Runtime guarantees type safety, prevents buffer overruns and other common programming errors Developers work with classes in the Base Class Libraries (BCL) File handling, I/O, Windows GUI, data access, XML document processing, XML Web Services etc.. Provides an abstraction from the complexities of the underlying operating system.net Compact Framework implements a compatible subset of the classes in the desktop.net Framework Benefit Developer Tools fully integrated into Visual Studio.NET Same developer tools for desktop and mobility devices Same programming languages Class Libraries are a subset of those on the deskop Where a class or method is supported, usage is identical Easier than WinCE API, ATL or MFC Remote debugging on emulator/real device Simple access to new technologies such as XML Web Services More productive developers!
