PROGRAMMING USING THE .NET COMPACT FRAMEWORK
APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
INTRODUCTION
With .NET Compact Framework coupled with our Talos .NET Framework, C# and VB.NET
programmers can develop powerful embedded applications on the HazPAC R9-8.4 such as mobile,
robotics, home automation, industrial, and a broad range of other embedded applications. The low
cost of licensing for Windows 6.0 CE has created an ideal environment to develop a new generation
of embedded products around the HazPAC R9-8.4.
Our Talos Framework allows access to the more specific I/O sections of the HazPAC R9-8.4
development board such as digital output points, CAN bus, and the serial ports. A complete list of
the API documentation can be found in Windows by clicking Start

Writing .NET applications for the HazPAC R9-8.4 is very similar to writing desktop or console
applications for XP and Vista. The only difference is the amount of resources available. Because the
memory footprint is smaller compared to a desktop computer, care should be taken where
allocation of memory is concerned, such as large object creation.
