Mobile application approaches Microsoft mobile development Smart Device Programmability Local Code Software Platform (Pocket PC, Smartphone, etc.) Mobile Web Browser.NET Compact Framework and Native APIs

Compact Framework design goals Target mobile and embedded devices Portable subset of.NET Framework No new ‘compact’ namespaces C# and Visual Basic.NET compiler support Leverage Visual Studio.NET Run managed.EXEs and.DLLs directly Debug with Visual Studio.NET Peacefully co-exist with host OS Run on native threads, P/Invoke to native code

Compact CLR common features Verifiable type safe execution No uninitialised variables, unsafe casts, bad array indexing or bad pointer arithmetic Garbage collection No reference counting and no leaks JIT compilation Error handling with exceptions Common type system Call, inherit, and source-level debug across different languages

Compact CLR differences No install-time JIT (nGen) No reflection emit No remoting Client web services are fully supported COM Interop Runtime Callable Wrapper (RCW) CLR hosting not available – no managed COM objects No Code Access Security Subsets of other areas of functionality

Compact Framework Sizes: CF v1.0: 1.5MB in ROM CF v2.0:2.5MB in ROM / comp. RAM Runtime: ~1MB required for first application
