Chapter 7 - Manage the Computer Develop RFID Applications If you want to develop RFID applications, use the Basic Reader Interface (BRI). For more information, see the Basic Reader Interface Programmer's Reference Manual. Package Your Application For very simple applications, the executable file may be the only file you need to deploy. More typically, you will have a set of files to install. Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications. The computer uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install third-party .cab files. Choose a Target Location You can have your .cab file place your application in any of these memory locations on the mobile computer: • The ObjectStore. • The optional microSD card. Depending on available disk space, you may want to consider installing your application files on the microSD card. Using a card creates the Storage Card folder on the computer. • The non-volatile Flash File Store. Applications and data in the Flash File Store will persist through a clean boot. Note: The Flash File Store is erased if you reflash the operating system image. Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the computer as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate location. When AutoRun is installed on the computer, all .cab files in the CabFiles folder are automatically extracted after a cold boot. For more information about AutoRun, see the Intermec Developer Library Resource Kit Developer Guide. 108 70 Series Mobile Computer User Manual

Develop RFID Applications
If you want to develop RFID applications, use the Basic Reader
Interface (BRI). For more information, see the
Basic Reader Interface
Programmer’s Reference Manual
.
Package Your Application
For very simple applications, the executable file may be the only file
you need to deploy. More typically, you will have a set of files to install.
Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications. The
computer uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install
third-party .cab files.
Choose a Target Location
You can have your .cab file place your application in any of these
memory locations on the mobile computer:
The ObjectStore.
The optional microSD card. Depending on available disk space,
you may want to consider installing your application files on the
microSD card. Using a card creates the Storage Card folder on the
computer.
The non-volatile Flash File Store. Applications and data in the
Flash File Store will persist through a clean boot.
Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the
computer as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate
location. When AutoRun is installed on the computer, all .cab files in
the CabFiles folder are automatically extracted after a cold boot. For
more information about AutoRun, see the
Intermec Developer Library
Resource Kit Developer Guide
.
Note:
The Flash File Store is erased if you reflash the operating system
image.
