.<strong>Net</strong> Compact Framework<br />
Aalborg University, <strong>Mobile</strong> Device Group<br />
The .<strong>Net</strong> Compact Framework (CF) is a<br />
stripped-down version of .<strong>Net</strong> for memoryconstrained<br />
devices<br />
Functionality not useful to mobile devices has<br />
been left out<br />
The number of overloaded functions in the<br />
class library has been reduced<br />
Result: a light version at 8% size of full .<strong>Net</strong><br />

Aalborg University, <strong>Mobile</strong> Device Group<br />
.<strong>Net</strong> & <strong>C#</strong> development easily accomplished<br />
in Microsoft Visual Studio<br />
– Includes graphical drag’n’drop GUI editor etc.<br />
It is also possible to develop .<strong>Net</strong> CF <strong>and</strong> <strong>C#</strong><br />
applications using freely available compiler<br />
tools <strong>and</strong> <strong>Windows</strong> <strong>Mobile</strong> device emulator<br />
from Microsoft<br />
– Simpler but free development tools<br />
