| Easy-to-Use Development Environment
Working with Windows CE development tools—such as the .NET Compact Framework, Visual Studio 2005, and Platform Builder—ensured PTS Software met its deadline for producing the device’s core applications. Struys says: “Having the single development environment with Visual Studio 2005 for native and managed code helped us develop the device’s applications in seven months.
“We saved up to five months work because we could use one code base for the application layer for two different devices: the Gravel in Home and the Gravel in Pocket. Even though the hardware for both devices differs dramatically, we created one single application for both devices using the .NET Compact Framework.”
The simplicity of the environment also ensures developers familiar with the standard .NET Framework can become good embedded application developers in weeks. Struys says: “A developer doesn’t require a lot of time to become familiar with the .NET Compact Framework. Any managed developer, for example, can programme an application for Windows CE environments in a week or two. It’s a great story.”
