2. Prerequisites
2.1 Skills Required
IT-9000 application can be developed by the following languages.
- Visual C++ (Native or Manage code)
- Visual Basic .NET
- Visual C# .NET
- Browser based applications (not covered in this guide)
The application developed by C/C++ languages runs at high speed under the operation of the native
environment. On the other hand, the application developed by C++/CLI,VB.NET and/or C#
languages runs slower due to the Manage code.
The following skills or experience are also desirable.
•Windows CE devices
•ActiveSync
•Some networking experience
