Installation of Development Tools (IDEs)
Building applications for the UC-7400-CE computer can be done with a number of friendly
Integrated Development Environments (IDE) tools. Choose the tools based on the application
language you plan to use and install them onto your development workstation.
VB.NET/C# Applications: Use Visual Studio 2005
Microsoft® Visual Studio 2005 is a complete set of development tools for building ASP.NET
Web applications, XML Web services, desktop applications, and mobile applications. Visual Basic,
Visual C++, Visual C#, and Visual J# all use the same IDE, which allows them to share tools and
facilitates the creation of mixed-language solutions.
VB.NET/C# Applications: Use Visual Studio .NET 2003
Visual Studio .NET 2003 is another IDE you can use to develop your applications. Depending on
the language you use, install the proper tools in the following order:
y Install Visual Studio .NET 2003
y Install
Windows® CE Utilities for Visual Studio .NET 2003 Add-on Pack (550KB) for
VB .NET
y Import
Compact .Net Framework SDK
In addition, there are more
development tools available from Microsoft® Web site. Find one for
your suitable use.
C/C++ Applications: Use eMbedded Visual C++ (eVC) 4.0

Download Page. Install the eVC 4.0 tools, and then install the service pack in the following order:
y Install
eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 (230 MB)
y Install
Service Pack 4 for eVC 4.0 (68 MB)
y Install MOXA Windows® CE 5.0 C/C++ SDKs
Steps to Install MOXA Windows® CE 5.0 C/C++ SDKs
