Installing Applications on the CK30
There are several ways you can install applications on the CK30:
• You can package your application as a cabinet (CAB) file.
• If you have a simple application, you may only need to deliver
the EXE file.
• You can copy a directory structure that contains the
application, supporting files, DLLs, images, sound files, and
data files.
Intermec recommends using CAB files to install your
applications. The CK30 uses standard Windows CE CAB files
and will install third-party CAB files. Before the CK30 executes
a CAB file, it marks the file as read-only so that it will not be
deleted after installation. After the CAB file is executed, the
CK30 automatically saves any changes you have made to the
registry or file system so that they will persist through a cold
boot. This process means that you will not have to reinstall your
applications when you perform a cold boot.
