Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
CN4 Mobile Computer User’s Manual 73
If you need to cold boot the CN4, files copied to any of these locations
are safe as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate
location. When AutoRun is installed on the CN4, all .cab files in the
CabFiles folder are automatically extracted after a cold boot. For more
information about AutoRun, see the Intermec Developer Library
Resource Kit Developer’s Guide.
When you clean boot the CN4, all applications and data files in the
ObjectStore are erased. The CN4 loads only the default files and
programs required by the CN4 operating system. If you want to keep
your applications (and configurations) during a clean boot, make sure
that the _sstransferagent.xml is updated and is in this directory:
• \Flash File Store\UserAutoInstall
During the clean boot, the CN4 runs this .xml file once and the
specified files in the Flash File Store are copied to the CabFiles folder,
and then they are run.
Installing Applications on the CN4
You can install files and applications on the computer by using:
• SmartSystems Foundation.
• Microsoft ActiveSync.
• a miniSD card.
• the CN4 FTP server.
For more information on installing applications, see the Intermec
Developer Library Resource Kit Developer’s Guide.
Installing Applications Using SmartSystems Foundation
Console
You can use the SmartSystems console to drag-and-drop Intermec
applications onto your CN4. The console is part of SmartSystems
Foundation. For more information, see “Managing the CN4 With
SmartSystems Foundation” on page 44.
