Pocket PC | The binary files only (DLL and EXE) for Pocket PC (all versions) | ZIP - ARM, ZIP - MIPS, ZIP - SH3 ZIP - ARM PPC 2002 and later (special edition)*
CE.NET | The binary files only (DLL and EXE) for CE.NET 4.0 and later based devices (Tablets, handheld PC-s with or without keyboards and so on).

Tools
SQLite DBMan | SQLite Database Manager application for PC (desktops). The application is built with ALP (Active Local Pages) and carries the ALP re-distributable files. The package carries own copies of the AXPack1 files needed, but uses them privately not replacing, nor registering them on your system. The installation only copies the application in a directory created for it and places shortcuts in the Start menu and desktop. The SQLite DB Manager allows you create/manage databases for SQLite COM database, create database designs for your applications and so on. Note: If you plan or have installed a development oriented package of ALP 1.2 or later there is no need to download this, because the database manager is included in ALP 1.2 developer oriented downloads. | ZIP, EXE (SFX Install)
newObjects Products/Development environments in which AXPack1 is included and can be used to build applications.
ALP | Active Local Pages - Powerful environment for desktop applications that may run on stand-alone or/and connected machines, directly from removable media (autorun). Includes ALP engine, ALP Frame browser (browser application), ALPInstall (installer tool you can use to re-distribute your work) and so on. The applications can be written by employing Active Server Pages compatible (built-in), CGI compatible (built-in) and other WEB technologies, but they do not require, nor use the network! | ALP start page
IE ScriptBar | newObjects IE ScriptBar is a development set for building toolbars/toolbands for Microsoft Internet Explorer (5.0 and later) in script and/or VB/C++ etc. Any developer with average skills in VBScript/JScript can create nice looking and powerful IE toolbar/toolband applications that integrate with the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser. The sophisticated parts of the work remain hidden because they are performed by the ScriptBar DLL, you write only what does the actual work. | IE ScriptBar page
ASP Compiler | ASP Compiler combines several features. One (which is obvious from the name) is compiling ASP pages to DLL (through VB), but there are other features which may be even more useful - such as Compile Time Scripting (CTS) which gives the developer the opportunity to build conversion, content generation, code generation projects. This can be used to create static content from databases, create simple pages from complex template-like pages that use includes, internal variables, tags and so on. The CTS looks a bit like the client side scripting (often associated with JavaScript), but it is executed during the project build and produces results in the output files - which is the way you can produce static or even active content by implementing your own extensions to the build process. | ASPC page
AXGate | ActiveX Gate allows the developers write complex applications in HTML using the Pocket Internet Explorer in Pocket PC 2003 (Windows Mobile 2003) and later. AXGate features security profiles that allow both usage of almost any ActiveX you need in a WEB page and security measures that will guarantee the device safety. | AXGate page
Script Service | Write Windows service in script. The service is not just executed in the background but it is also alive and accessible for the other COM applications on the same machine and they can call it/use it as a central coordinator for some activities, scheduler for long lasting tasks and so on. | Script Service page
There are also other products of ours that are not listed here or products that may benefit from external tools built for them using the AXPack1 Family.

* - This version supports a few additional features available only on the Pocket PC 2002 platform and later. To keep the re-distributions clean we recommend using the standard PPC binaries for public applications. This special edition is recommended for private/internal applications only.

** - Note that the user interface of the MicroHost application included is not especially designed for smartphone platforms. The library files (DLL) have no user interface and are not platform specific and will work correctly on any CE.NET based platform - including smartphone.
