Software Development Kit (SDK)
The .NET Smart Card Framework SDK includes the Card Explorer, a tool for managing .NET cards, and code templates, examples for creating client and server applications that access .NET smart card services.
The Card Explorer (also available as an add-in to Visual Studio .NET) simplifies .NET smart card management with these important functions:
| • | Viewing card contents |
|
| • | Managing card assemblies, data files, and directories |
|
| • | Managing user authentication according to the requirements of the current Access Manager |
|
| • | Creating and deleting services on the card |
The .NET Smart Card Framework sample code templates aid in creating server applications and client applications that can access services running on a .NET card. You can choose to install Visual C++ templates, Visual Basic templates, or both. Each programming language set includes these two templates:
| • | netCard Server template (for creating a server project) |
|
| • | netCard Client Console template (for creating a client project) |
Some components in the .NET Smart Card Framework SDK reside on the client machine:
| • | Gemalto.Smart Card.Runtime - A library containing the client side remoting, CardAccessor, and the IAccessManagerClient interface. |
|
| • | C++ Marshaller - allows application developers to concentrate on building service interfaces on the card without worrying about the implementation of the APDU transport protocol. |
|
| • | Redistributables - The .NET Card components required to deploy your application. |
The .NET Smart Card Framework SDK enhances the process of software development through a useful combination of smart card management tools, sample application templates, and other helpful hints and workarounds.
