PocketBuilder system requirements

Table 1-1 shows system requirements for the PocketBuilder development and runtime environments.

Although PocketBuilder applications can be deployed to a storage card, installing the PocketBuilder runtime engine to a storage card is not recommended. All PocketBuilder DLLs and PKDs should be kept in main memory unless you are sure that the device will not be turned off or that the storage card will not be removed while the executable is running.
