AppItem 

Supports your desktop application in accessing penlet data from a desktop Container. This class represents an application item, which is the compiled penlet code in a JAR on the smartpen. In the container, an application item is identified by a path like this: userdata\[pen serial]\[penlet name]. The penlet name is the fully-qualifed class name of the penlet. It is created by the penlet developer.
Each AppItem contains a collection of one or more InstanceItem objects.
See AppItem Members.

InstanceItem 

Supports your desktop application in accessing penlet data from a desktop Container.
This class represents the instance item, which is the runtime instance of a penlet on the smartpen. Since the smartpen can execute multiple instances of a penlet simultaneously, each instance has a unique ID. Instance IDs are unique within a given smartpen, but may be repeated from one smartpen to another. In the container, an instance item is identified by a path like this: userdata\[Pen Serial]\[Penlet Name]\[InstanceId]. Instance IDs are integers generated by the smartpen system firmware.
Each InstanceItem object contains one or more individual data files,... more 

 

PenItem 

Supports your desktop application in accessing penlet data from a desktop Container.
This class represents a smartpen item. In the container, it is identified by a path like this: userdata\[Pen Serial]. A smartpen is uniquely identified by a 64-bit unsigned integer. As a number, it is called the "smartpen ID" (or, "pen ID"). As a string, it is called the "smartpen serial," (or, "pen serial"). Smartpen IDs are created by Livescribe when the smartpen is manufactured.
Each PenItem contains a collection of one or more AppItem objects.

PenletData 

Supports your desktop application in accessing penlet data from a desktop Container.
The desktop application transfers data from the smartpen to the desktop computer and stores it as a container file. The PenletData object is the top node of an object hierarchy created for you by the PenData API. The hierarchy represents all penlet data in the container and consists of:

• PenItem
  
• AppItem
  
• InstanceItem.
  

Starting with PenletData's collection of PenItem objects, drill down to individual data files for each smartpen. Open an individual data file by passing the file path to the InstanceItem.OpenStream method. Paths to individual files... more
