Re: Adding SDK

Sysgen automatically does a MakeImg. You did a "Sysgen", not a "Sysgen
current BSP", right?

Once you have done a full Sysgen of the OS, use the SDK tools in Platform
Builder to create a new SDK, configure it, and generate it. That creates an
MSI file, typically in \wince500\pbworkspaces\<your workspace>\sdk. Install
that and the SDK should show up when you create a new Windows CE program in
eVC/Visual Studio.

As to the basic question, you have two choices: you can build your
application with Platform Builder, as a component of the operating system,
or you can use the *application* development tools, like Visual Studio and
eMbedded Visual C++ to build the application. Which is right depends on
what the application does, whether it's required to be built into the OS,
and how badly you need the nice tools in Visual Studio to work on it.

Hi,

I think I'm getting confused...I've created a new Platform on Windows CE
5.0. I've added usb drivers (on project.bib file) and after doing sysgen
and
copy files to release directory I've run makeimg.

I've downloaded the OS image to my device and everything works.

Now I have e new problem...I hvae headre files and, .dll and .lib
libraries
of the SDK of another devices and I have to run it on my CE device...I
understood that what I had to do is to create a new SDK on my platform
(adding libraries folders), built it and create a new OS image for
downloading to my CE device...however when I try to make a new run-time
image
I obtain an error...

I think there is a concept that I'm not understanding...My objetivo was:
First, make my ce device recognize the other USB device. Second, download
to
my ce deviced the necessary files to allow a subsequent development of
connected device interface. Third, integrate an application for it on my
CE
device. I don't understand very well the proccess explained on MSDN
library....could you give me a short explanation and tell me where can I
learn to do it in the right way?

Thanks in advance!!!
