5 Developing and Installing Applications In this chapter you will find guidelines for developing applications using the Software Developer's Kit (SDK) and converting existing Trakker AnĆ tares applications using the Programmer Software Kit (PSK). The CV60 can be ordered with a choice of three operating systems: WinĆ dows CE, Windows XP, and Windows XP Embedded (XPE). The following are references to the operating systems, used throughout this chapter: S CV60 CE refers to Windows CE platform.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications Developing Applications for the CV60 The CV60 Vehicle-Mount Computer runs applications programmed in Microsoft C++ and also run applications developed for the .NET frameĆ work using Microsoft C#.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications Converting a Trakker Antares Application to a CV60 CE Application If you have an existing Trakker Antares application that you would like to run on the CV60, you can use the Programmer's Software Kit (PSK) to convert it. The CV60 PSK is a set of libraries and tools that you use to convert your existing Trakker Antares C applications into C/C++ applicaĆ tions for use on your CV60 CE Data Collection Computer. Note: Only CV60 CE supports the PSK.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications Installing Applications on the CV60 You can install files and applications on the CV60 several ways; if you have a simple application, you might only need to deliver the EXE file. You can simply copy a directory structure that contains the application, supporting files, DLLs, images, sound files, and data files to the device. For CV60 CE, you can package your application as a cabinet (CAB) file.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications Installing ActiveSync and Establishing a Partnership You can use a serial cable to establish your initial partnership between the CV60 CE and your desktop PC. To install ActiveSync and establish a partnership 1 Download ActiveSync from the Microsoft web site and follow the onsĆ creen instructions for installing it on your desktop PC. 2 When the installation process is complete, the Get Connected dialog box appears.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications The Microsoft ActiveSync Screen An ActiveSync icon ( ) also appears on the CV60 CE status bar indiĆ cating that it has established an ActiveSync partnership with your desktop PC. Note: If ActiveSync does not establish a partnership on the first try, the Get Connected dialog box appears on your desktop with the message Your device was not detected." Click Next on the Get Connected dialog box until your device is detected.
Chapter 5 — Developing and Installing Applications CV60 XP/XPE: Mapping a network drive: You can transfer files between your desktop PC and the CV60 XP/XPE by mapping a network drive. To map a network drive, perform the following steps:You may need help from your IT department for some of the following steps. 1 From your desktop, right-click My Network Places, and from the popup menu select Map Network Drive. 2 From the drive drop-down menu, select the drive you wish to map.
