Exercise 1
Using Platform Builder with the CEPC Emulator
The purpose of this exercise is to guide you through the high-level steps of
creating and configuring a platform, then building an operating system Image.
You will be introduced to common tasks that you will use to develop, test, and
export your platform and applications. You will run the operating system image
on the new hardware Emulator, familiarizing yourself with the steps of
downloading an image to the Emulator for Windows CE. In this exercise you
will learn how to:
Create a platform
Verify active configuration
Modify to localize a platform
Build an operating system image
Set up an Emulator connection
Download and boot an operating system image on the Emulator
Create and build an application
Run an application on the Emulator
Export a Software Development Kit (SDK)
Debug using an image built for the Emulator.
To create a platform
1. On the development workstation, launch the Platform Builder application.
2. On the File menu, click New Platform, and then click Next.
3. From the list of available BSPs, select EMULATOR:X86, and then click
Next.
4. From the list of available configurations, select Web Pad.
5. In the Platform name box, type MyPlatform as the name for your
platform, and then click Next.
Note where does Platform Builder creates directory for your Platform files.
6. Verify that Web Pad is selected, and click Next.
7. Review the Application & Media defaults and click Next to accept the
default values.
8. Review the Networking & Communications defaults and click Next to
accept the default values.
9. Click Done to manually build the image with the Platform Builder
integrated development environment (IDE).
Platform Builder now generates the initial platform files. Progress can be
seen in the status bar at the lower right corner of the IDE.
To verify active configuration
1. On the Build menu, click Set Active Configuration.
- 4 Lab: Using Platform Builder
2. Verify that MyPlatform EMULATOR Win32 (WCE emulator) Debug is
selected.
Note that this window reflects the setting shown in the drop down on the
toolbar. You may also change the active configuration from this drop down.
3. Click OK.
To localize a platform
1. On the Platform menu, click Settings.
2. Verify that in the Settings For box, EMULATOR Win32 (WCE
emulator) Debug is selected.
3. On the Locale tab, from the Locales box, make sure that German
(Germany) is highlighted.
4. From the Default Language drop down, select German (Germany).
5. Click OK to close the Platform Settings dialog box.
To make an operating system image for the Emulator with the kernel
debugger enabled
1. On the Platform menu, click Settings.
2. In the Settings For box, confirm that the MYPLATFORM -
EMULATOR Win32 (WCE emulator) Debug configuration is selected.
3. On the Build Options tab, verify that Enable Kernel Debugger check box
is selected, and then click OK.
4. On the Build menu, click Build Platform.
Note If you are using a release of Platform Builder containing the Technology
Preview of .NET, you will need to click OK to accept the EULA for using this
version. You may select the box for do not display again.
Watch the status bar, lower right corner, for the status monitor application.
These keep track of the state of processes on your target device.
The length of time that Platform Builder takes to build the image depends
on the number of features that are included in the platform. In this exercise,
you are building a large configuration, so the build time will be several
minutes. During this time, data appears in the Build window.
When the Status Monitor bar shows the Build status as Not Building, you
have successfully built the operating system Image. The next step is to
download operating system image to the Emulator.
To set up a connection to the Emulator
1. On the Target menu, click Configure Remote Connection.
2. On the Configure Remote Connection dialog box, click the Services tab.
3. From the Download box, select Emulator – Download Transport.
4. Click the Configure button, review and use the defaults, and then click OK.
5. From the Kernel Transport box, click Emulator – KITL Transport.
6. Click the Settings Tab.
- Lab: Using Platform Builder 5
7. Under Download / Initialize Device, verify that the Connect to Device
check box is selected, and then click OK.
The Remote Services are now configured for the Emulator for Windows
CE, and you are now ready to establish the connection and download the
operating system Image.
To download and boot an operating system image for the Emulator
1. Verify that in the IDE, in the FeatureView window, the MyPlatform
platform is selected.
2. On the Target menu, click Download/Initialize.
Wait until the operating system image appears in the Virtual CEPC window.
This can be a lengthy process, depending on the size of the operating system
image being downloaded. While the image is being loaded, there will be
intermittent activity in the Debug Tab of the Output window, and the Status
Monitor window will indicate that the Target Control (CESH), Target
Messages (CETerm), and the Debugger are in a Waiting state. As the
download proceeds, these services will change to a Running state.
After the operating system image has successfully booted, the Windows CE
operating system is displayed in the Virtual CEPC window.
Note You can move, resize, or minimize the Virtual CEPC window, but you
should only close it when instructed to do so.
To create and build an application
1. In the Platform Builder, on the Target menu, click Disconnect, and then
click OK.
2. On the Emulator menu of the Emulator, click Shut Down, select Turn off
Emulator, and then click OK.
3. In the Platform Builder, on the File menu, click New Project or File.
4. In the New Project or File dialog box, click the Projects tab, and then
verify that the WCE Application is selected.
5. In the Project Name text box, type Hello, and then click OK.
6. Select A typical "Hello World!" application, and then click Finish.
7. On the Build menu, click Build Hello.exe to build the application.
When the Status Monitor window shows the Build status as Not Building,
your application has been built. You will also see the following in the Build
tab of the output window:
Hello.exe – 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
By completing this step, you have successfully created an application. You
are now ready to run that application on the emulator.
To run a program on the Emulator
1. On the Target menu, click Download/Initialize.
- 6 Lab: Using Platform Builder
The Emulator appears, and your localized operating system image executes
in this window after being successfully downloaded.
2. In the Platform Builder, on the Target menu, click Run Programs.
3. In the Available Programs box, select Hello.exe, and then click Run.
Hello.exe is then downloaded from the development workstation and is run
on the Emulator.
By completing this step, you have executed a user created application on the
Emulator. You are now ready to export an SDK.
To create and export an SDK for eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0
1. On the Target menu, click Disconnect, and then click OK.
2. On the Emulator menu of the Emulator, click Shut Down, and then click
OK.
3. On the Platform menu, click Configure SDK, and then click Next.
4. Enter information in the required fields, and then click Next.
5. Verify both .NET Compact Framework and eMbedded Visual C++ v4.0
support is checked, and then click Next.
6. Inside the dialog window, click the link Build my SDK now.
7. Click OK to the .NET warning dialog.
The Wizard displays information while the SDK is being built.
8. When the build is complete, click Done to close the Platform Export SDK
Wizard.
Your SDK is in \Wince400\Public\MyPlatform\SDK\Myplatform.msi.
Congratulations. After successfully completing all the steps in this exercise, you
have created a Windows® CE SDK for the Emulator environment.
