Professional Windows® Embedded CE 6.0

Appendix C. Sample Applications and OS Design Projects

A series of OS Design and application development exercises is provided throughout the chapters in this book. Some of these projects require certain versions of the programming library and board support package to function. When attempting to compile and build the sample project files provided as part of the software for this book, using mismatched versions of libraries and BSPs will generate errors. This appendix provides more detailed information about the sample projects and shows how to modify the projects to support different versions of the libraries or BSPs, when possible. This appendix also provides information about additional sample projects.

In addition to the code used for the exercises in this book, other code is available for download from

Robotic Remote Control Application

This application uses the TCP/IP network to send commands and retrieve robot sensors' data. There are two parts to the application — the server running on the CE robot and a client application with user interface that runs on a desktop PC or PocketPC equipped with the Wi-Fi wireless network. The robot is equipped with the 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi wireless network.

The client application sends commands and retrieves sensor data from the robot using the wireless network connection.

The full source code for the applications will be posted on the following URL:
