SUMMARY

When Platform Builder abstracted the complicated environment and minimized the need to dwell into Compact 7’s build system, developers new to the Compact 7 OS design development may underestimate the level of difficulty involved in OS design development when a quality BSP for the target device is not available, and fail to invest sufficient effort to learn about the Compact 7 build system.

Understanding the build system provides one of the key puzzles to help you fully grasp the whole Windows Embedded Compact 7 development environment and advantages. With thorough understanding of the Compact 7 development environment, you are equipped with the proper knowledge to source the correct hardware platform for your target device, with the required software support components to minimize unexpected development challenges and to put together a more accurate and predictable project development plan.
