RE: [nsbasic-ce] Re: Function DeviceIoControl in NS Basic
Dear Ben and Martin, Thank you very much for all the info, it's nice to know I'm not the only person who wants to use nsb on an embedded board. The news on the fully licensed win ce 6 is excellent so thanks for letting us know (I hope they will do a version suitable for 5" and 7" lcd's). I downloaded the older win ce 5 files from the nsb downloads page, so hopefully in the next couple of days I'll try installing them. If it works then I'll try to work out the calling convention for the dll (although I've yet to find out where the sdk installer installed the visual c samples, assuming it did). I'm using a mini2440 with touch screen lcd by the way. It was a very good price and works well (except that I don't speak mandarin, so the win ce image is a bit difficult to use). Getting nsb running on it will make a perfect development environment for me. Many thanks again for the replies. Best wishes, Andrew. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nsb-ce" group.

A company that works with Microsoft has bought one each of the boards and displays to produce a robust professional Windows CE package with very low licensing fees. We don't have an exact time, but perhaps within two weeks. The package will be in English with other languages optional.

[nsbasic-ce] Re: Function DeviceIoControl in NS Basic
Andrew I am playing with the demo of NSB still. It works fine, I had to rebuild the WinCE for "English" using the 120 day trial of platform builder 5. as per the instructions I found on the web site of the e-bay supplier. T haven't managed to access the adc, i/o, leds, i2c and push buttons on the board as I cant work out how to 'call' the drivers they supply, and I don't know how to write a driver, I also only have VS2003 and VS2005 up is needed to program for CE. If someone here is up to it (there is some c examples of Linux that works for all the external peripherals) Keep your eyes on www.andahammer.com Martin --- In nsbasic...@yahoogroups.com, Andrew Thomas wrote: > > Dear Ben, > > Thank you very much for letting me know.

The NSBasic runtime on the CuWin3500 came preloaded, but I believe the latest version was loaded when I installed the NSBasic/CE IDE onto my XP desktop. see: http://www.cubloc.com/product/05_01.php The documentation for the mini2440 married to a SBC2440-III motherboard indicates that you have to load the BSP yourself via the Bootloader. Are you using one of the SBC2440-III Single Board Computers or just the mini2440 module? Sorry for any misleading info.

RE: [nsbasic-ce] Re: Function DeviceIoControl in NS Basic
Dear Ben, Thank you very much for letting me know. I'll get the runtimes for the CuWin3500 and give it a go. I tried installing 7.0.4 on the device for programming on it but it didn't work, but maybe I will do better just using the runtime. Nsb and the mini2440 will be an excellent combination.
