How to add my application and hardware to run time image.

Hi, my friends,

I want to change my application from XP pro to XP Embedded.

The application is for hardness test. I wrote the program using VC++ 6.0.
There is an A/D card in the computer to collect analog signal and change
it to digital signal. It provides driver for XP pro. It also has a dll
library I need to call in my c++ program.

It works fine in XP Pro. How do I add the hardware, application and library
to run time image.

Can I use tap to find my A/D ( analog to digital) card? If not how can I add
it to run time image?

Do I have to create a repository before I create a component for my
application?

Thank you ahead.

Best regards,

Larry

Few different ways.
1. You can create components for driver, and application separately, there
are good explanation on how to do that.
2. Or you can just copy required files for program, and driver in
appropriate directories and let PNP do the rest.

First case is probably what most prefer.

Yes, you can. But before you import results to CD or TD, you need to create
component for your driver.
Also you can add manualy component to TD, since you know that it is needed
so you don't need TAP.
Do I have to create a repository before I create a component for my
application?

You can create repository from your component. In CD you can specify
repository that will be created whet you import your component.
