Hardware And Software Requirements - Intermec Janus 2010 User Manual

JANUS Application Simulator User's Manual
With the JANUS Application Simulator, you can debug the logic and syntax
of a JANUS application, but not the user interface or performance:
Because JANUS applications are DOS applications, you must use a DOS-
application debugger, not a Windows-application debugger. For example,
you can use Codeview for DOS, but not Codeview for Windows.
Use the JANUS Application Simulator and this manual in conjunction with
the programming software and documentation provided with your reader.

Hardware and Software Requirements

To run the JANUS Application Simulator, you need a PC with this
hardware:
You must have already installed this software on your PC:
1-4
The Simulator helps you debug logic and coding errors by allowing you
to use development tools and debuggers common in the software
industry. For example, if you are using Microsoft Visual C++ to create
JANUS applications, you can use Microsoft Codeview for DOS to test
the applications. The Simulator runs in the background, transparent to
your development software.
The Simulator does not help you test the user interface or performance of
the application. You can test those characteristics of the application far
better on a JANUS reader than on any simulation program. You should
always test your application by running it on a JANUS reader after you
have finished debugging the logic.
