Introduction; Required System Configurations; Dcp - Symbol MC3000 User Manual

Introduction

To develop applications to run on the mobile computer, use one or both of the following:
• Symbol Mobility Developer Kit (SMDK) for Embedded Visual C 4.0 (eVC4)
• Platform Software Developer Kit (Platform SDK) for MC3000
• Device Configuration Package (DCP) for MC3000.
The SMDK for eVC4 is a development tool used to create native C and C++ applications for all Symbol mobile computers. It includes
documentation, header files (.H), and library files (.LIB) for native code application development that targets Symbol value-add APIs.
The Windows CE Platform SDK for MC3000c42 is used in conjunction with the SMDK for eVC4 to create Windows CE applications
for the MC3000 mobile computer. The Platform SDK installs a new Windows CE device type and its associated libraries onto the
development PC. This new device is added to the Active WCE Configuration field of Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 (eVC4).
The DCP is required to create and download hex images that represent flash partitions to the mobile computer. The DCP includes
documentation, flash partitions, Terminal Configuration Manager (TCM) and the associated TCM scripts.
