  • Page 91: Dll Interfacing

    The purpose of this chapter is to help the you develop your own Bluetooth test applications in the test executive you intend to use. In order to successfully control the E1852B Bluetooth Test Set using the SCPI command set, you must first understand how to link to the supplied E1852B Dynamic Link Library (DLL).
  • Page 92: Dll Interface

    DLL Interface DLL Interfacing DLL Interface The parallel port is used to communicate with the E1852B Bluetooth test set. The commands required for parallel port operation are primitive, involving the use of ‘peek’ and ‘poke’ commands to transfer data and functions. The Dynamic Link Library (DLL) acts as a translator between the SCPI commands and the parallel interface commands.
  • Page 93: Calling Convention

    DLL, it becomes necessary to know the calling convention to use when DLL functions are called. The calling convention used by the E1852B test set DLL is the __stdcall. When C++ is used as the Application Programming language, the calling convention is explicitly specified by the __stdcall keyword in the interface header file E1852Bdll.h.
  • Page 94: General Format

    All commands are structured in a way analogous to the SCPI description. The upper-case letters indicate the short form of the command. The E1852B Bluetooth test set only accepts this short form as an abbreviation (according to SCPI), otherwise the long form is used.
  • Page 95: Explicit Dll Linking

    Thereafter you must retrieve the addresses for each DLL function explicitly. • functionPtr = GetProcAddress(DllHandle, function name) An example is shown below: //---------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Win32 Console Demo Application demonstrating how to use the dll-interface of the E1852B.
