Specifications

programmers who find it necessary to write codes directly at the

level of device registers. Since register-level programming requires

much effort and time, we recommend that you use the Advantech

DLL drivers instead. However, if register-level programming is

indispensable, you should refer to the relevant information in

Appendix C, Register Structure and Format, or to the example codes

included on the companion CD-ROM.

4.2 DLL Driver Programming Roadmap

This section will provide you a roadmap to demonstrate how to build

an application from scratch using Advantech DLL driver with your

favorite development tools such as Visual C++, Visual Basic, Delphi

and C++ Builder. The step-by-step instructions on how to build your

own applications using each development tool will be given in the

DLL Drivers Manual. Moreover, a rich set of example source codes

are also given for your reference.
