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.
Programming Tools
Programmers can develop application programs with their favorite
development tools:
q Visual C++
q Visual Basic
q Delphi
q C++ Builder
For instructions on how to begin programming works in each develop-
ment tool, Advantech offers a Tutorial Chapter in the DLL Drivers
Manual for your reference. Please refer to the corresponding sections
in this chapter on the DLL Drivers Manual to begin your programming
efforts. You can also take a look at the example source codes provided
for each programming tool, since they can get you very well-oriented.
The DLL Drivers Manual can be found on the companion CD-ROM.
Or if you have already installed the DLL Drivers on your system, The
DLL Drivers Manual can be readily accessed through the Start
button:
Start/Programs/Advantech Driver for 95 and 98 (or for NT)/Driver
Manual
The example source codes could be found under the corresponding
installation folder such as the default installation path:
\Program Files\Advantech\ADSAPI\Examples
For information about using other function groups or other develop-
ment tools, please refer to the Creating Windows 95/NT Application
with DLL Driver chapter and the Function Overview chapter on the
DLL Drivers Manual.
