Topfield Application Program

If you are good at programming with C++ language, you can
make a program executable in the digital receiver. We call
this Topfield Application Program (TAP). In making a TAP,
it is recommended to use Diab compiler of Wind River, whose
web site address is http://www.windriver.com. Some vari-
ants of GCC compiler also might perhaps be available as a
compiler for TAPs. You can get the Application Program In-
terface (API) libraries for TAPs from the Topfield web site,
http://www.i-topfield.com

.

Your TAPs will be run under the following conditions:

•

Their extension name is tap. If they have any other ex-

folder. If they are in other

folders, they will be ignored.

For how to transfer your program to the digital receiver, refer
to § 9.3.

To run a TAP in the digital receiver, perform the following
