SDK Installation

About the Software Development Kit (SDK):

Microsoft provides most of the SDK functionality required to support Win-
dows Mobile 5.0. Visit their Windows Mobile site to find documentation and
download the Windows Mobile 5.0 Developer Evaluation Kit.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/windowsmobile

Select

Downloads

and locate the Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Pocket PC.

Follow the instructions to obtain the most recent version.

To use the additional Datalogic SDK functionality, run the Falcon Windows
Mobile SDK installer from the link on your Falcon 4400 Product CD. This
will add the decoder and unit support files required to interface with the addi-
tional Datalogic functions.

A

START

menu group is added for support of the SDK named “

Falcon SDK

for Windows Mobile.” It contains a shortcut called “Help” that will
open the help file.

The files loaded are:
dcd_api.h, decoder.lib, decoder.exp

unit_api.h, unitapi.lib, unitapi.exp

1. In your project, add the appropriate lib files to the list of import

libraries.

2. In each source file which makes calls to the decoding API, or unit

API, include the appropriate header file.

We also provide C++ sample code to demonstrate the use of these SDK func-
tions.

See

UnitAPITest

and

DCDtest

, these are complete Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2

projects ready to run.
