CompuScope SDK Manua.. - Egmont Instruments

Sample Programs Folder Structure used inCompuScope SDKsThe default directory for the CompuScope C/C++SDK sample programs is C:\Gage\CompuScope SDKfor Windows\SDK for C-C++\. There are several example programs provided with the CompuScopeC/C++ SDK. These sample programs each reside in their own Windows folder and acquire data usingseveral unique features of the CompuScope cards. Each folder contains all the files that are required tocompile the project in MS Visual C/C++.Each sample program is written to highlight a particular feature of the CompuScope hardware. Forexample, the gage_busmastering project is the simplest sample program that captures a signal on a singleCompuScope card (in dual or single channel mode) and writes the data from all active channels to separateASCII data files. Data transfer is done using PCI bus-mastering.The list of all files contained in the gage_busmastering folder is as follows:Gage_busmasteringGage_busmastering.dswGage_busmastering.dspGage_busmastering.cGage_busmastering.hApp_supp.cApp_supp.hEeprom.hGage_drv.hGage_drv.libStructs.cStructs.hWhichdrv.hDebugGage_busmastering.exeGage_busmastering folder contains a subfolder named Debug. Debug folder consists of thegage_busmastering.exe, an executable built from the gage_busmastering project.The gage_busmastering project can be opened either by clicking on the gage_busmastering.dsw file or fromwithin the MS VC environment. If the project file gage_busmastering.dsw is opened in MS Visual C/C++and is rebuilt, then the executable will be created in the Debug folder.The layout of all other sample programs follow the same format as the one described above for thegage_busmastering project. Sample programs provided with the CompuScope C/C++ SDK have beenbuilt in the Microsoft Visual C 5.0 environment. These sample projects can also be compiled usingBorland Compiler. In order to do this, the user must simply collect the files required for the project andcreate a Borland project. Furthermore, the GAGE_DRV.LIB file must be modified using the IMPLIBfunctionality.Page 28CompuScope SDK Manual
