Hi, I've been tasked with researching and building the OS image for some
real-time computers. I'm totally new to XP Embedded (and OS development in
general) and have some questions about what I'm looking at:
1) In Target Designer there is a Component Help Reference that shows a
description and other information about OS components. In the Dependencies
section, some descriptions just say "More Information" -- and when you click
"More Information" you get a list of, say, 10 components. Surely, the
component whose description this is part of is not actually dependent on
EVERY ONE of those 10 components?? Is there some other meaning for this
"More Information" approach?
2) While building a configuration in Target Designer... is there a good
resource somewhere where I can translate a) what I specifically need the
target machine to do, into b) the specific components I should include in the
configuration?
2a) For example, I was told that the target machine should have TCP/IP,
Direct-X, FTP, no desktop, etc. But even though the components are grouped
by funcationality, I still find multiple related components for each of
these, and I don't know which to include. Do I need to get more detailed
information from the client, and if so, what?
Thanks in advance to any help you XPe experts can give me.
