How to Use the BSP for the ARM Integrator AP SDB
You can use the sample board support package (BSP) provided by Platform Builder to quickly evaluate the new Windows CE .NET operating system (OS) features on the ARM Integrator AP standard development board (SDB).
For more information about the sample BSPs included in Platform Builder for ARM microprocessors, see ARM Board Support Packages.
Hardware and Software Assumptions
You included support for ARMV4I microprocessors when you installed Platform Builder 4.2. If you did not, reinstall Platform Builder.
Note The ARMV4I is an ARMV4 build that supports interworking, which enables the ARMV4I to handle 32-bit code to and from 16-bit code jumps. The ARMV4 kernel image is the same as the ARMV4I kernel image, except it does not support interworking. The ARMV4 kernel image is compatible with the Intel SA1100 StrongARM architecture. Once you select your choice of microprocessor support, all the necessary tools and code binaries needed to support the processor architecture are installed.
