Hart Tools Version Update Information

Version 7.1.1, August 10th, 2011

Hart Tools Structure

The left side is showing the basic structure of the start menu which is subdivided in the areas documentation, examples and SlaveEmbeddedC.

SlaveEmbeddedC is only an advertisement, showing the documentation of the interface of an embedded Hart salve written in C.

By default the installation is done in the application data area of the user of the Hart Tools. This is a path as it follows for example:

Desktop\Walter\AppData\Roaming\

On the left the structure of the directories is shown.

All example projects are delivering their executables to the subdirectory 'Hart Tools 7.1'.

Implementation examples are provided for the HartDLL as well as for the HartX.

The declarations of the interfaces to the DLL are provided in the files in the subdirectories CommonC, CommonC# and CommonVb.

 

Visual Studio Requirements

The examples are based on Visual Studio 2005. They can be easily converted to the Visual Studio Versions 2008 and 2010.

Using the DLL

When using the DLL the first call to the DLL has to be a call of the function BHDrv_ValidateLicense.

HartDLL.BHDrv_ValidateLicense(new StringBuilder("Valid User Name"),
                              new StringBuilder("Valid License Key"));

The correct user name and the license key are provided in the user license certificate.
