Embedded XP and TPC

Is anyone using Windows Embedded XP on TPC development?

And can comment on the pros/cons including differences wrt Windows CE & using NI Touch Panel Module - especially graphics?

I am interested to know the differences as the TP Module and Windows CE can be a pig to program compared to standard LabVIEW and Windows XP - don't take my word - go ahead try it smile.gif

Hi jg code,

 

It looks like you got a response on the LAVA forum, but I thought I'd put a response on this thread as well.  The fundamental difference between targeting a TP that has XPe and one running another mobile OS is that the compiled code for XPe will have the ability to retain almost the exact functionality of LabVIEW running on full XP.  This is the beauty of running XPe.  When we compile for Windows Mobile, CE, etc.. we are forced to compile the LabVIEW code for an operating system that LabVIEW was not designed to innately run on.  This all means that targeting XPe will make your VIs consistent with LabVIEW running on XP, whereas when targeting a mobile OS there are considerable differences (as you have noticed).

 

I hope this helps!
