It is possible to run an entire Contiki system as a program under
|
|
Microsoft Windows.

The Microsoft Windows port of Contiki is built using the Microsoft
|
|
Visual C++ compiler which is available for free from Microsoft's web
|
|
page (registration required though). Follow the instructions on the
|
|
link below carefully:
|
|

|
|
|
|
If you intend to around play with network I/O, get Ethereal:
|
|
- It's a great free network analyzer.
|
|
- It uses (and therefore installs) WinPcap that is used by Contiki network I/O
|
|
too.

|
|
Doubleclicking contiki-2.x\\platform\\win32\\contiki.sln should bring up the
|
|
IDE and load the Contiki 'solution'. This takes some time if done for the
|
|
first time as the source is scanned and quite some meta data gets
|
|
generated.
|
|
|
|
Select 'Build' and then 'Run' from the menu. (Or 'Build solution' from
|
|
the 'Build' menu and press F5 to run/debug the program.) This should
|
|
bring up Contiki inside a new command prompt window.
|
|
|
|
Depending on your settings for command prompt windows the mouse
|
|
should work right away with Contiki.
|
|
|
|
Resizing the command prompt window running Contiki is handled by
|
|
Contiki.
|
|
|
|
Beside the Contiki Quit menu entry you can safely use Ctrl-C for a clean
|
|
exit. You'll notice that when running Contiki from an open command
|
|
prompt window (that therefore doesn't close on Contiki exit): The caption,
|
|
colors, cursor, ... are restored.
