Ethernet Debug Libraries (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

The Ethernet debug libraries, which are in the %_WINCEROOT%\Public\Common\Oak\Drivers\Ethdbg directory, encapsulate the basic initialization and access primitives for a variety of common network controller devices. The interface for the libraries is generic enough that both the boot loader and the OS typically use the interface. The boot loader uses the interface for downloading a run-time image and the OS uses the interface to implement a KITL connection to Platform Builder. For more information about KITL, see Kernel Independent Transport Layer.

The following table shows the location of the sample Ethernet debug drivers.
