A Example Applications
A.1 Overview
The HPI-B client base package contains precompiled example applications. They are invoked
via the command line and can be configured via command line parameters. Each example
application illustrates a certain feature of HPI-B and makes use of the respective HPI-B function
calls.
After extracting the HPI-B client RPMs, the example applications can be found in the following
directory: /opt/motorola/bin. You can obtain information about the command usage by
invoking the application from the command line and providing -h as parameter.
A.2 Example Application Source Files
In order to ease application development and help you to get familiar with the HPI-B API usage,
Emerson provides the source files of the example applications and an example make file. These
files are available as different RPM files, depending on the operating system and CPU
architecture. The naming scheme used for the RPMs is: bbs-hpib-clientsrc-
<version>-1.<CPU architecture>-<distribution>-<os>.rpm
After installing the RPMs, the source files and the example make file are located in the following
directory: /opt/motorola/src/bbs-hpib/clients.
A.3 List of Supported Example Applications
The following is an automatically generated output (based on the files contained in
/opt/motorola/bin and the output obtained via the -h parameter) that describes all HPI example
applications which were available when this manual was written and the usage of these
applications. Note that in the meantime further example applications may have been added or
the functionality of existing HPI example applications may have been changed slightly. The
current usage and fucntionality can always be obtained by invoking the example application
with the -h parameter.
The HPI-B example programs are provided "as is" without any warranty of any kind,
either express or implied. The entire risk as to the quality, operability and execution of
the programs is with you. Should the programs prove to be faulty or incorrect, you
