10. Board Support Packages
The following table shows the elements that are contained in a board support package (BSP).
Element
Description
Boot loader
During development, downloads the operating system (OS) images.
OEM adaptation layer (OAL)
Links to the kernel image and supports hardware initialization and management.
Device drivers
Support peripherals on-board or are attached at run time.
Configuration files
Once created, a BSP can be reconfigured through environment variables and .bib and .reg file modifications.

11. Windows CE Boot Loaders
The boot loader is a utility that is an integral part of the OEM device development process and, in some cases, the boot loader is also included in the final OEM product. The general purpose of the boot loader is to place the OS image into memory and then jump to the OS startup routine. The boot loader can obtain the OS image in a number of different ways, including loading it over a cabled connection, such as Ethernet, universal serial bus (USB), or serial. The boot loader also loads the OS from a local storage device, such as Compact Flash, or hard disk. The boot loader may store the OS image in RAM or in nonvolatile storage, such as flash memory, electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM), or some other storage device for later use.

WINDOWS CE TALKING POINTS:
The current version of Windows CE is called Windows CE .NET It was released in June 2003 and included a number of optimizations for specific device categories such as gateways and VoIP phones. These optimizations included sample UI and design templates to help device manufacturers rapidly build these types target devices. We also focused on greater application compatibility between Pocket PC and Windows CE-based devices by including a feature that could easily allow developers to pull in the standard PPC APIs in their CE-based image. This would allow an application written for either device type to be ported to the other without having to recompile.
MACALLAN’S 5 TALKING POINTS:
Macallan is the next version of the Windows CE operating system and will include the following:
Faster Time To Market – talking points include:
Tools synchronization – synching capabilities across the command line and IDE
Production quality drivers out of the box – primary request from customers
Comprehensive solutions (as opposed to “optimizations” for VoIP, gateways, thin clients, and set-top boxes)
Adaptive Device Intelligence - ability for devices to sense and respond to surroundings intelligently
Dr. Watson - Windows crash dump and reporting tool for post-mortem debugging
Benefit: helps improve quality and provides automatic feedback on resolution
Why we are implementing: need to collect data on as many crashes as possible and should be easy to do
UPnP – ability to connect networked devices and manage data transfer in a peer-to-peer environment
Location services - allows applications to adjust their behavior based on the mobile user’s location, and allows the user to customize their experience based on their location.
Multimedia Capture, Encoding - essential for devices such as cameras and set-top boxes that need to manage images
Capture – controls the device by capturing video and still images through Direct Show
Encoding – WMV encoder support – built in SW support so OEMs are not limited solely to hardware for video encoding
Direct3D Mobile - COM based D3D style programming model built on DirectX 8, smaller and faster than D3D API desktop implementation
Enhanced Security – building on all of the work done in previous versions and including additional network security enhancements to existing features, AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), Cryptographic Hardware Accelerator, and L2TP/IPSec server support
VISUAL STUDIO.NET: - The development tools used for creating applications for both Windows XP Embedded and Windows CE.
Across each of these platforms is a powerful and consistent set of application development tools called Visual Studio.NET- it’s here on this slide to show you the application development story that fits so well with the Windows Embedded Family. Visual Studio.NET enables you to use the same familiar and consistent set of tools to develop applications for embedded devices the same way you do for the desktop. Visual Studio.NET 2003 includes the final RTM bits of the .NET Compact Framework, and also includes Smart Device Programmability, enabling you to execute secure, downloadable applications on devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, and set-top boxes.
