Native Code Introduction

This chapter covers creating Native Code Win32 Console and Win32 Form applications. A Hello World example will be developed to include getting and displaying the local time. Exiting a Windows Form application is also demonstrated. The applications are developed as OS Subprojects including application debugging over KITL. The local time code is also implemented as a separate Dynamic Link Library (DLL) and as a separate Static Link Library. Various application launch methods are covered including Target Control, as well as redirection of text output to the Debug Window
