7. access the Internet through the simulator. The operation steps are as follows. Then the browser in the palm can access the Internet, and you can use wget and other commands in the Linux Shell.

Set the IP address to be different from that of the local machine. Do not change the value of the mask. After the modification, the local machine may not be able to access the Internet.

8. Use Putty to connect:

Putty.exe is displayed in the SDK/binin the installation directory of the palm. Double-click it and enter the IP Address: localhost or virtualbox. The port is 5522. Click login and then log on with the root user (the password is also root ). Then you can see the Linux Shell.

9. transfer files

There are two methods for transferring files. One is to use pscp (this file is usually available after putty is installed ), the following command copies the items in the/usr directory of the VM to the output directory of drive C.

Pscp-r-SCP-l root-PW root-P 5522 localhost:/usr C:/Output

The other method is to use winscp, which can be connected according to the input information (note that SCP should be selected for the Protocol)

An error dialog box appears during logon. Click OK.

Then you can transfer files like FTP software, for example.

10. Preliminary Program Development

U template Program Generation Command: palm-Generate Test, will generate a test folder, which is a program template, of course, there is no content in this program. Simply display one page

U template packaging command: palm-package test will package the program into a. IPK file, such as com. yourdomain. test_1.0_all.ipk:

U is installed in the simulator: palm-install com. yourdomain. test_1.0_all.ipk, and the program is installed in the simulator.

U to be developed in eclipse, please refer to the http://www.treo8.com/bbs/viewthread.php? Tid = 127046
