The DDK is for the CoApp core engine.

Rather than take a dependency on MSVCR100.DLL (or any other Visual Studio DLL), we link against the standard C functions in MSVCRT (which ships with every version of Windows).

It means that we’re restricting ourselves to C rather than C++, but it also frees us from having any dependencies not already on the system.

Why do we need the DDKs? Isn't CoApp for applications and libraries, not device drivers?

The .NET 4 SDK is installed along with Visual Studio…. So yeah, but there isn’t a separate Windows SDK.

The Windows SDK link you provided is the Win 7/.NET 3.5 version. Will we also need the .NET 4 version?

1.       Install (to the default path!):

-          Visual Studio 2010

-          Windows DDK  (http://bit.ly/95Bl28)

-          Windows SDK (http://bit.ly/aAKQxp)

-          Bazaar: http://bit.ly/964shL  (contains cli, gui, and tortoise bzr clients)

-          Putty: http://tinyurl.com/2p6sw4 (SSH Client, contains the PAGEANT tool)



2.       Create/Register a SSH public key with Launchpad

3.       Run Pageant, load your private key.

4.       From the command line:

> cd c:\projects                (or wherever you want to checkout the code)
> bzr branch lp:coapp-solution coapp
> cd coapp
> cscript Checkout-Projects.js

The local.props file contains the location of the DDK (C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\)
If the path is different, you will need to adjust that value in a text editor.


5.       Open up the coapp.sln project in Visual Studio.
Ctrl-Shift-B to build

Everything builds to the ...\coapp\output\<plat>\<debug|release> \bin directory.
(ie: ...\coapp\output\x86\release\bin\CoApp.exe)

This builds the engine, the managed toolkits and the CLI.
It doesn’t really do anything yet, except for parse the command line & print the help.

I don't make the software you use; I just make it better on Windows.
