Sample projects for device integration

Question

Hello,

We are trying to port an existing EW project targeted for our STM32 based Display controller to WebGL so we can see the GUI on a webpage.

Wondering if there are any examples on how to interface the device data (implemented in C/C++) with EW/WebGL platform.

Hello,

Wondering if there are any examples on how to interface the device data (implemented in C/C++) with EW/WebGL platform.

Being intended fo Web applications, WebGL platform uses JavaScript as native language. There is no direct C/C++ integration foreseen. In practice that means that wherever you have added C/C++ native code in your GUI project to communicate with the device, you will need to implement corresponding JavaScript code. Because of the client-server nature of Web applications, this code will usually limit to communicate with a server process running for example on your device. The server process could execute C/C++ code when requests are received from the client (the GUI application running in a Web Browser). The implementation of the communication is a detail of Web programming and less of Embedded Wizard.

I hope it helps you further.

Best regards
