An example UPDD API program, cbconsole, shipped with source code, has been created to demonstrate the UPDD API interface and can be downloaded from here.

The cbconsole sample is a simple console mode application to illustrate use of the UPDD API in the most basic form, without the complexities of a GUI interface. This sample is intended as a starting point for integration of the UPDD API especially for projects on non-windows systems.

In addition to illustrating the initialisation of the API interface, the example shows how to enumerate the list of defined devices, and then read touch data from them.

This example was written for and tested on Solaris. To build the software on a Solaris system use

make –f Makefile.sol

the target is created in .obj.sol/

The makefile can of course be simply adapted for any target system.

The example output is shown below.
