2.Tap the Tran button on the Toolbar or use the command on the Tools menu to translate the file into a program you can run on the netBook.

If an error is found during translation, the cursor is positioned at the point in the program where the error is found and an error message is displayed. Refer to the OPL Programming Manual for details of error messages.

3.Once the program has been translated without errors, you can run it.

The translated (executable) file will be given the same filename as the source file, but with the extension .OPO. To run the program from the System screen, highlight it and then tap on it, or press Enter.

Programming options

Three languages are provided to allow you to program your netBook - OPL, C++, and Java.

∙OPL is a BASIC-type language which can be edited and translated on the netBook. For more details on OPL, please refer to the “OPL programming manual” on the CD, or download the OPL32 SDK from the EPOCWorld website, www.epocworld.com.

∙C++ is the native language of the netBook, and allows the greatest access to operating system services. It is necessary to compile C++ programs on a PC - there is a Windows netBook emulator to allow development and debugging to take place on a single machine. The netBook C++ SDK may be downloaded from the EPOCWorld website, www.epocworld.com.

∙Java is a platform-independent language developed by Sun Microsystems Inc. Programs written using Java technology may be run on a variety of computing platforms which have a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The netBook Java SDK (including the netBook JVM) can be downloaded from the EPOCWorld website, www.epocworld.com.
