It is fairly common however for asian manufacturers to copy names and organization to aid with familiarity of developers internally. A lot of the OS calls are named fairly similar to windows type calls even when they have slight differences or even outright missing behavior. It can honestly get a little annoying.

Nobody at HP can help in any way with breaking open the system. We have not done anything to prevent it and hope that if/when someone does - PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM ANYTHING THAT MESSES WITH THE EXAM MODE (lights, memory, etc). If people start being able to break the exam mode things then we'll have to start screwing with stuff frequently to try and lock things down. Nobody wants that.

On wince....gotcha!

I'm not trying to break open the system. I'm trying to run C code that runs totally indepndently. The only thing the code will do is access the screen for graphics and access a preassigned matrix for input data and another for output results. HP PPL code will then transfer the results to the internal structures using existing interfaces.

I just need to know how to run C code from PPL and pass in a pointer to the input and output matrix. I've suggested that I can pass in the machine code in a third initialized matrix. Then if HP can provide a way whereby I can then run code stored in this matrix?

You provide this, you'll simply have the best math engine out there.

Exam mode would never be touched.

You do know that most customers for this product are NOT kids doing school exams....right? For that TI calculators are more accepted. This is for people that actually use math in their day to day jobs (e.g. I'm an engineer).
I wish calculator manufacturers would stop thinking that exams are the only use for calculators....

Until I get the C code capability, my preferred calculator will be Mathstudio running on android. I'd like to change that to HP Prime....but y'all won't help in that endevour...

Think about it.
