[Globalplatform-users] GPShell Usage Problem

[sunil k. <esu...@ya...>]

Hi everybody,

I am pretty new GlobalPlatform. So if any questions i am asking is so simple for you people, please forgive.

The steps i followed to use this platform for installing  a cardlet ( cardlet is already available ) to a 6131 NFC phone through a pegoda reader are,

1. Downloaded all packages from sourceforge for project Global Platform4.2.3
2. Connected Philips pegoda reader to USB port (usb-drivers already installed.          but i  think pegoda is not PC/SC type reader. Is this type(PC/SC) is necessary     for  GPShell platform?)
3. I enabled the Smart Card service for my XP(SP2) machine. ( is this step             needed)
4. Added path to GPShell folder to PATH env-variable
5. Tried to use default script present in the GPShell directory (ie, helloInstall.txt)
    
which gives the following error : 

Sunil > GPShell.exe helloInstall.txt
enable_trace
establish_context
card_connect
list_readers failed with error 0x8010002E (C)

1. What doesthis mean?
2. In which step i went wrong? or i missed some steps?

 I think the shell is not able to recognize my reader. () 
    1. How can i specify a reader which is connected to my pc?
    2. What are the supporting readers for GPShell ?
    3. I have one PN531 reader also with me. will this help?

I have the following queries:

1. I dont know what all the downloaded packages(GlobalPlatform4.2.3,                     Openplatform, Jopenplatfrom etc) do. What  i know is GPShell1.4.1 can be         used to communicate to a secure-element through a reader. Any help                 towards the defenitions(usage) of all these packages will be helpful for me.
    Also i want to know what is the purpose of all these packages and the relation     ship between them
2. What are all the hardware(smartcard readers) that GPShell supports?
3. Using GlobalPlatform, can i make cardlets?

I know this is a pretty long mail with lot of questions. But any help , directions or corrections is appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.
