Another comment the “Beyond BIOS” book Helloworld,c could be used in any UEFI
|EFI system. This is because it is using the UEFI Services directly for
ConOut and ConIn. In contrast, the AppPkg\Applications\Hello would need the
EDK II library UefiLib compiled with it and it also has a dependency on the
Shell library UefiShellCEntryLib to use the Argc/Argv parameters.

Bios
The Hello in the AppPkg\Applications\Hello\ uses the “Print” function that is
part of the UefiLib Library. While the Helloworld.c in the Beyond BIOS book is
making a call using the EFI_SERVICES SystemTable pointer that is passed into
its entry point.
Both are correct and both are current.
For writing and compiling look at the links for
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=Getting_Started_with_EDK_II
This show how to compile EDK II in several OS/Compiler environments
For another example:

Subject: [edk2] regarding the chapter 4 sample program in the book Beyond Bios
Hello
I'm reading the Beyond Bios book in conjunction with the stuff on tianocore.
The example code in chapter 4 of that book talks about a HelloApplication. The
format looks different from the sample code in AppPkg\Hello directory of the
EDK2 src. Is that format/api shown in the book obsolete? The book does not
say how to compile it or even where to put it and I am confused.
