Building the Intelligent Device
Platform XT Runtime Software
This section describes how to use the Host System to build an Intelligent Device
Platform XT runtime file system and operating system that can be installed onto the
Target Device.
If you use Eclipse* or if you prefer a GUI-based development environment to build
your Board Support Package, then see
for instructions on using Wind River
Workbench to create an Intelligent Device Platform Project.
Build Requirements
6.1
The build process requires two folders on your Host System at the same level as the
WindRiver
and
Install
folders:
•
Project
- The project folder in which you will develop your Intelligent Device
Platform XT-based solution. The build requires approximately 40 GB of free
space in this folder.
•
Project/build-cache
- The folder where the build cache is stored. Using a
build cache can significantly reduce the time required to build the project after
incremental changes are made. The build requires approximately 10 GB of
free space in this folder.
Create these folders before proceeding. You can substitute different names for these
folders if desired. Use these commands to create the folders:
cd $HOME
mkdir Project
mkdir Project/build-cache
Wind River Linux Configure Command
6.2
Go to the
Project
folder. Use command:
cd $HOME/Project
.
Configure the Wind River software build using the
configure
command. A typical
configure
command for creating software for the Target Device in this kit looks like
this:
Note:
The ‘\’ symbols in the command tell the Linux command line interpreter to ignore the
following return or newline. The configure command above does not need the ‘\’
symbols if the full command is on one line.
