Once the SDK has been installed, put it in your environment:
source <sdk_install_dir>/rce-sdk-Vx.y.z/i86-linux-64/tools/envs-sdk.csh
Review the README and RELEASE_NOTES file contained in each architecture subdirectory.
Introduction
============
The RCE SDK for Linux provides the API, libraries, and tools necessary
to develop software for the RCE platform. It contains pre-built
images, header files, and tools to create custom images.
All included and generated SDK images are targeted for one of the
following platforms:
1) the RCE hardware executing a supported linux operating system.
2) x86 hardware executing a supported linux operating system
SDK Contents
============
bin/
This directory contains host executables and scripts that must be
found via your host's PATH environment variable. Execution of
<SDK_ROOT>/tools/envs-sdk.[c]sh will set your host's PATH environment
variable properly.
doc/
This directory contains API documentation.
examples/
This directory contains host source code examples. When compiled
using the SDK, the resulting images will execute on the host.
include/
This directory contains host include directories and header files that
are to be specified at host image compile time using -I.
lib/
This directory contains pre-built host libraries that can be specified
at host image link time using -l.
tools/
This directory contains:
* installation/maintenance scripts that can be executed on any
supported host platform.
* source code for the host tools compiled with install-sdk.sh
Host Images
===========
The base unit of software functionality on the host platform is the
host image.
A host image:
1) is a binary ELF file containing data and/or executable code.
2) resides on the host filesystem for use at run-time.
3) resides on the host filesystem for use at link-time when creating
other host images.
Supported Image Types
---------------------
Executable - contains code which executes in the context of
a process on the host platform.
Shared library - contains common executable code to be shared
with executable images and other shared library images.
Pre-built images shipped with the SDK use the following file
extensions to denote a host image type:
Shared library image - .so
