HIO2 Sample Demos

Location

$REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/build/demos/hio2demo

Compilation

Each demo consists of two parts: the target side and the host side.

[Target side]

Change directories to $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/build/demos/hio2demo and enter make. The executable programs (.elf files) will be generated under $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/build/demos/hio2demo/bin/RVL/.

[Host side]

Change directories to $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/build/demos/hio2demo and enter make X86 = TRUE. The executables (.exe files) will be generated under $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/X86/hio2demo/.

Prebuilt demos are available under

$REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/RVL/bin/demos/hio2demo/ (Target side)
$REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/X86/hio2demo/ (Host side)

These files are overwritten when you compile the demos.

Execution

To run an application on the host side, move to $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/X86/hio2demo/ in the bash shell called from RVL_NDEV.bat and execute the .exe file.

Note: This must be done due to the fact that these programs use dll files in the /X86/bin/ portion of the SDK install directories and that path settings are made inside RVL_NDEV.bat. Note that applications cannot be started from Explore or under other conditions where the path has not been set.

To run the target side application, go to $REVOLUTION_SDK_ROOT/build/demos/hio2demo/bin/RVL/ and do one of the following:

To execute the program, run the ndrun script using a .elf file as an argument.
Run ide with a .elf file as an argument (if you want to debug with CodeWarrior).
