The instructions were made more to the point and clearer. Optional and necessary steps are now easier to identify. Change-Id: I3f4dc16b1dc0a7e64ae888ed050d266fa1d59645 Signed-off-by: L.S. Cook <leonax.cook@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Caballero <rodrigo.caballero.abraham@intel.com>

Application Development Workflow
|
|
################################
|
|
|
|
The application development workflow identifies procedures needed to create, build, and
|
|
run a |codename| microkernel or nanokernel application.
|
|
|
|
Before you build
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Check that your Linux host meets the minimum requirements specified in the |codename|
|
|
:ref:`quick_start`.
|
|
|
|
* Check that environment variables have been configured correctly as outlined
|
|
in :ref:`apps_common_procedures`.
|
|
|
|
Workflow
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
1. Create a directory structure for your Zephyr application
|
|
|
|
a) :ref:`Creating an Application and Source Code Directory using the
|
|
CLI`
|
|
|
|
and add a Makefile
|
|
|
|
b) :ref:`Creating an Application Makefile`
|
|
|
|
2. Define the application's default kernel configuration using
|
|
:ref:`Defining the Application's Default Kernel Configuration`.
|
|
|
|
3. Define kernel configuration override options for the application
|
|
using :ref:`Overriding the Application's Default Kernel
|
|
Configuration`.
|
|
|
|
4. For a microkernel application, define objects as you develop code
|
|
using :ref:`Creating and Configuring an MDEF File for a Microkernel
|
|
Application`.
|
|
|
|
5. For all applications, define nanokernel objects as you need them in
|
|
code.
|
|
|
|
6. Develop source code and add source code files to the src directory.
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`Understanding Naming Conventions`
|
|
* :ref:`Understanding src Directory Makefile Requirements`
|
|
* :ref:`Adding Source Files and Makefiles to src Directories`
|
|
|
|
7. Build an application image.
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`Building an Application`
|
|
* :ref:`Rebuilding an Application`
|
|
|
|
8. To test the application image's functionality on simulated hardware
|
|
with QEMU, see :ref:`Running an Application`
|
|
|
|
9. To load an application image on a target hardware, see using :ref:`Platform`
|
|
documentation.
