Here is a little introduction to this developing environment:   ==IGEP SDK Virtual Machine==The IGEP SDK Virtual Machine is a ready to use virtual machine that includes all the developer tools for IGEP Technology. You can download it for free from the ISEE website. ===Features===* Includes the official Software Development Kit (SDK) from ISEE with:** '''IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain''' (see description below)** '''Eclipse IDE''' with Yocto Plug-in and Linux Tools** '''Qt creator IDE''' ===Highlights===* Best choice for beginners* All components are already installed and configured to speed up your developing process* Suitable for VMware and Virtualbox. Compatible with Windows/Linux/MacOS host ===First steps===# Download the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine from the [https://isee.biz/support/downloads/item/igep-virtual-machine-sdk ISEE website]# Follow the steps of the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine [http://www.isee.biz/component/zoo/item/igep-sdk-software-user-manual manual]# Know more in the [[IGEP SDK Virtual Machine]] article ==IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain==The IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain consists on a set of all necessary tools like a cross compiler, embedded libraries, etc. to compile program sources for IGEP devices from a different device, such a PC. You can download it for free from the ISEE website. The '''IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain''' is already installed and configured in the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine (see description above). ===Features===* Compile your projects for IGEP Technology in your own Linux computer* It can be integrated with some popular IDEs such Eclipse, QT Creator and Codeblocks ===Highlights===* Easy to install* Develop in your own Linux machine ===What's included=======IDEs====An Interactive Development Environment (IDE) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain is compatible with the following IDEs: * '''Eclipse''': multi-language software development environment comprising an IDE and an extensible plug-in system. This IDE is a Complete solution with debugging capabilities # If you are using the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine visit: [[How to develop with Eclipse IDE under IGEP Technology]]# If you want to install Eclipse in your computer visit: [[How to install Eclipse IDE]] * '''QT Creator''': This IDE is focused to develop graphical applications: # If you are using the IGEP SDK Virtual Machine visit: [[How to develop with Qt under IGEP Technology]]# If you want to install Eclipse in your computer visit: [[How to install Qt Creator]] * '''Codeblocks''': This IDE is an open source cross-platform IDE which supports multiple compilers including GCC and MSVC. # Know [[Install and configure Codeblocks for IGEP devices|how to install and use Codeblocks]] in your IGEP SDK Virtual Machine (not installed by default) ====Hardware Virtualization====Computer hardware virtualization is the virtualization of computers or operating systems. It hides the physical characteristics of a computing platform from users, instead showing another abstract computing platform. IGEP Processor Boards are compatible with: * '''QEMU:''' it lets run Run your projects applications for IGEP Technology in your own computer ===First steps===# Download the IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain from the ISEE website# Download the Software Reference Manual# Follow the steps of the [[How to setup a cross compiler|IGEP SDK Yocto Toolchain]] article# Visit the [[QEMU]] article in the IGEP Community Wiki   ==IGEP DSP Gstreamer Framework==The IGEP DSP Gstreamer Framework provides all DSP essential packages and the "gstreamer DSP plugin" ready to use with all IGEP Technology Devices. You can download from the ISEE website. ===Features===* Based on TI DVSDK* Focus development efforts on "WOW" features of an application rather than spending time on base functionality.* Enable DaVinci and OMAP devices to use existing applications built on top of GStreamer.* Leverage the modular design to decrease the time required to develop new applications and enable more re-use of existing code ===First steps===# Download the IGEP DSP Gstreamer Framework from the ISEE website# Visit the [[:Category:Work Gstreamer|Gstreamer]] category in the IGEP Community Wiki   =Introducing the IGEP Firmware===About the preinstalled Firmware==All brand new IGEP Processor Boards '''have a preinstalled firmware''' provided and installed on it by ISEE. By default, if you power up your board it will run the software on the flash. But you can prepare a MicroSD card and boot from it by inserting it to the MicroSD card reader of your IGEP Processor Board, as it has more priority than the flash. The pre-installed software consists of: * [[The IGEP X-loader]]: a bootloader compatible with all IGEP Processor Boards.* [[The Linux kernel|IGEP Linux Kernel]]: a Linux Kernel maintained by ISEE.* [[IGEP firmware Yocto]]: the software distribution consists of a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Yocto tools. ==Update the preinstalled software==If you wish to update to the latest available version of the pre-installed software you need to follow these steps: # Download the latest firmware from ISEE in a Linux PC.# Run a script that will automatically setup and create a MicroSD card with the latest software in progressyour host PC.# Then boot your IGEP Processor Board from that MicroSD card you have just created.# Finally, you can write the updated software from the MicroSD to the flash memory on your IGEP device. * For more information visit the [[Update the PRE-INSTALLED software image to a current release]]article. ==Create a MicroSD Card with a different software distribution==You can create a custom MicroSD with a different software distribution. The article [[How to boot from MicroSD Card]] will guide you in the process of creating a MicroSD.
