Getting Started
Installation
On Windows host, installation is performed automatically by InstallShield.
On Linux host, you will need first to unpack the package using tar
utility and then launch the doinstall
script located at the toplevel
directory. In both cases, you will be prompted for an installation directory
for the simulator and the example
(later referred to as GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR
).
Setting your environment
In order to set your environment for GNATemulator you need to do on Windows:
set PATH=%GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR%\bin;%PATH%
And on Linux:
export PATH=$GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR/bin:$PATH
Where GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR
is the root directory of your
installation.
If you need to build your own devices using GNATBus, then you should also do on Windows:
set GPR_PROJECT_PATH=%GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR%\share\gpr;%GPR_PROJECT_PATH%
And on Linux:
export GPR_PROJECT_PATH=$GNATEMULATOR_INSTALL_DIR/share/gpr:$GPR_PROJECT_PATH
Note that if GNATemulator has been installed in the same location as your
native compiler then you don’t need to modify GPR_PROJECT_PATH
environment variable.
