CVRA NIOS 2 Code & libraries

To build on Linux (should work on any UNIX, but not tested) :

cd /path/to/repos/
mkdir build
cd build && cmake ..
make

To build just for a single robot :

make debra
make nastya

Cross compiling for the robot is more complicated, as for now we dont have any standard makefiles to cross compile. For now you should create a blank project in Nios II SBT, and then add all the C files to the build by right clicking them and choosing "Add to NIOS II build...". Then you can add the subfolders of modules to the include path (look in the Makefile for ALT_INCLUDE_DIRS). In the long run we will probably setup our own system to be able to cross compile with nios2-gcc only, without using any other Altera tools.

Organisation of the source code

The source code is organised like this :

nios2
|-- debra
|-- doc
|-- include
|-- modules
|-- nastya
|-- nios_files
|-- tools
