How to use the Bios Library

This page sums up how to import the bios layer and how to use it in a new project. For all the information of the library's interfaces, please read the doxygen documentation.

Requirements

Ensure that you have a $AR_CMD environment variable pointing on the "pic30-ar" application.

Build the library

Once the project is imported into your Eclipse workspace, let's compile it to create the static library "bios.a". Go to the properties of the bios project and select your target in C/C++ build > Settings > Manage Configuration. Let's build it.

The archive has been successfully created.

Create your new project

You can now create your project, in this example "TestLibrary?".

Update include and library Paths

You have to add the bios/inc directory in the Compiler Directories list

The last point is to add the "bios.a" in the libraries list of the linker.

Build your project

Everything is ready, you can create and build wonderful application with the BIOS :)
