Building Embedded Systems

The Building Embedded Systems guide is intended for developers who are building embedded systems that will run under the QNX Neutrino RTOS.

QNX® Neutrino® OS Audio Developer's Guide

The Audio Developer's Guide is intended for developers who wish to write audio applications using the QNX Sound Architecture (QSA) drivers and library.

QDB Developer's Guide

The QNX Database (QDB) Developer's Guide accompanies the QDB database server and is intended for application developers.

Adaptive Partitioning User's Guide

The Adaptive Partitioning User's Guide will help you configure adaptive partitioning to divide system resources between competing processes.

OpenWF Display Configuration Developer's Guide: Modifying the Wfdcfg library

If you are integrating a new display, you must configure and provide the parameters of your display based on its specifications via the OpenWF Display Configuration API (Wfdcfg Library).

Multicore Processing User's Guide

The Multicore Processing User's Guide describes how you can use symmetric multiprocessing to get the most performance possible out of a multiprocessor system. It also describes how to use bound multiprocessing to restrict which processors a thread can run on.

Instant Device Activation User's Guide

The Instant Device Activation User's Guide will help you set up a “minidriver” to start devices quickly when the system boots. This guide is intended for software developers who want to develop instant device activation code.

i.MX 6 Series Firmware Guide

This document’s purpose is to help software engineers create board bring up and test code for their own custom boards based on the i.MX 6 series of application processors. It provides example driver code that demonstrates the proper initialization, boot up and basic I/O operation of i.MX 6 peripherals and controllers. This code can be implemented into test suites or boot code to help ensure proper board functionality. Engineers are expected to have a working understanding of the ARM processor programming model, the C programming language, tools such as compilers and assemblers, and program build tools such as MAKE. Familiarity with the use of commonly available hardware test and debug tools such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers is assumed. An understanding of the architecture of the i.MX 6 series of application processors is also assumed. This guide is released along with the i.MX 6 series Platform SDK release package, which consists of a working set of sample drivers and test code for customer reference and use. The README.pdf document in the package describes how to build and run the drivers and the test code.

QNX® Momentics® Tool Suite Integrated Development Environment User's Guide

ou can use the QNX Momentics IDE to build your QNX Neutrino-based systems. Once you understand the basic concepts, you can set up your projects, write code, debug, test, and fine-tune your project.

High Availability Framework Developer's Guide

The High Availability Framework Developer's Guide describes how to build robust high-availability software running on the QNX Neutrino RTOS.
