Hi,

I'm using the Linux version 3.3.2 of the SDK, and have successfully run the CAPIV2 examples simply by executing the make command. However, I couldn't see where hexagon-sim is called from. How does running the make command also run the project? Could someone point out where the hexagon-sim is called from?

Regards,

Naveen

I am using Window version. It should be similar with Linux.

In my case , it is located in:

..../Hexagon_SDK/3.3.2/tools/HEXAGON_Tools/8.1.05/Tools/bin

Hi David,

Actually I was confused about how executing the make command, also runs the executable. I am aware of the location of hexagon-sim, but not sure how the make command calls hexagon-sim. I'm not able to see the call to hexagon-sim anywhere..

Thanks,

Naveen

I am using Hexagon IDE in Window.

You should be able to see that when you use unit test project, such as test_capi_v2... under eclipse. In that project, you should see the call hexagon-sim in Run Configurations->HexagonC/C++ Application->test_capiv2_....->Simulator.

Hope linux is similar.

Good luck..

Hi Naveen, 

Makefile includes min files and finally defines_hexagon_8_1.min file present at Hexagon_SDK\3.3.2\build\make.d.ext\hexagon\ will be included if you use 8.1.05 toolset. This file has all the compilation flags and  locations of tool binaries such as hexagon-sim, hexagon-ar. 

 

AR=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-ar#

CC=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-clang#
CXX=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-clang++#
LD=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-clang#
FEZ=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-size#
STRIP=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-strip#
SIM=$(HEXAGON_BIN)$(HEXAGON_NAME)-sim#
