This command is required, unless you use the create_driver or create_sw_package commands, as
appropriate.
create_sw_package
Usage
create_sw_package <name>
Options
• <name>: Name of the software package.
Description
This command creates a new software package instance available for the Nios II SBT. This command
must precede all others that describe the software package in its Tcl script. You can only have one
create_sw_package command in each Tcl script. If the create_sw_package command appears in the
Tcl script, the create_driver or create_os commands cannot appear.
The name argument is usually distinct from all other device drivers and software packages that the SBT
might locate. You can specify a name identical to another software package if the software package you are
describing has a unique version number assignment.
If your software package differs for different operating systems, you need to provide a unique name for
each BSP type.
This command is required, unless you use the create_driver or create_os commands, as appropriate.
