Chapter 2: Hardware/Software Co-Design
Creating a Hello World Application in SDK
When SDK is launched with a workspace created from System Generator, it is possible to
create a C application project that has example code that shows how memories in System
Generator can be read from and written to.
In the C/C++ Project navigation pane, right click on a Software Platform and select
New > Managed Make C Application Project.
In the list of Sample Applications, select the sg_plbiface example and click Finish. This
creates a software project with a main() routine that prints "Hello World". The file also
contains example functions that show how to access the memories in the System Generator
design.
