Build an example application

The following steps guide you through opening the hello_world example application. These steps may change slightly for other example applications, as some of these applications may have additional layers of folders in their paths.

  1. If not already done, open the desired demo application workspace. Most example application workspace files can be located using the following path:

    <install_dir>/boards/<board_name>/<example_type>/<application_name>/iar
    

    Using the i.MX 8M Mini EVK board as an example, the hello_world workspace is located in:

    <install_dir>/boards/evkmimx8mm/demo_apps/hello_world/iar/hello_world.eww
    
  2. Select the desired build target from the drop-down. For this example, select hello_world – flash_debug.
