Build an example application

To build an example application, follow these steps.

1. Open a GCC Arm Embedded tool chain command window. To launch the window, from the Windows operating system Start menu, go to Programs >GNU Tools Arm Embedded <version> and select GCC Command Prompt.

   

2. Change the directory to the example application project directory which has a path similar to the following:

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

   For this example, the exact path is:

   <install_dir>/boards/frdmke16z/demo_apps/hello_world/armgcc
   

   Note: To change directories, use the cd command.

3. Type build_debug.bat on the command line or double click on build_debug.bat file in Windows Explorer to build it. The output is as shown in Figure 2.
