We strongly recommend to use our scripts. How to setup these scripts depends on your platform. What to you want to do with EEROS? 
-<code> +  * Run examples, use with the simulator → see [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment:use_on_host|]] 
-$ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git +  * Run on the host together with ROS → see [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment:use_with_ros|]] 
-</code> +  * Run on the host with comedi → see [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment:use_with_comedi|]] 
-  - Copy all files from the cloned directory into your working directory. This is the place where you want to have all necessary repositories together with your appplication. +  * Use it on the Beaglebone Blue board → see [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment:use_on_bbb|]] 
-  - Edit the ''config.sh.in'' file. Choose an appropriate toolchain file. The toolchain file basically determines which compiler you are going to use. If you work on the host and want to use the standard compiler you can omit this toolchain file. See [[arm_toolchain]] for an example of a toolchain file.  +  * Use it on the cb20 board with flink → see [[getting_started:install_and_setup_development_environment:use_with_cb20]] 
-  - Choose a meaningful name for the build and install directory.  +  * Use it with EtherCAT on x86 platform → see [[https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/ethercat/start]]
-  - Comment or uncomment the necessary hardware libraries. The script will fetch those left uncommented. +
-  - Change the name of your application directory so that it fits your application. Per default a simple motor control will be downloaded. If you don't want to download this and have no other application to download yet, please comment these two lines out.+
  
-Now you can run the ''clone'' script  
-<code> 
-$ ./clone.sh 
-</code>

-Clone the eeros source repository:+Do this only, if you are not using the scripts mentioned above and know what you do. Clone the eeros source repository:
 <code> <code>
 $ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-framework.git $ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-framework.git
Line 38: Line 37:
 <code> <code>
 $ cd eeros-framework $ cd eeros-framework
-$ git checkout v0.5+$ git checkout v1.1.0
 </code> </code>
  
 In addition to the eeros library you need to install libraries for hardware access together with the appropriate eeros wrapper libraries, see [[install_wrapper]]. In addition to the eeros library you need to install libraries for hardware access together with the appropriate eeros wrapper libraries, see [[install_wrapper]].
