Setting up the correct way of compiling and using EEROS can be quite cumbersome. We strongly recommend to use our build scripts and if you cross develop then use our prebuilt images together with the associated SDKs (software development kit). These images already contain the necessary libraries. All you have to do is build your own application and deploy it. What to you want to do with EEROS?

• Run examples on the host, use with the simulator → see Use on the Host
• Run on the host with comedi → see Use with Comedi
• Use it on the Beaglebone Blue board → see Use on a Beaglebone Blue Board
• Use it on the cb20 board with flink or CAN → see Use on a cb20 Board
• Use it with EtherCAT on x86 platform → see https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/ethercat/start
• Use it with EtherCAT on x86 platform → see https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/ethercat/start

Do this only, if you are not using the scripts mentioned above and know what you do. Clone the eeros source repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-framework.git

Checkout a stable version of EEROS:

$ cd eeros-framework
$ git checkout v1.2.0

In addition to the eeros library you need to install libraries for hardware access together with the appropriate eeros wrapper libraries, see Installing Hardware Libraries. Continue with Compile Manually.
