1.5. Software Development Flow

The process for creating a NicheStack TCP/IP Stack and MicroC-OS/II software image for the Nios II processor consists of the following general steps:

  1. Creating a new Nios II SBT for Eclipse C/C++ application project with the simple socket server project template
  2. Configuring a board support package (BSP) project, including MicroC/OS-II and the NicheStack TCP/IP Stack software component
  3. Building the application project
  4. Running and debugging the application project
