Getting Started
Example
If you have not created
the Framework libraries already, please do so.
Rhapsody in C
Please verify the implementation of your compiler bridge
and target bridge,
in particular the function WSTTarget_Init().
The function WSTTarget_incrementRxfTicks() must be called peridically,
so either during board initialization within startup code, or within
WSTTarget_Init() you must use a Interrupt Service Routine like WSTTarget_timerInterrupt().
Open the Rhapsody project Blinky at the directory <your
Rhapsody>\Share\WST_RXF_V5\<your product>\Samples\Model\Blinky:

TargetComponent
is using the stereotype RXFComponent which is defined in the profile Kimberger. Each RXF by Willert Software Tools comes with its own profile with the stereotype RXFComponent. RXFComponent
sets the proper environment, some properies for the RXF and defines
some Tags. These Tags are used by the Deployer so it will use relative
paths inside your EDE project. The other profile referenced, WSTProfile, is used to set Rhapsody GUI details which makes it easier for you to view and maintain your models.
ExamplePkg
has two objects:
- LED
which has an Init(),
on()
and off()
operation
- Controller
which has a simple statechart which toggles the states on and off in
LED every 300 msec.
Select the proper environment via the Features and
do this for both
Configurations Debug and Release:
The Deployer which will deploy
Rhapsody generated source
files and some
generated configuration files, needs information from your model on
relative paths inside an EDE project:

It uses
Tags from the stereotype RXFComponent
which you must specify for your Component:
- the Tag relativeGeneratedFilePath
defines the path inside the GettingStarted EDE Project Space to deploy Rhapsody
model generated files to
- the Tag relativeRxfPath
defines the path inside the EDE Project Space to deploy
framework files to
- the Tag toolchainProjectFile
defines the name of the BlinkyD EDE project file to update
(the
deployed files must be added to the project). Set it to BlinkyD.pjt
- the Tag rootDescription
will be is displayed in the WSTDeployer GUI. It is a short
text to inform developers working on the model, to what kind of
build environment the model should be deployed. It can also include a
non machine dependent hint, where the BlinkyD EDE project's
root
directory can be
found.
- the Tag rootTitle
is also displayed in the WSTDeployer GUI. It is a short title
for the EDE project's machine specific
root path.
| Note |
Each Rhapsody model must have a reference to the Kimberger profile and
use the stereotype RXFComponent.
This will allow you to use the Tags.
You can set them via the Features dialog for your component.
Kimberger.sbs is installed in
<Rhapsody>\Share\WST_RXF_V5\<product>\Config\Profiles\Kimberger_Profile_rpy |
Use Code
| Generate
Debug to generate C code from this model, and accept the
question to have the directory created for the Debug Configuration:

Use Code | Build
TargetComponent.dat to generate
- the file RhapsodyRun.bat to launch the deployer
later on.
- the file RxfDimensions.h
which is an include file which contains constants which are derived
from properties set in the Rhapsody model like RIC_MAX_EVENTS, RIC_MAX_TIMEOUTS,
RIC_SMALL_BUFFER_SIZE
etc.
These all deal with dimensions for the RXF, and because these are
inserted in an include file you do not need to set these constants in
your EDE later.
- the file RxfConstants.h
which sets constants with respect to the version of the RXF and
Rhapsody and sets _DEBUG,
WST_HIGHWATERMARKS
and NO_MALLOC
used in a Debug configuration or Buildset.
- the
file WSTMemoryTypes.h which is used for Memory Section Management
so you can locate code and data exact where you like it.

Now you can deploy the generated files. The model does not
contain the
location of your GettingStarted ? project on your PC; the
Deployer will maintain
that information instead. This enables one to have the same project
used by different persons at different locations; the installation of
the Tasking toolchain on various PCs may differ.
Deployer
The very first time that the Deployer must deploy a project, it will
automatically launch in configuration mode and ask for path(s). Select
Code | Run
TargetComponent.dat to start the Deployer:

The Deployer will prompt for the path to your GettingStarted workspace
or project, so you must specify
Rhapsody\Share\WST_RXF_V5\<your product>\Samples\Code\GettingStarted:

The Deployer knows from your model that it must search for
a ?
project file in that directory, which it will update with the names of
the files it deploys:

After you saved the path to GettingStarted, the files are deployed to
the ? project:

EDE
You must close the project in the EDE
and reopen it before you can see the files added to your project. We
are working on this Known Issue #778.
Now open the GettingStarted Project Space in the EDE, which is installed in the directory
<your Rhapsody>\Share\WST_RXF_V5\<your
product>\Samples\Model\Code\GettingStated:

Now we can build the application and test it.
| Note |
You must add an entry in the Rhapsody Tools menu, which launces the Deployer in Configuration Mode.
This
allows you to change the path used by the Deployer for your EDEn
project in case you want to use a different EDE project for your
Rhapsody project, or in case you moved the EDE project. |
Buildsets
In the Rhapsody model you can choose between a Debug and Release
buildset. Please note that the Tasking EDE uses a different project
file per project in the EDE: if you want to use the Release buildset,
you must also change the name of the toolchainProjectFile Tag to BlinkyR.pjt:
