For some systems developed using IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® Developer for C,
the OXF provided with the product is not appropriate because the systems
require a solution with a smaller footprint. To provide a solution
for these environments, a limited framework called IDF (Interrupt-Driven
Framework) is also provided with IBM Rational Rhapsody
About this task
Rational Rhapsody provides
a base IDF model that can be adapted for different target systems.
Also included is a sample adaptation for Microsoft NT illustrating
the use of the IDF.
Procedure
To use this sample model to learn about
the IDF:
- Start the development version of Rational Rhapsody Developer for C and
choose and browse to locate the IDF model Share\LangC\idf\model\idf.rpy.
- With that project open, click the GMR button
to generate
and make the generic configuration automatically displayed above the
window, as shown here.
This generates all core files and idfFiles.list with
dependencies and rules in the Share\LangC\idf directory.
- Using the same method, open another IDF
model, Share\LangC\idf\Adapters\Microsoft\MicrosoftNT.
- Generate and make this model with the GMR
button. This builds the library msidf.lib in the
directory Share\LangC\lib.
