About this task
Rational® Rhapsody® directly
supports the following operations from the IDE submenu of the Code >
Target menu.
- opens a connection to
the IDE server. In the case of Tornado, this is the Tornado target
server. This should be applied once during a session. The connection
is disconnected either explicitly or when the project is closed. To
connect, you must specify a target server name, typically <targetName>@<hostName>.
Once specified, the name is stored for future sessions.
- downloads an image to
the targets through the IDE. Download is available only if an image
exists.
- Runs
the executable on the
target starting from a designated entry point (VxMain in Tornado),
as specified by the <lang>_CG::<Environment>::EntryPoint property.
You can also run the executable from the Code menu or toolbar.
- lears the target from
all tasks and data allocated by the application. This is an important
feature because RTOSes generally do not have a process concept that
cleans up after termination of the application. Unload is always available
and causes execution to stop if the application is running.
- disconnects from the
IDE server.
