Configure and build

After creating an application, make a few changes before attempting to build it:

1. Edit the

   Makefile

   located in the project folder as follows:

   APPNAME=Hello_World 
   # Use the same App_Name used to create the project
   
   TOOLCHAIN=IAR

2. Open a modus-shell terminal from the ModusToolbox™ install directory, navigate to the IAR project directory, and run this command:

   make build -j8

3. Copy the post-build command from the log. For example:

   ../mtb_shared/core-make/release-v3.6.1/make/scripts/python.bash C:/examples/psoc64-iar/Hello_World/bsps/TARGET_APP_CY8CPROTO-064S1-SB/psoc64_postbuild.py --core CM4 --secure-boot-stage single --policy policy_single_CM0_CM4 --target cyb06xx7 --toolchain-path C:/Users/follettcj/Infineon/Tools/mtb-gcc-arm-eabi/11.3.1/gcc --toolchain IAR --build-dir C:/examples/psoc64-iar/Hello_World/build/APP_CY8CPROTO-064S1-SB/Debug --app-name Hello_World --cm0-app-path ../mtb_shared/cat1cm0p/release-v1.8.0/COMPONENT_CAT1A/COMPONENT_CM0P_SECURE --cm0-app-name psoc6_01_cm0p_secure

4. Paste the command into an appropriate editor, and make the following edits:

   • Update the path to python

   • Add path to the policy file, for example:

     --policy-path ./policy

   • Change

     --build-dir

     to

     Debug/Exe

   • Change

     --app-name

     to your project in IAR name, if needed

   Example of command after edit:

   [path to python.exe] C:/examples/psoc64-iar/Hello_World/bsps/TARGET_APP_CY8CPROTO-064S1-SB/psoc64_postbuild.py --core CM4 --secure-boot-stage single --policy-path ./policy --policy policy_single_CM0_CM4 --target cyb06xx7 --toolchain-path C:/Users/follettcj/Infineon/Tools/mtb-gcc-arm-eabi/11.3.1/gcc --toolchain IAR --build-dir Debug/Exe --app-name Hello_World --cm0-app-path ../mtb_shared/cat1cm0p/release-v1.8.0/COMPONENT_CAT1A/COMPONENT_CM0P_SECURE --cm0-app-name psoc6_01_cm0p_secure

5. Copy the edited command.

6. In IAR embedded Workbench, open the Options dialog, go to

   Build Actions

   , and click

   New

   :

   
   
   
   
   

7. On the New Build Action dialog, paste the edited command in the

   Command line

   field, select "Run after linking" in the

   Build order

   field, and click

   OK

   :

   
   
   
   
   

8. Click

   OK

   to close the dialog.

   
   
   
   
   

9. Switch to

   Linker > Output

   and change the file extension from ".out" to ".elf" in

   Output filename

   field:

   
   
   
   
   

10. Click

    OK

    to close the dialog.

11. On the IAR main menu, select

    Project > Make

    to build the application.
