Command Line Tools

Top  Previous  Next

The RTCU M2M Studio is a fully integrated development environment (IDE), allowing all tasks to be performed conveniently without the need for external tools. However, to support specialized or advanced workflows, key tools can also be invoked directly from the command line, enabling integration with Makefiles and other automation systems
 

 

The following tools are included in the RTCU M2M Studio installation directory:

 

VPC.EXE

Compiler

VCFG.EXE

Configurator

VCFGIO.EXE

I/O Extension Configurator

RPCTOOL.EXE

Manipulate RTCU Project Containers

 

All tools will write out usage information when invoked without any parameters.

 

Example batch files for building projects:

Using the I/O Extension, Master mode example.

 

Building an X32 project:

REM Compile VPL file, creates main.vpx
vpc -x main.vpl
REM Configure project to create main.vsx 
vcfg -x -a=main,100 main.cfg
REM Add IO extension data
vcfgio main.vsx main.rmsproject
REM done

 

Building an NX32 project:

REM Compile VPL file, creates main.vpx
vpc -nx main.vpl
REM Configure project to create main.vsx 
vcfg -nx -a=main,100 main.cfg
REM Add IO extension data
vcfgio main.vsx main.rmsproject
REM Create a new RPC file with main.vsx as the default application.
rpctool -n -a main.vsx DEFAULT.VSX main.rpc
REM done

 

Building an NX32L project:

REM Compile VPL file, creates main.vpx
vpc -nxl main.vpl
REM Configure project to create main.vsx 
vcfg -nxl -a=main,100 main.cfg
REM Add IO extension data
vcfgio main.vsx main.rmsproject
REM Create a new RPC file with main.vsx as the default application and 
REM _config_ as the configuration file for flex input.
rpctool -nxl -n -a _config_ _CONFIG_ -a main.vsx DEFAULT.VSX main.rpc
REM done
