Running sbengine on Photon

Written by Jamie Villeneuve | Sep 16, 2010 2:58:57 PM

Hello Everyone,

We have had a couple of inquires on how to run sbengine with Photon so I thought I'd post a quick howto here.

The first step is to download the Opt Crank Archive for QNX 6.4.0 from here. Next we unpack the archive in / so we have the following dir structure /opt/crank.3.3/. Now we setup our env variables ...

export GRE_PLUGINS=/nto-x86-sdl-obj/plugins

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/nto-x86-sdl-obj/lib/:/opt/crank.3.3/x86/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Next we simply run sbengine with a gapp file ...

/nto-x86-sdl-obj/bin/sbengine –vvvv /speedometer-example/speedometer.gapp

There you have it. Your Storyboard app will now be running on Photon.

If you require additional steps on getting Storyboard running on a QNX target, please use the following link.

Have a great day!
