5.1.1.2 Local CAN Drivers for CAN Modules that Act as Hosts Themselfs
Compared to the modules described in the previous chapter these modules come with a complete
VxWorks BSP containing a local CAN driver. Using these modules as target is not supported at the
moment.

5.1.2 Integration of the Driver in a Project
The integration and installation of the VxWorks 6.x CAN drivers and libraries is different to VxWorks
5.x. For VxWorks 6.x the driver installation and configuration is integrated into the WindRiver
Workbench. For earlier versions of VxWorks the driver and libraries are deployed as binaries which
have to be linked to your application or BSP together with a configuration file which has to be adapted
to your hardware configuration.
5.1.2.1 Content of the driver package for VxWorks 6.x
The driver software for VxWorks 6.x comes as a package for all supported host CPU architectures and
CAN hardware with the following directory layout structure:
Directory Description
doc\
Documentation of driver installation and NTCAN-API
src\
Example code (
cantest.c
) also included in binary format which can be
optionally added to your project.
target\
This directory contains all necessary files to integrate and configure the driver.
For
driver installation and integration with the WindRiver Workbench the
complete folder has to be copied into the target directory of your VxWorks 6.x
installation keeping the directory hierarchy.
The CAN driver support will be
available with the next start of the Workbench.
