XAPP1178 (v2.0) January 23, 2015 www.xilinx.com 16
Open the Exported Hardware Workspace in SDK
1. After the bitstream generation is complete, open the already exported hardware workspace
in SDK.
2. Open the xsdk GUI.
3. Give the workspace path as XAPP1178/DP_Tx_Xapp/sst/sw and click OK.
It will show the sst application folder, sst_bsp board support package that is created using
the software driver repository for DisplayPort and common video libraries.
4. Reload the driver repository from the common directory of the xapp package that is present
in the local directory (XAPP1178) as explained in the next steps.
5. In XSDK, open Xilinx Tools>Repositories. Select the existing repository path and remove it.
Click New. Select the path XAPP1178/DP_Tx_Xapp/common/driver_repo. Click OK.
Rescan the repositories. Click Apply. Click OK.
6. Now from the xsdk project Explorer, select sst_bsp, right click, and then click Re-generate
BSP sources. This will regenerate the drivers from the selected driver repository from the
copied package location.
7. Select Project and then check the "Build automatically" option. This re-builds the project
and re-generates the sst.elf file under XAPP1178/DP_Tx_Xapp/sst/sw/sst/Debug.
8. For any change in the source code under XAPP1178/DP_Tx_Xapp/sst/sw/src, rebuild
the SDK project to get the updated elf file. Click Yes, when you get a pop up window for
Re-generate BSP sources.
The preceding steps are applicable for the mst mode of operation as well under the
XAPP1178/DP_Tx_Xapp/mst/sw directory.
