To start developing software for the BORA/BORAX platform, users need a proper toolchain, which can be pre-built or built-from-scratch. Building a toolchain from scratch is not a trivial task (, even though using a recent build system is easier than in the past), so . So the recommended approach consists in of using a pre-built toolchain.

=====Instructions for BELK 4.0.0 or newer and BXELK 2.0.0 or newer=====The [[Managed_Virtual_Machine_(MVM)|Managed Virtual Machine (MVM)]] delivered along with these versions of BELK/BXELK provides a script which can be used to set up the build environment easily. Use the following command to do that:<pre>source env.sh</pre> =====Instructions for BELK <= 3.0.2 and BXELK <= 1.0.1===== The toolchain used as a reference for these versions of BELK /BXELK is the toolchain provided with the Xilinx SDK (usually installed into <code>/opt/Xilinx/SDK/<Vivado_version>/gnu/arm/lin/bin</code>).Once the toolchain is installed, it is convenient to create a a bash script (<code>env.sh</code>) containing the following linesin order to set up the build environment quickly:

Use Once the following command to set up the environment shell variables required by the building proceduresuch a script is created (for example <code>env.sh</code>), it can be invoked like this:<pre>source env.sh</pre>
