The Onyx Boox SDK is used for developing applications on the Boox ebook readers produced by Onyx International.
The toolchain used for cross-compiling can be obtained at
http://dev.onyxcommunity.com/sdk/freescale-toolchain.tar.gz. Run the
following shell commands to install it:
cd /tmp
wget http://dev.onyxcommunity.com/sdk/freescale-toolchain.tar.gz
sudo mkdir -p /opt
cd /opt && sudo tar -xzf /tmp/freescale-toolchain.tar.gz
Grab the source: git clone git@github.com:onyx-intl/booxsdk.git git submodule update --init
Then download some prebuilt third-party libraries: cd /tmp wget http://c1044492.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/boox_thirdparty.tar.gz cd /opt && sudo tar -xzf /tmp/boox_thirdparty.tar.gz
If you want to build the third-party libraries from source, you can
get the source code at http://opensource.onyx-international.com/
To build the SDK, install CMake and Rake, then run rake build:arm:default
CCache and DistCC will be used if they are available. If you do not
want to use DistCC, append DISABLE_DISTCC=1 to the build command.
The SDK is frequently updated and sometimes may break compatibility with earlier versions. If you want your application to run no matter which version of the libraries are installed on the device, you can link your application against the static libraries. You can build the static libraries by running rake build:arm:static
If you are running a 64-bit environment, please make sure you have
32-bit runtime libraries installed. (For example, on Arch Linux, it is multilib/lib32-gcc-libs.)
