Step-by-step

Create your first project

Create a New Project by File → New Project... then select Solution Project and add a name to your project and your solution name too.

New Project

Add a new model to the solution by right clicking on the solution name and choose New → Model.

New Model

Add a name to your model:

Model Name

After that on the Used Languages tab add the com.mbeddr.core devkit.

Add DevKit

How to use decision table

Draft about external modules

Manual Library Import

Right click on a module name you are working with, then click New → com.mbeddr.core.modules → external. In this newly created External Module add the referenced artifact to resources. In case of Mosquitto, insert header: <mosquitto.h>. Finally, add the created external module to imports.

Mosquitto specific settings:

Add the -lmosquitto option to your compiler options under the BuildConfiguration of the solution. Other linked libraries should be added here as well in a similar manner.

mbeddr does not generate the compiler command in the right order, so you need to compile your project by hand in a terminal.
