Building a software platform involves running the library generator tool, Libgen, which generates the operating system and libraries constituting the platform.
To build a software platform project, right-click the project and select Build Project or Rebuild Project. You can also select Project > Build Project.
You can also set an option to have SDK automatically initiate a build when you create or change your software platform project. To set this option, select Project > Build Automatically. With this option, SDK uses Libgen to automatically build the project. At the end of the build process, the necessary header and library files are generated within the software platform directory.
