MICROEJ SDK¶
MICROEJ SDK offers a comprehensive toolset to build the embedded software of a device. The SDK covers two levels in device software development:
- Device Firmware development
- Application development
The firmware will generally be produced by the device OEM, it includes all device drivers and a specific set of MicroEJ functionalities useful for application developers targeting this device.
Using the SDK, a firmware developer will produce two versions of the MicroEJ binary, each one able to run applications:
- An Executable binary to be flashed on OEM devices;
- A Virtual Device which will be used as a device simulator by application developers.
Using the SDK, an application developer will be able to:
- Import Virtual Devices matching his target hardware in order to develop and test applications on the Simulator;
- Deploy the application locally on a hardware device equipped with the Firmware;
- Package and publish the application on a MicroEJ Forge Instance, enabling remote end users to install it on their devices. For more information about MicroEJ Forge, please consult https://www.microej.com/product/forge.
The following diagram outlines the SDK content. Please refer to the SDK 5 User Guide chapter for more details on the SDK and its usage.
