- .NET Framework or Mono

# Flashing an Application

The StarterWare package includes pre-built binaries for all libraries and example applications. To flash one of the applications to your EVM and boot it, use the following procedure.

1. Locate the application executable file (*.out). This file is located in the `binary` folder according to its target CPU, toolchain, device, platform, and build profile. For example, an executable for the "demo" application can be found at the following location:
   - `binary/c674x/cgt/c6748/evmC6748/demo/Release/demo.out`
2. Convert the application executable into a binary format suitable for boot. You can use the out2rprc utility located in the `tools` folder:

   -     $> out2rprc.exe [application].out [application].bin

3. Create an AIS file from the StarterWare bootloader utility
   - The AISgen tool is also located in the `tools` folder
   - Important: in the AISgen GUI, be sure to select "SPI0 Flash" boot mode
4. Use the SFH utility (also located in the `tools` folder) to flash your bootloader AIS and application binary file to the EVM. The command line usage is as follows:

   -     $> sfh_OMAP-L138.exe -flash -targetType C6748 [bootloader].ais [application].bin

5. Set the EVM boot switches to SPI flash boot mode
6. Power cycle the board
