The IDE lets you:
- Browse and import source packages that are available to download from Foundry27, whereby creating fully functional IDE project(s).
- Select a package and perform a SVN checkout or export, whereby you can obtain history, perform an update, and commit changes back to SVN.
- Create additional projects and files that are required for a package (files that aren't part of the SVN source tree, i.e. a System Builder project for the BSP).
Using the IDE, in the SVN Repositories view, you can view and checkout directly from the source tree (see Checking out BSP packages directly from the SVN Repositories view).
For information about setting options to export a BSP, see Setting export options for a BSP.
