newbie question: qnx image for mx31 with qconn  
hi,

i just started with qnx.
i have a windows host and a freescale mx31 target board.
with the bsp i managed to create an image that runs on the target.
but there is no "qconn".
in all guides i found they tell i have to start "qconn" on the target for communication with the momentix ide.

that's my problem: if i understand all right, i can't make own applications (e.g. "hello world") until i have qconn 
running on the target.

how can i make an image with "qconn"?

hope somebody could help!
thanks and greetings
hannes

Hi Hannes,
If you are creating your image through the IDE System Builder then open up
your .bld file by double clicking.  You will see a tab with your image
details.  Right click on binaries and go to add binary.  Then it's a simple
matter of selecting qconn.  
If you are using the command line to create an image then you will need to
edit your .build file.  Open up this file and scroll down to the bottom of
the file.  You will see sections of binaries all commented out.  Look for
the section labeled for networking and uncomment qconn.  This will tell
mkifs to include the binary in your image. You can find more details
concerning build files in the Momentics Documentation under the "Building
Embedded Systems".

Regards,
Wade

I believe pdebug will also be required (make sure you include it).

hi,
it works fine!
pdebug is needed, too.
thanks a lot for help!
