Error in build-sdk.tcl?

[jkwho]

I follwed this tutorial under vivado2018.2, and build the vivado hardware successfully, but after that, when I tried to build the sdk by running build-sdk.tcl in VIVADO tcl console, I got an error, said that "setws" is an unvalid command (Line 229 in build-sdk.tcl). So, is there something wrong in this tcl, or I did some mistake in building the SDK?

The build-sdk.tcl should be run by Xilinx SDK, not Vivado. See the build-sdk.bat file for the command to run.

You mean the XSCT Console in SDK? I tried as follwings:

1. export hardware include bitstream
2. open SDK and select $prj_name.sdk as workspace
3. open XSCT Console and cd to SDK directory, then source build-sdk.tcl

Then the console output : Building the local SDK repo from original sources Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v2_0 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v2_09 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_9 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_99 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_6 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_69 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip202_v1_1 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip202_v1_19 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip202_v1_0 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip202_v1_09 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_7 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_79 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_8 to ../EmbeddedSw/ThirdParty/sw_services/lwip141_v1_89 Copying files from /opt/Xilinx/SDK/2018.2/data/embeddedsw/lib/sw_apps/zynqmp_fsbl to ../EmbeddedSw/lib/sw_apps/zynqmp_fsbl Creating the SDK workspace There were 1 exported project(s) found in the ../Vivado directory. Creating SDK workspace. xsct% workspace is already set. use -switch option to switch to new workspace

Something still wrong with setws

Sorry, the instructions are not clear for Linux users, I will fix this up. You need to run XSCT in the "non-interactive mode", ie. from the Linux command line. Don't run the SDK until the script has completed. From a Linux command prompt:

cd <path-to-repo>/SDK
/<path-to-sdk>/2018.2/bin/xsct build-sdk.tcl

That will launch XSCT and build your SDK workspace into the <path-to-repo>/SDK directory. You need to select this directory as your workspace when running SDK (do not select $prj_name.sdk).

thanks for solution, it's done.
