The 'mysl' example shows how to use the Server/Loader library. The
example program is mysl.cpp, and uses the Server/Loader library to
reset, load and server a DSP system. 

This example program as-is works with a HEPC9 with one HERON4 module
inserted in slot 1. The board ID must be 0 (board ID is the red switch
in the upper left corner of the HEPC9).
If your configuration is different, please edit the "network" file.

To run the example, simply type

	my32 v

To run the example with the standard Server/Loader, type

	w32 v

There is also a my32_pc8 script. As the name tries to indicate, this
script runs with a HEPC8. The script uses the network.pc8 network file
which assumes a HEPC8 with a HERON4 in slot 0, and board switch 0.
To run:
	my32_pc8 v

The 'v' indicates verbose and is optional.

To compile the C6x example, you need access Code Composer Studio.
At the time of writing this, Code Composer Studio is only available
for Windows. Using Code Composer Studio, create a new project with
the Create New HERON_API Project plugin. If you name the new
project 'stdio.pjt', then 'stdio.c' will be included automatically.

This example is to show how to use the Server/Loader library. Using
this library, you can write your own C/C++ program that can use all
of the facilities of the Server/Loader. The "mysl.cpp" file will
show how you can use the Server/Loader library to boot and serve
a C6x DSP system. To compile & link the "mysl.cpp" file, type

	make

This will use the "Makefile" present in this directory. If you intend
to write your own Server, the examples in the sl_api directory may be
of more interest than this example.

The Server/Loader uses a network description file (called "network")
to decide what nodes need to be loaded via what links. This is further
described in the manual ("svloader.pdf" and "networkspec.pdf" in the
/web/pdfs/manuals directory on the Hunt Engineering CD).
