The Platform Builder integrated development environment (IDE) is a thin layer over the command-line build system. This means that the Build OS menu options in the IDE are easily mappable to commands entered in a command-line prompt build window.

If you want to use a command-line prompt build window to work with an OS design, you can use these command-line equivalents to configure and run builds. As in the IDE, there are different combinations of commands and parameters that you can set for the desired outcome, such as building a run-time image.

For more information about the options available in the IDE, see Build OS Menu Options.

The following table shows the command-line equivalents for choosing Sysgen from the Build OS menu, which varies based on additional menu options that you select.
