Intel System Studio 2019 Get Started Guide

Step 4: Create a new connection

CAUTION

When you connect to your target using the Eclipse Target Communication Framework (TCF), Intel System Studio copies a TCF agent to your target, which is listening for connections from any computer on your local network. Even though the IDE asks for authentication credentials, the agent does NOT have any authentication. Therefore, any user can connect to it and can use the agent to run arbitrary code on your target device.

  1. Make sure your target device is physically connected to your host system and functioning properly.

    Note

    If your target is QEMU, start the QEMU simulator in your project directory by entering the command $ runqemu qemux86-64 nographic. When prompted, run ipconfig to get the IP address.
  2. On the main toolbar, click the arrow next to the New Connection box.
  3. Select Connection for container based C/C++ applications or Java applications. Click Next.
  4. Type a name in the Connection Name field.
  5. Enter the board name or IP address in the Address field. Click Finish.
  6. When prompted, provide the appropriate credentials to access your device and click OK.
