Installation of VPI must be performed using the SDK Manager automated installer, stepping through the installation and setup of the platform on the host and target system.
Consult the SDK Manager User Guide for detailed instructions to install VPI.
The SDK Manager interface must be used to flash the system with the desired configuration.
The installer copies VPI files to /opt/nvidia/vpi-0.2, also creating a symlink /opt/nvidia/vpi pointing to it. This allows some old build systems hard-code VPI's location so that it always use the most recently installed version.
| include | C headers |
| lib | shared libraries for host platform |
| samples/* | complete sample applications |
| targets/* | shared libraries for host and target platforms, needed for cross-compilation |
After a successful installation, start learning some basic concepts, then go write your first application with VPI.
