Deploying Kanzi applications¶
While you develop Kanzi applications using Kanzi Studio and Visual Studio on Windows, you can compile your Kanzi applications for and execute on any mobile or embedded platform that supports OpenGL ES 2.0.
When developing your application on Windows, you can easily test your application with a number of (emulated) OpenGL libraries. In practice, OpenGL ES2.0 debug is a good build configuration option when developing your application, but it is good practice to ensure its stability at least with GL21, release and debug profiles before building for release.
Supported platforms¶
To deploy your Kanzi application to a target platform, you have to build it for the target platform. The output of building activity is an executable or an installer package that you can run or install on a target device. Kanzi supports building using Visual Studio 2017 on Windows and CMake for non-Windows platforms.
When you create your Kanzi application with a C++ application in Kanzi Studio, Kanzi creates a set of platform configurations. Kanzi creates platform configurations in <ProjectName>/Application/configs/platforms.
Kanzi installation comes with support for these platforms:
Android (ARM, Aarch64, x86, x86_64). See Deploying Kanzi applications to Android.
Linux X11 GLX. See Deploying Kanzi applications to Linux.
64-bit Windows (Visual Studio 2017). See Deploying Kanzi applications to Windows.
Kanzi supports these platforms, but you must request them separately:
QNX. See Deploying Kanzi applications to QNX.
Linux (Vivante fbdev, WSEGL, Wayland, DRM GBM). See Deploying Kanzi applications to Linux.
INTEGRITY (Vivante fbdev, WSEGL, Renesas WM, GHS FB, GHS GBM). See Deploying Kanzi applications RCar Gen3/INTEGRITY.
Nucleus (Vivante fbdev, AXSB)
