Wind River Help

Hello,

I having been having issues building an ".out" file to download to the cRio. Before I get into to much detail about my issue, I'll first state what I can do.

I have downloaded and followed sections 1-5 including benchmark testing and have been successful.
I have downloaded the WPI library and copied the files into the correct folder.
I have created a new "Example" project in Wind River (Simple Robot Template from the Kernel Module Sample wizard), built it and downloaded it to the cRio. I even changed some values in the programing to ensure it wasn't the default code, so I know how to build ".out" files and download them to the cRio.
I have some background in C++ and I am comfortable with the language.

My issue:

I could simply use the example project, and manipulate it as needed to create a program for the robot, however, I would much prefer to be able to create my own project by extending classes. I have tried to create new projects and have been unsuccessful. I am not sure what the issue is. I've tried copying the code from the Simple Robot Template (MyRobot.cpp) into a new project, but this has not helped either. I may not be including the files properly, although I have downloaded and copied them into "C:\WindRiver\WPILib" as instructed.

Would someone be able to give (or link) me a step by step procedure to create a successful ".out" file? For convince, you could use the code from the Simple Robot Template (MyRobot.cpp).

Thank you
