Run a Sample Project Using the Command Line

Intel® oneAPI IoT Toolkit
To run the Intel oneAPI IoT Toolkit on a remote system, see Running an Eclipse* Built Application on an SSH Target.
If you have not already configured your development environment, go to Configure Your System then return to this page. If you have already completed the steps to configure your system, continue with the steps below.
Command line development can be done with a terminal window or done through Visual Studio Code*. For details on how to use VS Code locally, see Basic Usage of Visual Studio Code with oneAPI on Linux*. To use VS Code remotely, see Remote Visual Studio Code Development with oneAPI on Linux*.
To compile and run a sample:
  1. Download the sample using the oneAPI CLI Samples Browser.
  2. Compile and run the sample with
    CMake*
    .

Download Samples using the oneAPI CLI Samples Browser

Use the oneAPI CLI Samples Browser to browse the collection of online oneAPI samples. As you browse the oneAPI samples, you can copy them to your local disk as buildable sample projects. Most oneAPI sample projects are built using Make or CMake, so the build instructions are included as part of the sample in a README file. The oneAPI CLI utility is a single-file, stand-alone executable that has no dependencies on dynamic runtime libraries.
An internet connection is required to download the samples for oneAPI toolkits. For information on how to use this toolkit offline, see Developing with Offline Systems in the Troubleshooting section.
  1. Open a
    terminal session
    .
  2. If you did not complete the steps in One time set up for setvars.sh in the Configure Your System section,
    set
     system variables by
    sourcing
     setvars:
    For root or sudo installations: 
    . opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
    For local user installations: 
    . ~/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
    The command above assumes you installed to the default folder. If you customized the installation folder,
    setvars.sh
     is in your custom folder.
    The
    setvars.sh
     script can be managed using a configuration file, which is especially helpful if you need to initialize specific versions of libraries or the compiler, rather than defaulting to the "latest" version. For more details, see Using a Configuration File to Manage Setvars.sh..
    If you need to setup the environment in a non-POSIX shell, see
    oneAPI Development Environment Setup for more configuration options.
  3. In the same
    terminal
    window, run the application
    (it should be in your PATH)
    : 
    oneapi-cli
    The oneAPI CLI menu appears:
  4. Move the arrow key down to select
    Create a project
    , then press
    Enter
    . The language selection will appear. If you installed
    Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit
    , but you want to work with the
    Intel® oneAPI IoT Toolkit
     and samples, ensure the IoT toolkit is installed. If it is not installed, install the toolkit then return to step 1 of this procedure.
  5. Select the language for your sample. For your first project, select
    cpp
    , then press
    Enter
    . The toolkit samples list appears.
  6. Use the down arrow to move down the list until you find the Intel® oneAPI IoT Toolkit section. Select the
    Hello IoT World
     sample.
    Hello IoT World
     is a simple test application that will help verify that the tools are setup correctly and can access your system's GPU:
  7. After you select a sample, press
    Enter
    .
  8. Specify the location for the project. The default location includes the path from where the utility was run and the name of the project.
  9. Press
    Tab
     to select Create, then press
    Enter
    :
Now that you have a sample downloaded, compile and run the sample with CMake:

Build and Run a Sample Project using CMake*

If you have not installed CMake, follow the directions Configure Your System.
Build and Run the
hello_iot_world
 Program
 using CMake:
From the
hello_iot_world
 directory, run the following commands: 

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make 
make run
make clean
A "Hello IoT" will appear on the command line.
Next, begin debugging the application with
gdb-ia
. GDB will break at start of code.
