To install this archive:

  2. Download the archive wma9-datestamp.zip.

    • On Linux:

      unzip wma9-datestamp.zip -d base_directory

    • On Windows, use WinZip.
  5. Copy the contents of base_directory/deployment into $QNX_DEPLOYMENT_WORKSPACE, which is the same directory you set up for building your target images (see the instructions in the "Building a target image" section of the Getting Started guide).
  6. Add the fileset basefs.mm.extra.wma9.xml to your board's profile. In the file $QNX_DEPLOYMENT_WORKSPACE/infra/product/AnM/board_variant/os.xml, add the line 
    <include-fileset name="basefs.mm.extra.wma9.xml"/>
    to the basefs package section. This is usually at the top of the file.
  7. Rebuild your target image to include the files shipped with this package. For full instructions for building target images, see the Getting Started guide.
