QNX Software Development Platform
QNX SDP is a cross-compiling and debugging environment, including an IDE and command-line tools, for building binary images and programs for target boards running QNX Neutrino 7.1.
Programming
Getting Started with QNX Neutrino
Getting Started with QNX Neutrino: A Guide for Realtime Programmers is intended to introduce you to the QNX Neutrino RTOS and help you develop applications and resource managers for it.
Sample Programs
This appendix contains the complete versions of some of the sample programs discussed in this book.

QNX Momentics IDE User's Guide
This User's Guide describes version 7.1 of the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that's part of the QNX Momentics tool suite.

    - Processes and Threads
    - Message Passing
      In this chapter, we'll look at the most distinctive feature of QNX Neutrino, message passing. Message passing lies at the heart of the operating system's microkernel architecture, giving the OS its modularity.
    - Clocks, Timers, and Getting a Kick Every So Often
      It's time to take a look at everything related to time in the QNX Neutrino RTOS. We'll see how and why you'd use timers and the theory behind them. Then we'll take a look at getting and setting the realtime clock.
    - Interrupts
      In this chapter, we'll take a look at interrupts, how we deal with them under QNX Neutrino, their impact on scheduling and realtime, and some interrupt-management strategies.
    - Resource Managers
      In this chapter, we'll take a look at what you need to understand in order to write a resource manager. Resource managers are another distintive feature of QNX Neutrino that allow you to access services through standard POSIX calls.

      - time1.c
        For more information about this program, see Server-maintained timeouts in the Clocks, Timers, and Getting a Kick Every So Often chapter.
      - tp1.c
        For more information about this program, see Controlling the number of threads in the Processes and Threads chapter.
      - tt1.c
        For more information about this program, see Kernel timeouts with pthread_join() in the Clocks, Timers, and Getting a Kick Every So Often chapter.
    - Glossary
  - Programmer's Guide
    The QNX Neutrino Programmer's Guide covers a variety of topics that might interest developers who are building applications that will run under the QNX Neutrino RTOS.
  - The QNX Neutrino Cookbook: Recipes for Programmers
  - Writing a Resource Manager
- Sensor Framework
- System Security Guide
  The QNX System Security Guide is intended for both system integrators who are responsible for the security of a QNX Neutrino RTOS system and developers who want to create a QNX Neutrino resource manager free from vulnerabilities.
- Utilities & Libraries
QNX Hypervisor
The QNX Hypervisor allows you to run multiple OSs on a target system so you can separate critical and non-critical functions, support a wide variety of applications, and reduce hardware costs.
QNX Software in the Cloud
QNX Software in the Cloud enables developers to use the QNX software in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure (Azure).
QNX Advanced Virtualization Frameworks User's Guide
This User's Guide is aimed at all systems integrators and developers who want to design and build embedded systems using the QNX Advanced Virtualization Frameworks.
Typographical Conventions, Support, and Licensing
This section describes the typographical conventions used throughout the documentation and explains how to obtain technical support.
