| Native Client SDK
|
| #################
|
|
|
| -This is the index of the ``sdk`` directory.
|
| +To build Native Client modules, you must download and install the Native
|
| +Client Software Development Kit (SDK).
|
| +
|
| +The SDK includes the following:
|
| +
|
| +support for multiple Pepper versions
|
| + The SDK contains **bundles** that let you compile Native Client modules
|
| + using different versions of the
|
| + `Pepper API </overview.html#link_pepper>`_
|
| + (e.g., Pepper 30 or Pepper Canary). Review the
|
| + :doc:`Release Notes <release-notes>` for a description of the new features
|
| + included in each Pepper version to help you decide which bundle to
|
| + use to develop your application. In general, Native Client modules
|
| + compiled using a particular Pepper version will work in
|
| + corresponding versions of Chrome and higher. For example, a module
|
| + compiled using the Pepper 30 platform will work in Chrome 30 and
|
| + higher.
|
| +
|
| +update utility
|
| + The ``naclsdk`` utility (``naclsdk.bat`` on Windows) lets you download new
|
| + bundles that are available, as well as new versions of existing bundles.
|
| +
|
| +toolchains
|
| + Each platform includes three toolchains---one for Portable Native Client
|
| + (PNaCl) applications, one for compiling architecture-specific Native
|
| + Client applications with newlib, and a third native NaCl toolchain for
|
| + compiling with glibc. Newlib and glibc are two different implementations
|
| + of the C standard library. All toolchains contain Native Client-compatible
|
| + versions of standard compilers, linkers, and other tools.
|
| + See :doc:`this document </nacl-and-pnacl>` to help you choose the
|
| + right toolchain.
|
| +
|
| +examples
|
| + Each example in the SDK includes C or C++ source files and header files
|
| + illustrating how to use NaCl and Pepper, along with a Makefile to build
|
| + the example using each of the toolchains.
|
| +
|
| +tools
|
| + The SDK includes a number of additional tools, which you can use for
|
| + tasks such as validating Native Client modules and running modules
|
| + from the command line.
|
| +
|
| +To download and install the SDK, follow the instructions on the
|
| +:ref:`Download <download>` page.
