It is designed to be used with Qemu's +virtual FAT file system support. Qemu can make a directory on +the host computer appear as a FAT file system to the simulated +system. This capability appears to have limits on the number +and size of files as well as some limitations about writes +from the simulated system appearing in the native file system. +But this should be useful for testing interpreters like Parrot, +Mono, or the RTEMS Shell. + +When testing an interpreter, you often want to have the same +executable exercised with different arguments or input files. +With this setup, you can copy those test support files into +the host directory and the RTEMS "main" will use those in +support of the testing. |
