# Prepare WASM building environments
WASI-SDK version 7.0+ is the major tool supported by WAMR for building WASM applications. There are some other WASM compilers such as the standard clang compiler and Emscripten might also work [here](./other_wasm_compilers.md).
Install WASI SDK: Download the [wasi-sdk](https://github.com/CraneStation/wasi-sdk/releases) and extract the archive to default path `/opt/wasi-sdk`
Build WASM applications
=========================
You can write a simple ```test.c``` as the first sample.
``` C
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char *buf;
printf("Hello world!\n");
buf = malloc(1024);
if (!buf) {
printf("malloc buf failed\n");
return -1;
}
printf("buf ptr: %p\n", buf);
sprintf(buf, "%s", "1234\n");
printf("buf: %s", buf);
free(buf);
return 0;
}
```
To build the source file to WASM bytecode, input following command:
``` Bash
/opt/wasi-sdk/bin/clang test.c -o test.wasm
```
# Build a project with cmake
If you have complex WASM application project which contains dozens of source files, you can consider using cmake for project building.
You can cross compile your project by using the toolchain provided by WAMR.
We can generate a `CMakeLists.txt` file for `test.c`:
``` cmake
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.5)
project(hello_world)
set (CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS},--export=main")
add_executable(hello_world test.c)
```
It is simple to build this project by cmake:
``` Bash
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$WAMR_ROOT/wamr-sdk/app/wamr_toolchain.cmake
make
```
You will get ```hello_world``` which is the WASM app binary.
> Note: If you have already built a SDK profile, then the **DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE** should be changed into `$WAMR_ROOT/wamr-sdk/out/${PROFILE}/app-sdk/wamr_toolchain.cmake`
# Compile WASM to AoT module
Please ensure the wamrc was already generated and available in your shell PATH. Then we can use wamrc to compile WASM app binary to WAMR AoT binary.
``` Bash
wamrc -o test.aot test.wasm
```
wamrc supports a number of compilation options through the command line arguments:
``` Bash
wamrc --help
Usage: wamrc [options] -o output_file wasm_file
--target=<arch-name> Set the target arch, which has the general format: <arch><sub>
<arch> = x86_64, i386, arm, thumb, mips.
Default is host arch, e.g. x86_64
<sub> = for ex. on arm or thumb: v5, v6m, v7a, v7m, etc.
Use --target=help to list supported targets
--target-abi=<abi> Set the target ABI, e.g. gnu, eabi, gnueabihf, etc. (default: gnu)
Use --target-abi=help to list all the ABI supported
--cpu=<cpu> Set the target CPU (default: host CPU, e.g. skylake)
Use --cpu=help to list all the CPU supported
--cpu-features=<features> Enable or disable the CPU features
Use +feature to enable a feature, or -feature to disable it
For example, --cpu-features=+feature1,-feature2
Use --cpu-features=+help to list all the features supported
--opt-level=n Set the optimization level (0 to 3, default: 3, which is fastest)
--size-level=n Set the code size level (0 to 3, default: 3, which is smallest)
-sgx Generate code for SGX platform (Intel Software Guard Extention)
--format=<format> Specifies the format of the output file
The format supported:
aot (default) AoT file
object Native object file
llvmir-unopt Unoptimized LLVM IR
llvmir-opt Optimized LLVM IR
Examples: wamrc -o test.aot test.wasm
wamrc --target=i386 -o test.aot test.wasm
wamrc --target=i386 --format=object -o test.o test.wasm
```
Run WASM app in WAMR mini product build
========================
Run the test.wasm or test.aot with WAMR mini product build:
``` Bash
./iwasm test.wasm or
./iwasm test.aot
```
You will get the following output:
```
Hello world!
buf ptr: 0x400002b0
buf: 1234
```
If you would like to run the test app on Zephyr, we have embedded a test sample into its OS image. You will need to execute:
```
ninja run
```
