Hi @Josaphat_Aviles  unfortunately this video is a little outdated, but we are currently working on a newer version. This script was used to copy your own public ssh key to the App Build Environment. This is not needed for any function in the SDK, but it makes life easier for you, because you don't have to insert the user and password all the time. In case of Public key authentication you have a private key and a public key (text) file. The public key file is copied to the computer you want to connect to (in our case the App Build Environment), the private key is secret. SSH tools are using you private key during a SSH connection instead of user/password. Here you can learn more on: What is SSH Public Key Authentication? So if you don't have the script to copy the public key to your App Build Environment you can simply do this by hand. For example like this (you could also use scp commands if you want to): Check if you got a id_rsa key pair on your windows host. If not, create one. Check if you got this key pair in C:/Users/user/.ssh   If you don't got a key pair create one with "ssh-keygen -t rsa" (don't enter a passphrase)   Copy the public key copie out the whole id_rsa public key   Paste it to the App Build Environment  Make a conection to your App Build Environment and paste the public key at /home/boschrexroth/.ssh/authorized_keys   ...

Hi @Josaphat_Aviles, in the video on YouTube still version 1.14 is used. In newer Versions these install-scripts are in the folder "scritps". So to download the ctrlX SDK from GitHub and install it into your App Build Environment use the following command in "~": "./scripts/install-sdk.sh". Which version are you currently using? If you are using V1.20 this community post is important for you. Best regards,  Nick ... View more

Hi Alex, this guide shows you how to setup Ubuntu Desktop running in a virtual machine using Oracle VirtualBox on a Windows host system as a development environment for the ctrlX AUTOMATION SDK. Please keep in mind that our recommended development environment is still the App Build Environment included in the ctrlX WORKS. Because in this App Build Environment a lot of packages you will need are automatically installed when you create it.  But if you still want to use a self created virtual machine or any other setup you will need to install these packages by hand. You can see the list of packages which are installed in our App Build Environment if you look at the cloud-config file (starting with line 28).  I totally agree with you that this guide is a bit misleading here. That's why it will be updated.  I hope, I was able to help you with my explanation. And I hope the updated guide will be better to understand.  Best regards,  Nick ... View more

You're shared object needs to be packed into the bundle.zip and the shared object needs to be defined in the "Export-Library:" of the Bundle-Manifest. Here you can see a sample:  left side: bundle-manifest / right side: the unziped bundle   To achieve that add this to your (private/bundle/)CMakeLists.txt:      ... View more
