    3 The Xilinx Embedded Development Kit searches a number of directories for files related to the construction of projects. One of these folders is the EDK user repository. Xilinx intends this repository to serve as the location for custom platform support and peripheral files which will be used by multiple EDK projects.
     3All the cores that are developed at Rice are available as a download from our Subversion repository. This includes the OFDM model, custom MAC layers, WARPLab toolbox and the repository for EDK.

    5 The bulk of the WARP platform support files can be installed in the EDK user repository to enable the use of the platform for new projects. There are a number of ways to assemble the files in your local repository:
     5 1. Acquire [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ TortoiseSVN] (or an SVN client of your choosing, but be aware the directions stated here will be specifically for TortoiseSVN).
     6 1. Create the folder ''C:\WARP_Repository''.
     7 1. Right-click in the empty folder, and click "SVN Checkout."[[BR]]
     8  [[Image(GettingStarted/Images:userRepo_stage1.jpg, align=center)]]
     9 1. Enter "http://warp.rice.edu/svn/WARP" into the field for the URL of the repository.[[BR]]
     10  [[Image(GettingStarted/Images:userRepo_stage2.jpg, align=center)]]
     11 1. Click OK. This may take several minutes for all the files to transfer.

    7  1. Use a Subversion client. See [wiki:FAQ/EDK#HowdoIinstalltheWARPsupportfiles this entry] in the FAQ for details. See our [wiki:repositoryAccess repository access] page for more details on using Subversion.
    8  1. Use our [wiki:installers/edk_user_repository EDK User Repository Installer].
    9  1. Manually build the following file hierarchy using files from the [source:/ WARP repository].
     13At this point you have the entire repository available locally.

    23 }}}
     15For EDK to recognize the custom cores:
     16 1. Launch EDK and go to Edit->Preferences. In the Application Preferences section, set the Global Peripheral Repository to be ''C:\WARP_Repository\edk_user_repository''.
     17 1. Also, if using 9.1 tools install [wiki:FAQ/PlatformSupportPackages#HowdoIinstallsysgen2opb sysgen2opb] and [wiki:OPBExportTool OPB Export Tool].

     19For MATLAB to recognize the WARPLab toolbox:
     20 1. Launch MATLAB.
     21 1. Type 'addpath "C:\WARP_Repository\ResearchApps\PHY\WARPLAB\WARPLab_MIMO2x2_MIMO4x4\M_Code_Source"' on the command line.
     22 1. And then execute 'savepath'. This will ensure that the toolbox is added to the MATLAB path permanently.
