Build Third-Party Component
###########################

Building third-party components is a standard procedure after setting up the cross-compilation environment. If the project uses ``configure``, you must specify the correct host triplet for your target platform.

.. note:: 
    
    Before you run the following commands, ensure you have :ref:`setup the cross compilation environment <cross_compilation_setup>`.

.. tabs::

   .. tab:: eLxr SDK (Modalix)

      For eLxr-based Modalix targets, use the ``aarch64-linux-gnu`` host triplet.

      .. code-block:: bash

          user@elxr-sdk:~$ sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y autoconf automake libtool
          user@elxr-sdk:~$ git clone https://github.com/htop-dev/htop.git
          user@elxr-sdk:~$ cd htop
          user@elxr-sdk:~/htop$ ./autogen.sh
          user@elxr-sdk:~/htop$ ./configure --host=aarch64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr
          user@elxr-sdk:~/htop$ make

      Copy the binary to the DevKit and run it:

      .. code-block:: bash

          user@elxr-sdk:~/htop$ scp htop sima@<Modalix-IP>:~/
          user@elxr-sdk:~/htop$ ssh sima@<Modalix-IP> "./htop"
          
   .. tab:: Yocto SDK (MLSoC)

      For Yocto-based MLSoC targets, use the ``aarch64-poky-linux`` host triplet.

      .. code-block:: bash

          user@yocto-sdk:~$ git clone https://github.com/htop-dev/htop.git
          user@yocto-sdk:~$ cd htop
          user@yocto-sdk:~/htop$ ./autogen.sh
          user@yocto-sdk:~/htop$ ./configure --host=aarch64-poky-linux --prefix=/usr
          user@yocto-sdk:~/htop$ make

      Copy the binary to the DevKit and run it:

      .. code-block:: bash

          user@yocto-sdk:~/htop$ scp htop sima@<MLSoC-IP>:~/
          user@yocto-sdk:~/htop$ ssh sima@<MLSoC-IP> "./htop"

   .. tab:: On-Device Compilation

      .. _on_device_compilation:

      One of the primary benefits of **Modalix (eLxr)** is the ability to build components directly on the target hardware, bypassing the need for a cross-compilation environment entirely.

      1. Connect to your Modalix device via SSH.
      2. Install the standard Debian build-essential tools:

      .. code-block:: bash

          sima@modalix:~$ sudo apt update
          sima@modalix:~$ sudo apt install -y build-essential autoconf automake git

      3. Clone and build the project on-device:

      .. code-block:: bash

          sima@modalix:~$ git clone https://github.com/htop-dev/htop.git
          sima@modalix:~$ cd htop
          sima@modalix:~/htop$ ./autogen.sh
          sima@modalix:~/htop$ ./configure --prefix=/usr
          sima@modalix:~/htop$ make
          sima@modalix:~/htop$ ./htop
