Hello Denis,

welcome to the mailing list!

In addition to Martin's recommendation, you can also find another (much simpler) example at 'os/src/test/fault_detection/' and the accompanied run script at 'os/run/fault_detection.run'. The program starts a child component and responds to an invalid memory access by the child. In contrast to init, you can see the mechanics of creating the child in a single source file.

Cheers Norman

Hi Denis,

You might have a look at the init component [1]. It creates children according to a given configuration. An example configuration can be found in (almost) all run scripts as init is the only child of Genodes core component and in this role responsible for starting all other components. Just look out for the call to 'install_config' in a run script (a good example is the timer test [2]).

Cheers, Martin

Hello,

I am looking for information on how to develop a parent component which creates new children (just the basics).

I read the first 3 chapters of the Genode book which gave me the theoretical information, but I could not find the practical information/tutorials on how to create a child component. Is there a good example in the source code of genode?

Best regards Denis
