Programming Howto:Building and Customizing BCI2000: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 15:25, 14 August 2018

This tutorial walks you through the process of obtaining the BCI2000 source distribution, and using it to build and test your own custom filters, implemented in C++ inside your own custom core module. It assumes that you have a good working knowledge of the C++ language, and basic familiarity with the compiler/IDE that you are going to use.

This tutorial is a simplified version of the previous Programming Howto:Quickstart Guide, which is slightly outdated but kept in the wiki as it contains valuable suggestions and exercises.
