1. A method of configuring software for a target, comprising:
- generating a command file, wherein said generating comprises;
determining one or more commands which specify;
a subset of components selected from a group of components of an operating system for the target; and
one or more parameters for tuning one or more of the selected components in said subset; and
writing said commands in the command file in a single programming language, capable of managing tree structures of objects;
wherein the single programming language is specified using an XML document type definition specifying at least one nestable element predefined to receive an attribute indicating a separate file specifying one or more of the selected components; and
generating an image file according to the command file, wherein the image file comprises loadable software for the target.

Abstract
Configuring software for a target comprises preparing a command file which specifies a subset of components selected from a group of components, and parameters for tuning at least some of the selected subset of components. The command file is written using a single programming language, capable of managing tree structures of objects, preferably an XML type language, having a Document Type Definition enabling it to work as a programming language. An image file is prepared from the command file, to be loaded on the target.

12. A system for configuring software for a target, comprising a host, wherein the host comprises:
-
a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory comprises program instructions executable by the processor to implement; a group of one or more components of an operating system for the target; generating a command file wherein the command file specifies; a subset of components selected from the group of components; parameters for turning at least some of the selected subset of components; information regarding loading of the subset of components on the target; wherein the command file specifies the subset of components, the parameters and the information regarding loading using a single programming language, capable of managing tree structures of objects; wherein the single programming language is specified using an XML document type definition specifying at least one nestable element predefined to receive an attribute indicating a separate file specifying one or more of the selected components; and generating an image file according to the command file. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A tangible, computer readable medium, comprising program instructions computer executable to implement:
-
generating a command file, wherein in said generating comprises; determining one or more commands that specify; a subset of components selected from a group of components of an operating system for the target; and one or more parameters for tuning at least some of the selected components in said subset; and writing said commands in the command file in a single programming language, capable of managing tree structures of objects; wherein the single programming language is specified using a XML document type definition specifying at least one nestable element predefined to receive an attribute indicating a separate file specifying one or more of the selected components; and generating an image file according to the command file, wherein the image file comprises loadable software for the target. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
