Hello World

First, create a Legato version of our old friend "Hello World".

Create a text file called "hello.c" containing the following text:

#include "legato.h"

COMPONENT_INIT
{
    LE_INFO("Hello world.");
}

The COMPONENT_INIT macro defines a component initializer function that Legato automatically runs at process start-up. When Legato builds your code, it automatically defines COMPONENT_INIT to be a proper function declaration (this reduces build setup work).

The component initializer will run LE_INFO() at start-up. LE_INFO() logs a message at the INFO severity level.
