import java.io.PrintStream;
import ch.ntb.inf.deep.runtime.mpc555.driver.SCI1;
 
public class HelloWorld {
	static {
		// 1) Initialize SCI1 (9600 8N1)
		SCI1.start(9600, SCI1.NO_PARITY, (short)8);
 
		// 2) Use SCI1 for stdout
		System.out = new PrintStream(SCI1.out);
 
		// 3) Say hello to the world
		System.out.println("Hello, world");
	}
}

Open project file: HelloWorld.deep

Add the newly created class to rootclasses. It should then look like this:

project {
	#deep-1

	meta {
		version = "Mon Jan 05 12:40:12 CET 2015";
		description = "deep project file for HelloWorld";
	}

	project HelloWorld {
		libpath = "I:\deep\lib";
		boardtype = ntbMpc555HB;
		ostype = ntbSTS;
		programmertype = ntbMpc555UsbBdi;

	#	enter names of rootclasses, e.g.
	#	rootclasses = "test.MyFirstTestClass","other.MySecondTestClass";
		rootclasses = "ch.ntb.stud.yourName.helloworld.HelloWorld";

	#	imgfile = "M:\Workspace\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.bin";
	#	imgformat = BIN;
