    Hi, I was wondering if there’s a guide for compiling from source.

     

    I gave it a shot with amtel studio6 but hit a few hundred snags. What are you guys using for development? Can you share your project files on Github? thanks in advance.

    I found this document in the wiki http://www.synthetos.com/wiki/index.php?title=Projects:TinyG-Developer-Info-Project-Details&oldid=1959. But it’s written for Studio4. Is this still the dev setup?

    We are still using Studio4. We tried 5 and it was buggy, and ultimately more clicks to get through the dev and test cycles. We have not gone to 6 yet. If you get it running in 6 can you let us know?

    Thanks

    Yeah, it’s pretty special. The data type prog_char disappeared and you have to use the directive prog_mem… grrr I’ll get it working.

    Making some progress.  Studio 6 has a neat build from make file add on which actually worked, and adding “-Wno-deprecated-declarations -D__PROG_TYPES_COMPAT_” to the Flags covers the lost data type.  I’m still getting a few hundred

    “Error 303 variable must be const in order to be put into read-only section by means of ‘__attribute__((progmem))'” 

    I’ll try throw const in front of them and see if that get me there.

    I have never seen that error because I have not tried 6. Thanks for hammering through this.

    400 or so ‘const’ seemed to work. That is to say it compiled and it’s about the right size… I don’t have my board on me now so I’ll test it later.

    Good news. I’ll have to get the source from you. Did you use the master branch?

    yup, working from the master. The port wasn’t that bad really:

    Add “-Wno-deprecated-declarations -D__PROG_TYPES_COMPAT_ ” to the flags in the make file
    Add const to anything that is PROGMEM , such as; static PGM_P const  msg_am[] PROGMEM const static char msg_am09[] PROGMEM…
    Move the *getcFuncs[] table into SRAM

    I’m nervous to claim success just yet tho, It builds, doesn’t mean it works.

    Great. Let me know if it actually works. We should the make the changes to the code base for compatibility reasons.

    Nope, not working, can connect but not responding to any commands (x1). Strange.
