Using CB for ARM development

<< < (2/4) > >>

scarphin:
I can confirm that on win7. It's because a typo in the script 'share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard\arm\wizard.script' at line 25:

--- Code: ---Wizard.AddCompilerPage(_T(""), _T("armelf*"), false, false);
--- End code ---
It should be:

--- Code: ---Wizard.AddCompilerPage(_T(""), _T("arm*"), false, true);
--- End code ---
to find the compiler and to allow for target options.

oBFusCATed:
scarphin, yes you're correct I'm using this patch:

--- Code: ---diff --git a/src/plugins/scriptedwizard/resources/arm/wizard.script b/src/plugins/scriptedwizard/resources/arm/wizard.script

Would this work on windows?

scarphin:
I think it's safer to go with 'arm*' instead of 'arm-elf*' because in '\share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard\common_functions.script' every arm related compiler is marked with 'arm*'. Although 'arm*' will match with 'arm-elf', I don't think there is any reason to introduce inconsistency between the wizard and the scripts nor rename available arm compilers to 'arm-elf*'. For a matter of fact arm-eabi compilers (i.e. for raspberry pi) can be used with cb too. Using 'arm-elf*' works btw.

Abdalla:
It worked on windows, but I get a message next to the windows clock it says can't find compiler executables. I will check this, meanwhile how to add ARM boards to the IDE ?

You have to modify the wizard script: 'path_to_cb_installation\share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard\arm\wizard.script'
Or right click on the 'ARM Project' icon in 'file->new->project' and click 'edit this script' to use a modified version without affecting the original.
