Title: Atmel AVR toolchain
Post by: EW on August 24, 2009, 05:56:26 pm

Hi All,

My name is Eric Weddington and I'm the creator and admin of the WinAVR toolchain distribution on SourceForge.

I am interested in overall improvements to using CodeBlocks with WinAVR, and with AVR GCC distributions on all other platforms.

Unfortunately my time is extremely limited (I'm working on way too many things). But I can offer myself as a reviewer, and can pass along any ideas for improvements to people interested in improving CodeBlocks for this toolchain.

I'd like to start off with an improvement to the AVR device list. The list needs to be updated to the list below.

Thanks,
Eric Weddington

Hi Eric,

OpenOCD takes care of the target microcontroller, so it's not really relevant to CodeBlocks.
Codeblocks is an IDE, handling the compiler and GDB.

Cheers,


Martin.

The (pre)compiler needs to know the target. (For example to get addresses of peripherals.)

That's great. I use C::B together with WinAVR. CodeBlocks has rather good support to AVR MCU, I hope now it will be even better.

Yes, but IDE should have to be configured to send to compiler correct option's for target MCU to build program code.
For example as for now C::B has no support for xmega line of MCU's - I mean checkboxes in compiler settings.

Patches are welcome and if it's just checkboxes they are easy to implemement. I can't do as I don't work with such targets ATM.

Patches are welcome...

Here they are:
First patch adds these missing targets to the list.
The second patch adds the post build command to generate the listing (currently the option is available in the wizzard, but no command gets generated).

how do I install these patches?

Probably u won't need to as they are with a high possibility already included as of the current version.

They are in trunk for a long time now. Just grab a nightly. IIRC they are even in 10/05 (but I am not 100% sure).

I just looked into the sources: they are in 10.05 release.

So you can also use the official release, if you can not (or do not want to) use anightly-build.
