oops - I will slow down -

Blink runs in Arduino under OSX

Now I understand the Build Options - I get a clean build but when I try to UPLOAD the Blink app I get:

/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Resources/Java/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avrdude -D -patmega328p -C/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Resources/Java/hardware/tools/avr/etc/avrdude.conf -carduino -b115200 -P/dev/tty.usbmodem26421 -Uflash:w:Builds/embeddedcomputing.hex:i

Avrdude: can't open input file Builds/embeddedcomputing.hex: No such file or directory

Looks as though I have not done something!

My thanks and apologies for any confusion.

[Reply #211 on:]

The target UPLOAD requires the file Builds/embeddedcomputing.hex to be ready.

Have you checked that the file Builds/embeddedcomputing.hex is available?

Use instead the target ALL = CLEAN + BUILD the sketch + ULPOAD to the board + SERIAL console.

It might be easier to use the contact form to send me the content of the Log Navigator.

The maintenance of the embedXcode template is really difficult due to Apple secrecy around and lack of documentation on Xcode.

So I'm considering switching from Xcode to another IDE.

Here's an open letter to Apple Xcode team. Feel free to send it to members of the Apple Xcode team you know.

Thank you for your help

Dear Xcode Team,

Xcode offers superior features and ergonomics compared with other IDEs running on OS X.
Unfortunately, its restricted documentation prevents from using many of its features.

I'm using Xcode as a development tool for embedded computing platforms.
As at today, the embedXcode template supports Arduino, Diligent chipKIT with MPIDE, Texas Instruments' Launchpad with Energia, Leaflab Maple, Teensy, Wiring, and has received a warm welcome from the embedded computing community.

The issues I'm currently facing are mostly linked to the lack of available documentation.
The books available on Xcode focus on how to use the tool, not on how to customise it. Similarly, Apple doesn't provide any clues about its inner structure.
For example, keywords used by the templates are not documented. Neither is using other tool-chains, albeit the specific Toolchains folder.

Is Xcode solely limited OS X and iOS development?
By just releasing some documentation on Xcode inner organisation and customisation, Apple can easily make Xcode the best choice for developers.

Otherwise, I'd have no option but to switch to another IDE and to abandon OS X.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Best regards,

Please find the new release of embedXcode

embedXcode • Nov 24, 2012 release 23 • Fixed WiFi issue on Arduino 1.0.2 and 1.5.x   
User Manual • Nov 24, 2012 release 17 • New section Dealing with Issues

embedXcode release 23 includes the additional optional parameter EXCLUDE_LIBS in the main makefile to black-list libraries.

Issues have been reported for the WiFi library on Arduino 1.0.2 and the Firmata library with Teensy 3.0.

Edit the makefile on you project and add the names of the libraries to exclude:

Code:

# List the libraries to be excluded
# For example, WiFi may crash on Arduino 1.0.2
# For example, Firmata may crash on Teensy 3.0
#
EXCLUDE_LIBS = Firmata WiFi WiFi/utility

I'm having issues getting my sketch to compile in Xcode for the Uno. It works fine in the Arduino IDE.

When I run a compile, I get the error:

/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Resources/Java/libraries/Esplora/Esplora.cpp:54: error: 'A11' was not declared in this scope
make: *** [Builds/libs/Esplora/Esplora.o] Error 1

I've attached the full error log.

I get this same error with a fresh embedxcode project too. Any ideas where I've gone wrong?

[Reply #217 on:]

This is strange as your target is UNO.

I suggest you to edit the makefile on you project and add the names of the libraries to exclude:

Code:

# List the libraries to be excluded
# For example, WiFi may crash on Arduino 1.0.2
# For example, Esplora may crash on Arduino 1.0.3
# For example, Firmata may crash on Teensy 3.0
#
EXCLUDE_LIBS = Firmata WiFi WiFi/utility Esplora

It seems the Processing IDE is reaching its limits with the new Arduino products.

Thank you for reporting this issue. Please keep me informed of the result as I'm focused on the 1.5.x release 

[Reply #218 on:]

Excluding the Esplora lib worked. Thanks.

[Reply #219 on:]

Thank you for the feed-back.

Please find the new release

Running into another problem: I'm trying to build a project on the Due, and I get the following error:

This is with Arduino 1.5.1 and the latest embedxcode. I can compile and upload form Arduino, but even a brand new project in embedxcode fails to compile. Full log is attached

[Reply #221 on:]

Problem is, I don't own an Arduino Due, so I can't proceed with the required tests.

I'll see what I can do.

Please find an updated version of embedXcode with successful compilation for Arduino Due.

• Download: http://embedxcode.weebly.com/download

Please let me know how the upload works so I could improve it.

Thank you!

Please find a new release of embedXcode

embedXcode • Jan 15, 2013 release 26 • Support for Arduino Due — Build, link and upload tested

Arduino Due is now fully supported thanks to the help of a user who proceeded with the build, link and upload tests.

Many thanks to Mike!

Hi Avenue33,

thanks for this development, I still have problems creating index and by trying to understand found that in the step1.mk file you also exclude OneWire :

Code:

# List of sub-paths to be excluded
#
EXCLUDE_NAMES  = Example example Examples examples Archive archive Archives archives Documentation documentation Reference reference
EXCLUDE_NAMES += ArduinoTestSuite OneWire
EXCLUDE_NAMES += $(EXCLUDE_LIBS)
EXCLUDE_LIST   = $(addprefix %,$(EXCLUDE_NAMES))

Any special reason for this ?
Thanks !
