Boards package in v1.8.19

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

If I download v1.8.19 from Arduino, will it come with the latest boards package already installed?

If I have to download the latest boards package, is the original boards package in 1.8.19 deleted, or can it be deleted, to recover the space?

2

As IDE 1.x is not being updated, nor has it been for some time, I would expect it to come with the built in boards packages as at the time that development was frozen. This relates only to Arduino boards packages. No third party packages such as ESP etc are included in the download

The IDE 2.x download does not include any boards packages but they are downloaded and installed when the IDE is first run and taht does include ESP32 packages

As a matter of interest, why do you want to use IDE 1.x rather than 2.x ?

3

I think you don't need to update included board packages.
It is generally not good idea to update working packages without specific needs.

Hi @ShermanP.

No. The Arduino IDE 1.8.19 installation includes a bundled copy of version 1.8.3 of the "Arduino AVR Boards" platform. The latest version of that platform is 1.8.6.

You can see the changes that were made to the platform between those two versions here:

"Arduino AVR Boards" is the only platform bundled with the Arduino IDE installation. All other platforms must be installed on demand by the user.

No.

I believe so. Give it a try. If you encounter a problem after that, just restore it.

5

I've always been partial to the portable installation of v1.x, and was told that isn't an option with v2. Also, I continue to see a number of issues reported here with whatever the latest version of v2 is at the moment, and I tend to steer clear of things that complicate my life, particularly since what I'm using now (actually v1.8.8) works quite well. But I thought if 19 came with the latest boards package, it might be worthwhile upgrading to that.

6

If all you want is the latest platform, just use Boards Manager to update to the latest version. You might even have already done that.

However, I do think it is worthwhile to update to 1.8.19. There was quite a lot of work done between 1.8.8 and 1.8.19, and that included removal of the Log4j Java package due to a critical security vulnerability in that package (it should be noted that there was never any evidence that the vulnerability in the package actually resulted in a vulnerability in Arduino IDE, but even so it is really not the sort of thing you want to have running on your computer). I'm not aware of any significant regressions or usability changes that occurred between 1.8.8 and 1.8.19.

7

Ok, so aside from the issue of the boards update, I could in theory simply move the Portable folder to the 1.8.19 folder - before booting it. Portable includes whatever the latest ESP8266 package was at the time. And it should all work. Right?

8

That is correct.

9

That certainly seems like it ought to work, but I just recently tried exactly that going from 1.8.13 to 1.8.19, and the 1.8.18 IDE would crash just after starting (opened all the windows, then crashed.) (Even more interesting: if I started the IDE from a terminal window (this is on MacOS Monterey; YMMV) to see why it was crashing, it would NOT crash, and apparently worked correctly.)

It wasn't worth messing with, and I ended up just copying over the sketchbook and reinstalling the boards from the board manager.

It did look like there might be incompatibilities in the preferences.txt file...

Things I don't like about IDE2:

  1. No portable mode.
  2. don't like the new (tiled) Serial Monitor.
  3. Can't specify the build directory.
10

My sketchbook folder contains my sketches but also my libraries, and one hardware addition (328P on a breadboard). Presumably all of that would transfer successfully. But it's good to know that the other stuff (added boards like ESP8266) might not. Not sure what to think might break in preferences.

11

Sorry to revisit this, but I can't figure out how to use the link provided by @ptillisch in post #4. What I'd like to know is what boards I would not have if I install IDE v1.8.19, but don't update the boards manager.

12

The TL;DR is that there is no reason to use the outdated version of the "Arduino AVR Boards" platform. Use Boards Manager to update to the latest version and move on with your Arduino projects.

The amount of hard drive space used by the extra copy of the platform is insignificant in the context of modern hard drive capacity.

It is purely informational. This is the repository where the source code of the "Arduino AVR Boards" platform is hosted.

There are a couple of ways you might "use" the link, including:

  • As an alternative to looking at the source code of the copy of the platform that is installed on your computer.
    ⓘ For your own personal purposes, it is best to look at the content of the actual files you are using. However, it is useful to be able to reference an online copy of the code when discussing it on the Internet.
  • As a convenient way to view the revision history of the project via the GitHub web interface.
  • In a git clone command to make a local clone of the repository in preparation to working with it using Git.
  • To view the existing bug reports and feature requests in the issue tracker, or submit a new one.
  • To contribute to the development of the project by submitting a pull request (PR)

You can determine this by doing a comparison of the contents of the platform's boards.txt file:
