GD2.h:329:27: error: 'prog_uchar' does not name a type

Hardware Arduino Yún
#1

Hi, does have some one an idea how i can fix this error?

Arduino: 1.5.7 (Linux), Board: "Arduino Yún"

Build options changed, rebuilding all In file included from Arduino_SolMAX.ino:5:0: /home/kroki/Arduino/sketchbook/libraries/Gameduino2/GD2.h:329:27: error: 'prog_uchar' does not name a type void copy(const PROGMEM prog_uchar *src, int count); ^ /home/kroki/Arduino/sketchbook/libraries/Gameduino2/GD2.h:329:39: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'src' with no type [-fpermissive] void copy(const PROGMEM prog_uchar *src, int count); ^

This report would have more information with "Show verbose output during compilation" enabled in File > Preferences.

The new Arduino 1.5.7 BETA has a few differences. previous: prog_uchar text[] PROGMEN = { "Hello World" }; now: const unsigned char text[] PROGMEM = { "Hello World" };

THX for the answer, but it sdosen't solve the problem. I tried the lib with the version 1.0.5 and it doesen't work too on Linux. On Win 8.1 this lib works with the ver 1.0.5. I'm confused while before my computer crashed and I had to install fedora new the lib was working.

Is that a GameDuino library ? Can you post a link to the library that you use ?

#5

Jepp it's the Library for the Gameduino2. you'll find the lib under http://excamera.com/sphinx/gameduino2/code.html#gd2code

That library is recent (januari 2014) but not yet adapted for Arduino 1.5.7. You can do it yourself, change all the "prog_uchar". If it runs in Windows with Arduino 1.0.5, you should be able to run Arduino 1.0.5 in linux.

Your problem with Fedora seems to be another problem. Perhaps some old Arduino files are in your system, from a previous installed version. Also check that you have a good set of Java installed. The new Arduino 1.5.7 seems to be less dependent on the Java.

ok, i'll try to get it on linux with the version 1.0.5. if i start arduino then i see

[kroki@local ~]$ arduino WARNING: RXTX Version mismatch Jar version = RXTX-2.2 native lib Version = RXTX-2.2pre2

it's look like i've a problem with the java.

the installation of fedora is new. so i don't have some old files on it.

That is a problem, the librxtx-java. Can you try removing it from the repositories ?

#9

I don't find this resporitori in my installation :-(

#10

anything with rxtx ?

#11

thx,

i removed rxtx and took the androino 1.0.5 from the web.

now the skech compiles.

now i have the errors Native lib Version = RXTX-2.1-7 Java lib Version = RXTX-2.1-7 check_group_uucp(): error testing lock file creation Error details:Keine Berechtigungcheck_lock_status: No permission to create lock file. please see: How can I use Lock Files with rxtx? in INSTALL

But i think that's a problem that i can solve.

felix :-)

TXH Peter_n for your help. I fixed now the version 1.0.5. Also I installed the version 1.5.6 r2 and this works with the GD Library. So I don't have to change it :-).

Cool.
The newest BETA has many improvements for the Due and the Yun.

I see this: “Fixed CRC of shutdown command on YunSerialTerminal example”, but that’s only a change in a tutorial.
I hope the rest is also not a big problem for the Yun.
