Help needed for adding hardware to arduino ide 2.2.1
this is the repo that i used back in the years when i used it with arduino 1.0
Now i want to add the ability for this hardware to work with IDE 2.2.1
Can someone help on this?
This repo and board is not build from me.
But i love using that board.
Thank you in advance!
An IDE is just a shell around the command line. I had a quick peek at the instructions and see no reason it will not work. I installed it, but it does not show up. My other entry in 'hardware' does, it's the bare atmega328 IIRC.
Here are screen grabs of my 'hardware' folder, it now has 2 extra boards. Let me know if something needs to be changed in order for the 'mighty-1284p' stuff to show up.
Can you use GitHub - MCUdude/MightyCore: Arduino hardware package for ATmega1284, ATmega644, ATmega324, ATmega324PB, ATmega164, ATmega32, ATmega16 and ATmega8535 instead?
It's much more actively supported.
It says needs platform.txt
It doesnt work with it, i tried
Hi @interfan2019. It is impossible to use that boards platform with any version of Arduino IDE higher than 1.0.x:
Even though the changes to make it compatible with newer versions of Arduino IDE are trivial, the creator of the platform had already abandoned the project long before then so it never happened.
The platform is of historical value as one of the pioneering efforts by the community to expand the Arduino hardware ecosystem, but that is its only value.
Even though you could port it to be compatible with Arduino IDE 2.x, you would still be using a thoroughly outdated and abandoned platform so the effort would be pointless. In fact someone else already did that, but also abandoned their fork nearly a decade ago.
Use the superior and reasonably maintained MightyCore as recommended already by @westfw. This is the platform used by the great majority of the Arduino community. It can be installed very easily in Arduino IDE 2.x and works perfectly.
That works perfectly under 2.3.2
Thanks, i will try to make it work with it.
You need to explain what that means. Does your existing code not compile? Or does it compile and upload but does not behave as expected?
If you need assistance with that, I suggest that you start a new topic indicating that you have to / want to switch from GitHub - maniacbug/mighty-1284p: Mighty 1284P Platform for Arduino to GitHub - MCUdude/MightyCore: Arduino hardware package for ATmega1284, ATmega644, ATmega324, ATmega324PB, ATmega164, ATmega32, ATmega16 and ATmega8535, post your code and describe the problems (full compiler output in case of compiler problems, expected and actual behaviour in case you manage to compile/upload); (github) links to all libraries that you use will also be useful. Best place for your new topic will probably be the Microcontroller section on the forum.
thanks ! i made it work with mighty core!
