Toolchain Setup Error? Cannot compile...

[boewie]

Hi there!

I am trying to set up the C Code Environment but I run into trouble when trying to compile one of the example projects. In general, I followed the instructions within C Support for NI myRIO 1.0 User Guide.

I have been trying this for a while and I am getting the feeling that it is something very simple (but critical), so I am kindly asking for someone's help who has experience with the C Coding Environment.

The error message I get is simply:

17:42:06 **** Rebuild of configuration Debug for project myRIO Example - PWM ****
Info: Internal Builder is used for build
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -DMyRio_1900 "-IC:\\Users\\boewie\\workspace\\myRIO\\C Support for NI myRIO\\source" -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -o main.o "..\\main.c"
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: CreateProcess: No such file or directory

17:42:06 Build Finished (took 98ms)

Further, in the code editor it says "Unresolved inclusion: [...]" to

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

Is it possible that the C/C++ standard headers are not properly setup? I have cygwin and MS Visual Studio installed.

The cross compiler can be invoked from the Windows command console, so I assume that the PATH variable is set up correctly.

Do I need to install any generic C/C++ build tools?

Are the spaces withing the C API path critical?

Thanks in advance!

Hello boewie,

I dont think, that you need to install generic C/C++ build tools or the spaces withing the C API path are critical. What i can see in the first place is that there is no reference to the libary folder so the enviromnment can't find the librarys (even if they are standard). 

Maybe this link will help you => http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13482927/cdt-visual-c-support-errors

Hey boewie,

Are you using eclipse?  If not you should use the C/C++ Development Tools for NI Linux Real-Time, Eclipse Edition 2013 here.

Hi!

Thanks for the quick replies!

I do use the NI distribution of Eclipse which comes delovered with the arm cross compiler. To this point, I followed the instructions in

http://www.ni.com/tutorial/14625/de/

and

http://www.ni.com/tutorial/14619/de/

to configure the IDE. Apparently, the code-completion/pre-processor from ecplipse doesn't know the correct paths to the headers. I assume the above document is not complete regarding paths and symbols to be defined in Ecplipse. I will try now to set them up as described here:

http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/tasks/cdt_t_proj_paths.htm

I will provide a status update soon.

Ok, I reached the next stage. This is what I did:

1) I told Ecplipse the correct include paths (the tutorials omits this step). This solved the unresolved inclusions.

2) Also, I installed the GNU Core Utils for Windows (version 5.3.0). the command rm is required for a clean up of the project.

3) I copied the three files cc1.exe, cc1++.exe and collect2.exe from

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Eclipse\toolchain\gcc-4.4-arm\i386\libexec\gcc\arm-none-linux-gnueabi\4.4.1

into

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Eclipse\toolchain\gcc-4.4-arm\i386\arm-none-linux-gnueabi\bin

Now, the assembler seems to have issues:

13:25:09 **** Incremental Build of configuration Debug for project myRIO Example - PWM ****

Assembler messages:

Any Ideas?

Thanks for your help!

My current problem is

arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: selected multilib '.' not installed

For some reason my system won't compile...

can anybody help?

May this will help => http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/

[boewie]

that was it! I installed the MinGW-w64 - for 32 and 64 bit Windows files and it works!

Thank you all!
