External IDE

I did the static library as a AVR Cross Target Static Library including all files from Arduino core libraries (not waspmote libraries). I obtained my ArduinoCore library and add it to my new project.

Adding the <\waspmote-ide\hardware\cores\wasp_v019> to Paths and Symbols, I able to navigate through source by "Ctrl+click" function, but when I build it all, "undefined reference to" errors occurred when compiling with Xbee functions in my code. It is not able to reach waspmote libraries, and they are added in Path and Symbols.

Any idea?

I found the problem. You need to add waspmote core libraries in order to make the static library and include it in your projects. The undefined reference was because you the include path have .h and .cpp files, and the cpp files should be added to the project to compile them or compiled in the static library. So the solution was to compile the library with waspmote core libraries (not only the arduino core libraries).

I will write here all steps I followed to configure Eclipse. I also managed to upload the program to the waspmote with AVRDude.

Thanks yoshi!

Hi,

I have saw all docs for using Eclipse. I should want know the command line to use avrdude.

Thanks a lot,
Jb

Hi jbtatou,

if you pulse shift while uploading the code to the board the command line will appear in the message window.

Regards.

Did somebody write a manual about how to configure eclipse to develop applications in Waspmote?

I have tried many things, but I am still not able to compile waspmote projects with eclipse?.

Does somebody know what is the mean of the following error?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
avr-gcc --cref -s -Os -o "Blink_Edu.elf" ./main.o -lcore -lm -Wl,-Map,Blink_Edu.map -L"C:\Users\Eduardo\workspace\Blink_Edu" -mmcu=atmega1281
c:/winavr-20100110/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.3.3/../../../../avr/lib/avr51/crtm1281.o:(.init9+0x0): undefined reference to `main'
make: *** [Blink_Edu.elf] Error 1

**** Build Finished ****
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also wanted to comment I have added to my proyect both the "code.a" library of Waspmote and the link to he last version of the Waspmote API, and in spite of that, eclipse does not recognize the any of the functions.

Any ideas?

I solved the problem. I thought It was not neccesary to write the "main function". Now the question is, How must the "main function" be written?

As suggest manual: http://robertcarlsen.net/2009/10/31/ard ... clipse-989

------------------
int main(void)
{
init();

setup();

for (;;)
loop();

return 0;
}
------------------

Or, as suggest by this one: http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/Eclipse
This one says that "you must never return from main()"

int main(void) {

/* Must call init for arduino to work properly */
init();

/****************************/
/* Add your setup code here */
/****************************/

for (;;) {

/****************************/
/*** write main loop here ***/
/****************************/

} // end for

} // end main

Here's the main from my own Eclipse setup:

Code:

// main program, first execute init and setup, then loop
int main(void) {
   /* Must call init for Waspmote/Arduino to work properly */
   init();
   /* Setup process - run once */
   setup();

   /* main loop - never exit this */
   for (;;) {
      loop();
   } // end for
} // end main

The init function is provided by the Waspmote Library, setup and loop are provided by you.

Thanks Michael!.

I take the advantage of this post to tell everybody I have written
an adapted tutorial to program the Waspmote using Eclipse.

Tutorial: http://www.eduardocc.com/EclipseWaspmot ... orial.html

I hope you find it useful!.

Hi all,

I am particularly interested in using JTAG debugger with waspmote modules.

I know that there are 4 JTAG debugger options that are offered by Atmel. These debuggers are supported by Atmel's AVR Studio development environment. Does anybody know if Waspmote IDE or Eclipse (or any other waspmote compatible IDE you know of) can provide a similar JTAG debugging support at all?

Regards...
