Little help to build rrf3

seraser

Hello, I am stuck trying compiling rrf3 using this guide:

https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/blob/dev/BuildInstructions.md

My problem is point 4 and 5 of the guide I dont know how to do.

Thank you.

These are the latest build instructions: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/blob/v3.02-dev/BuildInstructions.md but they don't answer your question because those steps have not been updated.

This guide to modifying the PATH environment variable seems to be comprehensive: https://www.opentechguides.com/how-to/article/windows-10/113/windows-10-set-path.html

The equivalent to the which command in Windows 10 Powershell (version 3 and later) is Get-Command (with -CommandType Application to avoid listing Powershell-internal implementations, and filtered just to return a path if the command is found):

PS C:\Users\oliof> (Get-Command -CommandType Application make).Path
C:\Program Files\GNU ARM Eclipse\Build Tools\2.6-201507152002\bin\make.exe
C:\SysGCC\avr\bin\make.exe
PS C:\Users\oliof> (Get-Command -CommandType Application rm).Path
C:\Program Files\GNU ARM Eclipse\Build Tools\2.6-201507152002\bin\rm.exe
PS C:\Users\oliof>

If you use CMD, the equivalent is where:

PS C:\Users\oliof> cmd
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.630]

C:\Users\oliof>where rm
C:\Program Files\GNU ARM Eclipse\Build Tools\2.6-201507152002\bin\rm.exe

C:\Users\oliof>where make
C:\Program Files\GNU ARM Eclipse\Build Tools\2.6-201507152002\bin\make.exe
C:\SysGCC\avr\bin\make.exe

C:\Users\oliof>

In my case, make is found twice, but the GNU ARM Eclipse one is the first, so it'll be fine.

Thank you for your time and support @oliof very appreciated.

I try with your info do steps 4 and 5 but Im an totally noob and dont work and <Im very frustated.

In pics you can see, maybe best choice is wait to @dc42 for a gcode to set max number of motors to free Ram and can run 12864 mini, maybe months or trash this lcd impossible run today.

oliof

if you run

echo %PATH%

on the command line prompt, what is the result?

It is possible you need to restart your computer for the new system path to apply.

I think path is fine but no rm or make detected.

It looks like you did replace PATH to just contain the GNU Tools binary, instead of adding that to the existing paths. That's why where can't be found.

On my system:

C:\Users\oliof>where where
C:\Windows\System32\where.exe

Make sure your PATH variable includes at least
C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem

Otherwise your windows system will very likely misbehave.

seraser

Thank you @oliof

I think my windows is garbage.

oliof

ok, that looks better. Now try where rmand where make again.

seraser

@oliof same happened no RM results after reboot

oliof

Are you absolutely sure you installed the 2018 Q4 gcc cross-compiler from the ARM developer site as outlined in step #1? I.e., what happens if you run cd C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\8 2018-q4-major\bin in your command line window?

dc42

Your original post indicated that "make" was not found on the path. This file is not part of Eclipse. That's the reason for steps 3, 4 and 5 of https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/blob/dev/BuildInstructions.md. So you can't have executed those 3 steps successfully.

For sure 2018 Q4 installed.

Maybe I need rm.exe and make.exe inside bin folder?

Thank you @oliof

Point 3:Gnu Arm Eclipse is installed fine.

Point 4:Path is done fine.

Point 5:But no rm or make

I cant see rm.exe or make.exe, maybe bad Gnu Arm Eclipse installation? I do it 2 times and same happened.

seraser

@oliof @dc42 thank you very much.

The problem is gnu arm eclipse is installed in program files due is 64 bits and gnu tools arm is in program files x86 due is 32 bits.

So I copy paste bin folder from the first one to the second one and bomm, rm and make is fine and compiled fine CoreNG, yeah.

seraser

Well, compiled fine CoreNg, FreeRTOS, RRFLibraries and RepRapFirmware but I cant see Duetcombined.bin, I think set duetwifi is needed but I dont Know in this moment.

And the path to edit active motors to free ram.

Only a little little help is needed.

Thank you.

dc42

Looks like you have built the legacy Duet configuration, because I see Duet085 in the path in that output window. The build configuration you want will be called DuetNG or Duet 2.

seraser

Compile 2.05 branch fine but 3.2beta3.2 have errors and dont compile.

oliof

Try building RepRapFirmware 3.1.1 first

checkout with the 3.1.1 / 3.1 tags as needed (see BuildInstructions)
clean all projects
make sure you have the right Build Configurations selected
rebuild all projects in the right order

If you managed to build 3.1.1, check out the appropriate latest dev /3.02-dev branches, clean and rebuild all projects again.

seraser

@oliof all your instructions done with 3.1.1. but no luck errors appear with right build configurations checked in buildinstructions and clean projects before compile Reprapfirmware.

dc42

I think you are using the wrong branch of the RRFLibraries project. Use the dev branch for RRF 3.1 and later. Likewise, use the dev branch of FreeRTOS.
