AT91SAM7xek Eclipse & ucos

Started by boerrick March 6, 2007
Hello Hello,

I'm testing with the AT91SAM7xek evaluation kit. My final object
will be communicating via Ethernet using TCP/IP.

My first projects I made in IAR. Now I reached the 32kb compiler
code limitation. Therefore I started with Eclipse. I can compile
code, when I make the makefile myself. Now I'm trying to generate
Eclipse my makefile. Therefore I have installed the plugin ARM
Realview Compiler. When I like to make a project, I get the
following in my console:
make -k pre-build main-build
make -v
GNU Make 3.80

echo Generated dependency file main.d
/bin/sh: armcc: command not found

What goes wrong? Proparably armcc is not found, how can I solve this?
Maybe there is a better plugin for generating a makefile for the
at91sam7x256?

As I told, my final result is communication over Ethernet using
TCP/IP. The TCP/IP stack I don't like to write by my own, therefore
I like to use usos with the tcp/ip. Has anybody experience with
this??

Make sure the path the the compiler is included in the PATH environment.

Notepad?

A free real time kernel for 8, 16 and 32bit systems.

+ http://www.SafeRTOS.com
An IEC 61508 compliant real time kernel for safety related systems.
look at your system path. be sure to have a good path to the armcc.

For tcp/ip you can use the lwip. look at the freertos, they have a sample
that work with gcc on the sam7x-ek board. this is probably a good starting
point. I will have to do it in a day or two. I will try to start from there
also.

Are you sure armcc is in your path? when you invoke armcc from command
line you will get the same error
also. I suggest you using gcc with Eclipse. It can be a quite powerful
combination. If you are using Windows, you
can go for winarm or gnuarm toolchain distros.

Eclipse can generate makefile for you without using external plugin. did
you try managed C project option while creating
new project?

FreeRTOS is an excellent alternative to ecos. It is easy to get started
with. It also has a nice ready-to-use project for
SAM7X including the TCP/IP stack(i.e. using lwIP).

Hi,

there is a big difference between arm-elf-gcc (the Gnu compiler for
ARM) and armcc, which is ARM's own compiler. Do you own a license to
Realview armcc ? Otherwise, you may need to alter the compiler setting
in eclipse.

A part of my path is at the moment:
c:\cygwin\bin;C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin;c:\program
files\gnuarm\bin;C:\MinGW\bin;

What exactly must I add to my path?

Yes I am using Windows, and I have gnuarm, as you can see in my path
above.

I have tried it, I can choose for Executable (GNU for Windows).
The problem is, my generated file is .exe and I like a file .bin
I can make my makefile myself, here a example:

NAME = Makefile AT91SAM7x-EK

CC = arm-elf-gcc
LD = arm-elf-ld -v
AR = arm-elf-ar
AS = arm-elf-as
CP = arm-elf-objcopy
OD = arm-elf-objdump

CFLAGS = -I./ -c -fno-common -O0 -g
AFLAGS = -ahls -mapcs-32 -o crt.o
LFLAGS = -Map main.map -TLinkerScript.cmd
CPFLAGS = --output-target=binary

ODFLAGS = -x --syms

all: test

clean:
-rm crt.lst main.lst crt.o main.o lowlevelinit.o usart.o
main.out main.bin main.hex main.map main.dmp

test: main.out
@ echo "...copying"
$(CP) $(CPFLAGS) main.out main.bin
$(OD) $(ODFLAGS) main.out > main.dmp

main.out: crt.o main.o lowlevelinit.o LinkerScript.cmd usart.o
@ echo "..linking"
$(LD) $(LFLAGS) -o main.out crt.o main.o lowlevelinit.o
usart.o

crt.o: crt.s
@ echo ".assembling"
$(AS) $(AFLAGS) crt.s > crt.lst

main.o: sources/main.c
@ echo ".compiling"
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) sources/main.c

lowlevelinit.o: sources/lowlevelinit.c
@ echo ".compiling"
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) sources/lowlevelinit.c

usart.o: sources/usart.c
@ echo ".compiling"
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) sources/usart.c
Now I like eclipse generating my makefile because of making a lot of
source files, and I don't like to make it my own. If there is no
other way, i have to do it myself.

Your path is correct if your intention is to use gcc(gnu arm actually)
But what is your output says is you are trying to you use
armcc(Realview) which is not in your path. I think you should correct
the compiler option in your makefile.

But your make calls armcc which is not definetely gnuarm!

This is not the one you are using I guess. The first post you send
references armcc compiler which is not the one in this makefile.
