RFDuino library expects g++ compiler, which is no longer present #1

Closed chipaudette closed 9 years ago

chipaudette commented 9 years ago

The RFDuino library, via its "platform.txt" configuration file, expects there to be a g++ compiler. In Arduino 1.5.7 and 1.5.8 for Windows (maybe also other platforms, and maybe also earlier versions), the g++ compiler is no longer present. So, the code won't compile.

A workaround has been found using the gcc compiler through the Arduino toolchain (presumably in place of the g++ compiler). See:

http://openbci.com/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/259/missing-compiler-when-re-programming-the-rfduinos-dongle-and-openbci-device#latest

Can this be fixed so that it works without users having to edit any files?

Changed the platform.txt file so that it points to the right compiler path. Also verified that this will work on Mac and Windows
