installation instuctions outdated

[just-ole]

I stumbled upon this repo while trying to get lufa working on a leonardo board and decided to give it a shot.

with the 1.6.12 version of arduino studio, the files mentioned in the installation section changed:

HID.cpp doesn't exist anymore the line numbers in Arduino.h and main.cpp are off the lines meant for main.cpp are already there Platform.h doesn't exist anymore

I'm not sure what route I'll go from here to get lufa working, if it is relevant to this repo, there will be a pull request, if you or anyone else knows how to do it now before that that'd be even better.

the main idea is to disable USB specific code in the core, to avoid LUFA and Arduino USB stuff messing each others.

just look around the source files, and comment out according lines, you're good to go.

If some stumbles upon this: I got it working in 1.8.2 with latest LUFA. As @Palatis said, you simply have to remove everything that is related to USB from the files in the core directory.

• Delete all files from 4. to 9. (HID.cpp won't exist, so you don't have to delete it)
• The 'changes' in 11. mean, that you have to delete those lines. The numbers are off, but you can find the lines by searching for "USB".
• Paltform.h does not exist anymore, so you don't have to change anything there

Additional steps, i did to get it working:

• I deleted the files "PluggableUSB.cpp" and "PluggableUSB.h"
• Sketchbook/libraries/LUFA/LUFA.h includes Platform.h which doesn't exist, so the include has to be removed
• you will need to add an include of <Arduino.h> to Sketchbook/libraries/LUFA/LUFA.h or some scripts will complain that they can't find the "delay"-funcion

For clarification, Lufa.h should look like this when you are done:

#ifndef __LUFA_H__
#define __LUFA_H__
/*
 * This file is here only because Arduino wants it...
 */
//#include <Platform.h>
#define F_USB F_CPU
#include <Arduino.h>
#include <LUFA/Drivers/USB/USB.h>
#endif

That's all to get it working. The example is outdated as well, but the only change you have to do is: in Descriptors.c, replace all VERSION_BCD(01.10) with VERSION_BCD(1,1,0) and VERSION_BCD(00.01)with VERSION_BCD(0,0,1)

After this, i successfully uploaded the example to my Arduino Micro 👍

Thanks for the details, @Dakor91, I shifted onto other stuff and didn't really visit this repo for a long time. However I might come back to this one since I recently have another (paid) project involving a small USB device.

Happy Arduinoing! 👍

btw, I do accept PR :-D

I currently don't have much time, so I didn't want to create one. But I found a few spare minutes (procrastination at its best) 😀 https://github.com/Palatis/Arduino-Lufa/pull/2
