What do we do here?

rei-vilo commented 11 years ago

The tool chain is on a separate repository: https://github.com/energia/energia_tools

Please keep in mind Energia for StellarPad is still in beta.

RickKimball commented 11 years ago

It isn't even in beta, it is still being developed. There are many things that aren't finished or tested.

Reason for not including toolchain binaries is that the binaries do not need to be under SCM and it makes the repository unnecessarily large. The release however will of course include the toolchain. You can get the toolchain from the location above and copy it into the /dist/ and rename it to lm4f_tools.zip The build script will take care of the rest.

I have installed this toolchain: https://github.com/jsnyder/arm-eabi-toolchain/. And then symlinked everything from $HOME/arm-cs-tools/bin/ into the Energia.app/Contents/Resources/Java/hardware/tools/lm4f/bin (on mac).

@vsviridov did you find issues with the binary toolchain release here?: https://github.com/energia/energia_tools

vsviridov commented 11 years ago

@robertinant I was just unaware of the other repo. When it failed to compile I got that other one going. Not sure if that will cause issues. (Right now examples involving serial port do not compile. Something to do with mixing soft and hard floating point)
