Docker build: Some errors on Windows #45

Open Taxtra opened 12 months ago

Taxtra commented 12 months ago

Hi, There are a few errors that occur when trying to build the firmware via docker on Windows. Maybe you can add these information to the documentation:

On Windows, the path must be specified directly, so the $(pwd) command wont work: docker run --rm -it -v PATH_TO_FILE:/usr/local/src/RS41ng rs41ng_compiler should be the correct one

Now you will probably get an error like this: line 1: $':\r': command not found

This is because Windows creates new lines via unix and not via dos like Linux.

This problem can be easily solved on Windows using Notepad++:

At first open Notepad++

**1. menu: Search -> Find in Files...

  1. directory = set to your RS41ng source directory
  2. find what = \r\n
  3. replace with = \n
  4. search mode = extended
  5. press "Replace in Files** More information on how to convert the files to unix

This should solve the problem. Please note that you may have to rebuild the Docker image.

@Taxtra Are you using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to compile this and do you use the bash shell? Those are the ones supported by the build process here...
