Cannot build for boards that are not in boards-sfe

[fariouche]

Hello,

This is a followup of the platformio discussion so that we do not forget. I had to modify one line in ambiqsuitesdk-sfe.py to make it work:

libs.append(env.BuildLibrary( join("$BUILD_DIR", "Variant"), join(FRAMEWORK_DIR, *framework_build.get("variant"), "bsp"), ))

Look at the added “bsp” at the end. The reason is that my board’s bsp is “variant”: [“boards”, “apollo3_evb”] and inside the boards/apollo3_evb are two folders, bsp and examples… and platformio will try to build the examples here! The folders inside boards-sfe only contains bsp, so the problem is not visible

This modification is backward compatible.

This is the only patch I still need. (I do have one more, to have stack traces when HardFault is called, but I can override the symbol from my application. If you want me to send you this patch too, let me know and I will create an other issue) Thanks

Hi @fariouche,

I have added a new board Ambiq_Apollo3_Blue_EVB and stopped it from compiling the examples directory.

Give it a try and let me know how you go.

Hi @nigelb Thank you, this is even better! It seems like this will enable the possibility to compile apollo4 boards too I have my own json board file. I will adapt it then and let you know

[fariouche]

ok, almost good ;) I had to modify the src filter like this: "variant_lib_src_filter": "+<bsp/*>"

Else, it is not compiling what is inside the bsp folder, missing symbols like am_bsp_low_power_init

[nigelb]

Ok I have added that too.

all good! Thank you very much!
