Build issue

[mvturnho]

Hi, I am trying to build the project and seems that when I clone the repo an open the solution file in Visualstudio it fails to build.

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error   C1083   Cannot open include file: 'lvgl/lvgl.h': No such file or directory  LVGL    C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\3rdParty\LVGL\lvgl\src\lv_font\lv_font_roboto_12.c   1   

I clone the project as follows:

$ git clone --recurse-submodules --remote-submodules https://github.com/rohmer/LVGL_UI_Creator.git
Cloning into 'LVGL_UI_Creator'...

what do I need to do to get this up and running in Visual Studio?

Then I tried on a VirtualBox VM Ubuntu system.

git clone https://github.com/rohmer/LVGL_UI_Creator.git

cmake LVGL_UI_Creator/

It seems the build was succesfull, but when I run the binary:

~/git$ ./UICreator/UICreator
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[rohmer]

Ok, I suspect the first (Visual Studio) one is an issue with a non-relative path. Ill take a look at that now.

The second (Linux), I am not sure. I litterally just got it building last night on linux, so again Ill take a look.

[rohmer]

Ok I recreated the issue on Visual Studio. Taking a look. I should have a fix in a few moments.

[rohmer]

Ok, I see what the issue is. I had set all of the variables up in Visual Studio for the X64 environment, not for AnyCPU and x86.

I am removing AnyCPU and setting up x86 now.

[rohmer]

The Visual Studio build is "fixed" in the Dev branch. Please take a look. I removed x86 and AnyCPU as they are unnecessary for a window build.

I will now look at why the CMake is seg faulting on linux

[rohmer]

As far as linux build.

There seems to be something amiss in the SDL build (Which is odd, I am just using the SDL standard cmake). I will investigate.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply. I cloned the project again, and opened the "UICreator.sln" in Visual studio. Then didctrl-shift-B (rebuild solution) it ended with one error.

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error   LNK1104 cannot open file 'C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\3rdParty\freetype-2.10.1\objs\x64\Debug Static\freetype.lib'   UICreator   C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\UICreator\LINK   1   

When I just press the local windows debugger button I get a popup saying:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Unable to start program 'C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\3rdParty\MXML\vcnet\Release\x64\mxml1\mxml1.dll'.

Het systeem kan het opgegeven bestand niet vinden. (system cannot find the file)

[rohmer]

Ok..

The second one is weird. For some reason Visual Studio keeps making the mxml1 library the "Startup Project". I am not sure why.

Se UICreator to the start up project and you should be good on that.

[rohmer]

The linux build, digging deeper. On my machine it was based on libX11 not being installed for the build of SDL. This created a situation where SDL did not have a video device.

I need to figure out how to make sure libX11 is installed before cmake is run.

Either: A) Readme - Tell people to do it or B) (Preferred) - If its not there, build it

[mvturnho]

Hi, I checked for the named libs;

ibx11-6/disco,now 2:1.6.7-1 amd64 [installed]
libx11-data/disco,disco,now 2:1.6.7-1 all [installed,automatic]
libx11-dev/disco,now 2:1.6.7-1 amd64 [installed]
libx11-protocol-perl/disco,disco,now 0.56-7 all [installed,automatic]
libx11-xcb-dev/disco,now 2:1.6.7-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libx11-xcb1/disco,now 2:1.6.7-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]

libx11-dev seems to be available.

I did a full rebuild with cmake and then make still I get the segmentation fault. here is the cmake output;

Hi, I know its late (here). Did another try with Visual studio and it now has one error:

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error   LNK1104 cannot open file 'C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\3rdParty\freetype-2.10.1\objs\x64\Debug Static\freetype.lib'   UICreator   C:\git\LVGL_UI_Creator\UICreator\LINK   1   

I checked, and it seems there is no freetype.lib in that directory, but I do have a freetype.dll file there.

From the project settings for freetype I set configuration type to Static library (.lib) and run again. This time it opened a window with a message that there was no mxml1.dllfile found. So I went to the mxml dir in 3rdParty and copied themxml1.dllfile that was there to the ...\LVGL_UI_Creator\x64\Debug dir. then tried again, and it now works.

Ok, cool on it working. I need to figure out the weirdness of the VS build. Its a tad hokey.

The good news is I got the linux build working now, there was a minor bug that didnt show in VC that does in GCC.

FYI Had similar issues getting this to run (Windows 10 Pro, VS2019 Community. Setting freetype to Static library (.lib) worked, but my install threw an error relating to mxml1.dll although it was present in the debug directory. I noted that all the other dll's were being loaded from Windows\System32 - so I copied the dll to there and it now runs.

Doesn't do much yet though and buggy ;)

Looking forward to enhancements so I can try it for real - will keep an eye out for updates and will certainly make use of it for an actual design if I possibly can.

[rohmer]

Well that is the plan, yes there are a few bugs sadly :(

[TimJTi]

Don't get me wrong - I think it could prove really useful and you've obviously put in a lot of work: I'm impressed :) But anything I tried didn't work (e.g. backspace in the simulator window, to change the resolution did nothing; or trying things reported lvgl NULL pointer errors.) I have probably not set something up right so I'll persevere and if I end up sure that there's a bug rather than finger trouble I'll raise a new issue (assuming that's what you'd prefer).

[rohmer]

Oh, I am 1000% sure there are bugs. Right now I am focused on getting it coded. There is a huge amount of work to be done. Right now I have just gotten the creators thru button map done :(.

[rohmer]

Also, making it easier to simply download and build is definitely on my radar.

I have a Jenkins build running on a server here in my house, and it is bouncing off a pi as well for Linux variants
