Compilation issues for STM32F108C8 on ArduinoIDE

[TTN-]

1. I installed the libraries by copying them into user\Documents\Arduino\libraries

2. installed STM32DUINO library as per here https://github.com/stm32duino/wiki/wiki/Getting-Started

3. set my configuration in config.h as required, servo uS, no compass, bluepill STM32F103C8 etc..

4. set arduino ide board type:

5. get "no board defined" error: AntTrack.ino:126: config.h:210:4: error: #error "No board type defined!" (Was I supposed to declare that or does the IDE do that bit?)

6. manually add #define __BluePill_F103C8__ in config.h line 178

7. error during compilation:

Has anyone seen this before?

Sorry for the slow response. I've been away for Christmas.

May I suggest you follow these instructions for now, with this link in Preference:

"http://dan.drown.org/stm32duino/package_STM32duino_index.json"

What's happening here is that my auto board identification code looks for the "__BluePill_F103C8__" or "MCU_STM32F103RB" macro, and the newer development environment is using a different identifier.

#elif defined (__BluePill_F103C8__) ||  defined (MCU_STM32F103RB)
  #define Target_Board   1      // Blue Pill STM32F103C8  
  #define STM32F103C8

Alternatively, temporarily insert

#define STM32F103C8

in place of

#error "No board type defined!"

Thanks Eric. I've installed that and set the board accordingly.

Btw also:

#include <ardupilotmega/mavlink.h>
#include <ardupilotmega/ardupilotmega.h>

on line 128 at AntTracker.ino isn't finding the files so I've just set them manually, forgot to mention that earlier.

I'm getting a few compiler issues related to those includes now, so I might be including the wrong files. I manually set them to:

#include "D:\NetworkDrive\Documents\Arduino\libraries\GCS_MAVLink\include\mavlink\v2.0\ardupilotmega\mavlink.h"
#include "D:\NetworkDrive\Documents\Arduino\libraries\GCS_MAVLink\include\mavlink\v2.0\ardupilotmega\ardupilotmega.h"

Are these the files that are intended to be included here?

Do I copy all the library files to User/Document/Arduino/libraries ?

[TTN-]

I've managed to get it to compile by doing the following: Move all arduino libraries to somewhere else temporarily so we don't get conflicts

in Documents/Arduino/libraries/ have these:

TinyGPSPLUS/TinyGPS++.cpp
TinyGPSPLUS/TinyGPS++.h

And copy everything from PixhawkArduinoMAVLink\src\ to a folder in your library, give it a name, in my case I just put it in a folder called mavlink2

Now compiles :)

Good to hear.

Regarding Ardupilot libraries, you will find a link to the latest libs in the tracker library folder.

APM libs may be found here
