Broken eagle files for Arduino Micro and Nano

[michaellass]

The eagle files linked on https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardMicro are broken in several ways.

1. The line <schematic xreflabel="Э^L^F" xrefpart="/%S.%C%R"> in Arduino_Micro_Rev03j.sch makes eagle output an error, unable to open the file.
2. After removing the broken attributes from this XML entry, cross referencing is broken as U2 comes from different libraries in board and schematic files.

A first-aid patch is attached but I'm not sure if these are the only issues in these files.

Turns out Arduino Nano's eagle file is also broken. Anyone know how to patch these two?

[agdl]

Fixed both of them. Thank you

[michaellass]

Seems like the fixed files haven't made it to the website, yet. Could you have a look again, please?

[KateElizabeth112]

I'm having a problem with the Arduino Nano Eagle file that's currently on the website. Any chance you could let me know how you fixed it?

[matthijskooijman]

@agdl, could you verify the fix?

[alexanderturner]

Not working for me - seeing Nano files broken as of today.

Files are opening in Eagle 6 and Eagle 7 but seem to fail on Eagle 8.

[CLECMan]

Element14 has same error. I'm using Eagle 8 too. Only on the schematic, the board file opens fine.

Error:

line 74, column 25: Unexpected ''.

"schematic xreflabel="Э�" xrefpart="">"

Any update on this? I'm trying to open the micro schematic in Eagle 8.3.2 and it comes up with the same error caused by that line.

[winsonwq]

not sure if someone is working this ... any update?

[agdl]

@winsonwq should be fixed. If so close the issue please

[michaellass]

Well, the files for the Micro available under https://content.arduino.cc/assets/arduino-micro-reference.zip still show the same error as when I originally reported this issue. The link to download eagle files for the Nano does not work at all anymore: https://store.arduino.cc/arduino-nano.

Not my definition of a fix….

[agdl]

The micro files works fine. Clear your cache. Same for nano

[michaellass]

The dowload link for the nano files works again. Also, the cross referencing issue is indeed fixed. But still, Eagle 8 denies to open the schematic files with the following error:

line 173, column 25: Unexpected ''.

Still, this is easilly fixable by removing the following attribute from the <schematic> element:

xreflabel="Ð<U+00AD>^L^F"

Just to make sure, I have the most recent version, here are all checksums:

[agdl]

@michaellass we use eagle version 7 sorry for this. We are not planning to support eagle 8 at the moment

[michaellass]

Alright, then I guess this can be closed. Thanks for fixing the cross-ref issue!

[agdl]

@michaellass thank you for pointing this out!

[ElectricRCAircraftGuy]

Sorry for the side question, but:

@michaellass where did you learn about the trick deleting the xreflabel= reference from the <schematic> element to fix the file? I just had to do this for a personal file made in Eagle v7.7 in order to open it up in v8.5.1, but I don't see this documented anywhere by Eagle. My error while trying to open the file was:

Error:

line 148, column 24: Unexpected ''.    

My xreflabel I deleted at line 148 looked like this: <schematic xreflabel="?�" xrefpart="/%S.%C%R">

[alexanderturner]

Hey @michaellass, @ElectricRCAircraftGuy

I had this exact same issue and it appears that it wasn't the xreflabel tag rather the incompatible character in Ð. I substituted this for a D which allows me to open the file in v8.5.1.

Nice find. I went back and deleted just that one bad character (shown above as the black diamond with a question mark in it) [if I remember correctly--I did it months ago--right after you made your comment] and now mine works too.

Fixed.
