CMake

CMakeLists.txt sample has been provided in this repository.

To build a cmake just do the following:

1. Remove build folder
2. Create build folder
3. cd build
4. cmake ..
5. make

To Run the code in the pico

1. cd build
2. dmesg | tail to figure out where the pico USB Mass Storage device sits at
3. mkdir /mnt/pico/ ( Ignore if already dir already exists)
4. mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt/pico/ to mount to /mnt/pico/
5. cp blink.uf2 /mnt/pico to copy the uf2 file into the Pico. Pico should automatically start the work.
6. umount /mnt/pico/ to safely unmount it.

To show logs(printf) texts in your console

1. In CMakeLists.txt, add the following: (Enable only 1 at a time. (Only one of [usb, uart] can be 1 at a time)). UART is basically just using tx rx:
   

pico_enable_stdio_usb(${PROJECT_NAME} 1)
pico_enable_stdio_uart(${PROJECT_NAME} 0)

2. cmake and make again after clearing build folder ( Need to automate this)
3. Use putty or minicom to communicate with the pico serially. Note: buadrate is 115200 and usually the Serial Device sits at /dev/ttyACM0

TODO:

Figure out how to build for debug from terminal.
