Building on Windows 7

This page contains some some notes that Phill Harvey Smith (prime) posted on Stardot covering building on Windows 7: https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=9655&start=570#p186385

You will need::

• Cygwin installed and working.
• The Atmel AVR 8 command line gcc compiler available at : http://www.atmel.com/tools/atmelavrtoolchainforwindows.aspx
• Srecord for windows available at : https://sourceforge.net/projects/srecord/files/
• The windows version of Xilinx ISE 14.7 WebPack installed and licensed, pretty much the same procedure as for Linux.

You'll need to extract the AVR command line tools to a folder and add it's 'bin' directory to your windows search path. Likewise you'll need to extract srecord to a directory and add it's directory to your windows search path (you could drop it in the AVR compiler's bin folder).

Open up a cygwin window and clone the repository with:

git clone https://github.com/hoglet67/AtomBusMon.git

You'll need to edit Makefile.inc in target/common and make the following changes:

1. Change XILINX to point to the cygwin path of your webpack installation e.g. :

XILINX := /cygdrive/c/Xilinx/14.7

2. Change PATH to point include the binary executable directory of the ISE tools:

PATH := $(PATH):${XILINX}/ISE_DS/ISE/bin/nt64

3. Change the default shell to bash:

SHELL := /bin/bash

Save the makefile, then change into the target directory of the version you want to compile and then do a make clobber / make to build.
