Everything Else » Atmel Toolchain??
January 24, 2013 by Ralphxyz |
Windows 8 x64 I have this entry in my Path:
But I cannot find the AVR Tools\AVR Toolchain\bin folders. Paul mentioned that Atmel has a new Toolchain. I have gcc version 4.3.2 (WinAVR 20090313) AVR-GCC on my command line is that the newest? I can run AVR-GCC from the command line but I am having problems doing a Build in Code:Blocks. Code::Blocks uses C:WinAVR-20090313. Ralph |

I don't see why you couldn't run any version of the tools you wanted with C:B and the version you mention from 2009 is pretty old. I don't know the current version of WinAVR but it is surely 2012 something and you can find it on the ATmel web site. On Ubuntu I have avr-gcc 4.6.2 and toolchain 3.4.1. |

Ralph, I installed Atmel Studio 6 and changed the path to point to it's version of the toolchain. I also copied avrdude.exe and avrdude.conf to that folder since it was in the same folder with the WINAVR installation. My avr-gcc version is: avr-gcc (AVR_8_bit_GNU_Toolchain_3.4.1_830) 4.6.2 make version: GNU Make 3.81 and avrdude version: avrdude version 5.11 The path to the avr-gcc toolchain in the Windows Atmel Studio 6 install on my system is: C:\Program Files\Atmel\Atmel Studio 6.0\extensions\Atmel\AVRGCC\3.4.1.95\AVRToolchain\bin I don't know if this helps out or not, but I thought I'd share.

Rick what does your path look like? I am having problems with Atmel Studio 6 and Code:Blocks. Are you running Windows 8 or Windows 7 (x64)? I am running Windows 8 x64. There is probable no advantage to your running Atmel Studio as your programmer would not be recognized right? Ralph |

The path I changed is in my prior post. I'm running Windows 8 32 bit. I haven't taken the time to go through it but I believe I read somewhere that Vr. 6 let's you use custom make files. Some day I'll look into that. For now, I was primarily interested in getting the new tool chain and I knew the install would give me that. |

Rick, are you using:
For your Command line compiler? Ralph |
January 26, 2013 by Rick_S |
No, That's in my path ( environment variable ). If you type path at the command prompt, it will show your paths. |

Reading again this morning, I may have misunderstood your question. If you were asking me if that's the compiler I'm using to compile with via the normal NK method, then yes. I just changed my environment variable for the path to point to that version instead of the version in the WINAVR install. I also copied avrdude.exe and arduino.conf from a current arduino compile to get the latest version of it into that folder. I then test compiled a couple of programs to make sure everything was still working and all seemed to work as expected. Rick |

Oh, now that's interesting, makes sence that one could do it just hadn't thought of it. Ralph |
