generating binary of DuetWifiSocketServer don't work

[eBerlin]

hello,

eclipse cant generate the .bin file, and the error message says: that the project cant find the esptool.exe and eboot.elf.
But the given paths are correct.

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/make --no-print-directory post-build

I don't know much about Macs, but is a .exe file correct for running under mac OSX?

[eBerlin]

no it isnt correct, i have changed the path to the tool, thanks ..!

now i'am getting this error :

@eberlin, what happens if you run that command manually?

[eBerlin]

do you mean this command ?:

"/Users/xxx/Documents/Arduino/hardware/esp8266com/esp8266/tools/macosx/esptool" -eo "/Users/xxx/Documents/ArduinoFull/bootloaders/eboot/eboot.elf" -bo "/Eclipse/Firmware/DuetWiFiSocketServer/Release/DuetWiFiServer.bin" -bm dio -bf 40 -bz 4M -bs .text -bp 4096 -ec -eo "/Eclipse/Firmware/DuetWiFiSocketServer/Release/DuetWiFiSocketServer.elf" -bs .irom0.text -bs .text -bs .data -bs .rodata -bc -ec

in the terminal at the workspace, i guess ?

[eBerlin]

when i run this command manually, im getting no error in the terminal.
but the generated .bin file is only 1 KB large.

when i built the project in eclipse i get the this message :

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/make --no-print-directory post-build

what does the error 255 mean ?

[dc42]

@eberlin said in generating binary of DuetWifiSocketServer don't work:

what does the error 255 mean ?

I'm sorry, I don't know.

[eBerlin]

any idea how i generate the right .bin file ?

i got three errors in my SocketServer.cpp , but i didnt changed the method. -->

[dc42]

You can ignore the "Invalid arguments" errors shown by Eclipse, that's a bug in the code analysis function of Eclipse. it looks like the compile step succeeded.

You could try switching to the internal building instead of using the external make program - perhaps it will give you a better error message.

09:41:46 Build Finished (took 2s.857ms)

my .bin file did'nt updated after that

[dc42]

Looks like the internal builder didn't run the post-build step. I suggest you find an Eclipse support forum and seek help there.

However, if you can't get the esptool command in the post-build step to work when you run it manually, that suggests that the command may not be in the correct format for esptool on a mac.

[eBerlin]

ok, i will do that.

but it makes sense, that the DuetWiFiSocketServer.elf - file can be build and the DuetWiFiSocketServer.bin file can't ..?

[dc42]

@eberlin said in generating binary of DuetWifiSocketServer don't work:

It's the ESPTOOL step that converts the .elf file to the .bin file.

[eBerlin]

hello,
i tried some esptool commands manually and everythink works. but i used a different command and got 2 bin files at the end.

i think the command in eclipse is fine and the tool works also. the .bin file is just to small, maybe empty after using the esptool in eclipse.

i want to test some function in the ServerSocket.cpp. But at first i need to built the .bin successfully.
the first steps was to build LwipEsp8266 and second the CoreEsp8266. Did i forget any project ?

the paths to the tools seems to be correct..

[eBerlin]

a friend build also the duetWifiServer on his windows pc and has the same problem . his generated .bin file have 2KB ...

[eBerlin]

is the esptool command right, linke this ?:

maybe the esptool command is wrong...

[dc42]

Perhaps you are using a different version of esptool from me and the command line format has changed. What version do you have?

[eBerlin]

this is my version:
esptool v0.4.3 - (c) 2014 Ch. Klippel ck@atelier-klippel.de

[eBerlin]

you are using version 0.4.12.
i updated to this version and im getting now a perfect .bin-File
