very good your docs are always neat. 

when you get time maybe you would do a user guide for the visual studio plugin Smiley

I think you have to decide who you are targeting. xcode seemed like the easy solution for mac users. 

If netbeans is easy then it sounds like a good move. One day apple might realise that being "closed" is not so good Smiley

Visual Micro target audience is first time users and windows/visual studio users.

It seems clear that more than one solution is required. If you do netbeans it should work well for linux and mac users.

I also believe that arduino will produce a new ide soon. I would think that the delay with ARM is due to creating a new ide because maple didn't find ARM so difficult.

I notice that the owners of arduino have recently produced some xbee sotware using the qt framework. I wouldn't be surprised if they create an ide using qt.

Very good.

The new debug stuff in visual micro uses c++ injection. If we can work a way for make files to provide this feature then we have a complete winner!

I look forward to your valuable feedback and ideas when the debug tools are released for visual studio.

yes that would be good. let's have an xml file that allows make files to be registered with nice names. I can add an interface to allow new ones to be added by users but initially we could just have a pre-defined list. can you try thyem out in vs?

I'm working on the next release of embedXcode. I plan to integrate an automatic documenting feature. 

After having reviewed HeaderDoc, doxygen and appledoc, I picked doxygen. 

Integration with Xcode is the main challenge. The idea is to select a specific target to build the documentation, obtain a PDF and integrate a codeset Xcode could use. 

There's still a lot of work to do. 

Stay tuned  Wink

New version 14 of embedXcode brings a significant improvement on the size of the HEX and BIN files over the 

embedXcode • Jun 25, 2012 release 14 • HEX and BIN files size optimisation

Sizes are now close to and even better than those obtained with the corresponding IDEs. 



All measures are in bytes.

Other Boards Platforms?
Reply #10 - Jan 15th, 2012 at 5:08pm

Hi,

First of all, congratulations for this nice and working Arduino plug-in for a standard IDE. I haven't been lucky with other plug-ins for Eclipse, NetBeans, ...

Now, an interesting enhancement would be including other platforms. For example, the Microchip PIC32 based chipKIT UNO32 brings 32-bits at 80 MHz and has a Processing-based IDE called MPIDE —for multiple platform IDE— which handles both AVR / Arduino and Microchip / chipKIT platforms / boards. 

Because I own a chipKIT UNO32, I no longer use the Arduino IDE because MPIDE can manage both.



C / C++ language is the same, expect the tool-chains, avr- for Arduino, pic32- for chipKIT.

Here's a comparison between both IDEs, including build and upload and directories and files. 

Best regards,

that's great thanks. i did start the work but then arduino 1.0 was announced and chipkit said they put their dev on hold until it was released. 1.0 includes a variants file, it's the only major change from a compiler perspective.

So now we have 1.0 the chipkit stuff should be ready to look at. however i am waiting for arduino arm to see if that includes any common changes that can be completed in one go

I found your makefiles when searching the web. You really know your stuff!! 

Your makefile system has to be the neatest and most flexible arduino compiler on the planet!

1)
Now that vm has the ability to store project properties it would be useful to allow users to override the base compiler settings on a project by project basis. Also t optionally provide outputs for avr sim + symbols etc. as per your make file examples.

I would appreciate hearing what project options you think others will find useful so enable or change the compiler functionality.

2)
On another note, the next version of vm implements your suggestion of including arduino help and examples from a while back. Thanks for the suggestion! 

The new help/examples system has been implemented in an "explorer" type window view, filtered by platform. This is the first step towards your other suggestion of supporting additional platforms such as chipKit Smiley

From my point of view, the most wanted option is to use the same environment to compile for any Arduino-based Wiring-derived platform/board.

My set of makefiles is highly flexible and handles Arduino 23 and 1.0, chipKIT MPIDE, Wiring, LeafLabs Maple and Texas Instrument LaunchPad MSP430. 

So the extra-work to allow Visual Micros supporting all those platforms/boards shouldn't be that important. 

Other two important options I use often include 
  • setting the launch the console automatically after uploading, 
  • and defining the default sketchbook directory —most often, to ignore the Libraries inside.

That's really great! 

I tried to compile the index of the HTML files into a docset —the help bundle format on OS X— but didn't manage to get it done.

Good idea about the option to open the serial. The debug tool does it but it makes sense for std projects to be able to do it.

2)
Yes I am going to add the default sketchbook folder property to vm to avoid the need to set in the arduino ide.

I think it's best to write the change back to the arduino ide preferences in an attempt to avoid user confusion and questions such as"Why doesn't my sketch compile in vm but it does in arduino?"

Makefiles/Multi-platform

3) It might be possible to use the makfile in visual studio. I thought it might be difficult with the debug stuff but it turned out that the debug system just uses the standard arduino compile. 

When we first started discussing a multi platform make file I mentioned the need for a common format to register new platforms. This will provide the ability for users to add their own platforms to the standard list. There is no reason why a makefile is not automatically generated from an xml based platform list.

So, for me, the first job is for us to agree a standard platforms reg file, then it's a simple bit of c# for me and/or makefile magic for you to convert the xml (or ano format) into makefiles. 

Or we just write out a small platform sepcific makefile (like your first level makefiles) for each registered platform. I guess we could read the makefile back into some sort of configuration dialog for users, allowing the platform to be maintained?

Please find the new release of embedXcode

Sep 01, 2012 • Support for Arduino Leonardo

As the Arduino Leonardo requires a specific reset procedure due to its ATmega32U4, I had to develop a reset script in Python. 

Also included in this release, support for Xcode 4.4.1 and for newly released Energia 0101E0008 and a fix for GraphWiz 2.28 crashing on Mountain Lion.

As always, find documentation and download at http://embedXcode.weebly.com

As Arduino 1.0 is now stabilised and wide-spread, should embedXcode continue to support Arduino 23?

Answer the poll Smiley

Please note this is not going to affect other platforms, like chipKIT MPIDE which is still based on Arduino 23 and continues to be supported as it. 

Thank you for your input. The poll opens for one week.

New release 16 of embedXcode supports the FraunchPad MSP430FR5739.

embedXcode • Sep 25, 2012 release 16 • Support for FraunchPad

The Document target now builds a PDF file along with HTML and docset files.

Documentation is here and download there.

Obsolescence Notice
The following features are planned to become obsolete in a future release:
  • Support for Arduino 0023 is planned to be be discontinued.
  • The code for multiple platforms is managed in two ways: the MCU variables like __AVR_ATmega328P__ and the IDE variables like ARDUINO=101. The MCU variables are going to be suspended in favour the IDE variables. This enables a more compact code and an easier maintenance.

Oct 21, 2012 • Selection of pde, ino or cpp extension for the sketch

When creating a new project, select the extension on the drop-down list:
• Choose pde for Arduino 0023, chipKIT MPIDE, Wiring and Leaflabs Maple,
• Choose ino for Arduino 1.0 and Energia,
• Choose cpp optionally for a standard C++ file.

Using a pde or ino extension allows to edit the sketch with the standard IDEs of the boards.

I'm implementing support for Due on embedXcode. 

Building and linking work fine.

Unfortunately, I can't proceed with the uploading tests as I don't own an Arduino Due board.

Thanks to the previous implementations for ARM Cortex M3-based Leaflabs Maple and the SAM-based Arduino Due, embedXcode now supports the StellarPad featuring a ARM Cortex-M4F Stellaris LM4F120H5QR.

I've tested successfully building, linking and uploading. 

I'm waiting for the official Energia update with Stellaris support before releasing embedXcode version 18.

Stay tuned  Smiley

Most of the manufacturers have sent me boards so I could proceed with the tests and add support on embedXcode. 

Sometimes, building and linking go well but the resulting executable (HEX or BIN) doesn't run. Also, uploading always carries surprises!

On my wish-list: Arduino Due, Teensy 3.0, chipKIT uC32.

The maintenance of the embedXcode template is really difficult due to Apple secrecy around and lack of documentation on Xcode.

So I'm considering switching from Xcode to another IDE.

Here's an open letter to Apple Xcode team. Feel free to send it to members of the Apple Xcode team you know.

Thank you for your help Smiley


Quote:
Dear Xcode Team,

Xcode offers superior features and ergonomics compared with other IDEs running on OS X. 
Unfortunately, its restricted documentation prevents from using many of its features.

I'm using Xcode as a development tool for embedded computing platforms. 
As at today, the embedXcode template supports Arduino, Diligent chipKIT with MPIDE, Texas Instruments' Launchpad with Energia, Leaflab Maple, Teensy, Wiring, and has received a warm welcome from the embedded computing community. 

The issues I'm currently facing are mostly linked to the lack of available documentation.
The books available on Xcode focus on how to use the tool, not on how to customise it. Similarly, Apple doesn't provide any clues about its inner structure. 
For example, keywords used by the templates are not documented. Neither is using other tool-chains, albeit the specific Toolchains folder.

Is Xcode solely limited OS X and iOS development?
By just releasing some documentation on Xcode inner organisation and customisation, Apple can easily make Xcode the best choice for developers.

Otherwise, I'd have no option but to switch to another IDE and to abandon OS X.

Looking forward to hearing from you, 
Best regards,

I'm presently working on extending the automatic project configuration to include all the manual procedures, except for adding the user's libraries.



The major challenge is to understand how Xcode stores and structures the configuration of a project.

Stay tuned Smiley

Please find a new release of embedXcode.

  • embedXcode • May 18, 2015 release 289 • Added support for Teensy LC and updated support for 1.6.1 or 1.7 Arduino IDE plug-ins
  • embedXcode+ • May 18, 2015 release 289 • Added support for Teensy LC and updated support for 1.6.1 or 1.7 Arduino IDE plug-ins


Release 2.8.9 adds support for the Teensy LC board. The Teensy 3.0 and 3.1 are very popular among the embedXcode users and the Teensy LC is a welcomed addition. 

Release 2.8.9 also updates support for the plug-ins running on Arduino 1.6.1 or 1.7.x, including Adafruit, Cosa, LightBlue, panStamp, RedBearLab, RFduino, Teensy. 

Finally, release 2.8.9 brings support for Particule, the new name of Spark. I'm still waiting for the Photon so I can add support for it.
