This should be resolved in the latest .11 release. Visual Micro should have been escaping the entire build command but it previously only escpaed quoted strings.

This toolchain appears to be the first to need this change however I think going forward it is important.

That's a userful toolchain. It objects to short paths and we only switch to them automatically for certain very old cores. 

The tool chain you are using can't handle short paths but that's okay because it does correctly specify quotes around file paths.

There is a new 22.11.28.12 release in this forum. We have updated our 8dot3 logic so that it must now  be forced on for the older toolchains (upload.8dot3=true). 

This is the right solution, it no longer makes sense to force 8dot3 files names.

Thanks for the posts

Please open a command prompt and run this command and confirm it works without error

java -jar 2.1/XMCFlasher.jar" -p m2GO\Release/XMC_test.ino.hex" -device "XMC4200-256"

pause
 

Hmm, yes we have java installed and it finds it okay. We don't get the issue.

For Visual Micro, this makes the verbose upload output (file>preferences) in the Arduino IDE look the same.

HOWEVER, you cmd test you made seemed to indicate that the uload only works for you if \\ double back slashes are used?

So I am starting to wonder if the upload is happening correctly but the other options you have enabled to export the compiled binary or copy to intermediate are showing an error because a binary is not created by this tool chain.

Can you please switch off Compiler > "Export Binary" and "Copy to Intermediate". There are some errors relating to the export earlier in the output. So it would be cleaner to switch them off, some boards dont support the feature.

Please switch them off and let us see another output thanks

If possible please also email the name that you have blanked out in the output or something very similar. 

Also, please show what you have in this file \\mac\Home\Documents\Arduino\XMC_test\board.txt

Are you running on windows pc or mac/arm?

Thanks

Thanks for the update.

There are potentially multiple points this can be failing at, and to allow us to replicate the issues fully, could you send us your username (in a PM or an email with a link to this thread)?

Could you also confirm which Language you have set for Non-Unicode Programs (in Windows Settings > Time & Language > Language > Administrative language settings > Administrative Tab)?

Thanks for the addiitonal information.

Can you confirm your Arduino IDE is installed in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino"?

Can you also enable the Arduino IDE > Preferences > Show Verbose Output > Build AND Upload, and perform the build and upload and attach the output from the Arduino IDE?

Brilliant, thankyou for the logs and bearing with us on this.

We believe we have identified the last issue involved in the uploading problem, and we will release a fixed version in the next day or so, and update this thread when it is available.

Sorry we forgot to update this thread to say the fix has been released. In Vs2022 you can update via Extensions>Extension Manager > Updates.

Its a point of note for people who want to run the Infineon XMC tools alongside Arduino 2.0. You are not currently doing that but some info worth keeping in mind for later...

The issue related to running the auto discovered java that is installed with the arduino ide 1x. We had been testing with arduino 2 that requires java to be installed independantly. In that case it worked fine for us. However the older 1x we needed to run "cmd /c java"

Arduino 2.0 users of Infineon XMC will see a different error when using Visual Micro without Arduino 1x.  The error means that you must install java so that it can be found on the windows PATH environment variable. That is what this tool chain expects.

Thanks for the post
