You an find information about nightly builds and team deviationTx development on the team devaitionTx wik: https://bitbucket.org/deviationtx/deviation/wiki/Home Bugs can be reported and features requested at http://deviationtx.com/mantisbt/ There are multiple targets available for building the Deviation firmware: devo8: This is the default target for the Walkera Devention 'DEVO8' transmitter It requires the gnu arm toolchain including gcc, and newlib To build, use: make emu_devo8: This will build on the native platform (no cross-compiler needed) The main purpose of this target is to facilitate GUI development. This target requires FLTK to be installed. See below for installing build enviornments For Linux: make TARGET=emu_devo8 For Windows: make TARGET=emu_devo8 WINDOWS=1 Cross-compile for Windows on Linux: make TARGET=emu_devo8 WINDOWS=1 CROSS=i586-mingw32msvc- the default target is 'devo8' Installing the build environment: ################################# Only the official embedded-arm build system is supported now Get the most recent release from here: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded Current build version: gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_8-2013q4-20131204 ################################# Building for ARM (on Linux): 1) download and install the precompiled linux compiler from here: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded 2) Add path to 'bin' directory to your PATH Building for ARM (on Windows): Install the arm toolchain: 1) download and install the precompiled windows compiler from here: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded 1a) add path to 'bin' directory to your PATH (I like to put this into ~/.profile so it is there each time I start msys) export PATH=/mingw/stm32/bin:$PATH 2) ensure python is installed. If not install it from here: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.3/ 2a) Add python to your msys path: export PATH="/c/<path to python>":$PATH (e.g. export PATH="/c/Program Files/Python27":$PATH) ################################# ################################# Builing the Windows binary on Linux Install fltk: apt-get install mingw32 mingw32-binutils mingw32-runtime <Download and unpack fltk source code> ./configure --disable-largefile --enable-localjpeg \ --enable-localzlib --enable-localpng \ --disable-gl --host=i586-mingw32msvc \ --prefix=/opt/fltk-w32 make sudo make install Install portaudio: <Download and unpack portaudio source code> ./configure --prefix=/opt/portaudio-w32 make sudo make install ################################# ################################# Building the Windows binary on Windows ################################# Install MingW: * Download the mingw installer as per: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started * Run the installer, and select 'C++', 'MSYS' and the 'Developer Toolkit' Install fltk: * Download fltk from here: http://fltk.org/software.php?VERSION=1.3.0&FILE=fltk/1.3.0/fltk-1.3.0-source.tar.gz * Start msys (you should have an icon, but otherwise run C:\MingW\msys\1.0\msys.bat * mkdir src * cd src * Untar fltk: tar -xzf <path to fltk download> (you can get to your C: drive in mingw using /c/Users/<user>/Downloads for example) * cd fltk-1.3.0 * ./configure * make * make install Install portaudio: * Download portaudio from here: http://www.portaudio.com/archives/pa_stable_v19_20111121.tgz * Start msys (you should have an icon, but otherwise run C:\MingW\msys\1.0\msys.bat * cd src * Untar portaudio: tar -xzf <path to portaudio download> (you can get to your C: drive in mingw using /c/Users/<user>/Downloads for example) * cd portaudio * ./configure * make * make install Install Deviation: * Download the source code for deviation. You'll need mercurial to keep track of changes (which will require installing python), but you can manually download a zip of the source from bitbucket.org/PhracturedBlue/deviation * cd ~/src * cp -pf <path to deviation src code> deviation * cd deviation/src
