Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #1 Posted by Ed Wright on 18 Feb 2012, 10:58 a.m. I'm trying to build calc.bin for WP34s for the first time. I have followed the instructions shown at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/wp34s/index.php?title=How_to_build_the_firmware I can successfully build the emulator, but not calc.bin. I enter win-build-arm.cmd, and I get the following warning: /pathname/ld.exe: warning: cannot find entry symbol entry; not setting start address followed by chcp 850 active code page: 850 The only file created in the realbuild directory is mapfile.txt. I'm a hardware guy, not a programmer and I can't figure out what I have wrong. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

In the root directory you will find flash.cmd instead. This might still not explain your trouble. Is Yagarto.de installed? If you run the flash.cmd script a log file will be generated which I may be able to analyze.

Re: Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #5 Posted by pascal_meheut on 19 Feb 2012, 2:13 a.m., in response to message #4 by Ed Wright You also ned a normal, windows compiler. Did you install mingw & perl? Or cygwin? Do you have a "cc" compiler in your path?

Re: Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #6 Posted by Ed Wright on 19 Feb 2012, 7:19 a.m., in response to message #5 by pascal_meheut Yes to mingw and activePerl. I also have Visual Studio. Since the emulator builds and works I assumed these were working.

Re: Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #7 Posted by pascal_meheut on 19 Feb 2012, 8:38 a.m., in response to message #6 by Ed Wright minwg is not used to build the emulator, at least not the current one. What happens if you simply type "cc" in your command line?

Re: Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #9 Posted by Ed Wright on 19 Feb 2012, 2:13 p.m., in response to message #7 by pascal_meheut I'm downloading Gnu tools now. I was following the wiki. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks for all the help!

If not, please let me know what's wrong and I'll update them. cheers! dominic

Thanks! that doesn't work for me either, however this does: cd wp34s makewin.cmd cd trunk make REALBUILD=1

Re: Help building WP34s calc.bin Message #12 Posted by Marcus von Cube, Germany on 19 Feb 2012, 4:26 a.m., in response to message #11 by Dominic Richens The makewin script contains the call to make so going back to trunk and running make again is not needed. As Pascal has pointed out, Ed is obviously missing the Windows GCC.
