[hpsdr] Compile FX2-fw

Wed Jun 4 09:13:16 PDT 2008

Hi Bill,

you do not need to apologyze. We all have some other things to do besides
FX2...

Your zipfile helped to find the solution.

I now use Eclipse under Windows and and found that "asx8051-eclipse.zsh" is
not working properly (mkdir and cp cannot be found). You can see this in the
attached file "error_log.txt". Oviously the system needs to be able to
handle mkdir and cp what is not true for a bare windows os. After installing
"CYGWIN" all is working fine.

Thanks for your help.

73, Gerd

Hi Gerd,

Apologies for being slow to respond -- work's keeping my busy of late.

I don't quite know what the issue you're running into is.  I did zip 
up my built under Eclipse FX2 tree and placed it 
@:  http://tracey.org/wjt/hpsdr/temp/ozysdr1kfx2.zip

In the release dir, there is a makefile that eclispe generates.  I 
also put a copy of the console log from running the build in 
build.log -- that pretty much shows all the compiler options being 
used with the various commands.

Hope this helps -- let me know either way.  Willing to help, just a 
matter of me finding time for it.

Cheers,

Bill (kd5tfd)
