I’m new to Midibox, but i love the concept already. I’m putting together my firts LPC17 core but I got stuck setting up the programming environment. I’m on Mac with Lion OSX and XCode 4.3. I installed SDCC an GPUTILS with Mac Ports as in the Docu Wiki. I set up the environment variables as in http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=macos_mios32_toolchain_core, I put the skeleton project in XCode (with only an app target), but when I build, Xcode does not see the environment variables, and ends with an error.
I’m honored to hear from you in person. I had missed out the tool chain download, but I’ m not sure it’s downloaded correctly. It stops at 19.9m but says it has more. And then unzipping gives an error. Any other server to try?
And if I figure out how to set up with Lion an Xcode, I will post it.
plz do! i’m using xcode and make -s from the terminal. i’d love to see my errors highlighted among all those warnings that i ignore for now and will get to fixing later.
I’m kinda new to Mac and I haven’t used xcode as anything but a basic editor. I have programmer’s status, but my understanding of the toolchain isn’t the greatest so I just follow the wiki instructions.
For me, Xcode is also new. I used to program in other environments.
I now got to the point where I can use XCode for editing and compile from the terminal with make -s. I needed the toolchain and the command line tools (Xcode->Preferences->Downloads->Command Line Tools->install). But then I could compile 001_forwarding_midi without any problems. I now have a .hex file, that needs to be converted to .syx (once I finish the core), right?
But I did not get xcode to properly understand the environment variables. It says
/Users/martijneskinasi/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MIOS_Skeleton-fbpmxsbgweoachcyuzoxednrxabu/Build/Intermediates/MIOS Skeleton.build/Debug/SkeletonApp.build/Script-E3BCCAE4158FB69A006D012B.sh: line 7: cd: /Users/martijneskinasi/Documents/Studio/XCode/MIOS: No such file or directory

$MIOS32_PATH is properly set up in ~/.profile and is available in the terminal. I do not understand why a makefile should be a target.

No - you can upload the .hex file directly to the core by using MIOS Studio.
A .syx file conversion is neither required, nor supported for MIOS32 (since the approach via MIOS Studio is more robust)
