I have problem with the paths when trying to build under Windows.

Are the compiler meant to use the ../build/xcommon/....

I cannot compile with or without xcommon downloaded from GIT.

The install directory is the default one.

I'll let the engineers know.

There is a known issue in the beta with USB AUDIO boards too.

Code: Select all

xmake[2]: Files (x86)/XMOS/DevelopmentTools/ 11.11.0beta1/build/xcommon/module_xcommon/build/../build/Makefile.common1: No such file or directory
It is the beginning that is lost.
It should be "C:\Program Files (x86)"

Hi lilltroll,

I just had a go at trying to reproduce this one. I seem to be able to create a new empty projects, and ones based on the code templates, and build them successfully on windows. Is there any chance you could attach the particular project that is causing this issue for you?

hi all,
here my contribution: the missing part of the path that Lilltroll reported has blank spaces, maybe some quotation mark missing...

Have you tried it on a X64 Win7 system.

The crazy Win7 thing is that
"c:\Program Files (x86)" {in cmd.exe}
is only showed as "Program (x86)" in the window explorer

Probably easy to create problems for non Microsoft programs

I guess all would work if I reinstalled it in c:\XMOS.... instead

Updated: I moved the XMOS to the root, and changed the paths in the shortcut, it now worked directly.
But I guess others will have problem on Win7 x64 (I have 16 Gbyte RAM)

I've let the Tools guys know about this bug and it should be patched in the full release.

I have tested on both Win7 X86 and Win7 X64, it seems to be that all " " {spacebar} in filenames, project names etc becomes invalid.

Is there any more information about the xcc -fllvm yet?

Code: Select all

int main(){
	chan c[3];
	double Af=3.5,Bf=4.5,Cf;
	long long A=1000000;
	long long B=1000000;
	long long C;

	Cf=Af+Bf;
	C=A*B;

	printf("%f + %f = %f\n",Af,Bf,Cf);
	printf("%lld * %lld = %lld\n",A,B,C);

    return 0;
}
Console:
3.500000 + 4.500000 = 8.000000
1000000 * 1000000 = 1000000000000

the debugger run in simulation mode has become great to work with.
Really easy to trace what is happening when doing instruction by instruction tracing. :!:
