Error compiling er9x on macOS

Post by Efrieh »

Hi,
I'm trying to compile er9x on macOS with serial LCD enabled for an Atmega128. But I get the error message:

Code: Select all

menus.cpp: In function 'int16_t calc_scaler(uint8_t, uint8_t*, uint8_t*)':
menus.cpp:283:3: error: 'store_telemetry_scaler' was not declared in this scope
   store_telemetry_scaler( epscaler->dest, value ) ;
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
menus.cpp:283:3: note: suggested alternative: 'get_telemetry_value'
   store_telemetry_scaler( epscaler->dest, value ) ;
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   get_telemetry_value
menus.cpp:976: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
make: *** [obj/menus.o] Error 1
Is there a way to fix this?

P.S: This is the first time I'm trying to compile er9x myself so I'm a complete newby :roll:

What command line are you using?
You need:
make CPU=128 EXT=FRSKY

Hi Mike,

I tried that and now I get the following error:

Code: Select all

menus.cpp:976:56: internal compiler error: in type_hash_canon, at tree.c:6619
 typedef PROGMEM void (*MenuFuncP_PROGMEM)(uint8_t event);
Oh and I just stumbled on flybabos post about custom lcds on rcgroups (https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthr ... custom-LCD) but it somehow doesn't work for me :(

But I've tried a old build posted by midelic on the core9x thread and that does work. (https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthr ... %21/page65)

Essentially I just need the "normal", latest er9x-128 configured for serial LCD. But if I follow flybabos tutorial I just get a blank screen (even after changing the contrast). The older version from midelic (for an Atmega64) does work on my Atmgea128 devboard and core9x prototype (also 128).

That may be a problem with the compiler you are using. It looks like that typedef is a copy of the one in "menus.h", so you might try commenting out that line in "menus.cpp".

Ok, now I get a few other errors :shock:

Just to confirm that my wiring for flybabos custom hex is not wrong: I need to connect the display (standard Zolen) in the following order, right?
PC5 -> SI (DB7)
PC4 -> SCL (DB6)
PC3 -> A0
PC2 -> RES
PC1 -> CS
and obviously GND and VCC

Could you compile a standard 128-version with serial LCD enabled? :oops:
That would fix the problem for me

Try this version of en.h. I think some compilers require a space between multiple strings in a define.

I'll need to investigate what the serial connectins are, I've never used one and flybabo did the changes to support them.
I'll also need to check what defines need to be set for a serial LCD compile.

Edit: It WORKRS! Now I'm all set for testing :D
