Firmware build instructions

[Graeme McCall]

Hi there,

 

I was wondering if it would be possible to add some build instructions onto the firmware github page (https://gitlab.com/firmaplus/atari-2600-pluscart/)?

 

I'm familiar with Java/C# builds but doing C builds is fairly new to me - I had a look around this forum but couldn't find anything.

 

I've tried installing Eclipse and opened the project but got various errors (e.g. No rule to make target 'PlusCart.elf', needed by 'all'.)

 

No worries if it's too big a job.

 

Many thanks,

Graeme.

You need the STM32CubeIDE:

to build the firmware, and the STM32CubeProgrammer to flash it to the PlusCart:

You can find the links, and the instructions how to flash and the manual at the PlusCart homepage:

... make sure you set the build target to RELEASE version. It defaults to DEBUG, I think.
