There’s something to be learned every day.

Thanks

First, yes you need to add the “upload” target manually.

I saw that you were using an Arduino UNO. Since all my testings were done on Duemilanove, I bet that is where the issue lies.

I believe that the only thing you need to change (take a look in the Makefile) is the upload baud rate, since Uno uses 115200 instead of 57600.

I don’t have an UNO on hand to test this, but if you could try it out and let me know how it goes that would be great. Thanks.

Yes i did get an error.

As said: after right clicking the makefile and choosing: Make target\All the compilation finishes succesfully.
But when i want to upload, right clicking the make file does not show any upload option.
—————–
By default I get these options right clicking the makefile:
Make
Make Clean
Make Target with the options:
all
build
clean
—–
Add Target
—————
I tried “Add target” at the right click makefile menu and supplied “upload”. Am I doing things correctly by adding the upload entry myself? (couldn’t find an answer for this one)

The make file configuration part concerning the programmer:
INSTALL_DIR = E:/00-TOOLS/arduino-1.0.1
PORT = COM3 #also tried com3, found com3 in the com hardware properties of windows 7 after connecting the UNO
UPLOAD_RATE = 57600 #also tried 9600
AVRDUDE_PROGRAMMER = stk500v1 # Also tried it with arduino (found it on the net, however.. no cigar)
MCU = atmega328p
F_CPU = 16000000

VERSION=1.0
ARDUINO = $(INSTALL_DIR)/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino
VARIANTS = $(INSTALL_DIR)/hardware/arduino/variants/standard
ARDUINO_LIB = $(INSTALL_DIR)/libraries
AVR_TOOLS_PATH = E:/00-TOOLS/WinAVR-20100110/bin
#AVRDUDE_PATH = $(INSTALL_DIR)/hardware/tools
AVRDUDE_PATH = E:/00-TOOLS/arduino-1.0.1/hardware/tools/avr/bin
AVRDUDE_CONF_PATH = E:/00-TOOLS/arduino-1.0.1/hardware/tools/avr/etc #added this one for the right location of the configuration file
——————————————————————–

Pressing the added upload entry results in the following output with indeed.. an error:

E:/00-TOOLS/arduino-1.0.1/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avrdude -V -F -C E:/00-TOOLS/arduino-1.0.1/hardware/tools/avr/etc/avrdude.conf -p atmega328p -P com3 -c arduino -b 57600 -D -U flash:w:applet/main.hex
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0×00

avrdude done. Thank you.

make: *** [upload] Error 1

MAKE FAILED (exit value 2, total time: 12s)

The arduino UNO RX LED blinks 3 times at the start of the upload, but the arduino apparently doesn’t reply
(tested the arduino UNO with the arduino IDE 1.0 and 1.0.1 which worked without any problem)

Any ideas?

Thanks..

make upload

to invoke avrdude (assuming that avrdude is in your $PATH environment variable. Did you get an error?

:(
Tried Matthias’ stuff, but could not compile the static lib, it kept launching make files (about 800 of them when I ended it :( I would like to leave a message at his board, but looks like there no option for it) ).

You should not need to have to change the make file. You should be able to set the path information using include paths under C and C++ options. Here is an example that comes from one of my projects:

C include directories:
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/variants/standard
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/cores

C++ include directories:
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/variants/standard
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/hardware/arduino/cores
/home/kwong/arduino-1.0/libraries
/usr/lib/avr/include

Please let me know if you are able to resolve your issue.

Arduino.h is located in [arduino instllation dir]/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino
So you will need to add this to your C compiler’s include directories. (e.g. right click on your project, choose properties and under the build option you will see the include directory option)

In general, you will need to include the directories that header files are stored.

I used your Makefile a while and now figured out a way to set up Netbeans for Arduino software development without using any additional plugins or makefiles. The build flow is a lot faster too, because I’m using a precompiled static core library and I have real dependency checking.
