Build bootloader for mesh

[rolliG]

I am trying to build the mesh-bootloader and the cmake build system throws some error, could You have a look at my comandline options, or say what is going wrong.

I am using the cmake to generate the makefiles, this works well. But I didn't find a complete command line call in the documetation to build the bootloader, here is that one which I try with:

>cmake BUILD_BOOTLOADER -DTOOLCHAIN=gccarmemb -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel .. 

I get the following error:

D:\Work\BLE\TimerAufsatz_BLtest\build>cmake BUILD_BOOTLOADER -DTOOLCHAIN=gccarme

what I am doing wrong?

[Bjørn Kvaale]

From your first output log, it seems like you didn't add the armgcc compiler to your path: arm-none-eabi-gcc. Oftentimes, it is located at e.g.: C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\7 2017-q4-major\bin\

The compiler is already in the path variable, I can call it from whereever in the system:

this was the first thing I've been lokking for. Is the call to cmake ok "cmake BUILD_BOOTLOADER -DTOOLCHAIN=gccarmemb -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel .." ?

[Bjørn Kvaale]

Have you taken a look at these two links (link 1, link 2)? I am unsure exactly how to build the bootloader with cmake, but you could easily build the relevant segger embedded studio projects by making a build folder right under the mesh source folder (i.e. mesh_sdk_v1.0.1/build) & from there running the commands found either in link 2 or in this link. Then, you can easily build the bootloader in segger embedded studio if you want.

If you want to only use cmake, you should be able to follow the second link I posted to get that working. Good luck!
