Dear Devepment and support people, On "sparkfun" I am following "mifi's" instrutions to a tee. http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=11221 never the less:
I took another shot at attempting to compile my own version of openOCD with ftd2xx. Both attemps on my work laptop (Vista) and my home PC (XP) resulted in identical failure. >>> This is important and relates, to a bunch of people who would like to be able to succesfully use openOCD with ftd2xx, right now <<<<: http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=16172 Fact of the matter is we can not get the compile to work and get stuck trying to use the unix like commands "./bootstrap" and "./configure" One nice and impressive thing is that subversion was able to properly download all the source files for openOCD via cygwin, as advertised, so we are almost there. This is a plea for help. Here is an excerpt from openOCDs own website, that indicates they may admit that using cygwin is not easy. It would sure help if someone would come to our rescue and prove to us that it can be done. Building OpenOCD from a repository requires a recent version of the GNU autotools (autoconf >= 2.59 and automake >= 1.9). For building on Windows, you have to use Cygwin. Make sure that your @env{PATH} environment variable contains no other locations with Unix utils (like UnxUtils) - these can't handle the Cygwin paths, resulting in obscure dependency errors. This was an observation gathered from the logs of one user; please correct us if this is wrong. Ref bottom of page here: http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/openocd/trunk/README It seem this statement is saying "We have not figured it out yet, either" So the community is still looking for more guidance. I think there is someone out there who is more unix savy than me that can get us un-stuck. Cygwin is more like unix than windows. "A penny will get you on the subway, but garlic will get you a seat" Sincerely, Joe
