Starting the Seed and VS Code problems

Troubleshooting and Support
1

HI everyone, I’m just starting out with the Daisy Seed and VS Code so please forgive me for asking some questions that are probably quite simple. I’ve think I’ve installed the toolchain correctly and the examples folder in on my desktop following on the instructions online but try as I may I can not get the blink program to compile, all I get is errors. below is the output I get. could someone have a look and if possible let me know what I may have done wrong and how it can be fixed. Thanks for reading and I hope someone can help… I’m running windows 10

I don’t use Windows, but the error looks like it’s a very old version of gcc.

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I will look at updating those files …
Thanks again

Of course, I could be wrong. My reasoning is that those error messages indicate that your version of GCC doesn’t have support for Cortex-M7, which has been around for years.
Where did you get instructions on installing the toolchain? This shouldn’t be a research project or an adventure.

I think this might be the latest documentation:

5

I followed that exact link you posted so it should be correct. is there a way of showing what version of GCC I have installed ?

6

I just redownloaded and reinstalled the tool chain from the link on your post just to be sure and Im still getting the same errors ?

7

go to the command prompt and type: g++ --version

8

Thank you …

Dmax7@DESKTOP-72DADD4 MINGW64 ~/Documents/Daisy_Seed_Projects/DaisyExamples/seed/Blink (master)
$ g++ --version
g++.exe (GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain 10-2020-q4-major) 10.2.1 20201103 (release)
I take it this is the correct version ?

Well Im still trying to get this working … can no one tellme why Im getting these errors ? ive looked for answers on the forum here but cant find anything that works ? it seems that no matter what I do I can not get the Make command to work ?
please help if you can :slight_smile:

I’m not a windows guy, so this might be a red herring, but are you sure that g++.exe and arm-none-eabi-g++.exe are the same program? What does arm-none-eabi-g++.exe --version show?

Hope this helps,
John

that gives me this
arm-none-eabi-g++.exe (GCC) 4.7.2

and g++.exe (GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain 10-2020-q4-major) 10.2.1 20201103 (release)

12

That maybe the problem … I uninstalled thatarm-none… exe program and things are looking better … thanks to you :slight_smile:

13

Yes that was the problem , I can now compile the code …
Thanks again :slight_smile:

Glad it worked out for you! As I say, not a WIndoze guy at all (Linux here, please), so this was a total shot in the dark.

Best of luck moving forward,
John

thanks again John
