Building using arduino
--------------------------
To install the libraries:
- copy Library Directories to your \arduino\hardware\libraries\ or arduino\libraries directory
- Restart arduino IDE
* Each library comes with a simple example. You can find the examples in menu File->Examples
Building using make
-----------------------------------------------
- go to directory of sketch and type make.
Building using cmake
-----------------------------------------------
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake ..
- make (will build every sketch)
- make ArduPlane (will build just ArduPlane etc.)
Building using eclipse
-----------------------------------------------
assuming source located here: /home/name/apm-src
You can either download it or grab it from git:
git clone https://code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/ /home/name/apm-src
mkdir /home/name/apm-build
cd /home/name/apm-build
cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../apm-src -D BOARD=mega -D PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0
Note: unix can be substitude for MinGW/ MSYS/ NMake (for windows)
(see http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Eclipse_CDT4_Generator)
Import project using Menu File->Import
Select General->Existing projects into workspace:
Browse where your build tree is and select the root build tree directory. Keep "Copy projects into workspace" unchecked.
You get a fully functional eclipse project
You can also import the source repository (/home/name/apm-src) if you want to modify the source/ commit using git.
Advanced:
* Regenerating the eclipse source project file:
cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" -DECLIPSE_CDT4_GENERATE_SOURCE_PROJECT=TRUE /home/name/apm-src
Build a package using cpack
-----------------------------------------------
- cd build
- cmake ..
- make package
- make package_source
