Insight install complains about missing iwidgets library

Hi all,

Having just installed the cross development platform I have a problem where it now complains about the iwidget library missing whenever I go to run insight?

After having a quick look through the GNUARM install it seemed to be there but under the C:\Program Files\GNUARM\share\iwidgets4.0.1 so I went back and got the older version of the GNUARM install as it is in the app notes by Jim but this didn’t change anything.

Anybody else run into these problems??

Hi Doc.

There are three editions of the “ARM Cross Development with Eclipse”.

Revision 1 was published in spring 2005 and demonstrated RAM-only debugging with Insight.

Revision 2 was published in summer 2005 and demonstrated RAM-only debugging using the Eclipse debugger rather than Insight. This revision took advantage of the Zylin modifications of CDT.

Revision 3 was published in December 2005 and demonstrated debugging of RAM and FLASH applications,thanks to the support of Macraigor OCDRemote for the ARM hardware breakpoints.

All three revisions were hosted by Olimex (www.olimex.com) and if you search for the ARM-JTAG product (the wiggler clone), you’ll see the links to the text and source files there.

Sparkfun mirrored the original Revision 1 release in Spring 2005. They have not updated their links since then. If you download the tutorial from Sparkfun, you’re getting the oldest version.

Now, in the intervening time, Eclipse, Zylin et.al. have been upgrading their versions. I have attempted at each publication to integrate the very latest versions of Eclipse, Zylin CDT, etc. Therefore, Doc, it is best for you to get a copy of the latest revision of the tutorial and work from that.

I don’t think you will want to use Insight, which is getting very little development from RedHat, after you’ve seen how great the Eclipse debugger is.

To answer your question, I installed Insight into my current setup this evening and it ran perfectly with no errors (using my Revision 3 Tutorial material).

My recommendation is to go to the Olimex web site (see the links on recent messages in this topic) and download my latest Revision 3 tutorial and set it up again. I bet it will work fine. :lol:

Cheers,

Ok sounds good Jim.

So basically I just use the install from Olimex website and use the OCDRemote with Eclispse.

I was following your notes that I originally got from Sparkfun so thankyou very much for the update!

I’ll give it a crack and see ow it goes.
