Problem compiling...

[Bunny-Head]

After installing CMake & gcc-arm-none-eabi, and after doing cmake -S . -B build on main directory, I get this:

-- Building for: NMake Makefiles PICO_SDK_PATH is C:/Users/Fali/Downloads/deskhop-main/pico-sdk Defaulting PICO_PLATFORM to rp2040 since not specified. Defaulting PICO platform compiler to pico_arm_gcc since not specified. -- Defaulting build type to 'Release' since not specified. PICO compiler is pico_arm_gcc CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:12 (project): Running

'nmake' '-?'

failed with:

no such file or directory

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Can somebody help me with the next step please?

EDIT: If I delete CMakeCache.txt and do "cmake -S . -B build -G "MinGW Makefiles" i get:

PICO_SDK_PATH is C:/Users/Fali/Downloads/deskhop-main/pico-sdk Defaulting PICO_PLATFORM to rp2040 since not specified. Defaulting PICO platform compiler to pico_arm_gcc since not specified. -- Defaulting build type to 'Release' since not specified. PICO compiler is pico_arm_gcc CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "MinGW Makefiles". CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set. You probably need to select a different build tool. -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

EDIT 2: Managed to do the first part by installing MinGW-w64. Now I have this issue:

Update the VERSION argument value or use a ... suffix to tell CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

-- The CXX compiler identification is unknown CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project): No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

Tell CMake where to find the compiler by setting either the environment variable "CXX" or the CMake cache entry CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER to the full path to the compiler, or to the compiler name if it is in the PATH.

I did not get it working on windows either, so i moved to linux for compiling.

I never tried building it on Windows, so I can't help much there. If anyone has, please share instructions and I'll add them to the wiki. For the time being, I'd advise sticking to Linux.

I never tried building it on Windows, so I can't help much there. If anyone has, please share instructions and I'll add them to the wiki. For the time being, I'd advise sticking to Linux.

Instructions for Windows compilation:

1. Run through setup for WSL (Ubuntu): https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install
2. Open a Linux shell by running ubuntu from a Windows command prompt or the run menu
3. Enter the following commands to setup pre-requisites:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install cmake gcc-arm-none-eabi libnewlib-arm-none-eabi libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-newlib g++
git clone https://github.com/hrvach/deskhop.git
cd deskhop
cmake -S . -B build

4. Compile code:

cmake --build build

Can we close this issue?

Solved!
