Win32 native Toolchain for PSPSDK

Is there a pretty chance to add psp-insight (psp-debug GUI) ?

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Mon Jul 07, 2008 5:24 am

Well... i've to study the existing patches and how can i integrate then with gcc 4.3.1. Since i'm using eclipse gdb is all i need to debug since eclipse will give me the graphical breakpoints and var/mem inspection. I'll see what i can do but i cannot say i'll add it on the next release. Maybe i'll try to make a nice tutorial about the gdb and the eclipse debugger ;)

Anyway I'll take a look into insight...

well I'm using Code::Block for a multi-platform project, but it doesn't seem to cope very well with psp-gdb. So I was wondering if psp-insight would work so I can use it to debug through psplink whatever the RAD I use (VS 2008 or Code::Block).

Heimdall, can you take this solution posted in http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?p=72235#72235 into account in your pspsdk binaries ? psplink was unable to allocate more than 32 MB without this modification in boot271 Makefile.

I'll take a look, i've been updating the pspsh and usbhostfs_pc apps to use readline and ncurses (still with the cygwin dll) I'll look at that thread and try to make a build before going on vacation tomorrow. If i manage to get it working I'll uploaded under the experimental area since i won't have time to test everything

Is this ALSO for VISTA?

Or should I continue with 0.8.2-vista?

EDIT: I missed the post that said every single build is now compatible

How can I resolve

"Multiple target patters. Stop" error. Any idea?

I have cygwin (just setup recently) and this.

It points to build.mak line 177.

C:/PSPSDK/psp/sdk/lib/build.mak:177: *** multiple target patterns. Stop.

Wow, this has made everything so much easier for me and anyone else getting into psp homebrew.

Thanks so much for putting the time into this project.

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 6:53 pm

The latest builds are for XP or Vista. The old Vista package was my first build that i tested under that OS because i do all the patching and building under XP so Vista is not tested thoroughly, I just install and build the samples and assume it should work because the binaries are equal to the XP ones.

About the multiple target i think it's because my build and cygwin are both in your path and conflicting with eachother

KickinAezz: spaces in directory names?

@heimdall

Fixed by reinstall :)

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Sun Sep 14, 2008 9:20 pm

@molusca gprof is included see the gprof sample in the sdk debug samples. Because the loading of eboots are a bit different from usual win32/linux/etc... apps you need to add some extra code that you might enable with a pre processor #ifdef statement...

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 12:38 am

Updated the SDK 0.8.7

This version includes the latest SVN and GCC 4.3.2. I also rewrote the toolchain script because I totally messed up my Msys/MinGW installation and couldn't build the SDK anymore.

Now the doc contains all the packages i used to get the environment back to stable.

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 7:50 pm

Release 0.8.9 is out:

* Objective-C and Objective-C++ support
* clean up the docs
* better build environment

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfil ... _id=633156

phobox · Post by **phobox** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 8:57 pm

with the last release 0.8.9
ha get this error (win vista)
psp-gcc: CreateProcess: No such file or directory

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 9:04 pm

can you check if the SDK is in your path? open a DOS console and type psp-gcc --version

and check if you get:

psp-gcc (GCC) 4.3.2

Just want to say thanks again Heimdall!! I look forward to future releases... no if only I can fix my png code problem...

P.S. I posted a guide to using it with VCEE on DaedalusX64.com from scratch to compiling the released Daedalus R13 code.

jojojoris · Post by **jojojoris** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 6:14 am

Can you make a installer that installs all the devpacks and the toolchain at once.
Just for lazy programmers like me. Also becouse sourceforge can be pritty anoying when you download a lot of files.

angelo · Post by **angelo** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 10:09 am

I'll second that... it makes it easier for so many devs and keeps the forums cleaner. ;)

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 6:54 pm

Yes I am aware that people do not like to download one thousand installers to get a decent dev environment :) I'm working in the way that the next release will come as usual in 2 flavors:

* base, just the compiler
* full, compiler + docs + a set of common devpaks such as SDL, pspGL and so on.

angelo · Post by **angelo** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 5:24 am

Ohhh sounds delicious, but can you notify me when your compiling the PSPIRKeyBLib into it please?

The one that's in your pack is years old and is lacking many drivers and key repeats!

I tried emailing Harald, but no response, so I'm the only one onthe scene with the latest PSPIRKeyB lib!

Even ZX81 (after countless reminders and sent files) is out of date!

I won't send it now, because I'm always adding to it.

Thanks and good luck!

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 7:32 am

ok, please make sure the latest code is on ps2dev svn or else send me a patch.

why don't you add a third flavor:
*full, compiler + docs + all devpacks you made?

That's what he just said! lol

@Heimdall I'll send you a patch soon. I just need to find time to prepare it. Also, how would I go about posting the lib onto the svn?

Thanks

Angelo

Heimdall · Post by **Heimdall** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 9:35 pm

I don't have write permissions to the ps2dev svn, if you post the patch here maybe the site admins will merge it to the SVN or i can use it during my build process

angelo · Post by **angelo** » Wed Nov 05, 2008 5:03 am

Thanks I might do that!
