#Repository for MCU development in Ubuntu Linux (on Android)

This repository is a simple (=crude) implementation of ready made tools by other people. The idea was to make some simple scripts to install and use different MCU building and flashing tools inside a Linux Ubuntu environment (mainly for running the compilation environment inside an Android device using the Linux Deploy app for OS installation.)

###Tools made by other people included in this repository:

mblythe86's STM32F3-Discovery Application Template toolchain: https://github.com/mblythe86/stm32f3-discovery-basic-template.git

h0rr0rrdrag0n's STM32VL-Discovery Application Template toolchain: https://github.com/h0rr0rrdrag0n/stm32vldiscovery-linux-template.git

texane's STLINK: stm32 discovery line linux programmer: https://github.com/texane/stlink.git

(Anatoly Sokolov, Eric Weddington (admin), Joerg Wunsch (admin), Paulo Marques and SprinterSB (admin))'s WinAVR: http://sourceforge.net/projects/winavr

##Setting up

###Android

1. Install Android Terminal Emulator: PlayStore

2. Install meefik's Busybox: PlayStore / https://github.com/meefik/busybox

3. Install meefik's Linux Deploy: Playstore / https://github.com/meefik/linuxdeploy

4. Setup Ubuntu (>= 15.04, "Vivid") installation

5. Set up a mount folder called "mount" and add it to usermounts. - Add folders called "avr", "stm32" and "stm32vl" inside the mount folder.

6. Run the Linux. (proceed into next part)

###Inside Linux (do these commands):

1. apt-get update

   apt-get upgrade

   apt-get -y install git

2. git clone https://github.com/venim1103/MCU_toolchain_Linux_Android.git

   cd MCU_toolchain_Linux_Android

3. ./INSTALL

OR

./make_avr 

./make_stm32 

./make_stm32_install 

./make_stm32vl

./make_stm32vl_install

That's it!

##Usage instructions

All uploaded files you edit, build and flash into your machine should be put into the correct avr, stm32 or stm32vl folder and be named "main.c".

Device: Command

• Edit the main.c file (using nano):

avr: edit_avr

stm32: edit_stm32

stm32vl: edit_stm32vl

• Copy a "main.c" file from the mounted folder (/mount/avr or /mount/stm32 or /mount/stm32vl) With this command you can edit the file inside your Android environment and then use copy commands to upload it to your Linux environment for building and flashing.

avr: cp_avr

stm32: cp_stm32

stm32vl: cp_stm32vl

• Build the main.c file for the appropriate device (initially set up for stm32f3discovery, stm32vldiscovery and atxmega128b1 devices. You can edit the corresponding Makefiles for other devices)

avr: build_avr

stm32: build_stm32

stm32vl: build_stm32vl

• Flash the .hex files into the devices (you can edit the flashing commands to be used with different devices. Initially set up for stm32f3discovery, stm32vldiscovery and atxmega128b1 boards)

avr: flash_avr

stm32: flash_stm32

stm32vl: flash_stm32vl

That concludes the basic function introduction...

The next step is to explain how to use the debugger commands for the avr and stm32 boards: gdb_stm32 (and a not yet implemented gdb_avr) commands...
