The Atmel AVR Toolchain is a collection of tools/libraries used to create applications for AVR microcontrollers. This collection includes compiler, assembler, linker and Standard C & math libraries.
As-of-yet this toolchain has not been integrated into the main OpenWSN Scons build environment.
Currently, the OpenWSN Zigduino fork (available at https://github.com/SvenAkk/openwsn-fw ) contains the adjusted Sconstruct and Sconscript files that allow working with this toolchain for AVRDUDE based programming of a Zigduino (an Arduino board) using a JTAGICE3 on a configured Windows Machine. These files are also included to this page but the most recent versions are always on the fork.
Setting up Windows 8.1 for working with the AVR Toolchain for AVRDUDE based programming using a JTAG interface
Windows is not de-facto fully compatible with the AVR toolchain and requires special configuration. In addition, most online resources are (partly) outdated, though still useful. (See also: http://m8051.blogspot.be/2015/01/avrdude-on-windows-long-time-after.html ).
First off, you need a recent avr-gcc version compiled for Windows. A pre-compiled, recent version can be found here: http://andybrown.me.uk/downloads/ .
- Extract the zip file to a location on your hard disk. These command-line tools are not happy to see pathnames with spaces in them so I recommend that you extract to the root directory of your C: drive. That will result in everything being installed into
c:\avr-gcc. - It’ll be most convenient to add
c:\avr-gcc\binto yourPATHenvironment variable.
