Meanwhile, I contacted Tim and he was independently fixing the same issues, after a few emails and tests we now have a wonderfull arduino Makefile: thanks Tim!Īrduino IDE sucks.

One of the machines I use for development is ARM based, so I couldn’t use the newest Arduino versions which are downloadable from the website, because they are available only for 32 and 64 bit architectures.īut the main reason for not using Arduino IDE is that I prefer vim or other IDEs to the one provided with Arduino package.įinding a working Makefile was not an easy job: I tried first to adapt the old Makefile I was using with the older Arduino codebase but it was clearly not compatibile, after having tried to adapt some other makefiles, finally I discovered a mostly working and very well written Makefile from, I had to patch it to support more configuration overrides and to fix the missing compilation of “c” source utilities from the Wire library.
