CrossPack for AVR Development is a development environment for Atmel's AVR microcontrollers running on Apple's OS X, similar to AVR Studio on Windows. It consists of the GNU compiler suite, a C library for the AVR, the AVRDUDE downloader and several other useful tools.
This repository contains a shell script which downloads the source code of all required packages, compiles them, builds an installer package and wraps it into a disk image, ready for distribution. It also contains resources such as a project template, manual etc.
PREREQUISITES
- Xcode 6. Tested with Xcode 6.2 on 10.9 (Mavericks) and Xcode 6.3 on 10.10 (Yosemite).
BUILDING CROSSPACK-AVR
After installing Xcode, simply run
./mkdist.sh
or
./mkdist.sh debug
in the root directory of the project. You may want to edit some options in the script before running it, e.g. the version of CrossPack-AVR or versions of packages downloaded and compiled. The user who runs the script needs write permissions to the directory /usr/local.
The resulting disk image can be found in /tmp.
The build procedure preserves all downloaded packages. If you want to remove them in order to save disk space, run
./mkclean.sh
