upload in nightly does not work

[wimjongman]

I am working on a new projject and I reinstalled sloeber in c:\apps\sloeber

I can't get the sketch to upload, any idea?

Starting upload
Uploading project "blink" with "AVRDUDE"
Starting reset using DTR toggle process -> I see board action
Continuing to use "COM3"
Ending reset

Launching:
Output:
Cannot run program "" (in directory "C:\Users\jongw\workspaces\slbr"): CreateProcess error=87, The parameter is incorrect
failed to upload "L/blink/blink}/Release/blink.hex"

Ok, I was referring to the wrong issue. I removed all unrelated comments and answers.

This is about the upload not working. Is this caused by CDT10 you think?

The first message I see is:

A.tools.avrdude.upload..pattern : not found in the platform.txt file

There is a double point between upload and pattern. Is that a red herring?

[wimjongman]

I assume the platform.txt is refering to pre_processing_platform.txt which is rebuilt one every restart. My file does not conain the menioned key ^^
pre_processing_platform.txt

you can't use cdt10 with the latest sloeber release on windows
why
pre cdt10 all environment variables were uppercased on windows
post cdt10 no uppercasing happens
cdt has always been case sensitive
as the current final release was pre cdt 10 it assumes cdt uppercases the environment variables

I debugged the program and found a bug in the code below. When the networkPrefix is empty, the key will get two dots and can not be resolved to a value. When the dot is removed, it is resolved.

        if (isNetworkUpload()) {
            networkPrefix = Const.NETWORK_PREFIX;
        }
        String key = Const.A_TOOLS + upLoadTool + DOT + action + DOT + networkPrefix + DOT + Const.PATTERN;

Still this does not solve it completely,

What should it put there? "make" or "avrdude"?

What should it put there? "make" or "avrdude"?

That is defined by the boards.txt/platform.txt

[jantje]

The DOT problem is indeed a bug but it is a bug in the nightly introduced during the upperCasing removal.
And why I'm reluctant to release

[jantje]

The DOT is not the only problem. Seems workaround needs a fix to.

Works now on my system

What is the key for that specific part?

[wimjongman]

Ok, I looked at platform.txt. It contains the following:

tools.avrdude.cmd.path={path}/bin/avrdude
<snip>
tools.avrdude.upload.pattern="{cmd.path}" "-C{config.path}" {upload.verbose} {upload.verify} -p{build.mcu}

It looks to me that "cmd.path" should be "tools.avrdude.cmd.path"

[jantje]

It looks to me that "cmd.path" should be "tools.avrdude.cmd.path"

yes
That is fixed in 52a3422
There was still a toupper

[jantje]

sorry should have been 1a25c1b
The other is the cosmetic stuff

I'm running with that commit. Do I have to remove everything first?

[jantje]

please see your whatsapp/mail I'm waiting in video chat for you

I removed the arduinoPlugin directory and now it finally uploads.
