[esp32][how-to] forte build instruction. [message #1851819]

Hi
As I promised, there is simple how to which shows how to get forte working on esp32. Probably there will be continuation on how to get lua dynamic type loader and OPC UA quite soon. I hope it will be useful to someone.

If there is something that isn't clear enought feel free to ask.

Thanks

Hi:
Question:

Next option to set is the FORTE_TicksPerSecond option to 100 instead of 1000.

WHY ?

i would more like to have set the sdkconfig Option CONFIG_FREERTOS_HZ=1000
instead of 100 which is Standard for a new ESP32 Project ?

i posted you this as an issue as well. so not get lost.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your work! Sorry to bother you. I am a newcomer to 4diac forte. According to your tutorial operation, the following prerequisites have been set, but I have encountered some problems. In the following paragraph:

"For esp32 we have to select FreeRTOSLwIP from drop down list. Now when click configure, most errors should dissapear. There will be only few parameters marked with red. Now there is a time to fillup include dependencies for freertos. Parameter FORTE_FreeRTOSLwIP_INCLUDES has to be set. It takes string with semicolon separated paths to include folders in esp-idf. There is quite a lot of paths that have to be added as include paths. Below there is a working configuration, please note that all of those paths are absolue so you need to modify all of them. In most cases it should be enought to repleace all occurrences of /home/arek/Projekty/esp32-idf/esp-idf with your ESP-IDF root directory path. For example with /home/my_user/my_projects/my-idf_path."

I don't know which drop-down list to look for FreeRTOSLwIP. I would be appreciated if you have some suggestions.

Sorry to bother you! (Forgive my poor English.)In the following step：
Once you have changed this file, save it, close and we can try first forte compilation for esp32 platform.
Go to ${FORTE_ROOT}/build/src and type make -j your make tool should start doing all the jobs and as a result, after some small amount of time, you should have builded forte static library like on the picture below:

I encounter a problem that says "/home/tzw/VScode_esp32s3/idf/esp-idf/components/newlib/platform_include/assert.h:20:10: fatal error: sdkconfig.h:
No such file or directory
#include <sdkconfig.h>"

I have no idea what to do. I wonder how to add this file. Thank you.

Hi
Acording to the tutorial, I get forte.a. But when I load and build the 4diac example application project to test , I encouter some errors as shown in the picture.
Are there any solutions or ideas?( I have searched from the github but there are no solutions that can work for my situation.)

This Problem only can be solved by evaluating the Return Code of the Task-Creation. most Likely you are out of Memory.

Hi,
I want to share my works experiences about forte compile for esp32.

First off all I compile forte as a static library and when I use this library in my example esp32-s2 project there is some error accured about freertos timer functions.
If I add xTaskCreate function into forte_main.cpp (for create dummy timer), there is no error. Successfully build project for esp32-s2 and I can flash into esp32 -s2which builded program(bin, elf etc.).
But when I run this program runtime error accured. Like this:
ERROR: T#3170000000: Error: Could not create FreeRTOS Task thread!ERROR: T#3170000000: Error could not create the thread!

I tried this repo "meisterschulen-am-ostbahnhof-munchen"
I compiled everything for esp32. When I flash esp32 program I saw a warning like this " this program for rev3(esp32) your board rev1"
I couldnt flash that.
After that I compiled this repo for esp32-s2 no error no issues.
I flashed into esp32-s2 program runs ther is no problem for here.
I opened 4diac ide I created example blink project and deployed successfully. But when deployed blink project error occured:
ERROR: T#3170000000: Error: Could not create FreeRTOS Task thread!ERROR: T#3170000000: Error could not create the thread!

I understood in "meisterschulen-am-ostbahnhof-munchen" repos, there is only one differences from "amid123/4diac-forte-esp32-component"
the forte instance creates after deploy.

As a result I cant run forte on esp32 successfully.

Best Regards.
