Cross compilation for Asus RT-N16 fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have Asus RT-N16 (running on Broadcom 47xx, linux). Trying to cross-compile 
that on Ubuntu 10.04 (thru VMWare Player).


What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download toochain from 
http://code.google.com/p/wl500g/downloads/list?can=3&q=hndtools-mipsel-uclibc-4.
4.6-K26&colspec=Filename+Summary+Uploaded+Size+DownloadCount
2. Add that to the path:
PATH=$PATH:/home/user/hndtools-mipsel-uclibc-4.4.6-K26/bin/
3. Install subversion:
sudo apt-get install subversion
4. Checkout all needed files:
svn checkout http://openzwave-control-panel.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 
openzwave-control-panel
svn checkout http://open-zwave.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ open-zwave
svn checkout https://gnunet.org/svn/libmicrohttpd/ libmicrohttpd
5. Change the Makefile
CC     := mipsel-linux-gcc
CXX    := mipsel-linux-g++
LD     := mipsel-linux-g++
6. Run make:
user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/openzwave-control-panel$ make

What am I doing wrong?

OK, I've fixed the issue with ../libmicrohttpd/src/daemon/.libs/libmicrohttpd.a 
(just compiled libmicrohttpd).
Need to find IOKit for Ubuntu...

After Makefile correction, I got another error:

user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/openzwave-control-panel$ make
g++ -o ozwcp -g ozwcp.o webserver.o zwavelib.o   
../libmicrohttpd/src/daemon/.libs/libmicrohttpd.a -pthread -ludev

working on this now

Here is the way to compile openzwave-control-panel for Ubuntu 10.04 (probably, 
it can be added to the project wiki):

1. sudo apt-get install subversion

*** open-zwave: ***
2. svn checkout http://open-zwave.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ open-zwave
3. sudo apt-get install libudev-dev
4. user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/open-zwave/cpp/build/linux$ make

*** libmicrohttpd: ***
5. svn checkout https://gnunet.org/svn/libmicrohttpd/ libmicrohttpd - it 
doesn't work, since svn doesn't contain all files needed, so download 
libmicrohttpd manually from http://freshmeat.net/projects/libmicrohttpd (direct 
link - http://freshmeat.net/urls/6aaea0ce4467311c086c225d761fd5fa) and unpack 
to libmicrohttpd folder
6. user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/libmicrohttpd$ ./configure
7. user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/libmicrohttpd$ make

*** openzwave-control-panel: ***
8. svn checkout http://openzwave-control-panel.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 
openzwave-control-panel
9. modify openzwave-control-panel Makefile (comment Mac-related lines and 
uncomment Linux related)
10. user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/openzwave-control-panel$ make clean
11. user@ubuntu1004desktop:~/openzwave-control-panel$ make

Will try to compile that on Asus RT-N16 later on.

I was able to compile after following comment #5 and adding #include 
<algorithm> to ozwcp.cpp(I know that's bad, but it worked).
I like the panel a lot even though I just started with Z-Wave and still try to 
find out the basics.

Downloaded and compiled under FC-14.  After some? pain I was able to get a 
executable after I added "-lgcrypt -lgnutls" to the Linux section of Makefile.

         LIBUSB := -ludev -lgcrypt -lgnutls

What is FC-14?

Original comment by [email protected] on 5 Nov 2011 at 3:38

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Maybe it is Fedora Core 14

Also of note is that once everything was compiled, I needed to create a folder, 
"config" at the root of the control-panel folder. Then I copied over the 
device_classes.xml in to it in order for the discovery to work correctly for my 
scene controller.

There is still a zwbutton.xml not found error that I am trying to figure out.

My libmicrohttpd download is still refusing to build the .a file I need for the 
control panel.

Any ideas? Running ubuntu 12.04. Followed steps in comment #5, made sure to 
download source from second location, not svn.

Original comment by [email protected] on 25 Feb 2014 at 8:38

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Ok, I found the .a file. In the most recent release (0.9.34) the lib files have 
moved to libmicrohttpd/src/microhttpd/.libs/

Now the build is failing due to undefined references to a bunch of gnutls 
functions or something, eg. 'gnutls_priority_deinit'

I've already tried installing the libgnutls-dev package, and 
libcurl4-gnutls-dev. Any ideas?

uncomment the # in the GNUTLS makefile.

if it is not enough, try compiling libmicrohttpd with a configure --with-gnutls

I was able to follow the instructions in comment #5 to build openzwave control 
panel for the odroid C1, with the following caveats:

open-zwave
- no issues

libmicrohttpd
- needed to install 'autoconf'
- needed to run 'autoreconf -fi' per README
- needed to run './configure' per README (implied)
I bet the one already installed in the OS would be sufficient (it is not quite 
as new as the trunk, obviously).

openzwave-control-panel
- edited Makefile as follows:
  - uncommented the three Linux lines for LIBZWAVE, LIBUSB, LIBS
  - changed some definitions to deal with different library locations
    LIBMICROHTTPD := ../libmicrohttpd/src/microhttpd/.libs/libmicrohttpd.a
    LIBZWAVE := $(wildcard $(OPENZWAVE)/*.a)
- edited webserver.cpp
  - line 976, replaced first %x with %lx, replace 2nd and 3rd %x with %p.
- To run, you will need to symlink the open-zwave configuration files into the
control panel directory, e.g.
  ln -s ../open-zwave/config .
