Steps to build and install BOSSA

[rod6214]

Hi everyone, where do i find the instructions to build BOSSA repository in Linux and Windows?

These steps works fine for me:
Distro: Linux ubuntu 20.04 lts.

Dependencies:

1. sudo apt-get install build-essential
2. sudo apt-get install libwxbase3.0-dev
3. sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev
4. sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0-dev
5. sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev

Go to BOSSA directory and use the following commands:

• make install

there is also a make target for just the command line version that has less dependencies
make bossac

I couldnt get this setup to work.
This is the error:
APPLET WordCopyArm
make: ./appletgen: Command not found
make: *** [Makefile:252: src/WordCopyArm.cpp] Error 127

I edited the files in windows and transferred to linux causing issues. When I git cloned from linux all worked well.

This is how I build it on Windows.

I can't seem to compile for Windows. Can anyone compile with added support for D21G17D variant?

A couple of us managed to compile this in Windows and have documented the process on the Arduino forum in case it is helpful: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/creating-a-custom-samd-bootloader-and-arduino-board/1094588/6
