Incomplete source

[agoode]

This is amazing! Thanks so much for releasing this. And thanks for having an unlocked bootloader!

Is it possible to get the rest of the source? It looks like only a few files are present. It would be fantastic to be able to build the firmware completely from source.

I am interested in making this work with gcc, so that would be a big help.

Even a few more source files would be helpful, since there will likely be some reimplementation needed in any case.

Hi Adam, thanks for getting in touch! Unfortunately Launchpad S makes use of some library code that we currently do not intend to release. Other parts were left as object files because we wanted to keep things simple, so we could potentially release the source for them.

I'd be surprised if you could build without dependency on RKit-ARM, but you should be able to compile with gcc as (I think) that's what Ride7 does (download it, that will give you somewhere to start).

What are you hoping to achieve other than a gcc build - are you looking to modify the firmware in a particular way?

Cheers,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks for looking into this. I understand that the library code can't be released, but I would love to see the source of everything that you can release.

There is nothing in particular that I need it for, just that I am a big fan of the Launchpad (and the well-written manuals) and have done plenty of work on microcontroller ARM with gcc. I think it would be a fun project to get a full firmware build with totally free source and toolchain, and anything you can do to help would improve my chances. Thanks again!
