VM dedicated to compiling Deviation

tried to flash my devo12s with fresh code but something is wrong with the script i think.
the complete text is missing on the screen after powering up the tx.
i noticed that the devo12_lib.dfu is now 897KB
before changing the deviation script it was 1441KB

tested with PBs and RBEs repo

Just tested, my generated LIB has 1441KB. Cannot test further as I don't have a devo12

I just fixed a bug, please do
And try again.

Works like a charm
Thanx

Today i tried to compile from RBEs Repo for my Devo 12
i get the message:

+ checking string list length for devo8
make: *** [filesystem/devo8/models/model30.ini] Error 1
<< Error compiling sources, aborting.

I tried:
Deleting local repo
deviation setup
hg pull
hg update
deviation self-update

Nothing helps

Thanks for your help

Hello Wene,
as you will have expected I have no problems compiling from my repo I get this message too but this is because I write protected some of the ini-files so make can not write them.
The error message is a little bit misleading. For some reason make tells about "[filesystem/devo8/models/model30.ini]" if anything in a greater block of code goes wrong. PB has implemented the note with the string length so we can differentiate between problems while creating the file system and such concerning the strings.
The string list length checking is important to make sure that the resources are not over-provisioned (needed for the translation table). It is possible that I have used more strings in the last code changes so the limit is exceeded.
I will take a look in the evening. But I would assume the error is caused by my code rather than by the build machine.

Will look into it when I have some free time (at work atm).

What I thought: I have ignored the error message because I get it every time build a new version (and I do this dozens times a day...). But my code uses 321 strings which shall be translated while only 320 are allowed.
If you want to workaround: in src/config/language.c line 33 the value of '#define MAX_STRINGS 320' to a higher value (321 should suffice) and compile again. I tested it out - it will not have side effects.
I filed an issue at bitbucket for this and will fix it in the evening.

EDIT: sbstnp, I just have seen your message. Nothing to do for you.

No problem

I increased the number of strings to 330. It compiles now without ANY error

Hi, I am a newbie in this forum. Now I met problem to download VM machine (.OVA). It was stopped while around 2M Bytes. Where can I get it except the original web address? Or I did something wrong? Thanks

No reason why it shouldn't work. The host has pretty good speed too. I say try again and if you still have problems I'll figure out a way to host it someplace else as well.

Hi sbstnp, Thanks for helping. I try many times and get same problem. I have tryed both IE and Chrome to download but both failed. I also try to turn the proxy off but same. Is there another way to download it? Thanks

No, not yet sorry. I'm sure it's not a problem with my host, since I've been able to download it from my hotel room and it worked.

Tonight I have a flight back home and over the weekend I'll try to find a solution for you.

Well noted, Thanks.

Thanks for sbntnp kindly helping. It is working now. I have got it finally.

Happy to hear it:)

Hello, I just got the vm working in hyper-v, my preference. I am able to build successfully. So far I have built the reg deviation, PB's new-gui, and RBE's Devo 12 widescreen build.

Problem in all cases when I flash the Devo12:



Seems there is fonts problem.. Any ideas?

You must flash the library too (devo12-lib.dfu, in the library tab of dfuse). It contains the fonts and more.

Sorry should have said, I did flash the lib-devo12 also. as well tried flashing the lib included in the filesystem.zip "devo12-lib.dfu"

Same prob
