Loading hex files

[skwee]

I understand that I can execute snippets with the Arduinosim. Is there a way to load a compiled hex file ?
or
I have a project with a handfull of c files. how can i simulate them with Arduinosim ?
Thanks Steve

I'm also interested by this question, I allow myself a small ping at @ponty @Premik @SebastianZug, please =]

How could be launched the Arduino folder of a "sketch"? (an Arduino project)

[Premik]

There was some patch merged in the past. The ArduinSim now accepts external_elf as the last argument of the init. I think you can just provide a .hex or .axf file name there.

And what about a regular folder?

[Premik]

I pressume a regular folder is an Arduino project. If you have multiple files I'm not sure how to do it. I'd personally just compile the sources using Arduino or avr-gcc separately and only simulate the compiled files.

But you might check the pyavrutils.arduino.Arduino class of the PyAvrUtils project directly. It is used by pysimavr internally. Perhaps it is able to compile multiple files.

I searched how to generate a .hex file from the Arduino IDE and it's far more easy than I thought! I just followed this steps http://stackoverflow.com/a/11654333

Thank you, I'll try the external_elf parameter
