Encounter error msg below when compile/build even with simple block. Please advice


Error building Real-Time Workshop target for block diagram 'try3'. MATLAB error message:
Error using ==> genMakefileAndBuild at 1070
Error(s) encountered while building model "try3".

Hi, could you upload on the forum the simulink file that generate that error ?

[aunanshi@yahoo.com]

Thanks for the reply. Me actually trying "my first example" as illustrated in example.

Hi Aunanshi

The mdl file 'try3.mdl' compile successfully on my system. Could you provide more details on the error : Which matlab version are you using, Is real time workshop and Real Time Workshop Embedded Coder installed on your system, Which version of the C30 compiler are you using ; Is this the complete error message ? In which directory is it installed ...

Also, you could browse this forum; some topics are about the installation of the blockset. If you do not find a solution, please ask again.

error msg as above.

me using matlab 7.5.0 (R2007b)
MPLAB_C30_v3_02-studentEdition <== could this be the problem, if yes where can get usable version(Free or trial version) ?

I also saw forum posted by Mr.Peter. You replying "The toolbox must not be installed in the matlab directory or subdirectory. Make sure you did not install the toolbox inside the matlab directory or sudirectory ! " which toolbox are you refering to?

Regards,
Nanshi

Hi Nanshi,

MPLAB_C30_v3_02-studentEdition <== could this be the problem, if yes where can get usable version (Free or trial version) ?

This is not the problem: the student version of the C30_V3_02 work with the dsPIC blockset !

I also saw forum posted by Mr.Peter. You replying "The toolbox must not be installed in the matlab directory or subdirectory. Make sure you did not install the toolbox inside the matlab directory or subdirectory !" which toolbox are you refering to?

I am refering to the dsPIC blockset only. The one you download from this website.

sumedhk get similar error : a missing gld file was reported. could you try the solution explained on the topic : Issues in dsPIC 30f6014 compiling : Missing gld & DCI Periph :

rtw_alt_pathname('C:\Program Files\Microchip\MPLAB C30\support\gld')
If you do not get C:\PROGRA~1\MICROC~1\MPLABC~1, you will have to change the short path in Simulink :
Simulation ==> Configuration Parameters ==> Real-Time Workshop ==> DsPIC options

Let me know then...

[aunanshi@yahoo.com]

Hi Lubin,
Compile successful after changed MPLABC~1 to MPLABC~2, all 6 of them from
Simulation ==> Configuration Parameters ==> Real-Time Workshop ==> DsPIC options

Thanks a lot!!!

I am having the same problem but the previous fix is not working. I'm using the 2007b matlab and have rtw and rtw embedded installed. I get the error as follows

Error building Real-Time Workshop target for block diagram 'try1'. MATLAB error message:
Error using ==> genMakefileAndBuild at 1070
Error(s) encountered while building model "try1".

It may be important to note that I am running win7 64-bit but I am working with a 32-bit matlab. It is also important to note that my matlab is installed in c:/program files (x86)/... The following is the paths that I have where the problem may lie. Thank you for any help. I also don't know why there is four different path directories for the 5th path (ldlibpic)

(this order below) Gmake file/optimisation/ldflags/ldpictype/ldlibpic/picincludes/picref/compiler path

C:\PROGRA~2\MATLAB\R2007b\bin\win32\gmake

thanks for any help!

Hi,

try to place the yellow block 'configuration of the model' from the dsPIC library on your model and dbl click on it. It may solve few problems. (anyway, this block will be improved in the next blockset version, not published yet)
If problem is not solved,

Check all your path. Copy-past repertory with ~1 in a file browser to see if that directory exist. If not, try to replace ~1 by ~2 and so on until you find the correct directory.

It should not be a problem to use matlab 32bits on windows 64 bits. I successfully tested this configuration.

I tried the things you said to no avail. First off whenever I make changes and try them, when I go back to the dsPIC path options, they are all defaulted back to their original paths. Secondly, I checked them and only one is path is broken as seen below.

-T C:\PROGRA~2\MICROC~1\MPLABC~2\support\dsPIC30F\gld\p30f4011.gld

should infact be

-T C:\PROGRA~2\MICROC~1\MPLABC~2\support/gld\p30f4011.gld

I checked with another users comment and tried this command also

rtw_alt_pathname('C:\PROGRA~2\MICROC~1\MPLABC~2\support\gld\')

but in the command window it said this which leads me to believe that is not the problem. It also says this below when I double click the configure model button.

Thanks a lot though for the quick reply

edit: I should also note that I only need the hex file which I will then upload to the pickit2. Just wondering if that may simplify the process by getting rid of the c code files.

Current version (V3.2b) has a problem here : the path is not updated properly and the error comes back. I'll send an updated verision by email for testing. Let me know if that's Ok.

[bassplayer142]

Unfortunately it still gives the same error. Although the path problem you talked about did disappear. This is what the end of the command prompt says when it errors out.

I have also attached the model I was using. thanks!

[LubinKerhuel]

Hello,

I could not reproduce that bug.
Thus, it may be your version of the C30 compiler. Which version are you using ? Could you update it with the latest version from the microchip website ?
