newt build error
Hi dev,
For my environment I'm running Ubuntu 16.x in a VMWare environment under Windows 7. I also have Go 1.6 installed and working.
The problem is that I've been trying to do a native Linux install of newt and I get a strange Go? error, which unfortunately prevents some executables from being build:
agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt$ go get
# mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/syscfg
syscfg/syscfg.go:923: constant 4294967295 overflows int

agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt$ cd $GOPATH
agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go$ ls

agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go/bin$
Unfortunately, Go is Greek to me, although it might be interesting to figure out, I was hoping to simply test drive things on a nRF52832 Preview DK. On an aside do you know if anyone has tried using the newly released BLE 5 nRF52840 Preview DK?
Any help getting my setup going would be appreciated.
Thanks,
ALan

Hi Fabio,
Dang it I believe that is correct. I was going to use a VirtualBox with Xbuntu that I have at home, but IT had set this computer up for typical developer use within the company.
I guess I'll give it a try at home - over the holidays... Thanks for the help.
Cheers,
ALan

Alan,
Your Ubuntu is i686 right? That would make sense because 0xffffffff is really too big for an int (in 32 bit systems). I guess everyone has been developing newt on 64 bit systems (OSX or Linux x86_64).

Hi Sterling,
BTW Thanks for the quick response.
agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt$ git status
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
nothing to commit, working directory clean
agraves@agravesLNXPV3997:~/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt$ go version
go version go1.6.2 linux/386
It looks like my go version is a bit behind yours. Might that be a problem?
Cheers,
ALan

Hi Alan,
What go version are you using? Also, what branch is the mynewt source that you’re trying to compile?
For me:
$ pwd

$ git status

$ go version
go version go1.7.4 darwin/amd64

We’ve dropped support in mynewt for the PDK, you need the full DK in order to get it up and running. We have not yet supported the nRF52840 PDK, but the plan is for me to do it over the holidays, so early Jan we should have something working. There are a couple of errata that need to be copied over from the nordic DK, it doesn’t look like a huge job.
Best,
Sterling

Hi Alan,
What go version are you using? Also, what branch is the mynewt source
that you’re trying to compile?
For me:
$ pwd
/Users/sterling/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt
$ git status
On branch develop
<snip>
$ go version
go version go1.7.4 darwin/amd64
$
We’ve dropped support in mynewt for the PDK, you need the full DK in
order to get it up and running. We have not yet supported the nRF52840
PDK, but the plan is for me to do it over the holidays, so early Jan we
should have something working. There are a couple of errata that need
to be copied over from the nordic DK, it doesn’t look like a huge job.
Best,
Sterling
ps: These are my parameters — but I’m doing development, don’t
worry if they differ from yours — I’ll try and reproduce with your
setup.

Hi Sterling,
Thanks that's good to hear.
I got the build working under the virtualized xubuntu environment, however the USB SWD debugger on the Nordic board kept crashing my PC. I'm hoping that the PC MB is the source of the blue screens I've been getting, at least I'll find out once Dell replaces it...
I'm curious if anyone else is using a VM for developing on the Nordic or other board?
BTW As a test I repeated everything on a dedicated xubuntu machine without any issues, including download to flash and working with JLinkExe.
ALan
