This guide will compile [[OpenOCD]] {{{3}}} for Ubuntu 10.04 with the {{{{{2}}}_NAME_CAPS}} driver library, for use with the TinCanTools Flyswatter, Flyswatter2, and Flyswatter3. Version {{{3}}} is the version of OpenOCD currently in development. For instructions on compiling with the most recent release code, see [[Compiling OpenOCD Linux]].

==OpenOCD 0.6.0 vs the 0.5.0 Release==

This guide uses the most recent version of the OpenOCD source currently in development. Unlike the 0.5.0 release the development version includes support for the Flyswatter2 and Flyswatter3, so you won't need to download or apply a patch before compiling. However, the development code is subject to change at any time. If you encounter problems with this option, try the OpenOCD 0.5.0 instructions in [[Compiling OpenOCD Linux]] instead.

==Installing Packages==

You will need to install several packages to compile and run [[OpenOCD]]. Open a terminal window ('''Applications menu > Accessories > Terminal''') and type:

sudo apt-get install libtool autoconf texinfo libusb-dev

If you prefer to compile libusb yourself, you can find the source at http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/libusb-1.0/.

==Downloading and Compiling libFTDI==

libFTDI is an open source library that enables you to talk to FTDI chips like: FT232BM, FT245BM, FT245R, FT2232C, FT2232D and FT2232H. You will need libFTDI to compile [[OpenOCD]]. Download '''libftdi-{{{{{2}}}_VERNUM}}.tar.gz''' from:
http://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi/download.php
and extract it to your home directory ('''/home/USERNAME''', replacing USERNAME with your username).

Navigate to '''home/USERNAME/libftdi-{{{{{2}}}_VERNUM}}/src''', and '''copy ftdi.h''' '''to your /usr/include''' directory. Then create a symbolic link to ftdi.h in '''/usr/local/include'''. In the terminal window:

cd ~/libftdi-{{{{{2}}}_VERNUM}}/src
sudo cp ftdi.h /usr/include
cd /usr/local/include
sudo ln -s /usr/include/ftdi.h ftdi.h

Return to your '''libftdi-{{{{{2}}}_VERNUM}}''' directory and compile.

cd ~/libftdi-{{{{{2}}}_VERNUM}}
./configure
make
sudo make install

This will install the necessary library files to '''/usr/local/lib'''. Navigate to '''/usr/lib''' and create symbolic links to the new files.

cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libftdi.a libftdi.a
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libftdi.la libftdi.la
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/{{LIBFTDI_SO_VER}} {{LIBFTDI_SO_VER}}
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/{{LIBFTDI_SO_VER}} libftdi.so
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/{{LIBFTDI_SO_VER}} libftdi.so.1

==Downloading OpenOCD==

Git is version control software distributed with Ubuntu. You can use git to download the current development code from the OpenOCD git repository at sourceforge.net. In the terminal window, navigate to your home directory and make sure you don't already have a directory there named '''openocd/'''. (Downloading with git will create a directory called '''openocd/''' containing the OpenOCD source. If you already have a directory called '''openocd/''' either rename it or navigate to a different directory before you proceed.) Then download OpenOCD with the following command:

cd ~
git clone git://openocd.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/openocd/openocd

There should now be a folder in your home directory called '''openocd/.'''

==Compiling OpenOCD==

In the terminal window, navigate to the new folder containing the [[OpenOCD]] source and compile as follows.

cd ~/openocd
sudo ./bootstrap
sudo ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-werror --enable-ft2232_libftdi
sudo make
sudo make install

Navigate to '''/home/USERNAME/openocd/src''' to find the '''openocd''' binary. You will need superuser privileges (the ''sudo'' command) to run [[OpenOCD]].

==Preparing to Run OpenOCD==

You can run openocd from '''/home/USERNAME/openocd/src''', but you may encounter problems with configuration files. For a more in-depth discussion of these issues, see [[OpenOCD Config File Paths]]. This guide recommends that you create a new directory containing OpenOCD and its config files.

Create a new directory in '''/home/USERNAME''' called '''openocd-bin''', and copy the '''openocd''' binary and the contents of '''/home/USERNAME/openocd/tcl''' to the new directory. You can do this from the terminal window with the collowing commands:

cd ~
mkdir openocd-bin
cd ~/openocd/tcl
cp -r * ~/openocd-bin
cd ~/openocd/src
cp openocd ~/openocd-bin

'''openocd-bin''' should now contain the following files and subdirectories:

board
chip
cpld
cpu
openocd
interface
target
test
bitsbytes.tcl
mem_helper.tcl
memory.tcl
mmr_helpers.tcl

You can now run [[OpenOCD]] from '''/home/USERNAME/openocd-bin'''. To get started running OpenOCD, see [[Running OpenOCD on Linux]].
