Hi drbarryh
This post is referring to your second post about your experience with AN985.
although it usually involved some manual hacking to add paths to be able to get the Ashling IDE to be able to locate the gcc toolchain and a couple of header files for example.
I also needed to add a reference to the BSP from the APP so that the project gets glued together correctly.
I believe you are encountering this issue, which the gcc toolchain & BSP header file is not found. Here is the related KDB - Why does Ashling* RiscFree* IDE for Altera* FPGA software reports unresolved inclusion warnings, despite a successful build of Nios® V processor software project? | Altera Community - 349936
the tutorial is not using the niosv-app step
It is found in Step 4 of the link - https://docs.altera.com/r/docs/784468/current/an-985-nios-v-processor-tutorial/creating-an-application-project-files
Can you share the link of the document without Step 4 - niosv-app?
a) cannot find the GCC compiler tools
Can you share a picture of the error? Will bring this to Ashling for improvement.
Although I didn't have a full picture of the error, I think this workaround might help - run the IDE in niosv-shell.
b) cannot find many of the header files in the main C application.
I believe it is referring to the first issue in this post.
