problem with the stand alone LWIP

Hello all,

I downloaded the stand alone Lwip from the following link:

http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=949 (http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=949)

and tried it in my NiosII IDE 6.0 environment. When I create a new project out of its template, I was alerted that the template is incompatible for the 6.0 version IDE.

When I tried to build the project, many errors appeared and claiming that the following three files are missing:

# include "lwip/debug.h"# include "lwip/stats.h"# include "lwip/tcp.h"

I searched the entire project folder and found these three files in the folder of

/lwip_web_server_0/lwip-0.7.1/src/include/lwip/

I tried to copy the files into the "apps" folder but this does not help.

Since I cannot post this question on the above link nor can I contact the author directly, I post it here, hoping somebody who have used this stand alone lwip stack could give me some suggestion.

Thank you!!

Mason

    Standalone LWIP works just fine with 6.0, I just downloaded and used it last week. Not sure what&#39;s causing your errors...the steps I took were:

    1) Copy the LWIP web server project to the Nios project directory.

    2) Replaced the LAN91C111&#39;s HAL folder with the one in the zip.

    3) Created a new standalone LWIP web server project.

    4) Added the four build paths as described in the readme file.

    Hi All,

    Lwip standalone version can run in Nios2 IDE6.0. following is my stage for reference.

    1. unzip lwip-v1.1.zip

    2. copy sopc_builder/components/altera_avalon_lan91c111 to kits/nios2_60/components

    3. use setup.exe to install package into kits/nios2_60/components

    4. move kits/nios2_60/components/altera_avalon_lan91c111 to sopc_builder/components

    5. Use IDE to create a blank application project and move all files from lwip_web_server folder to the blank application project

    6. remove .cdtbuild and added the four build paths as described in the readme file from c/c++ build of application project.

    7. then, compile the project.

    8. IDE will respond a lot of error as following in system library.

    Regards
