Hi,

when you type

   make AIRCRAFT=AC xxx.upload

xxx is the name of a target which should appear in the makefile section of
the airframe file of aircraft AC.

In your example, microjet5.xml contains only the targets ap and sim.
demo.xml airframe is the only airframe to contain the demo3 target

Hi Antoine,

Did you ever compile motor_bench? It seems that is another
non-aircraft that gets compiled as an airframe.

Just to clarify where I'm at:
I changed all occurrences of demo_conf in demo.xml to tiny_2_1 and
added this section to conf.xml:
  <aircraft
    name="demo"
    ac_id="5"
    airframe="airframes/microjet5.xml"
    radio="radios/cockpitMM.xml"
    telemetry="telemetry/default.xml"
    flight_plan="flight_plans/basic.xml"
    settings="settings/basic.xml"
  />

then I do:
make AIRCRAFT=demo demo3.compile

fails:

Heeelp! Please.

 that's the correct way and the expected result - demo1 does nothing

 you can see that from sw/airborne/main_demo1.c

 #include "std.h"


 int main( void ) {
  while(1) {

  }
  return 0;
 }

 and the comment in conf/airframe/demo.xml ( simple emtpy demo )




 demo2 is the one that blinks a led ( hardware init ( pll ), system time and 
LEDs
 )

 so, change the line
 demo2.CFLAGS += -DCONFIG=\"conf_demo.h\"   (in conf/airframe/demo.xml)
 to
 demo2.CFLAGS += -DCONFIG=\"tiny_2_1.h"

 and you should be good

 Not sure what you are trying to do here...

 I agree that our code and Makefile generation system might seem a little
 complicated at first but it's not so difficult

 when you type
 make AIRCRAFT=Foo a_target.compile
 the makefile looks for an entry (aka aircraft) named Foo in conf/conf.xml
 This entry will contain

 -1 a number of files used to generate code, like for example the 
characteristics
 of the rc transmitter you are using, the rate of periodic telemetry messages 
you
 want, the variables you want to be able to adjust and your flight plan. It
 "compiles" those files into C code. I will go deeper into this at a later time,
 but having static C code generated instead of doing all this configuration at
 runtime allows for better effiency and safety

 -2 a file called airframe ( conf/airframes/demo.xml ) in your case
 This file is also "compiled" to produce both a header ( var/Foo/airframe.h ) 
and
 a Makefile (var/Foo/Makefile.ac )

 The header will contain all the parameters specific to your particular airplane
 ( where did you connect your peripherals, their calibration values, etc... )
 Some of those parameters only depends on the specific hardware. For example on
 the tiny, the servo driver is soldered on the board, so it will always be
 connected to the same IOs of the processor. To avoid repeating that in every
 aircraft, a specific header for each supported hardware can be created and
 included. This is this -DONFIG="somefile". Those files are stored in
 conf/autopilot

 This doesn't sound very clear.. I'll attempt a better explanation later

 Good luck with the demos
