Other B4R v4.00 is available for download

[Erel]

I'm happy to release a new version of B4R. This update adds support for the latest version of Arduino IDE.
It is also the first 64 bit version of B4R.

Download link: https://www.b4x.com/b4r.html

Installation instructions:

1. Install latest version of Arduino IDE: https://www.arduino.cc/en/software
2. Install Arduino CLI (command line interface): https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_latest_Windows_64bit.msi
3. B4R - Tools - Configure Paths: configure the path to arduino-cli.exe and javac. Java 8+ is supported.
4. Open the board manager and select the board.

Thanks, Erel !
No solution now with empty "Objects\bin" result folder ?

 

[Erel]

No. It is related to a change in the way the Arduino compiler works. The command lines are logged so you can run them manually and add --build-path https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/0.33/commands/arduino-cli_compile/
It will work with some types of boards and will fail with others.

Thanks for the update.
The separate installation of Arduino-CLI is no longer necessary from IDE 2.x.
The arduino-cli.exe is already present in the subdirectory "...\Arduino IDE\resources\app\lib\backend\resources".

 

[Erel]

It is actually here on my installation: C:\Program Files\Arduino IDE\resources\app\node_modules\arduino-ide-extension\build

For now I will keep the instructions as-is. You can of course use the internal one.

Hi Erel, I'm having a problem with this version of b4r. I'm getting "The given key was not present in the dictionary" when I try to select the board

 

[Erel]

1. Can you post a screenshot?
2. Please enable IDE logs as explained here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/intermittent-error-message.9047/post-50478
See if there is more information there.

You are not using the beta version, right?

 

[juventino883]

Hi Erel, I had to uninstall everything and go back to the previous version,

You are not using the beta version, right?

I downloaded and installed all the files on the first post of this thread.

let me install again and I will upload the screenshot and logs.

the path to the CLI isnt stored, i can point to the CLI, but next time i open B4r it's gone

note: in version 3.90 there is a OK button...

 

[MaFu]

Enlarge the dialog with the mouse in the lower right corner and you will see the buttons.

Hi Erel, I'm having a problem with this version of b4r. I'm getting "The given key was not present in the dictionary" when I try to select the board

This message is displayed only if there is no board information downloaded in Arduino IDE. Once you download the boards Arduino/ESP32/ESP8266/STM32 , the message is no longer displayed.

I had the same problem, just pinch the bottom with your mouse and drag it down, the buttons are there, but are out of the bottom margin

Hi @Erel, Today I have reintalled the new version and it is working now.

@rbghongade yes probably was that, I remember that I have installed the new version of arduino IDE and the board information was not there.

Thank you both for your help.

I'm happy to release a new version of B4R. This update adds support for the latest version of Arduino IDE.
It is also the first 64 bit version of B4R.

Download link: https://www.b4x.com/b4r.html

Installation instructions:

1. Install latest version of Arduino IDE: https://www.arduino.cc/en/software
2. Install Arduino CLI (command line interface): https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_latest_Windows_64bit.msi
3. B4R - Tools - Configure Paths: configure the path to arduino-cli.exe and javac. Java 8+ is supported.
4. Open the board manager and select the board.

Hi
I installed B4R ver 4.00
sometimes board selector window does not work right and dont show Arduino boards list for select.(It shows the list as empty)
so I must reinstall B4R ver 39.0.0 and use together.

You are obviously doing something 100% incorrectly. I take it that you've added the .json extensions for adding more boards, and that you've checked the board manager for the latest Arduino IDE

Have you followed Erel's instructions to the letter, as B4R V4.0 works 100% perfect for me and it includes all the boards that are listed in the Arduino IDE

Reaf Erel's instructions carefully below and give it another go.

Installation instructions:

1. Install latest version of Arduino IDE: https://www.arduino.cc/en/software
2. Install Arduino CLI (command line interface): https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_latest_Windows_64bit.msi
3. B4R - Tools - Configure Paths: configure the path to arduino-cli.exe and javac. Java 8+ is supported.
4. Open the board manager and select the board.

I followed Erel's instructions and installed B4R v4.0 and the latest B4J v9.80, with OpenJDK 14 + OpenJFX 14
Everything works for me.

 

[candide]

after installation of Arduino 2.2.1 + Arduino Cli + B4R 4.00, compilation is working, transfert to board is working, init of board is OK, but after i have an error at log start and i cannot connect to esp32 board. i have error "file not found"
i tested with esp8266 and it is the same
if i connect Termite terminal to port 5 (in my case), i can connect to the board and i have the log.

How to explain ???

Follow the installation instructions and fill at least 2 first fields: arduino-cli.exe and Javac.exe
