Compiling custom firmware with Bluetooth support

[Jacob Albert]

My custom chipkit firmware compiles fine, but I never see the bluetooth support int he final compile options. Also I don't see UART=1 in the documentation compile options, but it's mentioned in the bluetooth docs. Not sure if they are deprecated or not.

Is this not needed any longer? Should a default "fab chipkit build" include bluetooth? What else do I need to compile?

Latest build 

Compiled with options:

-      CHIPKIT             = PLATFORM

-      1                   = BOOTLOADER

-      0                   = DEBUG

-      0                   = DEFAULT_METRICS_STATUS

-      1                   = DEFAULT_ALLOW_RAW_WRITE_USB

-      0                   = DEFAULT_ALLOW_RAW_WRITE_UART

-      0                   = DEFAULT_ALLOW_RAW_WRITE_NETWORK

-      OFF                 = DEFAULT_LOGGING_OUTPUT

-      JSON                = DEFAULT_OUTPUT_FORMAT

-      0                   = DEFAULT_EMULATED_DATA_STATUS

-      SILENT_CAN          = DEFAULT_POWER_MANAGEMENT

-      1                   = DEFAULT_USB_PRODUCT_ID

-      0                   = DEFAULT_CAN_ACK_STATUS

-      1                   = DEFAULT_OBD2_BUS

-      0                   = DEFAULT_RECURRING_OBD2_REQUESTS_STATUS

-------------------------

Compiled successfully for CHIPKIT running under a bootloader.

I assume you're talking about UART=1 from here: http://chipkit-vi.openxcplatform.com/bluetooth/hardware.html.

Yes, that is a deprecated option and no longer in the Makefile/fabfile.py. I would recommend following the info here: http://vi-firmware.openxcplatform.com/en/master/platforms/max32.html#uart

Is the bluetooth working for you? Based on your later post, I assume that it is.
