µCL Downloads

µCL is currently supported on two platforms -- Linux® and and a couple of the more recent operating systems from Microsoft®. Hopefully, the MacOS® platform will also be supported in the near future. Before downloading the µCL system, please read and understand the µCL license.

2.1 Linux

1. Create an µCL directory
Please create a directory to store everything in. For example,
mkdir -p ~/downloads/ucl
2. Download ucl_linux_0.94b.tar.gz
Please download the file ucl_linux_0.94b.tar.gz. For example:
	    cd ~/downloads/ucl
	    wget http://gramlich.net/projects/ucl/releases/ucl_linux_0.94b.tar.gz
	    							
3. Unpack ucl_linux_0.94b.tar.gz
Unpack the code from ucl_linux_0.94b.tar.gz. For example:
gunzip -c lin_ucl.tar.gz | tar xvf -
The code will unpacked into a versioned directory with the name ucl_0.94b.
4. Put the versioned directory into your path
Put the directory into your path:
export PATH=$PATH:~/downloads/ucl/ucl_0.94b
5. Start the µCL IDE Start the µCL IDE by typing:
uclide
6. Edit the properties
Right click on [Options] => [Properties...] to bring up the property sheet. Edit toe compiler property to point to where the compiler is installed (e.g. ~/downloads/ucl/ucl_0.94b/ If communicatons ports that you are using to talk to your microcontroller is not /dev/ttyS1:, edit the Comm. Port property. When you are done, click on [Save] followed by [Close].
That is it.

2.2 Microsoft Operating Systems

The two Microsoft operating systems that are supported are Windows 2000 and Windows XP. As of µCL release 0.94b, it is no longer necessary to download cywin.dll (if you do not know the joys of downloading this library, consider yourself lucky!) Here are the remaining necessary steps:

1. Create an µCL folder
Create a folder for the µCL files. We recommend that the folder be placed at C:/uCL.
2. Download ucl_winos_0.94b.zip
The µCL software comes as a single file called ucl_winos_0.94b.zip. It is available from the following location:
http://gramlich.net/projects/ucl/releases/ucl_winos_0.94b.zip
Please download the file and store it someplace like C:\Downloads.
3. Unpack ucl_winos_0.94b.zip
Extract ucl_winos_0.94b.zip using your favorite unzipper program. The extraction will create a sub folder called ucl_0.94b and store all of the files there. We recommend that you extract the contents into the you created in the first step (i.e. C:\uCL.)
4. Create a short cut
Single click on the file uclide.exe to select it. Now click on the right mouse button and select [Create Short Cut]. Drag and drop the created short cut and place it somewhere on desktop.
5. Start the development environment
Double click on your previously created short cut to get it started. The µCL integrated development environment should pop up.
6. Edit the properties
Right click on [Options] => [Properties...] to bring up the property sheet. If you did not put the compiler in C:/uCL, edit the compiler property. If communicatons ports that you are using to talk to your microcontroller is no Com1:, edit the Comm. Port property. When you are done, click on [Save] followed by [Close].
You should be ready to go.
