15.1.3 Installing WinAVR
WinAVR is a complete open source Windows based installation of the GNU GCC compiler and tool chain that integrates
into the installation of AVR Studio. You can find out more here:
We are very lucky to have this, without it, we would have to use a 3
hand, it’s GNU-GCC based which means very little support and documentation written by paid professionals, so it’s a
compromise. As mentioned before WinAVR integrates into AVR Studio giving AVR Studio C/C++ support (along with the
GCC assembler named “GAS”). Before WinAVR you could still get AVR processor GCC support, but you would have to
do a lot of work to accomplish this, thus the installer for WinAVR performs all kinds of really complex and tedious setup
tasks and hides all the complexity from you.
With that in mind, let’s begin the installation. The latest WinAVR installer is located on the DVD here:
Of course, you can always download the very latest copy to the minute from the Source Forge site, but once again, let’s
just use the one on the DVD-ROM, so we both have the exact same software. You can update in the future once you
have everything working. Once you have located the installation file, go ahead and launch it, you will see the language
splash screen as shown in Figure 15.11 below (ignore the version differences from our screen shots to the latest copy on
the DVD).
