Hi. When try to create a project in TouchGFX 4.10.0 Designer, an error occurs:

make -f simulator/gcc/Makefile assets -j10

touchgfx update_project --project-file=../EWARM/STM32F746G-DISCO.ewp --gui-group-name=Application/User/TouchGFX/gui --generated-group-name=Application/User/TouchGFX/generated && touchgfx update_project --project-file=simulator/msvs/Application.vcxproj && ruby updateMXProj.rb

Unable to launch simulator

Hi @Hosting​,

As​ @hansd56​ says IF you created this project with CubeIDE the .touchgfx file has a bad command in it and you should remove it completely (also works, but with warnings) or write some "echo" expression like suggested (then the designer won't complain).

In any case, if you do not have either of the projects referenced in the post generate command, it will also fail, so check that

Hi @Hosting​,

Any update on your end? Did you try modifying the post generate command?

Hello. I noticed, application gets errors when you are active in the application window during code generation or do not exit the application when you close the laptop.

Restarting your laptop solves the problem.

Thank you for your attention to the problem and desire to help.

Hi @Hosting​,

Hmm, i'm not sure i'm completely satisfied :) Are you?

So far, I have to do this:

  • I close Visual Studio and compile the project.
  • I close TouchGFX if I close the laptop.
  • I do not switch Windows/widgets in the time of the compilation/simulation.

Fulfilling these conditions ensures stable operation.

It's still a strange phenomenon that we will try to investigate internally. It doesn't happen for me, for instance.

Thanks
