I am doing my first arduino project using the tutorial here:

http://www.sparkfun.com/tutorials/160

Have moved the Fat libraries to /usr/share/arduino/libraries/FAT/

When trying to compile the SD_WAV_Playback in the arduino IDE I get the following errors:

Code: Select all

/usr/share/arduino/libraries/FAT/fat.c: In function ‘fat_append_clusters’:

/usr/share/arduino/libraries/FAT/fat.c:508: error: ‘for’ loop initial declaration used outside C99 mode

/usr/share/arduino/libraries/FAT/fat.c:2288: error: ‘for’ loop initial declaration used outside C99 mode

Is there a way to enable c99 mode for gcc from within the arduino IDE? Are there any fixes available for this?

Using Arduino IDE 0018 (the one available in the ubuntu repositories)

Any luck resolving this? I just ran into it my self. The obvious fix is to move the variable declarations outside of the for statement, however being able to enable C99 would probably avoid future problems.

No luck at all, however I haven't tried to do this in a while
