17:26 <andreasc> Hi all, new here and not sure this is the right forum :) But I'm trying to use nmigen with a Numato Mimas V2, so I adapted the included Mimas (v1) file in nmigen_boards but can't make it work. When I run the build() method on my class, I get "missing 1 required positional argument: 'elaboratable'" even though I'm pretty sure I inherit from

17:26 <andreasc> Elaboratable. Any hints?

17:29 <jeanthom> Hi, what arguments are you giving to build()?

17:30 <andreasc> Just my Elaboratable module, so: NumatoMimasV2Platform.build(TestLEDModule()) in this case.... and TestLEDModule is defined as "class TestLEDModule(Elaboratable)"

17:30 <jeanthom> could you try NumatoMimasV2Platform().build(TestLEDModule()) instead?

17:31 <jeanthom> with the parenthesis next to NumatoMimasV2Platform

17:32 <andreasc> Oh yes, of course, that makes sense, of course I need the parenthesis! Now I get "can't instantiate abstract class ... with abstract method connectors", but I guess I'm missing to implement some abstract parameters.

17:34 <andreasc> Hmm, looks like device, package, and speed are abstract in xilinx_spartan_3_6.py, but I override those already...

17:36 <jeanthom> can you upload your TestLEDModule code somewhere (gist, pastebin)? There might be an issue with how you're trying to access your platform resources

17:39 <andreasc> https://pastebin.com/drrFB6vK

17:42 <jeanthom> thanks, that looks good to me

17:42 <jeanthom> could you upload NumatoMimasV2Platform?

17:43 <andreasc> https://pastebin.com/Es2iAw1m

17:43 <andreasc> Thanks a lot for checking!

17:44 <jeanthom> mmh, could you try adding an empty array for connectors?

17:44 <jeanthom> like connectors = []

17:45 <jeanthom> no worries :)

17:45 <andreasc> Wohoo!!!! That's it! Thank you sooo much :D Now it complains about required Xilinx ISE tools, so that means my code seems to work! Awesome!

17:46 <jeanthom> yay! now good luck figuring out how to install ISE on a modern Linux distro :D

17:47 <andreasc> Haha, I have ISE installed already (and toolchain working) so should be "easy" ;)

17:47 <tpw_rules> the hardest part of installing it for me was downloading it lol

17:48 <andreasc> Yeah, 6GB of stuff ;)

17:48 <jeanthom> I recall having tons of issues with licensing and libraries not working correctly

17:49 <tpw_rules> yeah it was finding the link and making the account and getting authorized and stuff

17:50 <jeanthom> a bit more complicated than that

17:50 <jeanthom> not overly complicated

17:50 <jeanthom> but when you're a newbie it's difficult

17:51 <jeanthom> they expect you to use a GUI software for activating ISE, and in my case it wouldn't work properly

17:51 <jeanthom> then I found out that you just had to download the license file and put it in the right place

18:10 <andreasc> Would have been awesome to have a fully open source toolchain for Xilinx Spartan FPGAs!
