Hello,
I have a problem setting partition memory files.
The objective is to create a project where I can choose between different hardware systems using "menu config tool". Each system will have a different memory size. This is why is important to select partition memory file.
Right now I am using "idf.py menuconfig" which let me select the file under "Partition Table". I would like to be able to make a menu that lets me choose hardware 1 and directly select the proper memory file without modifying parition_table component. The main problem is that I need to modify the variables that use partition_table component after the variables are set in "idf.py menuconfig" but before the component partition_table component starts executing.
As a workaround is it possible to set de sdkconfig file in the cmake but only before menuconfig variable where parsed so it is not a proper solution neither.
I am not sure if it is possible or not. Could you give me a clue on how to achieve it?
Kind regards.

Re: Memory definition on automatic build system
Hi gusa86,
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way in Kconfig to set a specific value of string option (CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_CUSTOM_FILENAME) in Kconfig based on a value of a choice option (e.g. CONFIG_MY_HARDWARE_TYPE).
It's not exactly the same solution as you are looking for, but if you can consider specifying the hardware type from the command line rather than menuconfig, this example project demonstrates how to do this: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... lti_config.

Re: Memory definition on automatic build system
Thank you for your fast reply ESP_igrr,
I have been thinking about different solutions:
I tried setting CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_CUSTOM_FILENAME in CMakeList.txt after and before calling with any success:
Second solution would be trying to set the value inside kconfig.projbuild from main based on partition_table component https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/espr ... .projbuild:
At the moment of calling build the variable is not set so of course it shows an error.
Do you see something that could work with these approaches? If not I will use you solution.
Thanks

Code: Select all
include($ENV{IDF_PATH}/tools/cmake/project.cmake)
project(${_project_name})
Code: Select all
menu "Hardware"
choice HARDWARE_TYPE
prompt "Hardware type"
default HARDWARE_1
help
Choose the proper hardware device
config HARDWARE_1
bool "HARDWARE_1"
config HARDWARE_2
bool "HARDWARE_2"
config HARDWARE_3

endchoice
config PARTITION_TABLE_CUSTOM_FILENAME
string
default "partitions_0.csv" if HARDWARE_1
default "partitions_1.csv" if HARDWARE_2
default "partitions_2.csv" if HARDWARE_3
endmenu
