.hex file location on mac

agentavacado Fri Aug 07, 2015 12:47 pm

This may sound stupid... But how do you access a .hex file on mac? It's in this odd folder called "var" and I can't find it. I checked in the arduino.app file and outside it. Another possibility is that it dropped right into an .eeprom file and I can't open that. Is there a way to access the .hex file on mac?

Code: Select all: /Users/_/Desktop/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avr-objcopy -O ihex -R .eeprom /var/folders/04/6f7dy_md59dbbh4lgxdkhzfc0000gq/T/build2767952365303504327.tmp/sketch_aug06a.cpp.elf /var/folders/04/6f7dy_md59dbbh4lgxdkhzfc0000gq/T/build2767952365303504327.tmp/sketch_aug06a.cpp.hex

but in short after compile open terminal and Chance Derectory to that folder location that the IDE spits out

Code: Select all: cd /var/folders/04/6f7dy_md59dbbh4lgxdkhzfc0000gq/T/build2767952365303504327.tmp/
