How do I set the option to use c99 on Arduino 101? about arduinocore-arc32 HOT 9 CLOSED

duplicate arduino/Arduino#5063

from arduinocore-arc32.

Paul, I was advised to post the issue here by facchinm, and he closed the issue so I would post it here.
So I don't really understand why you are marking it duplicate.
I see you have a platform.txt for the 101, but I can't find it on my machine. Also where would platform.local.txt be placed relative to the project file? Because this is what I need to adjust to get c99 mode.
Thanks!

@jimdgit can you post the code that requires C99 to compile, and show the compile error? is it in a .cpp or .c file?

I see you have a platform.txt for the 101, but I can't find it on my machine.

Arduino15/packages/Intel/hardware/arc32/<version>/platform.txt
Arduino15 is where preferences.txt is, you can its location in the Preferences dialog.

OK, I backtracked over the issue on Arduino's github, saw your C file.
Open the file that @oqibidipo mentioned and add -std=gnu99 to compiler.c.flags. See if that works for you.

First thank you all for this information!
Arduino15/packages/Intel/hardware/arc32//platform.txt
On windows this is "hidden" in:
C:\Users\AppData\Local
unlike the default ones that are in the install directory (that's why AI could not seem to locate these files)
I will try this tonight and post results.

Ok, I can confirm that adding -std=gnu99 to compiler.c.flags. in Arduino15/packages/Intel/hardware/arc32/platform.txt solves all my issues.
Thanks again to @eriknyquist and @oqibidipo for taking time to help me out.

Can we please fix this in the core itself? The compilation options should match those of the AVR and SAMD cores (which means using gnu11 and gnu++11 standards IIRC).

@matthijskooijman yes, there is -std=gnu11 in the compiler.c.flags here:
https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/blob/master/hardware/arduino/avr/platform.txt
So we should match that I guess. I'll look into it.
