Running CCS from command line

Is it possible to start a CCS debug session, load a program, run (emulate) the program, and then terminate the debug session, all under command line control? Ditto for simulation (i.e., all in software without a jtag connected to an actual hardware system).

Ideally, we'd like to do this from 5.x under linux in order to automate our regression testing. However, we could live with 4.x under Windoze.

Hi Randy,

loadti may be what you are looking for:

loadti comes with CCSv4 and v5. Note that CCSv5 is supported on Linux.

Thanks

Thanks! Looks OK. I don't like Javascript, but beats not having anything.

If you just want to load/run/terminate, you should just be able to run the script "as-is" by calling the provided batch/shell script (which then run the javascript). So you won't have to deal with any javascript directly.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Loadti link,for MSP 430 it says that

Change the default debugger settings to set a breakpoint at the program exit point - Do we need to change this in IDE?
Modify loadti to add a breakpoint at the program exit point (can set a breakpoint at the exit point label) - what modification we need to do in loadti.bat file?

Please clarify

Hi,

Could you please help me out regarding the termination command for loadti . I am able to execute the .out but unable to stop the execution via command line.

Regards,

Harshdeep,
If you program does not self terminate, then you should run loadti with the async run option (-a) or set a timeout (-t) . Otherwise you can prematurely terminate the loadti script with the console abort command (CTRL+C, etc)

Thanks
