MSPM0L2228: Uniflash on MacOS

Barry W

Part Number: MSPM0L2228
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Tool/software:

I have tried the web based Uniflash, the MacOS GUI Uniflash app, and the command line app built by the MacOS app. All 3 fail similarly.

I can't copy the error messages from the Web based version or the GUI. They just hang at "loading" and I have to force quit the apps. It does look like there are error messages in the bottom box, but I can't copy them because the app/webpage are hung.

I am closer with the command line app. It did take 10+ passes to get all the unsigned .dylib apps manually approved for MacOS security, but now I get the following message. I added some whitespace and replaced my user name:

Error initializing flash programming:

                                                         '/usr/local/lib/libboost_filesystem.dylib' (no such file), 
                                                               '/usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.dylib' (no such file, not in dyld cache)

Seems like it is complaining about 2 files. It appears to be looking everywhere for the second one. I did a search of my entire system for libboost_filesystem.dylib and came up empty.

Does the error message mean anything to you?

Hi Barry,

Sorry, I do not have MacOS to test UniFlash in my side. Can you give some screenshot of you GUI runing and error showing?

I then can help get some comments from tools team experts.

I don't think I will spend more time trying to get UniFlash running. I just thought I would post some detail in case there were an easy fix.

Hi Barry,

Okay, will move the thread to tool team's org to see if there has some comments according your current information.

Barry,

I can see the same on my mac. It looks like the bootloader (serial) configuration has a dependency that does not ship with UniFlash.

I am able to use the the default connection that uses the embedded XDS110 debug probe fine.

I.e. if I let it detect my board and use the default connection at the top that is fine. Or in the new configuration section I can use either of the top 2 options just not the BOOTLOADER one.
