Download flash API 02.01.00

Hi,

Where can I find a download for the flash API v02.01.00?  I'm trying to use the uart bootloader example, but I have v02.01.01 installed and it has build errors.

 

Thanks,

David

  • The UART bootloader example application note lists a link to get the code for the example. It has the API version used at the time the example was developed included. The link to the code zip file is www.ti.com/.../spna192. The application note is at www.ti.com/.../spna192.

    I have also copied the author of the application note and app note to make them aware of the issues porting to the latest release of the API.
  • Thanks Chuck.

     

    I was able to get it working, but it was not straightforward.  Perhaps I don't fully understand CCS, but what caused me issues was that all of the paths were relative to the path variable ORIGINAL_PROJECT_ROOT which was defined as

    C:/Users/a0324020/workspace_v5_4/SafetyMCU_Bootloader/TMS570LS31x/boot_uart

     

    Which means the project has to be put in exactly the right spot to build.  I would have expected the example to have include files and the lib file (where appropriate) be relative to the PROJECT_ROOT variable.  That way any workspace can be used and the include paths / Flash lib would be correctly referenced.

     

    Thanks,

    David

  • Hi David,

    I am glad you were able to get it working and apologize for the path related inconveniences. I do agree with your point that the project should be relocatable and not path dependent for at least the upstream path. I will pass this information on to the example developer so that they are ware and can make corrections for the next update.
