Compiler/TM4C129XNCZAD: LWIP and EEPROM

Hi Faizan,

 How do you know that it is taking the else statement? If your EEprom programming is not successful then the EEprom will retain the original erased value which is also 0xFFFFFFFF. Below is an example shown in the TivaWare Driverlib userguide. Is this something similar what you used to program the EEprom?

uint32_t ui32EEPROMInit;
uint32_t pui32Data[2];
uint32_t pui32Read[2];
//
// Enable the EEPROM module.
//
SysCtlPeripheralEnable(SYSCTL_PERIPH_EEPROM0);
//
// Wait for the EEPROM module to be ready.
//
while(!SysCtlPeripheralReady(SYSCTL_PERIPH_EEPROM0))
{
}
//
// Wait for the EEPROM Initialization to complete
//
ui32EEPROMInit = EEPROMInit();
//
// Check if the EEPROM Initialization returned an error
// and inform the application
//
if(ui32EEPROMInit != EEPROM_INIT_OK)
{
while(1)
{
}
}
//
// Program some data into the EEPROM at address 0x400.
//
pui32Data[0] = 0x12345678;
pui32Data[1] = 0x56789abc;
EEPROMProgram(pui32Data, 0x400, sizeof(pui32Data));
//
// Read it back.
//
EEPROMRead(pui32Read, 0x400, sizeof(pui32Read));

Hello Charles,
I follow the same example and write my code and I have verified it by writing another variable value, as I defined an array of two numbers. And also I check it by changing the return value in the "lwIPLocalIPAddrGet()" function and I read the same value from there which I changed.

Faizan

Faizan,
Try to isolate the two sides of your problem:
- Make sure you have your VALID IP address stored in a variable. Double check the variable size, type, etc...
- Make sure you succeed in writing something else to EEPROM (and reading it back), by referring to Charles' code above.
Once both are good, there won't be no reason for your EEPROM writing to go wrong.

Hello Fizan.
You can use the following code assuming that you have converted the parts of the ip address into 4 distinct bytes and put to the my_IP[4] array

#define IP_Location 32 // the 32nd addressed location of your EEPROM (the 9th word) -or whatever else fits


void changeIP(byte my_IP[4])
{

for(int i=0 ; i < 4 ; i++)

{

EEPROM.write (IP_Location + i , my_IP[i]);
delay(50);

}

}

Here is the link to download the slightly modified EEPROM version of TIVAWARE eeprom, on top of it. Read the documentation. Very handy!

Hi Bruno,

I have valid IP address and my EEPROM code have no problem, I debugging my code again with the Breakpoints and I realize that I have to use interrupt handler as the function from which I getting IP Address is executed after my EEPROMProgram execute.I will put interrupt then I will check whether the same problem exist or not. Thanks for the help :)

Be careful with this type of solution. If you have an connection/network problem and your "condition" never changes from 0, your product will freeze.
