AISgen crashes from command line

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L138

I am working on a Windows 7, 64-bit machine using AISgen_d800k008.exe, and I have a .cfg file that, when I load it from the GUI, does exactly what I need (i.e., creates the bootable image for both DSP and ARM cores for my OMAP-L138 system).

I want to incorporate the AIS file generation into a script, but I find that when I use the same AISgen_d800k008.exe with the -cfg option (like the documentation says to), the program crashes, briefly putting up a dialog window that says "OMAP_L138_AIS_GUI has stopped working"

So, what is the right way to make AIS file generation scripted for the OMAP-L138, since it looks like the method the documentation suggests does not work?

    Jay,

    Can you share your command line usage?  The AISgen utility should not crash this way when run from the command line.

    I just put in the path to the AISgen executable, -cfg, and the file to the configuration file generated from running the GUI:

    c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release>"c:\ti\AISgen for D800K008\AISgen_d800k008.exe" -cfg c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release\ST4_ais_config.cfg
    c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release>dir c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release\ST4_ais_config.cfg
     Volume in drive C is OSDisk
     Volume Serial Number is 727F-A96F

     Directory of c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release

    04/02/2012  04:03 PM             1,132 ST4_ais_config.cfg
                   1 File(s)          1,132 bytes
                   0 Dir(s)   9,072,807,936 bytes free

    And the result is the stopped working dialog, even though I have confirmed I have the path to the AISgen program correct and the dir command above demonstrates I have the path to the config file correct.   I have tried this with "local" copies of both the executable and the config (to avoid the long, and I always get the same result:  the "not working" dialog that vanishes quickly.   Just to confirm:  this is a .cfg file that works (creates a bootable .ais file) when I just double click the AISgen programe and load from the GUI.

    Jay,

    The command line usage is actually slightly different from what you are using.  I recommend trying the following:

    >"c:\ti\AISgen for D800K008\AISgen_d800k008.exe" -cfg="c:\Workdir\Vision\Software\ST4\common\release\ST4_ais_config.cfg"

    Let me know if this makes a difference.  If not, we will need to investigate further.

    Fantastic!  It works now.  I feel dumb for missing the equal sign.  Thanks for the fix.
