network bootloader for dm6437

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

I'm trying to compile the bootloader provided by VirtualLogix. It complains because it does not find the file csl_dm64lc.lib and I'm not able to understand where I can find this file.

 

Otherwise I'm wondering if there's another network bootloader for the DM6437.

 

Suggestions?

  • Hi Ottavio,

    You might need to contact VirtualLogix for this one. We do not have a file with this name. Actually, the software for DM6437 is PSP based, not CSL based.

    The closest name I could find of what we provide would be the hal_eth_dm64lc.lib file at:

    C:\CCStudio_v3.3\ndk_2_0_0\packages\ti\ndk\lib\hal\evmdm6437

    after you install NDK. For installing NDK please see:

    If that is not what you are looking for, please contact VirtualLogix.

  • I'm having problems contacting VirtualLogix, they simply don't answer...

    I was studying the NDK, implementing a tftp client does not seem to be impossibile. But the question is: if I transfer the binary onto the board with tftp,. what do I have to do in order to execute it? How and where does execution have to branch?

  • I got it working. I reimplemented the missing functions of the CSL, even though a CSL is not available for the DM6437.

    I'm really surprised by the low quality of the software provided with the evaluation board of the DM6437. The bootloader provided by virtuallogix clearly refers to preliminary version ot the software for the DM6437 that is not available to the final user.
