CCS 4.2.4.0033 -> loadti.bat -> flash -> "necessary sectors only"

Matthias Kruesselin

Hello,

i'm using CCS 4.2.4.0033 with external Spectrum Digital Debugger XDS510USB.

It is possible to execute "loadti.bat -v --reset --no-profile -c XDS510_FLASH_TargetConfiguration.ccxml example.out" well.

This needs much time and I think that the whole flash is erased.

In CCS it is possible to change the flashing by: Target -> Debug -> Target -> TMS570... -> "necessary sectors only".

How can i do it here?

Best Regards,

Matthias

Hi Matthias,

loadti does not support this by default. However, loadti is simply a DSS example script and there are DSS APIs to change the flash options. An example of this API shown in the below thread:

Hence you can modify the loadti script to support this additional functionality.

Thanks

Thank's that's the solution. Adding this line.

debugSession.options.setString("FlashEraseSelection", "Necessary Sectors Only (for Program Load)");
