CCSv4 Console Scripting: loadRaw can't find file

Hi

CCSv4.1.3

I'd like to use "loadRaw" to load memory and it can't find the file. The output is below

js:> loadData 0xe0000000 0 "data.txt" 1

Error evaluating "GEL_MemoryLoad(3758096384,0,1,"C:\\Work\\CCSv4_ndk\\data.txt")": GEL_MemoryLoad

Could Not Open File C:\Work\CCSv4_ndk\data.txt for reading. (C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\eclipse\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles\188\1\.cp\resources\debugserver\memory.js#200

js:>

) :

But the file exists and only has the archive attribute

C:\Work\CCSv4_ndk>attrib
A          C:\Work\CCSv4_ndk\data.txt

Also, I used this command to set the path

js:> env.setCurrentDirectory("C:/Work/CCSv4_ndk/");

Why can't it find the data.txt file? Could it be its actually complaining about the file format?

What should the data.txt format be?

Cheers

    Update

    It turns out the problem is the data.txt format. It has to have the header

    1651 1 e0000000 0 10

    Don't know why it said it "could not open file".

    Cheers

    Hi,

    I'm trying to load a file in memory using a DSS script.

    I use the loadRaw() function like this:

     

    var address = session.symbol.getAddress("my_var")

    session.memory.loadRaw(Memory.Page.PROGRAM, address, "file.txtt", 16, false)

     

    but i have the same errors with the GEL_MemoryLoad() API you present in the first post. 

    In the above post you said that the problem was the file format, but what does represent the string 1651 1 e0000000 0 10 ?

     

    Thanks,

    Luca.

    That string is a header for CCS data files (*.dat). Are you trying to load a data file or a raw binary file? loadRaw is for loading a raw binary file while Eddie was load a CCS data file.
