feature request: please modify events for CCSv4 "reload program"

CCSv4 seems to have a "steal window focus" sometime at the beginning of it reloading a new program, at least in Windows XP: e.g. whatever other program you were working on, CCSv4 suddenly buts in and displays the programming progress bar.

Please pass along this pair of feature requests:

- Eliminate the stealing of window focus.

- Allow users to configure CCS so at the *end* of programming, it can play a user-configured sound for successful or unsuccessful programming.

When I program a device (e.g. C28335 DSP) it can take several minutes, during which I need to wait or do something else. I would like to be notified in a nonobtrusive manner that the programming is finished. Playing a sound is nonobtrusive. Stealing window focus is obtrusive.

 

Is there any way to accomplish something like this via GEL scripts? (or whatever the latest thing in CCSv4 is, I seem to remember it has a Javascript interpreter or something)

    I will file these requests on your behalf

    You can do it using GEL. But I would recommend the Scripting Console (that Javascript interpreter)
