Flashloader_pack1.X.0.exe

victor

I right now am following the guide on the flashloader example at

https://synergygallery.renesas.com/media/products/74/193/en-US/r11an0073eu0100-synergy-ssp-flashloader.pdf

I am trying to get this working but require  Flashloader_pack1.2.0b1.exe. I cannot find this download on the website or is there a place where I can download  Flashloader_pack1.3.0.exe since I am using SSP 1.3.0.

I looked in the e2_studio install directory and still cannot find anything. Please let me know where I can find the flashloader pack or where to download it.

I am using the SK-S7G2 starter kit.

    Hi adboc,

    I unzipped the Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack and put it in internal/projectgen/arm/packs. What should I do to use it in my e2 studio project? I mean to refer to sf_bootloader.h for example

    Thanks

    Hi Bj,

    In the configurator, please open Threads tab > New Stack > Renesas > Flashloader - there will be all flashloader frameworks available.

    When I unzip the folder Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack.zip and put it in the internal\projectgen\arm\packs, it appears as a folder and nothing happens in e2 Studio.

    Otherwise, if I just rename Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack.zip to Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack and put it in internal\projectgen\arm\packs, it seems to be regonized as a pack file since I have a message in e2 sutdio which makes me notice that "Changes to the CMSIS Pack Folder have been detected"

    However i can't see the module in Threads tab > New Stack > Renesas > Flashloader. Is there sonmething I missed?

    Thanks

    I made that I described above and I restarted e2 studio, I can see now Flashloader in Threads tab > New Stack > Renesas .
    However there are only three possibilities and not the one I used in Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.3.0.pack . Bootloader Framework on sf_bootloader_mcu is missing in Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack
    Does anyone have a suggestion?

    Hi Bj,

    Sorry, you're right, it's needed to rename *.pack.zip to *.pack and place it in packs/.

    I've just created a new project and see the Bootloader Framework on sf_bootloader_mcu available. Have you selected SSP 1.4.0 in BSP tab?

    Hi adboc,

    Thanks for your help, I also tried with a new project and I could see all modules. However, I couldn't see them in my existing project so I deleted it from my workspace and imported it again.

    When I opened my project and built with SSP 1.4.0, it didn't remove bootloader component (certainly because the pack is recognized) and the build is ok.

    However I still can't see all modules in Flashloader but my project works, it's not a problem for now but I can't add some modules if needed.

    Thanks,

    Bj

    Hi Bj,

    Could you check if there are no components from SSP older than 1.4.0 in Components tab? I suggest removing .module_descriptions directory, it will be generated again when opening the project.

    Hi Adboc,

    I checked and all components come from SSP 1.4.0. I did what you suggested by removing .module_descriptions directory, when I opened the project it generated again the directory but I couldn't see the flashloader module in Threads tab > New Stack

    Hi All,

    As I said above, it works for one of my projects but I can't see all the modules in Threads tab > New Stack > Renesas. That's not a problem for this project, however I need to add a module to another existing project and I can't.

    In the C:\Renesas\e2_studio_6_2_0\internal\projectgen\arm\packs there is the Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack. I tried to remove it and add it again, the change has been detected in e2Studio but I have this message:
    "Installing Synergy support files: Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack... No support files present."

    Regards,

    Hi All,

    As I said above, the first time I moved to the SSP 1.4.0, in my existing project which uses the Bootloader the module has been removed. I added the Renesas.Synergy_flashloader.1.4.0.pack and when I opened the project again module was present and it built. However I can't see all the modules which are contained in the pack.

    Now, I have to add the sf_firmware_image and the sf_memory_mcu_flash in another project. I can see the module I need, I Added it and maked a generate project content. It seems there is a problem when the generate project content is done because there is no renesas content which is created in sysnergy folder of my project.
    As there is no .c and .h files the build failed.
    To make the build work, I have to add manually the renesas folder in synergy folder. I still don't understand why i can't see all the modules and why it does'nt work when I generated project content.

    Regards,
    Bj
