JLink as upload tool

[wofei1314]

I have sad this page
http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/plus/debugging.html#custom

But I didn't add Jlink successful.

My platformio ide version is 0.7.2

I want to use PIO Debug my stm32 project with Jlink debug tool ...

I try to modify platformio.ini like this:
[env:jlink_debug_and_upload]
platform = ststm32
framework = stm32cube
board = nucleo_f411re
debug_tool = custom
debug_server =
JLinkGDBServerCL
-singlerun
-if
SWD
-select
USB
-port
2331
-device
STM32F411RE

And when I update firmware to mcu,

`[09/02/17 23:20:02] Processing jlink_debug_and_upload (platform: ststm32; debug_server: JLinkGDBServerCL, -singlerun, -if,
SWD, -select, USB, -port, 2331, -device, STM32F411RE; debug_tool: custom; board: nucleo_f411re; framework: stm32cube)

`

PS:I had add the JlinkGDBServerCL.exe path to my system environment，I can use powershell run JlinkGDBServerCL.exe successful.

Configuration

Could you try this workaround?

http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/plus/debugging.html#j-link-as-debugger-and-uploader

If it works, we will think how to integrate J-Link to our development platforms where user will use something like that:

[env:myenv]
...
debug_tool = jlink
upload_protocol = jlink

[fadh3r]

with this settings in platformio.ini

upload_protocol = jlink
debug_tool = custom
debug_server =
    JLinkGDBServerExe
    -singlerun
    -if
    SWD
    -select
    USB
    -port
    2331
    -device
    STM32F103C8
    -telnetport
    2333

output is:

AVAILABLE: blackmagic, jlink, jlink, serial, stlink
CURRENT: upload_protocol = jlink

but when I push Debug button uploading finished fine

[fadh3r]

my extra_script.py

Import("env")

env.AddPreAction(
    "upload",
     env.VerboseAction(" ".join([
         "echo",
         "'h\\nloadfile $BUILD_DIR/firmware.hex\\nr\\nq\\n'",
         ">$BUILD_DIR/aux.jlink"
     ]), "Creating auxiliary files"))

env.Replace(
    UPLOADHEXCMD=
    'JLinkExe -device STM32F103C8 -speed 4000 -if swd -autoconnect 1 -CommanderScript $BUILD_DIR/aux.jlink'
)

[fadh3r]

So in my case I solved this issue with customizing extra_script.py

Import("env")

env.AddPreAction(
    "upload",
     env.VerboseAction(" ".join([
         "echo -e",
         "'h\\nloadbin $BUILD_DIR/firmware.bin 0x8000000\\nr\\nq\\n'",
         ">$BUILD_DIR/aux.jlink",
     ]), "Creating auxiliary files"))

env.Replace(
    UPLOADCMD = 'JLinkExe -device STM32F103C8 -speed 4000 -if swd -autoconnect 1 -CommanderScript $BUILD_DIR/aux.jlink'
)

UPLOADCMD is not UPLOADHEXCMD like in example in Advanced Scripting

@ju-mpe-r could you re-test with the latest upstream version? http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/ststm32.html#stable-and-upstream-versions

Please remove all extra scripts and lines.

Just use

[env:xxx]
upload_protocol = jlink
debug_tool = jlink

All should work out of the box.

[ivankravets]

@wofei1314 please also re-test with http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/ststm32.html#stable-and-upstream-versions

[fadh3r]

@ivankravets
with transport select swd in .platformio/packages/tool-openocd/scripts/interface/jlink.cfg works fine :)

[ivankravets]

@ju-mpe-r I've just fixed that and you don't need to modify openOCD scripts. Could you try the upstream version?

[env:upstream]
platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-ststm32.git
board = bluepill_f103c8
framework = arduino
upload_protocol = jlink
debug_tool = jlink

[ivankravets]

@jourjine you have broken Git tool in a system. Try to reinstall it or use platform = ststm32

[fadh3r]

@ivankravets yes, it's working fine right now. Thank you.

[fadh3r]

@ivankravets, I was wrong. Successful result was with my extra_script.py in platformio.ini, but without it, I've got this:

[ivankravets]

@ju-mpe-r could you close VSCode, disconnect J-Link and start again?
Of course, without extra script.

[fadh3r]

@ivankravets working! Thank you!
