mgh 11 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Does anyone know if MSP432 (black) can be added to the standard Arduino setup? The reason: I've got an Adafruit Feather M0+ board working with Arduino, so the ARM Cortex-M compiler is "already there". I'm hoping maybe I could remove Energia (since I don't need the '430 support). If I add the JSON board file for the black MSP432 launch-pad, will the Arduino IDE get everything it needs to play with the MSP432? https://energia.nu/packages/package_msp432_black_index.json Also, is there a JSON file for the Tiva TM4C123 launch-pad? (same reason, have a Tiva, want to move everything over to one IDE). Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 No, it is not possible as the Energia IDE includes specific features to support the multi-treading of the MSP432. The black MSP432 is deprecated and no longer supported. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mgh 11 Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 But I don't care about that multitasking - does anyone know if it would work otherwise? Yes, I know the black MSP432 has been abandoned, but I'm not going to throw away perfectly good hardware. Thanks for the response! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jazz 209 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 This is TI. Go back with your IDE version, and board should work just fine. http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/XMS432_Support veryalive 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! not json but instructions given for linux https://github.com/RickKimball/tivac-core Assumes you have openocd and arm-none-eabi-gcc in your path. Probably won't work for windows. Probably will work for OSX. Fmilburn and energia 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
energia 485 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Although the Arduino IDE should be able to consume the Energia packages, there is a difference between the arduino-builder in Arduino and Energia which makes the msp432 package incompatible with the Arduino IDE. See the pull request here: https://github.com/arduino/arduino-builder/pull/119. I have it on my list to find a different solution and be able to use the stock arduino-builder at which point the Arduino IDE should be able to consume the Energia package. For TivaC and MSP430, it is possible to use it in the Arduino IDE. Just put this in the preferences: http://energia.nu/packages/package_energia_index.json. Then pull up the board manager and install TivaC support. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mgh 11 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Wow! Thank you Rick, thank you @energia! I'll try some of these this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 If you want to use one single IDE for all the different boards, try Visual Micro (Windows only), embedXcode (macOS only), PlatformIO (Windows + macOS + Linux). All come as freemium: free for basic features; one-time-fee or subscription for more advanced features. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
