My guess is that you have eclipse installed by your distribution, and that you are installing the plugin as a regular user. As I need to install native binary files, I need somewhere to write this rather arbitrary data. Unfortunately, the most convenient way I have found is to install files to the installation root of Eclipse. I am looking for better ways to do this, but unfortunately there seem to be no straight forward solutions. In order to get this working, your best bet is to download the Eclipse tarball directly from eclipse.org and extract it somewhere where you have write-permissions. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I'm still learning my way around Eclipse. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mymaestro 1 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I am running on Fedora 16 with Indigo. I got the plugin installed by running Eclipse as root one time, so now I get things going.

I had installed the toolchain in Fedora before doing the Eclipse integration. Putting /usr/lib64/eclipse/msp430-toolchain/linux-amd64/bin first in the $PATH, and /usr/lib64/eclipse/msp430-toolchain/linux-amd64/lib in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH seems to work.

xpg 127 Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 mymaestro: you should also be able to solve the problem by choosing the pre-build toolchain from the msp430 preferences in Eclipse, rather than the System Toolchain. If that does not work, please let me know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to bypass apt. You can easily install Eclipse in your home directory, or anywhere else without polluting /usr, /usr/local, etc. So it is perfectly safe to have, $HOME/opt/eclipse, for instance. But I do understand that you want to go through your distribution's regular channels. I'll try to fix it, but I can't really promise anything. I do have a couple of questions which might help me remedy the situation: First, which version of Eclipse are you running? (if you don't know, you can just tell me your distribution name and version). 32 or 64 bit? If you go to the properties of your project (right click the project and select "Properties"), and select MSP430 in the left-side pane. Is the page still blank?

OppaErich 25 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Hi, it's aptosid = Debian sid with a different kernel, 32 bit. Eclipse Platform Version: 3.7.0 Build id: I20110613-1736 I've started eclipse from the command line and I get: oppa@oppa-mag:~$ eclipse Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module" Google said this is provided by packagekit-gtk-module, which I've installed but still this error. I'm affraid the box is there but just invisible. Anyway, I'll give $HOME install a try now. Cheers, Stephan http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/alben ... 616630.jpg Edit: I've downloaded and installed the tarball to /home/oppa/bin/eclipse and set to use the precompiled toolchain. I get the target selction box now but it's still 'no worky'. When I hit the 'play' button I get The selection can not be launched, and there are no recent launches :!!!: http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/alben ... 613162.jpg Edit2: OK, sorted. For whatever reason "File->New" did not assign this file to the project. It is building now but upload fails: usbutil: unable to find a device matching 0451:f432 which is no surprise because: Bus 004 Device 003: ID 0451:f430 Texas Instruments, Inc.

But I'll try to install Debian sid and try to reproduce and see if I can do anything about it. http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/alben ... 616630.jpg Edit: I've downloaded and installed the tarball to /home/oppa/bin/eclipse and set to use the precompiled toolchain.

You have to go to the MSP430 menu and select "Upload to target", which should launch mspdebug to program your chip. However, mspdebug is currently always invoked with the rf2500 driver. It's not difficult to add a "Programmer Setting" to each project, but I wanted to figure the binary toolchain stuff out first. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OppaErich 25 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 It's not difficult to add a "Programmer Setting" to each project, but I wanted to figure the binary toolchain stuff out first. Well, obviously too difficult for me. Anyway, I've uploaded the binary using mspdebug in console. It does not what's supposed to do. /* * blinky149x.c * * Created on: 27.11.2011 * Author: oppa */ // eclipse blinky test // 430F149 board (Itead) // LEDs 1-4 at 6.7-6.4, low active #include #define LED1 BIT7 // seems there is a space instead of a tab, could this fool eclipse ? #define LED2 BIT6 #define LED3 BIT5 #define LED4 BIT4 unsigned volatile int i; void delay(void); int main(void){ WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; P6DIR |= LED1 + LED2 + LED3 + LED4; P6OUT = 0xf0; while(1){ P6OUT|= LED2; P6OUT &= ~LED1; delay(); P6OUT &= ~LED2; P6OUT |= LED1; delay(); P6OUT &= ~LED3; P6OUT |= LED2; delay(); P6OUT &= ~LED4; P6OUT |= LED3; delay(); P6OUT &= ~LED3; P6OUT |= LED4; delay(); P6OUT &= ~LED2; P6OUT |= LED3; delay(); } return 0; } void delay(void){ for(i=0;i<27000;i++); return; } Works with IAR, works with mspgcc from the command line but not with the binary eclipse built. LEDs stay dark. Thanks for your hard work but it looks like I'm too numb to benefit from it. Have a nice sunday, Stephan :wave: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OppaErich 25 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 ...told ya I'm too numb :oops: I've tried again using system tools and then found my mistake. I did upload the wrong binary. I was using ~/workspace/blinky149/main.elf, the right one is ~/workspace/blinky149/Debug/blinky149.elf. Working fine with prebuilt and system tools. Only upload to target does not. :thumbup: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's quite like interesting. The binary uploaded is the one indicated as the project's output artifact (I think it's called). How that becomes a different one when building and uploading is beyond me... But at least I am happy to hear that you have had some progress. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vostock 0 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hi, Thanks a lot for your work. It Works perfectly for me :thumbup: But just with the LauchPad which USB PID is f432, did you planed to make it work with the EZ430-F2013 USB key which USB PID is f430 ? I tried changing PID in /etc/udev/rules.d/90-launchpad. rules to make it work but without success :? Regards, David. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xpg 127 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 Thanks a lot for your work. It Works perfectly for me :thumbup: Thank you very much for that update. It's always good to hear that it works somewhere else than on my machines :clap: But just with the LauchPad which USB PID is f432, did you planed to make it work with the EZ430-F2013 USB key which USB PID is f430 ? I tried changing PID in /etc/udev/rules.d/90-launchpad. rules to make it work but without success :? Yes, the goal is to make it support all devices which are supported by mspdebug. Currently, I have hardcoded all my calls to mspdebug to use the rf2500 driver, which effectively means that only Launchpad and Chronos are supported. As far as I can see, the EZ430-F2013 needs the uif-driver for mspdebug. I will implement configuration of the mspdebug-connection in the next release, as it should be fairly trivial.

xpg 127 Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 I finally managed to get time to make a new release of the MSP430Eclipse plugin. As previously, it is available from http://eclipse.xpg.dk via the Eclipse "install new software" dialog. There are two major changes in this version: First, mspdebug can now be configured such that other drivers than the rf2500 can be used. I have not tested this, as I only have a launchpad. Hopefully someone from this forum is willing to give it a spin, and let me know if it works or not. The second improvement is with regards to debugging. It's now much simpler to configure the debugger, and the code behind is much cleaner. I've recorded a small video to show how msp430eclipse is installed, and how it can be used to create, upload, and debug a small program: Enjoy. artifus, bluehash and OppaErich 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
