MSP432P4111 energia support


Recommended Posts

I have msp432p4111 launchpad  but cannot find it in the boards manager in energia. 

I found out from here: 

that plugging the following url into the preferences tab, I can get the beta version of the board msp432p4111.

http://s3.amazonaws.com/energiaUS/packages/package_msp432p_index.json

I want to connect cc3100 wifi shield to make repeated https requests. 

The problem I am facing is that I cannot find any wifi library for msp432p4111 in the beta version of the board.

Is the support for msp432p4111 launchpad being developed? Or is there any way I can modify the files for msp432p401r or any other board so that I can use those for msp432p4111 in energia(mainly for driving the cc3100 wifi sheild)?

The MSP432P4111 package doesn't include the libraries folder with the WiFi library.

  • Create the directory ~/Users/ReiVilo/Library/Energia15/packages/energia/hardware/msp432p/5.29.0-beta1/libraries
  • Copy the folder ~/Library/Energia15/packages/energia/hardware/msp432r/5.29.0/libraries/WiFi under ~/Users/ReiVilo/Library/Energia15/packages/energia/hardware/msp432p/5.29.0-beta1/libraries to obtain ~/Users/ReiVilo/Library/Energia15/packages/energia/hardware/msp432p/5.29.0-beta1/libraries/WiFi

The paths mentioned above are for macOS. They might differ for Windows and Linux.

Compiling the SimpleWebServerWiFi example was successful but I don't have the hardware LaunchPad MSP432P4111 + BoosterPack CC3100 to proceed with the tests.

Thankyou Rei.

I have followed the steps as above to compile a sample program. I gives a warning as seen in the screenshot attached.

I think it is beacuse of the library.properties file which is present in every library folder.

I will try it on the hardware and get back with the results.

Also one thing I noticed is that I cannot see the location of the Binary File created in Energia as it is shown in Rei's screenshot. Do I need to worry about any Energia Installation mistakes?

Hi,

Sorry for being late.

Since the COVID lockdown rules have become a bit relaxed I was able to access the hardware at my college. 

Rei's solution did work and I was able to use CC3100 booster pack with MSP432P4111 launchpad. I was also able to make REST API calls to the cloud using the setup. Sometimes the connection to the cloud fails but it is fine for now.

Thankyou Rei Vilo
