One more question....
After sifting through the mailing list archive, I'm still
rather vague on which gdbproxy versions work with which USB
interfaces:
* Softbaugh USBP
http://www.softbaugh.com/ProductPage.cfm?strPartNo=USBP
* Softbaugh USBP Pro
http://www.softbaugh.com/ProductPage.cfm?strPartNo=USBP
* Elpotronic FlashPro430 http://www.elprotronic.com/flashpro430.html
* Olimex isoalted http://www.olimex.com/dev/msp-jtag-iso.html
* Olimex tiny http://www.olimex.com/dev/msp-jtag-tiny.html
* Olimex RF http://www.olimex.com/dev/msp-jtag-rf.html
* TI eZ430-F2013
http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/ez430-f2013.html
* TI MSP-FET430UIF
http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/msp-fet430uif.html
A couple of those (Softbaugh) mention specifically that they
don't work with gdbproxy.
Some of the above claim to work with gdbproxy or claim that
they are compatible with MSP-FET430UIF but include their own
msp430.dll library. I assume that means they'll work with the
Win32 version of gdbproxy but not the Linux version?
Which ones work with gdbproxy under Linux?
Might it be possible for a summay of what versions of gdbproxy
work with what USB interfaces to be added to the "tools" page at
http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/tools.html?
If they work wih the unmodified TI software they should work with
msp430-gdbproxy. The TI tools, and the ones from Lierda fall in this
category.
If they work by swapping the TI msp430.dll file for one of their own,
they should work with msp430-gdbproxy in the same way. That normally
means they will only work on Windows machines, but I think most of the
other tools should fall in this category.
If they require more changes they probably won't work at all.
If people can feed me actual success or failure experiences with various
tools, I will build a compatibility charge on the web site. Try to
include information about whether they work with Spy-Bi-Wire and the
MSP430FG461x if you can. It seems some tools may still not support those
features.
