Does USBDM stand alone programmer need Codewarrior etc?

[Circlotron]

Got myself a USBDM programmer today and it works just great on S08 micros. I'm not interested in all the debug stuff, only want to download s19 files into the target board. The other day I installed an evaluation version of Codewarrior but it turns out it doesn't suit my requirements so I'm planning on deleting it.

Seeing I don't need all the debug stuff, will the stand alone USBDM programmer work without Codewarrior installed?

I installed it on Win7 and it works okay, but when I installed it on Mint Mate I couldn't get it to do anything. No GUI appears. Maybe I need to install extra stuff?

Hi,
The stand-alone programmers do not need any other software apart from dependencies e.g. wxWindows.
I use it with Linux mint.
Did you install the deb or build from scratch?
There are often problems with dependencies if using the deb as version change rather often.
Run the programmer in a shell and see if there are any messages.

[Circlotron]

Yeah, I installed from deb.
From the command line it says
libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.26' not found
libwx_gtk3u_core-3.0.so.0: version `WXU_3.0.5' not found

So there's something for me to start looking for.

...and as usual with Linux, this takes me down a thousand rabbit holes. 
Can someone tell me where to get these libraries and how to install them?

Edit -> installing gcc 9 solved the first one.

[pgo]

Try sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0

BUT if I remember correctly with that error I was not able to get it to work at all.  There is some change in wxWidgets that breaks in recent versions of Mint.
I was able to build a deb file in an older version or a newer version but the builds were incompatible on the other version.
The deb was built on 5.4.0-113-generic (from uname -r)

The deb has a list of dependencies:
Depends: libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5, libgcc1, libstdc++6, libxerces-c3.2, libc6, libtcl8.6, libusb-1.0-0
so they should have been intsalled anyway.

I don't really understand Linux library versions

In the meantime I tried installing using the following:

Code: [Select]

cd WorkDirectory
sudo apt-get install git 
git clone https://github.com/podonoghue/usbdm-eclipse-makefiles-build.git 
git clone https://github.com/podonoghue/usbdm-eclipse-plugins.git 
cd usbdm-eclipse-makefiles-build 
sudo ./LinuxPackages 
./MakeAll 
./CreateDebFile 
sudo ./UpdateThat worked great with my lab pc and I'm happy as a pig in mud with it. I took the resulting deb file and installed it in my play pc but still wouldn't run. Starting it from the command line again said libwx_gtk3u_core-3.0.so.0: version `WXU_3.0.5' not found. So I tried making the deb file on the play pc and part way through got the following error:

Given the astoundingly complex things that were scrolling up the screen, I have no idea what to do next

[Circlotron]

The error message says
../Shared/src/AppSettings.h:33:10: fatal error: filesystem: No such file or directory
but the files appears to actually exist...

[Circlotron]

Try sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0

BUT if I remember correctly with that error I was not able to get it to work at all.

Tried that and then installed the pre-made deb and still no go.

[Circlotron]

The error message says
../Shared/src/AppSettings.h:33:10: fatal error: filesystem: No such file or directory
but the files appears to actually exist... (Attachment Link)

Closer look - actual missing files are
BdmInterfaceCommon.h
BdmInterfaceCommon.cpp

What to do now?

[pgo]

Hi,
Those files are in BDMInterface_DLL.
I think the actual problem is that I have just introduced some C++19 features filesystem::path.
I have modified the files on Github to use a older style.
Please try again.
Alternatively - update to a later version of GCC.
bye

[Circlotron]

Okay, I'll try it again.
Also i just had a look at the lab pc where everything works okay and neither of those files were on it either.

[Circlotron]

I have modified the files on Github to use a older style.
Please try again.

Woohoo!
Thanks heaps pgo. I really appreciate your help. 
P.S. That is Linux I'm running, but with Win2K window appearance.

Today I noticed that it wrongly identifies a 9S08PA16 as 9S08PA8.
PA8 flash starts at $E000 and PA16 starts at $C000.

[pgo]

I believe the PA8 and PA16 have the same SDID value.  They are described by the same reference manual.
When you do Detect Chip it provides a list of matching devices (2 in this case).
I would expect PA8 and PA16 to both be present.
I do not have every possible device to verify this.
bye

PS. It is quite possible that they are actually the same chip.  The smaller device may be used to improve yield on partially defective devices.

[Circlotron]

Yes, it turns out that several variants have the same SDID value 0x0042 listed in the datasheet.
PA8
PA16
PL16
PT16
