Hello Cypress.

I tried to run CY8CKIT-022 by using uc/Probe.

However, the following error message is displayed and uc/Probe is forcibly closed.

This issue was not solved after adding custom flags.

Could you please let us know how to solve this issue?

Dear Matsubara-san,

We have to apologize for our delay...

Regarding the current issue, could you please take a look at followings?

  1. To use the code example with PSoC Creator 4.2, the ‘-gdwarf-3’ compiler flag must be set (you are already aware of it, though)
  2. The uC/Probe workspace file (.wspx) was created with an older version of the tool (e.g probably in v3.3). So, if you are using the latest version of the uC/Probe, functionality is not guaranteed. Generally, that tool is backward compatible, but we have not verified it. So, better try using an older version in that case.
  3. Sometimes, if there are any issues while loading the workspace file, the uC/Probe tool corrupts the workspace file and it does not work. That workspace file cannot be reused as the variable mapping to GUI elements gets disjointed. The you have to use a fresh copy of the workspace file and try again.
  4. There are generated HEX and ELF files already present in the code example folder (available on the kit webpage). You can try those (without rebuilding the project) and check whether your uC/Probe setup is working correctly.
  5. Alternatively, you can use the serial terminal and read UART output which prints the same data as uC/Probe (now the default mode).

BTW, Cypress have officially stopped Micrium uC/Probe support for all Cypress kits. This is just information.

Would like to confirm whether the error occurs without -gdwarf-3 option, or not.

Could you please clarify this?

thank you.

Btw, how many time can kit’s license key be used?

Are there any restrictions on use?

This license key may have been used before me by our team someone..

However, license seems to be properly installed and activated to my laptop PC.

Best Regards.

Please follow the steps described as below.

1) Select the elf file, which you built on PSoC Creator.

2) Open the workspace file (*.wspx).

At this time, following popup window is displayed. Select "LLS_CS0_12RX.wspx" file, click "Save" button, and replace it.

(you may be able to change the file name of *.wspx file)

And again select "LLS_CS0_12RX.wspx" file and open it.

Finally, workspace file can be opened without the error.

Dear Matsubara-san,

Regarding the tool described in response 8, especially for bullet 2, it is uC/Probe v3.3.

And regarding termination for uC/Probe support for all Cypress kits, it has been informed for other kit (i.e. release note).

However, it has not yet described for CY8CKIT-022...

Will revised its release note accordingly.

Thank you.
