Last time out we got hello world running on the PROTO-062-4343W kit. That was a lot of fun for me… because I have that kit! Actually, I have about 20 of them because they arrived too late for the training event last week. But most of you don’t have 20 kits so, today, I am going to show you how to re-target an application to another kit.

 

All ModusToolbox applications have a BSP. It is the thing that defines the PSoC device, the memory layout, the connection to the Wi-Fi device over SDIO, the CapSense buttons and sliders, the I2C and UART peripherals, and the mechanical buttons and LEDs. We give these things standard names, like CYBSP_USER_LED, so that applications using those names can run on just about any kit even if the physical pins connected to the LED are different. So, to re-target our application we only have to do two things; add a new BSP to the project and tell the build tools to use it instead of the original BSP. Some examples actually include more than one BSP, for convenience, so you can often skip the first step!

 

I’ve been writing about CY8CPROTO-063-BLE kit recently (github.com/cypresssemiconductorco/TARGET_CY8CPROTO-063-BLE) so let’s switch our program to that one. You can read about the BSP on the GitHub site or you can just get on with it and download the thing (as you can tell, I’m a type-first, read-later guy). Just jump into the libs folder and clone the BSP.

As you can see, you have added a new TARGET folder. Great, now let’s build for it. I can almost feel you gearing up for a stream of edit-this and move-that with a little bit of delete-the-other and a frustrating time. Not exactly, just add the name of the target to the build command.

Now you can just run ”make qprogram” and hello world will run just the same way as it did on the original kit. That was cool, let’s do it again!

 

When you type as haphazardly as I do, that extra text at the end of the command is just asking for a typo. So I need a more permanent solution. It’s easy to do… just open the Makefile in a text editor, look for the line “TARGET=CY8CPROTO-062-4343W” and change the name of the board to CY8CPROTO-063-BLE, like this.

 

################################################################################

# Basic Configuration

################################################################################

 

# Target board/hardware

# TARGET=CY8CPROTO-062-4343W

TARGET=CY8CPROTO-063-BLE

 

Now you can build and program your kit in one step with the almost-impossible-to-mistype command “make program”. You’ll never guess how to go back to the other kit!

OK, that’s enough typing for me. Next time I’ll show off the new GUI tools we have created to automate all this make shenanigans.
