V2.1 Beta 2 - Dan Bielecki - Jan 30 19:56:00 2003

Guys,

Whats the description of the following download error codes?

Error 219
Error 220

I got 220 last night, and today, I just received error 219.
Same compiled project mind ya...nothings changed since then.

Hummm...maybe if I try once a day the error number will reduce by one each
time and eventually end up to be zero errors and a successful download will
result. ;- )

I upgraded yesterday and, so far, all looks good. No problems (and I do
like the automatic re-verify if it fails the first time)

Still, the compile time remains painfully slow (I timed it at 2 minutes 42
seconds for a 28K program with optimization on, on an Athlon 1.8 gig
machine) and that window jumping is *still* annoying! :-)

We've added new diagnostic information that gets displayed
whenever a download problem occurs. That particular error code is
the average retry period when the downloader is cycling through
its halt sequence. Units are in milliseconds. The numbers don't
mean much unless you can see the downloader source code.

As I said in another message, we've had essentially zero luck
reproducing some of the download problems that have been reported
on this forum. So by adding more diagnostic information in the new
IDE, the hope is we can better understand what the issues are.

Ken,

The docs aren't part of Beta 2, says so on the download site. .db.

I found that comment so very funny you would not believe it.
I would love to see the code!
You KNOW that by now, dont you?.

Frank,

The OPEN DOWNLOAD FILE icon is disabled.

Is it now a new standard to always write code and compile instead of
downloading existing compiled projects?
Not that it matters much in my case...since my chip wont even accept a
download even if the icon worked.
(Thats sarcasm by the way....)

I understand that. But I installed it over the top of my existing
installation and it deleted the docs that were already there! Someone needs
to fix the installer!

I'll have to check with the person who is in charge of the
installer, but I believe it's doing what it's supposed to do. You
would need to save the old docs in another directory if you
install beta 2.

That's a switch in the installer config. Maybe it should be turned off
until the new docs are ready, so no one is left out in the cold

Until we post the new V2.1 docs, the previous V2.1 versions are
still on the web site as part of the beta 1 distribution:

No. There has been no change in the Open Download icon.

The only change was to automatically open the editor window when
you start the IDE.

Whenever the editor window is open, it controls the opening of new
projects, and the Open Download icon on the downloader window is
disabled. When you close the editor window, the Open Download icon
is enabled. This behavior is common to V2.0 and V2.1.

I can see how users might be confused by this, so we may return to
the previous startup, where the editor window was not opened
automatically.

The only reason for the change was that newbies were having
trouble understanding that the editor window needed to be opened
separately.
