MSP430 GANG with Borland C++ builder - pruttlanda - Aug 12 9:49:57 2008

Hi,

Im trying to get MSP-GANG430 to work in BC++ version 6.
After converting the lib with following:

coff2omf.exe GANG430.lib GANG430converted.lib -v -lib:ms

Borland then accept the lib. But during make of the project I now end=20
up in=20

[Linker Error] Unresolved external '__stdcall InitCom(char *, long)'=20
referenced from D:\VSS\GDBPROD\MAIN.OBJ

What can be the problem?

Trying to do a one-by-one integrated production programmer equipment.=20
Is it maybe better to use for example MSP-FET430UIF. Is there any=20
software package avalible for that one?

Regards Bj=F6rn

I am not entirely sure what you are trying to do but I assume that you are
trying to write your own control application for the GANG430 programmer.

There is documentation for the DLL that TI supply with the gang programmer
in the user manual SLAU101 f>
This DLL includes the function InitCom() amongst others.

Ian

I have solved the problem by loading the GANG430.dll dynamic instead=20
of static. Then the .lib file is not needed.=20

The lib doesn't work in Borland builder 6 and Builder 2007. I think=20
its more a microsoft vs. borland thing than a fault in the=20
GANG430.lib.
