Re: [Openocd-development] TCL Memory tests
Oyvind, Agreed about the speed and that is why I did not write a flash test. If your RAM is working on your target your better to write a flash test that resides in your target RAM. However it is tough to test your RAM if your not sure it works. I had a board that had an issue with the RAM and that is why I wrote these tests so I could figure out what was wrong.

[Openocd-development] TCL Memory tests
All, I've been using openOCD for a little over a week now and I'm quite impressed. I've decided to write a series of memory tests for it using the TCL interface. I've never used TCL before and I do not have much experience with openOCD yet so I'm sure my implementation is less than perfect. I've attached the memory tests to this email. I'm hoping others will find them useful and give me additional suggestions or help in cleaning up the TCL code! One thing I do not like is I had to set a local variable in each test for the BUSSIZE as the global variable TCL option did not seem to work for me. Again the attached file is untested and written by a novice (me). I will post any fixes or changes I make in the future. The memory tests are a port (algorithms 100% copied) from the following site and are public domain: http://www.netrino.com/Embedded-Systems/How-To/Memory-Test-Suite-C Regards, Shane memtest.tcl Description: Tcl script ___ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
