Alan,

Sharp's support department would be a good place to try.

You can check the following FAQ link for information about JTAGs that are recommended by Logic:

Logic developers currently use Cygwin and GNU Tools for LogicLoader development.

Feel free to post back here if you have further questions.

Hi,

Is it possible to get the code for open-video, ifconfig, drawflag as that will get me 75% of the way? I still have not been able to find any samples and have not received any replies yet to a similar question on the Sharp site. I must admit to being surprised at the lack of example code - my project also involves a TI dsp and there's quite a lot of example code for that.

Hi,

Also is it fairly easy to set up Realview together with Multi-ICE for this board?

Alan

Also ... I see that ARM have a network connected ICE RealView ICE rather than the parallel port Multi-ICE. Has RealView ICE been tested with this board?

Alan

Hello Alan,

Just a short remark in case you didn't find code examples suitable for your needs.
I have written simple bitmap handling that takes as input a modified .BMP file formatted as a structure.
I also have written the VC++ code that converts a usual BMP file to a C file that can be directly compiled and linked with your code.
If you are interested, just send me an email (patrick@defibtech.com) and I'll send you the sources rightaway.

Three remarks:
1 - I use a LPD 3"5 display in 16 BPP mode and I only handle this but this should not be a difficult mod;
2 - There is room for improvement in the BMP drawing speed which I handle in an unusual direction due to the screen being used in landscape instead of its native portrait.
3 - I use the IAR EWARM toolchain so there might be needs for slight adjustments of the syntax. (This toolchain does not allow straight insertion of a binary file in the generted code, hence my VC++ mod to generate a C file that can be compiled.)

Regards
Patrick
