XFLASH -o Option not Saving to File Topic is solved

[RitchRock]

Trying to save to file using XFlash command:

Code: Select all

xflash program.xe -o image-file

But Xflash ends with "problem connecting to device". Isn't the -o option suppose to output to file? Is my command formatted incorrectly?

Here is the --verbose output:

Code: Select all

xrun: Problem in connection to device

To add, if I use the "output to file" option in the IDE, instead of command line tools, I get "xrun: Problem in connection to device". I'm on Windows 10.

It works if the device is attached - I figured that since I was writing to a file this didn't need to be the case.

Try using the --noinq option for xflash.
