xTimeComposer(13.2.1): Simulator loopback fail

Post by babazaroni »

On the mac, when using the simulator and specifying a loopback connection, a failure to find the loopbackPort.so fails. Looks like it may be trying to find a dll, instead of an so.

Both 13.2.1 and 13.2.2 fail loopback simulator.

Here is the error message:

.gdbinit: No such file or directory.
connect --sim "--plugin" "LoopbackPort.dll" "-port PORT_SPI_MISO 1 0 -port PORT_I2S_DAC1 1 0 " "--plugin" "" "" "--gdb-mi-output"

xsim: error: C59076: problem loading file: : Could not open input file
xsim: error: C59076: problem loading file: : Could not open input file

Have you tried from the xTIMEcomposer tool instead of from the command line?

Right click on the binary in the bin directory within the project and select Run as--> Run configurations. This will open up Run configurations menu. Select Run on Simulator option. Click on the Simulator tab and select the Enable Signal Tracing checkbox. Check the Pins checkbox in the System Trace options (per device). Click the Add button, check the Ports checkbox and click Apply. Select the Loopback tab and check the Enable Pin Connections checkbox. Now select the ports you want to loopback.

Hope this helps.
