It seems since the last Simplicity Studio update, all my function pointer typedefs that return a bool are being flagged as syntax errors. I'm not sure exactly which update, but it was either the last one or the one before, have just finally decided to make a post about it now.

I'm compiling with C99 enabled.

Basically, this is ok.

#include <stdint.h>


typedef int (*cb_int)(void);
typedef uint8_t (*cb_uint8)(void);

 

But this flags a syntax error

 

#include <stdbool.h>


typedef bool (*cb_bool)(void);

 

Am I missing something that makes this error valid? As an example, in dmadrv.h, the DMADRV_Callback_t typedef is now being flagged.

Hi,

I understand this might be a little off topic but after developing using the energy profiler in simplicity I can't really imagine any other way.
Which got me to wonder; is there any way I can hookup a different power drain to a WSTK and use the energy profiler? 

If not are there any tools available on the market that offer a similar solution? 

I have the latest Simplicity Studio 4 and every time I start it I get a notice which says "Updates to Simplicity Studio are available.  Would you like to update now?". After pressing the "Review Updates" button I then get taken to the Package Manager page which, under "Product Updates" says "No Product Updates packages available". The net result of this will be that I will train myself to press the "Skip Updates" button and so miss any actual update which may be applicable.

Is there something I can set up to avoid this issue?

Thanks....Simon

Hello everyone, I use Simplicity studio v4 on Linux mint 19 and I have a problem with "SiAgent launched but did not report its status. Please check your installation", how do I get rid of it so I can continue to compile the code?

What is the easiest way to clone my existing IDE environment?

Can I just drop the whole workspace folder onto my new drive?

Is there a simple way to migrate example code to a new board?

I am using an industrial grade version of the BB3, but all the code examples are written for the commercial grade part.

I tried to change the device in Properties->C/C++ Build->Kit / Part / SDK, but the software will not me select any other device. This seems to be because a development board was originally selected for the project and I cannot deselect it.

Unless I'm missing something here, Simplicity Studio seems to have been written for Silicon Labs development boards rather than creating custom products.

How do I set the cell size so it persists when I change it to 1 byte? I'm getting tired of it defaulting to 4 bytes all the time.

Trying to make the switch to Ubuntu for my daily driver, and ran into a bit of a wall. The compiler is complaining that it can't find 'helper.h', although 'helper.h' is in the 'inc' directory targeted by a '-I' argument being passed into arm-none-eabi.gcc.

Building file: ../src/myfile.c
Invoking: GNU ARM C Compiler
arm-none-eabi-gcc {GCC Flags} -I"/home/user/Documents/Github/Project/inc" {More -I Includes} {More GCC Flags}
Building file: ../src/myfile.c
../src/myfile.c:9:10: fatal error: helper.h: No such file or directory
 #include "helper.h"
          ^~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make: *** [src/myfile.o] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Additionally, I verified in the configuration settings for the project, though I'm guessing if these were messed up the '-I' argument being passed into the compiler would be messed up and not correctly translate to "/home/user/Documents/Github/Project/inc":

"Properties" => "C/C++ General" => "Path and Symbols" => "Includes" tab => "GNU C" section => "/${ProjName}/inc"
"Properties" => "C/C++ Build" => "Settings" => "Tool Settings" tab => "GNU ARM C Compiler" section => "Includes" subsection => ${workspace_loc:/${ProjName}/inc}"

 

Are there any particular file ownership, permission, or other vodoo I need to get set up to get this working on Linux? The project repo when cloned to a Simplicity Studio installation on a Windows machine can build without issue.

Thanks!

Tried installing Simplicity Studio for the first time... Crashes immediately;  I can see the dialog asking me to enter my email address, then... wham!

Tried running as admin, tried starting with -clean, tried starting with -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.IEVersion=9999 (all these suggestion from other threads)

No luck.

Help>

I have recently installed Simplicity Studio from scratch but the application notes do not show up. Is this intended behaviour?

Hi all, 

My set-up consists of EFM32 GG starter kit and EFM32GG980F1024 controller. I have an old project that I was using this starter kit to program the controller. After many tries to get my old project to work I give-up and started trying to create a new and copy the code from the old one. 

1. I am not abled to set EFM32GG980F1024 as a target part. I accepts only EFM32GG990F1024 as valid one.

2. Seems to be a bug in configurator project using Gecko SDK. It not labelling pins in the pinmap view anymore. Works fine if using 32 bit MCU SDK.

Am I missing something? Seems like I am getting in trouble after every studio update. : (

Hello Silicon Labs team:

I would like to know what are the options for developers / engineers to launch Simplicity Studio over a docker container. I think that this would be a neat solution for those engineers that want to speed up the sharing process if there is any time that developers needs to do it and a great advantage of being able to isolate all the embedded environment. 

I created a docker running the OS that you support and installed the corresponding packages in order to work properly. Udev rules have been installed on the docker image as well as in the host machine. 

I succesfully launched the application, however, I do still have some problems to build and run my firmware. 

As far as I know, docker does not supoort udev, then, in order to check activities from the device inside the docker instance, a mapping is required. However, I am not sure from what dev folder under /dev/ the device is certainly mounted, how can I know that? I tend to think that is mounting over /dev/usb/ and this is the first option that I chose to work with. Nevertheless, it wasn't worked. 

If I run my docker container with privileged access, I can recognize the JLink, however, Simplicity Studio is not able to detect exactly the development board I am using. 

Temporarly, what I did was select the device myself and build the blink example project associated with. However, when I tried to debug (using a debug profile) the following message appears: 

SiAgent launched but did not report its status.  Please check your installation. 

For me, it looks like the device is not mapping properly into the docker container, then, when it comes to debug it doesn't know what do to. 

In the debug adapter console I can see that inspect_emdll is using the right -sn, however, the results on the docker containing are diverse from the host machine. 

Here is the output over the container:

Display nothing...

Here is the output over the host machine, it is not all the output but in a nutshell however, I can see my device successfully recognized :

deviceCount=1

device(xxxxxxx) {
  serialNumber=xxxxxxxx
Connecting to device with serial number xxxxxxx.. ok.
FirmwareString is Energy Micro EFM32 compiled date...
EMDLL version:
J-Link DLL Version: version
  AdapterType=JLink
  adapterLabel=J-Link Silicon Labs
  adapterName= adapterName
  adapterDate=0/0/0
  ... and so on
}

During the run process of the application, the system outputs this:

ERROR  | ar.cdt.project.utils.AbstractSdkProvider | Worker-6             -- SDK location does not exist: null

Thanks in advance

Best regards. 

Hi,

SImplicity Studio seems to not apply updates and ask me at every start to update the same stuff (same version etc).

Also, when I click the Update button in the top left corner of the launcher page, Simplicity Studio hangs for several minutes (up to hours).

Is there some kind of cache to delete or something else I can do?

Thanks

Hi

I have the bgm13p22 radio board soc hooked up to a custom PCB board and is receiving power from external source of 3.3V . I have st the switch in "BAT" mode. A STK/WSTK debug Adapter hooked up to the "Debug connector" and "Simplicity Connector" pins. In the Device Configuration window how should I configure the device.

I have set J-link speed to Auto, Addressing  Mode: Serial Number

In Adapter configuration tab what should I set Debug Mode?

And Is there any installation package to be installed?

EFR32 2400/169 MHz - SLWSTK6065B eval board (Latest Simplicity Studio, ARM v7.2.1). Setting the frequency to any freq between 110 - 130 MHz gives this error. The module should technically support 110 - 191 MHz according to the datasheet (Frequency Synthesizer table). Would like to test the RX range for the lower bands so please let me know if this is software error or?

Setting it out of range on the higher side does give a definite error (No valid LODIV value possible for channel...). Below seems to be the main issue.

raise ValueError("field value '{}' exceeds range of {} bits".format(fieldValue,
ValueError: field value '273067' exceeds range of 18 bits
