1 This file includes highlights of the changes made in the
2 OpenOCD 0.5.0 source archive release. See the repository
3 history for details about what changed, including bugfixes
4 and other issues not mentioned here.
7 New driver for "Bus Pirate"
8 Rename various commands so they're not JTAG-specific
9 There are migration procedures for most of these, but you should
10 convert your scripts to the new names, since those procedures
11 will not be around forever.
12 jtag jinterface ... is now adapter_name
13 jtag_khz ... is now adapter_khz
14 jtag_nsrst_delay ... is now adapter_nsrst_delay
15 jtag_nsrst_assert_width ... is now adapter_nsrst_assert_width
21 - "ejtag_srst" variant removed. The same functionality is
22 obtained by using "reset_config none".
23 - added PIC32MX software reset support, this means srst is not
24 required to be connected anymore.
27 New "stellaris recover" command, implements the procedure
28 to recover locked devices (restoring non-volatile
29 state to the factory defaults, including erasing
30 the flash and its protection bits, and possibly
31 re-enabling hardware debugging).
32 PIC32MX now uses algorithm for flash programming, this
33 has increased the performance by approx 96%.
35 Board, Target, and Interface Configuration Scripts:
36 Support IAR LPC1768 kickstart board (by Olimex)
38 Core Jim/TCL Scripting:
39 New "add_script_search_dir" command, behaviour is the same
40 as the "-s" cmd line option.
