Teensy Loader and Teensy Compiler Workflow Discussion

Maybe also close the Teensy loader program. I did find once or twice where it did not release the port in time. Sometimes it takes several seconds to do so. I dont say there is an issue, just try it seeing that we are hunting a ghost here.

Yes different discussion but a good one. I've split this into a new thread because I would like to keep this discussion alive. The vm/teensy stuff is still up for discussion.

I asked Paul about the loader and also why it has to appear during compile and not only when uploading. It sounds like the teensy usb system can only handle one board connected to the pc at a time and that he feels the loader is better left hanging around after every compile. 

I didn't fully understand what he was saying, he is a clever chap!

Anyway, maybe some options so you can try things out. I might prefer to get the loader code and implement directly in vm but don't have time to find it.

I don't get any messages from the teensy loader so can't know when to close it.

I have other question about teensy loader work with VM plugin. Is it possible to disable automatic upload mode for teensy and set manual mode programming with button on a board?

  If there wouldn't be a possibility to disable in Visual Studio, maybe VM plugin has config or script for generating remote commands for Teensy Loader? I see that VM sends to Teensy Loader remote command to enable auto mode. This is a part of my Loader log:

Code
Select All
23:16:41: remote cmd: "file:sterownik.hex"
23:16:41: File "sterownik.hex". 6900 bytes, 5% used
23:16:41: remote cmd: "status"
23:16:41: status data sent
23:16:41: remote cmd: "auto:on"
23:16:41: remote connection closed
23:16:41: remote connection opened
23:16:41: remote cmd: "status"

Vm runs the teensy loader exe because it is registered in the hardware/teensy/boards.txt as the "postcompilescript". So vm runs it. You could switch the loader out for your own exe or remove the boards property

Hope that helps
