uVision4 Beta bug: unable to download application

David Planella

Hi,

The following problem renders the uV4 Bete IDE unusable for downloading and debugging an application with my setup.

Note that I have installed the uV4 Beta under the same folder where the toolchain is installed, as recommended.

I would be grateful for any information regarding this bug, especially any about workarounds.

Thanks.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a working project (formerly configured for debugging and flash download with ULINK under uV3).

2. Build the project.

3. Connect the ULINK to the computer and the target.

4. Press the LOAD button on the toolbar in order to download the application to FLASH memory.

Result:

1. An error dialog with the followong message pops up:

"Error: Flash Download failed - This old version of 'S166.DLL' is incompatible with uVision (UV3.EXE).

Please use a consistent installation!"

2. After acknowledging the message by clicking 'OK', the dialog is closed, and the application cannot be downloaded ito FLASH.

Current setup:

System: Windows XP Professional, SP2

ULINK: S/N U1948C7E

IDE-Version:
µVision V4.00 Beta 1

    Tamir,

    I do not think this has anything to do with "how dangerous" installing uv4 under the same folder as the toolchain might be, buth rather with DLL compatibility problems between uv4.exe, uv4.dll or msvcr80.dll with S166.DLL.

    In fact, the uv4 IDE is installed separately from the toolchain in its own folder, in exactly the same way as uV3. In my system it looks like this:

    D:\Keil
      +-- C166
      |
      +-- uV3
      |
      +-- uV4

    Even the dlls are all installed locally in its own folder (again, as with uv3), so I do not think this can disturb or be influenced by an existing uv3 setup (unless any registry settings are shared).
