OK Thanks I will update my Visual Studio plugins.

That's mean "v1.2,v1.4,v1.5 = new" and "v1.1 = old" if really this... I gonna remove OLD concept from visual studio and replace FIRST STEP by a FILE SELECTION EX: None,boot_v1.2,boot_v1.5. Where ESPTool gonna take the proper bin file (without file compare to detect OLD and NEW version)

Or OLD Concept was:
on 1.5.0. Old = 1.2
New = 1.4(b1)
on 1.5.2. Old = 1.2
New = 1.5

Hi,

Please use the latest version of boot.bin which is boot_v1.5.bin now.

boot_v1.1 is a very very old version which is deprecated.

So sorry for the inconvenience.

Gen_misc.bat/.sh Version misunderstood??

2016-03-16T07:08:12+08:00

I create Visual Studio 2015 Plugins to compile ESP firmware (http://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1867) and I fix some bug about "version selection" versus "Boot.bin version".

First, I have remark that version of RTOS 1.3.0 was purged of "*.old.*.ld" inside LD Folder. On Non-OS 1.5.0 and 1.5.2, the files still there.

Now if you retake all operation from Gen_misc.bat the first step is:

Code:

Please follow below steps(1-5) to generate specific bin(s):
STEP 1: choose boot version(0=boot_v1.1, 1=boot_v1.2+, 2=none)

OK, if you choose boot_v1.1, it's gonna COMPILE with old file inside LD Folder. But when it's gonna be time to flash, it's where that I find a little weird. It's beautiful to COMPILE with old file, but we don't have Boot_v1.1.bin.

Now we face two possible problem:
[*]Programmer forget to update version string inside Gen_misc.bat

[*]Old boot version is obsolete because we don't have proper boot binary file and programmer forget to remove from menu.

Thanks
Waiting answer
