8.8.1.1.2.2.8. Flash¶

class Flash¶

isFlashSupported() → bool¶

Determines if flash is supported for the current device.

if session.flash.isFlashSupported():
    # perform flash operations...

Returns:: true if flash is supported on the current device, false otherwise.
Return type:: bool

performOperation(operation) → None¶

Performs the specified flash operation. A list of all available operations for the current device can be obtained by calling :py:meth:~Flash.listSupportedOperations.

# Erases the flash (assuming the operation is supported and named "Erase")
session.flash.performOperation("Erase")

Parameters:: operation (str) -- The operation to be performed.
Return type:: None

listSupportedOperations() → str¶

Queries the list of flash operations supported for the current device.

# Print the list of supported operations
print(session.flash.listSupportedOperations())

Return type:: str

multiLoadStart() → None¶

Should be called to start a multi-load operation. The flash manager will only erase the flash on the first program load. Once the Flash Manger receives this call, users will be free to call :py:meth:~Memory.loadProgram and :py:meth:~Memory.loadBinaryProgram as many times as needed to write to the Flash.

session.flash.multiLoadStart()

# multiple program loads...

session.flash.multiLoadEnd()

Return type:: None

multiLoadEnd() → None¶

Called to finish a multi-load operation. The flash manager will return to default mode (erasing flash based on user settings).

session.flash.multiLoadStart()

# multiple program loads...

session.flash.multiLoadEnd()

Return type:: None
