Resetting MCU through MikroC bootloader software...?

[dummy_c]

Good day masters!
I been having so much fun using mikroC bootloader. But it's kind of annoying to always press the reset button on the circuit after uploading the hex file unto the device. Would it be nice if the resseting can be incorporated to the MikroC bootloader software?

Thank you and more power....

Hi,

This is a very helpful feature that I will pass it to our developers.
Thank you for your suggestion.

Thank you so much sir...

So what is the current status about this sir?
In the mean time I temporarily used the DTR pin of the serial port to reset the PIC.
I have created a simple VB6 application for this.

Code: Select all

Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
If MSComm1.PortOpen Then MSComm1.PortOpen = False
End
End Sub

Private Sub cmdReset_Click()
On Error GoTo errorhandler
cmdReset.Enabled = False
If MSComm1.PortOpen Then MSComm1.PortOpen = False
MSComm1.CommPort = Text1.Text
MSComm1.PortOpen = True
MSComm1.DTREnable = True
Sleep 1200
MSComm1.DTREnable = False
MSComm1.PortOpen = False
cmdReset.Enabled = True
Exit Sub
errorhandler:
MsgBox "Wrong ComPort number"
cmdReset.Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
With MSComm1
.DTREnable = False
.RTSEnable = False
End With
End Sub

Here is a sample video of a simple application,
