isp targets and Arduino "burn bootloader" fail to work with AVR Dragon as programmer. #46

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Apparently AVRDude causes programmers to "reset", and the AVR Dragon programmer 
takes so long to reset that it is not ready by the time the second phase of the 
"burn bootloader" process comes along.
(we do "set fuses for reprogramming", "burn bootloader", "reset fuses for 
bootloading" as two or three separate AVRDude commands.)  This is especially a 
problem on linux systems.

This problem can be eliminated by introducing (and/or lengthening) the delay 
between the AVRDude commands, or by stringing the whole process together into a 
single AVRDude invoation with multiple fuse-programming steps.

Just another comment to say that this is also a problem on Windows
so it is not confined to Linux.

I posted an AVRDUDE code patch to solve the issue on in the Savannah bug report
and there are also proposed IDE and Makefile arounds in the Arduino
issue link above.

Current summary is that I can't seem to get AVRDUDE maintainers to agree that it
is an AVRDUDE issue that needs to be addressed even though it is only about 6 
lines of code in AVRDUDE to fix it.

the _isp targets now use a single avrdude command to erase, program fuses, 
program bootloader, and set lock bits.  This is also faster.
