I would like to teach my Arduino IDE to use my AVR Dragon's HVPP (High Voltage Parallel Programming) interface to upload compiled sketches to my boards (an ATMega1284P-PU in this case, supported by mighty1284p).
Working setup so far:
Arduino IDE with mighty1284p, I added this to the boards.txt of mighty1284p to support my uC's internal-RC-oscillator clockrates of 1MHz and 8MHz.
avrdude can talk to the m1284p and set the fuses:
avrdude -c dragon_pp -P usb -p m1284p -U lfuse:w:0x62:m -U hfuse:w:0x99:m -U efuse:w:0xFF:m -U lock:w:0xFF:m I can compile / check a sketch successfully, then upload the temporarily created .hex manually to the 1284 using the Dragon:
cd /var/folders/px/xmf1dygn6p5_fn1hh05c6gyr0000gn/T/build4082512148637729777.tmp/ avrdude -p m1284p -c dragon_pp -P usb -U flash:w:Fade.cpp.hex This works but includes the manual step of cding into the temporary build directory and manually uplading the .hex.
How would I use the AVR Dragon's HVPP directly from within the Arduino IDE? I have added a section to programmers.txt as such:
dragonpp.name=AVR Dragon HVPP dragonpp.communication=usb dragonpp.protocol=dragon_pp dragonpp.force=false which I assumed would be correct for the above avrdude parameters.
Within the IDE I choose Tools - Programmer - AVR Dragon HVPP, the Upload. The debug output shows this:

Thank you. So the -p parameter is correct, but -c and -P are wrong.
Any ideas how I could add the Dragon correctly?
