ROMFlash plug-in reference

The ROMFlash plug-in is used by TestDriver to reflash the device with a ROM image. It is installed with TestDriver while installing the SITK. The plug-in comes with default settings, which can be changed later using the config command.

The following properties can be used to configure the plug-in:

Property nameDescription

method

To specify the channel that is used by the plug-in to reflash the device. This property can either be set to "usb" or "serial" depending on the device you are using. The default value for this property is "usb".

rebootExtension

To specify the plug-in that can be used by the ROMFlash plug-in to restart the device for reflashing it. The default value for this property is "com.symbian.driver.core.DeviceReboot."

portNum

To specify the communication port on the PC that is connected serially to the device. This property is applicable only if the method property is set to "serial."

You can change the values of these properties anytime using the config command. For example, the following commands change the values of method and portNum properties to "serial" and "4" respectively:

> testdriver config --plugin com.symbian.driver.plugins.romflash:method=serial

> testdriver config --plugin com.symbian.driver.plugins.romflash:portNum=4
