  • [ABANDONED] Select USB device by nickname

    Hello,

    we have multiple JLink devices connected to every PC, because different devices are used for different purpose (device under test, ble_tester, ...). When starting debug session, we select correct device in JLinkGDBServerCL by adding -select USB=SNXXXXXX.

    However such serial number differs for each person, therefore we cannot share configurations.

    I noticed that nickname support was added into JLink, but it seems usable only for seeing which SNR corresponds to which device. It would be helpful to use nickname also to select the device - for example -select USB=BLE_TESTER. This way, everybody could just correctly nickname their devices and all the scripts and configuration would work out of the box.

    Is there currently some way / plan to do it?

    Thanks
    Ivo
