10.2 General procedure
By default, the J-Link DLL comes with a build-in device database that defines which
device names are known and therefore officially supported by the J-Link DLL and
software that uses the J-Link DLL. This list can also be viewed on our website:
http://www.segger.com/jlink_supported_devices.html
It is possible to add new devices to the currently used DLL by specifying them in an
XML file, named JLinkDevices.xml. It is also possible to edit/extend an device from
the built-in device database via this XML file. The DLL is looking for this file in the
same directory where the J-Link settings file is located. The location of the settings
file depends on the IDE / software being used. For more information about where the
settings file is located for various IDEs and software that use the J-Link DLL, please
refer to The J-Link settings file on page 205.
