CCS4 gmake error: missing separator

Brighton Feng
Expert 3410 points

Hi,

In one of my CCS4 projects, I always encounter following error when I “Build Active Project” (I think this is incremental build); but this issue does not happen if I “Rebuild Active Project” (I think this is rebuild all).

My CCS version is 4.2.2.00033. Do you know this issue? Or do you have any suggestion?

Thank you very much!

 

C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\utils\gmake\gmake -k all

src/KeyStone_Multicore_Navigator_drv.pp:61: *** missing separator.  Stop.

Build complete for project Multicore_Navigator

    Brighton,

    This issue is reported in some references in the Eclipse website (here and here). Check line 61 of the file <src/Keystone_Multicore_Navigator_drv.pp>. Usually .pp files are autogenerated, but in this case it seems it may be a leftover from a previous build or compiler version (.pp files can also be output files generated by the compiler's preprocessor). Try to remove it from the project directories or rename it to a different extension and do a clean rebuild. 

    You can also try to delete the directory Debug (or Release, depending on the Active Build Configuration you are using) and do a build to see if it works. Although the Rebuild Active Project erases several output files, some of them still remain in the output directory and may be causing such strange behaviour. 

    Hope this helps,
    Rafael

    Hi, Rafael,

    I tried to delete the file or directory, but the error still happened.

    Attached please find the <src/Keystone_Multicore_Navigator_drv.pp> file, could you help analyze it?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi,

     

    I found it is caused by following code, please note the space in <   >

    #include <cslr_cppidma_rx_flow_config.h    >

    After I remove the space as below, the problem does not happen again.

    #include <cslr_cppidma_rx_flow_config.h>

     

    Thank you very much!

    I ran into this exact issue, Thanks Brighton.

    So it is not a "missing" separator, but an "extra" separator.

    Interesting that the compiler lists the file with the error, but not the line number.

    Mark.

    Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg, I've been clicking and waiting through "Clean" on this project for months! I thought I had to re-install CCS and was putting it off.
