Problem with profiling code with UIA in CCS5.5

Hello,

I am trying to profile my code for C6657.

Using CCS5.5.077, C/C++ compiler v7.4.7.and System Analyzer v UIA_1.03.01.08.

After reading sugesstions in forum-thread:

UIA duration view,

http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/306975.aspx

about UIA-Tutorials und AIU_UG, I can get Execution Graph and Duration analyze working.

Trying to profile, I've defined entry and exit function- hooks as described in spruh43e (Using System Analyzer) page 80, cap 4.13.3 and in project properties I have configured exit, enter hooks with proper names and address as parameter.

Trying to build, I get the linker errors:

undefined first referenced

symbol in file

--------- ----------------

ti_uia_events_UIAProfile_enterFunctionAdrs__C ./main.obj

ti_uia_events_UIAProfile_exitFunctionAdrs__C ./main.obj

error #10234-D: unresolved symbols remain

Can you please show me how can I fix that issue?

Regards

Jan,

I am not sure if you already solved this issue, but I couldn't get this error using the Tutorial1 example project.

I followed the steps How to Build the System Analyzer Tutorial Projects and How to Run the System Analyzer Tutorial 1 Project of the page below:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/SystemAnalyzerTutorial1

Then I added the entries shown at the reference you sent in the middle of my main() code:

        while (tutorialPhase < 5){
                Log_write1(UIABenchmark_start, (xdc_IArg)"running");
                switch(tutorialPhase){
                case 1: tutorial_1A(); break;
                case 2: tutorial_1B(); break;
                case 3: tutorial_1C(); break;
                case 4: tutorial_1D(); break;
                }
                tutorialPhase = 0;
         Log_write1(UIABenchmark_stop, (xdc_IArg)"running");

I also added the proper #include entries at the top of the main.c file:

#include <ti/uia/events/UIABenchmark.h>
#include <xdc/runtime/Log.h>

And the path to the XDC tools to the compiler include options

This way everything built fine and I could see the events on the Live Session...

... and the Duration views:

You can use the same example project and try to analyze the differences between this and your custom project.

Hope this helps,

Rafael

Hello Rafael,

thanks for your mail.

But as I tried to check my project before, the Duration and Execution Graph are perfectly working, In LiveSession log I get all the log info that I need.

My problem was to get profiling working:

Trying to profile, I've defined entry and exit function- hooks as described in spruh43e (Using System Analyzer) page 80, cap 4.13.3 I get the linker errors:
