Is it possible for the CCS 6.2 "Stack Usage" view to use text "indirect" files like the cg_xml call_graph utility?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

I notice that CCS 6.2.0.00050 has a new "Stack Usage" view, which wasn't in previous CCS versions.

The Stack Usage view warns you if a function makes "Indirect Calls", and by right clicking on a function in the view you can add annotations to specify which indirect functions get called to assist in getting the correct stack usage reported.

CCS 6.2 doesn't appear to contain any help for the "Stack Usage" view, and from looking the annotations get stored in the workspace .metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.projects\<project_name>\com.ti.ccstudio.project.ui.views\stackUsageannotated.dat file. i.e. if create a new workspace and import the project any annotations added in the Stack Usage view will be lost.

Is it possible to configure the Stack Usage view to read the Indirect Calls from a text file, in a similar way to the cg_xml call_graph utility?

  • Today there is no option to configure where annotated file is stored and yes you are correct in that if workspace is switched, then annotated file will not be found. I am assuming that you would like to have an option to store it in the project itself, based on your reference to cgxml. I have filed an enhancement for this issue and to update documentation.

    Yes, that was the option I was looking for.
