I assume this script you have supplied goes on the Project/Preferences/MSP430 Hex Utility command line. Since I can find no environment variable labeled BuildArtifactFileName, I will further assume that I must add this variable. What does that line look like. You mention that I must adjust the script for armofd and armhex. I have no idea what armofd is or could be replaced by. I assume that armhex would be replaced by hex2bin but find no utility in the ti folder named hex2bin. I appreciate your effort but I don't speak make file lingo if that is what this is. This was so easy with IARs IDE. Why is this so hard in CCS? Yes, I am frustrated. It only took me about 8 hours to convert two programs from IAR's development system to compile and link in CCS. But now I have spent 8 hours trying to figure out how to get my output from .out to .bin. This should be a thirty second procedure. Again, thanks for trying to help but this only gets me a little closer to a solution. From you answer I at least know I must read and understand the ti's "$script language"(<:.
If you look in the CCS project properties under Build -> Variables and tick the "Show System variables" tick-box, the BuildArtifactFileName variable should be shown. E.g.:DaveG said:Since I can find no environment variable labeled BuildArtifactFileName, I will further assume that I must add this variable.
I think BuildArtifactFileName is a variable automatically added by Eclipse.
