Compiler/TMDX570LC43HDK: A little bit of confusion on available compilers for TMDX570LC43HDK

Part Number: TMDX570LC43HDK

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi,

I'm a little bit confused about the different compilers available to work on this board (TMDX570LC43HDK), considering for example:

  • arm_15.12.6LTS                                           from TI
  • gcc-arm-none-eabi-6-2017-q2-update    from ARM

which one is better to use and why considering as target board Hercules TMDX570LC43HDK ?

The gcc-arm-none-eabi-6-2017-q2-update is installed on the PC where I've CCSV6 but it is not recognized by CCSV6,

there is a way to choose this compiler in CCSV6?

It is possible to use TI compiler also outside of CCSV6 (I need to use it together with an hypervisor)?

Thanks

Antonio

    If you are using source code from elsewhere that was developed with a GCC compiler, then you should probably use the ARM GCC compiler.  Otherwise, it is a matter of preference.  Other members of the community are welcome to add their opinions.

    Please see if the tips in the article Compiler Installation and Selection are helpful.

    I am not familiar with hypervisor.  But you can use the TI ARM compiler from the command line.  Please see the ARM compiler manual for the details on the build options.

    Thanks and regards,
