cannot build RTSC Demo

Kurt Jensen

I am trying to run the RTSC Demo described here:

http://rtsc.eclipse.org/docs-tip/Demo_of_RTSC_Project_Creation_in_CCSv4

but, the link fails with fatal error: cannot open file and

"E:/PyrocamIV/workspace/HelloRTSC_configuration/Default/configPkg/linker.cm d": Permission denied

when I look in the folder, linker.cmd is there. when I try to open the file from CCS I get "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have permission to access the item." followed by "Unable to open extgernal editor for E:/PyrocamIV/workspace/HelloRTSC_configuration/Default/configPkg/linker.cmd". When I look at the file it does not have an "open" or "edit" program.

Kurt,

One more question. What is the build profile for your project? You can right click on your project in the C/C++ Projects view and then click Build Properties -> CCS Build -> RTSC.

The build profile is set in the RTSC Build-Profile: combo box of the dialog.

Thanks

Amit

There is no RTSC under CCS Build

Kurt,

Please select your RTSC configuration project - HelloRTSC_configuration.

Thanks

Kurt,

Thanks. We have been able to reproduce this problem. However we do not see this issue when you set the RTSC build profile to debug. Can you confirm whether changing the build profile to debug works for you?

Kurt,

One more question. Do you have cygwin installed in your machine? XDCtools 3.16 uses a stripped down version of cygwin 1.5.25-15 which maybe incompatible with other versions installed in the system.

Hi Kurt,

We have reproduced this problem on WIndows 7 64 bit machines. The 'linker.cmd' file is generated by XDCtools and the permissions are set by the underlying the OS depending on the access control of the user in a particular directory. This problem is not seen on Windows 7 systems when the workspace is created in the users home directory eg. C::\Users\<userid>.

My hunch is that there is a similar user access control issue in your workspace folder. Can you check if you see the same problem if you create your workspace in your home directory ~ C:\Documents and Settings\<userid>? Also, is the drive containing your current workspace - E:/PyrocamIV/workspace - located on the network?

We are working on a fix so that XDCtools generates files with the right permissions. You can track the progress of this bug in the eclipse bugzilla.

Regards

Amit

My OS is Windows XP 32-bit, 3.5 Gb, 2 physical hard drives (2 partitions each C/F D/E).

My workspace is on a local drive purposely separate fromt the C: drive. I am the administrator and have all privileges. XP should not have the UAC problems encountered in WIndows 7.

I am busy on a separate project. Hopefully I will get back to this next week.

OK. I was able to retry this using a workspace under My Documents. And the build completed successfully.

Again, note that my OS is XP. The bug statres WIndows 7 but the problem appears to occur on any operating system.

Thank you for all your help!

Hello,

I have CCSv5.3 with XDCtools 3.16.02.32 & CGTools v 6.1.13 on windows 7 64-bit OS.

I face this message while trying to build the project.

fatal error #6001: cannot open file "./configPkg/linker.cmd": Permission
denied

I tried relocating my workspace to C:\Users\<user id>. I am an admin on my machine. Yet the problem persists. Help please?

Govind.

Govind,
that looks like a cygwin problem we had before. Can you check these two threads and see if they help:

Sasha,

Thanks for your response. I did find a fix for this with XDC 3.16 itself, pertaining to a cygwin cpy command from Dave last weekend. I shall (attempt to) mark this as closed.
