Unable to compile Starterware projects.

Lali,

I tried to change to release build as below:

Project->Properties->Build->configuration to Release build.

Click on apply and then OK.

Its not changing to release build.  If I come back, it is back to Debug [Active] hence this is not helping me.

Regards

Srinivasa

Srinivasa,

My apologies if I misunderstood, but you are setting it like the below screenshot? Or you will have to go into "manage configurations" and put "Release" as set Active.

Lali

Hi Lali,

I tried with different project "rtcClock".
In this also I need to modify

Include search path under Build->ARM Compiler->Include options and
File Search path under Build->ARM Linker->File Search Path


and finally the same error again. This time it is Active->Release build;

find the errors below:

Srinivasa,

You have also applied the BBB patch from the release download page?

Lali

Lali,

Step 2 did not work for me:

Step 1 : Download the tar.gz file and keep it in the existing StarterWare installation directory.
Step 2 : unzip and untar the downloaded file and Select 'Yes' when asked to merge any folder or copy
and replace a file.

I have unzipped it to a folder and copied all the files from patch file to the respective folder.

Still having the same problem.

Srinivasa

Srinivasa,

I was able to import the RTC project, change the build config to Release and compile it without errors. Not sure why you are having issues. Can you try to import the RTC project, just change the build config to Release without making any changes to the search paths, and try?

Lila,

Upon importing the project from the below path "C:\ti\AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01\build\armv7a\cgt_ccs\am335x\beaglebone\rtc"
are you modifying paths under compiler and linker section?

1. Include search path under Build->ARM Compiler->Include options and
2. File Search path under Build->ARM Linker->File Search Path.

I am doing this because compiler is not able to find header files and linker is not able to find library files.

I need to do for all projects not only rtc. I am not sure why I should do this or what is wrong on my PC?


The below steps should directly work:

Install AM335X starterware.
Apply BBB patch.
Import project from "C:\ti\AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01\build\armv7a\cgt_ccs\am335x\beaglebone\rtc"


Let me unistall and install, will try again.


Regards
Srinivasa

Done below steps:



Uninstall and Install AM335X starterware.
Apply BBB patch.
Import project from "C:\ti\AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01\build\armv7a\cgt_ccs\am335x\beaglebone\rtc"

This time no modifications to any compiler or linker path settings:

Here is the error dump:

It is not able to find drivers.lib and other libraries.


Where is it installed on your PC? Can you just tell me exact path of installation on your PC?

Link for downloading AM335X Starterware:
software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html
File : Windows Installer
Patch : Beaglebone black patch

Hope this is correct. Share your pc installation path.

Srinivasa

Srinivasa,

I'm not sure as to why the paths are giving you trouble, I did not have to change them in my setup. Also note that there is a newer version of Starterware that is part of the Sysbios Industrial SDK 2.1.0.1 which was released recently. Can be downloaded here.
