Problem when opening System Analyzer from binary file

Hello,

I'm using the CCS v6.0 of Eclipse and I work on a logger subject.

I'm retrieving logs from my DSP and then create a binary file with all my logs. What I want to do is to open my binary file via System Analyzer. So I do "Tools/System Analyzer/Open from binary" and it should open a window where I have to put my different file and folder (.bin, .out, .uia.xml...) repositories before launching the System Analyzer session.

At first I had no trouble launching a system Analyzer session following these previous steps. But for an unknown reason, opening the "open from binary" window doesn't work anymore. In fact it displays the "Progress Information" window where you can see the load of "Discovering analysis activities", then this window disappear and instead of opening the "open from binary" window, nothing happen.

I tried to relaunch CCS several times, I tried to connect my evaluation module board, I also tried to open it with the CCS v5.5 from another computer and I noticed the same problem.

If someone could give me a hand on this issue it would be great?

Thanks,

Nad

  • Hi Nad,

    Are you using a custom UIA configuration, or are you the uia.xml, rta.xml, and .out files in the same directory?  There is an issue with the custom UIA configuration, which requires a CCS patch.  See this post for more information:

    http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/tirtos/f/355/p/367769/1292932.aspx#1292932

    One thing you can try doing is removing the dvt directory from your CCS workspace, and then restarting CCS.

    Best regards,

  • Hi Janet,

    I didn't precise it on the first post but I use the CCS v6.0 BETA.

    To answer your question, I use a custom UIA configuration and my uia.xml, rta.xml and .out are also in the same directory.But I don't think I need any CCS patch to make it work because it has already worked on this CCS version (and I didn't use no patch).

    Plus I removed the dvt directory from my workspace as you suggested but the problem persists.

    Now the system analyzer works on the CCS v5.5 (without doing anything special to make it work), but the problem remains on CCS v6.0 beta.

  • Hi Nad,

    When it did work with CCS v6, were you using the custom configuration?

    Can you try it without the custom configuration, leaving the xml files in the same directory as the .out, and see if it works?  If that is the case, I would try the patch.  Also, what version of UIA are you using?

    Thanks,

  • Hi Janet,

    Indeed when it was working with CCS v6, I was using the custom configuration.

    I would like to try what you suggest me but as I wrote before on the first post, I can't reach the "Open from binary" window , so I can't set any configuration and can't launch no system analyzer from binary session.

    Lastly I use the UIA 1.4.0.06 version in my project.

  • Hi Nad,

    I am not able to reproduce this problem with CCS 6.0.1.00040.  With CCS 6.0.0.00190, however, I have problems trying to open a binary file using a custom UIA config.  The error is like the one I referred to in a link to another forum post in my earlier post.  It sounds to me like an issue with CCS and not UIA.  I would try updating to the latest GA of CCS, if possible.  Do you know the version of the CCS 6 beta you are using?

    Thanks,

  • Hi Janet,

    Sorry for replying so late, I didn't work on this topic for several weeks. I was trying different things with Clement recently and we found out that changing workspace made the Open from binary session work.

    By taking a closer look, we saw that the problem was the .metadata. Indeed when we delete it from our workspace, it does work anew.

    Thank you for your help Janet,
