CCS v4 Build Failed - MSP-EXP430F5438A

Looks like you include the wrong include files.
The fact that you didn't get compiler errors about unknown symbols indicates that yoiu're including files which declare teh symbols, but in a way that they are declared as external unresolved symbols. But no global symbols are created.
Normally, the symbols should be decalred in a way so that they are directly resolved. Since the mechanism for doing so is compiler-dependent, this may fail if you use the wrong include files.

Alternatively it may be that you used precompiled object files or a library, in which these symbols are unresolved global symbols while your compiler does nto generate these global symbols. Hnce the linker cannot resolve them.

Often it helps to create a blank project and copy the source files in there instead of just copying the existing demo project. Normally, it shouldn't be necessary then to add the default include path to the project.

Hi,

I found an error that showed up in the console but did not show up in the Workspace Log (Error or Problems Tab).  So I missed the error about NOP is declared multiple tome for asm("NOP");   I changed this to __delay_cycles(25);  Now I see the linker is started but then it appears to crash.

The console show this:

I also get a pop-up window that is from embed430.exe - Application Error

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc00000005).  Click OK to terminate the application"

I see multiple of these, not sure how many since I cancelled the build after a few.

How do I know if I exceeded the allowable size for the evaluation copy of CCS V5.2.  Further when and if I purchase the CCS license?

Hi,

I stripped out code to fit on development board.  CCS V5 starts the linker and then experiences application errors for obj files that do not exist in the project (lround.obj, fmal.obj, xltgamma.obj to name a few).  The log data is shown below.  I am very frustrated with the CCS, please provide insight as to what is going on:)

Thanks,

 Is project setup correct? In first post processor is different from the following.

 The project need to be imported and CCS on windows need that all files reside on same drive, I am not sure this has been corrected on latest version.

Ed Lombardo

I see multiple of these, not sure how many since I cancelled the build after a few.

How do I know if I exceeded the allowable size for the evaluation copy of CCS V5.2.  Further when and if I purchase the CCS license? 

 Hi Ed these error seems to be relative to missing files, wrong program setting or project made with old version and loaded instead of importing.

 If you are in the evaluation mode no limit exist and if code limited version code size error appear at link time, linker start only after compilation is succesful.

Hi Roberto,

The first post was from someone else, I am targeting msp430f5529 device.

I took the MSP-EXP430F5529 development board and added CC1100 sources.

The project is on the C drive where CCS resides.

Regards,

Ed

 Ok, sorry Ed, first two post are two year old, next time is better to open a new fresh post instead of reply on older.

 CC1100 code is for simpliciTI? Code alone compile ok or problem arises also from example?

Hi Roberto,

How do I know if project was made with old version?  I used the CCS copy command to import CC1100 sources.  I have evaluation copy of CCS 5.2, and I deleted many sources from original demo project in hopes that CC1100 will fit.  Do I need to worry about IAR sources copied to CCS?

Regards,

Ed

Error: Program "C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/bin/gmake" is not found in PATH

 Hi, Is gmake there?

I did not try CC1100 code alone.  I took CC1100 code and brought it to the development board example code.  I then fixed compile errors and now code compiles with no errors.  When linker starts I get errors that are impossible for me to figure out.

yes, gmake if present at the path specified.

 Hi Ed, I am experienced on GCC and IAR usage but I am at early stage too with CCS, I am using under Linux for Stellaris and new version require me a new license I cannot resolve for now. I used the windows version before this last one and I suggest you to post again this on Code composer studio forum to see if someone has more idea about.

 I suggest you start again in importing CC1100 code and try compilation of one example before to try combine codes. If code is simpliciTI this code is not so trivial and need a lot of attention in library setup and configuration files.

 Tomorrow I try solve the license question so I can try load the example, please post the link of original demo project.

 IAR is too much expensive to be considered on mid low budget, I use IAR on code limited version but CCS quadravox and rowley are the only affordable for large project.

MSP430F5529 experimental board software download.

I created a new project called hello_program, added one line of code to disable the WD.

The linker failed in similar way.  Something related to the library file "C:\ti\ccsv5\tools\compiler\msp430_4.1.0\lib\rts430x_lc_sd_eabi.lib"
