CCS/LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1: what is the relationship / difference between .xscfg files and .cfg files

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Dear,

I understand .cfg files are kernel configuration files.

However, I do not understand the relationship they have with .xscfg files.

First I guessed my .cfg file would become the same as the selected build configuration (.xscfg) file every time I build but it does not seem to be the case.

Please, let me know.

    Hi,

    If you are using CCS, then the .xscfg files are not used (the compilation will occur even if you delete those files). It seems to be different for IAR where by default one or the other is used (please see this thread for details).

    With that said, one .xscfg file can be used in replacement of the .cfg file (as you will see there is practically no differences between the content of these two files). The .xscfg files are provided to help the customers to modify the .cfg file when needed (that is why those files are stored in the Tools folder). If you need to modify your .cfg file, I would advice to copy-paste manually the content of the .xscfg in your .cfg file.

    I hope this will help,

    Regards,
