We are currently developing s/w for our TMS320C6701 DSP using CCS V3.3 and XDS510PP+ emulator on a PC running XP. We have purchased the XDS510USB emulator and have gotten it to work with our PC that is running XP. We had purchased the new CCS license a while ago and are now migrating. I had played with CCS V4 and had issues...not all of them were resolved. Same when I tried playing with CCS v5.1 back in January. I'm now back to the task and see that the latest release is V5.3. I'm wondering if migrating to V5.3 is my best approach. So far, with CCS V5.1, I have the following issues:
1. My code, in the mainline, has a call to cslCfgInit();. In TI ticket # 1-755281159, it was suggested that I include cfg.h. This file could not be found by the compiler and so the issue was never resolved.
2. I commented out the call to cslCfgInit(). Now I get compile errors with sin and tan functions. I don't call these functions. Probably part of some library. Not sure what to do about this issue.
3. I tried to setup the ccxml file to verify that CCS can comunicate with the emulator. An option appears for the XDS510USB emulator but the 6701 is not listed under supported devices. Not sure what to do about this issue.
These issues make me hesitate about migrating to CCS v5. Anybody have some opinions about how I should proceed? Should I stick with CCS V3.3 while using the old DSP and migrate to the new CCS when we start using newer DSPs? Any input would be appreciated. Thx, Bill.
