CCS/MSP432P401R: RTOS analyzer does not work after launching another debug session.

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello everybody,

I am using the RTOS Analyzer in order to show the execution graph and load analysis for a code. After I launched and initialized it for the first time, all the logs and graphs are shown correctly. However, when I close the debug session and make some changes in the code and run it (now with the RTOS Analyzer initialized), the graphs and load analysis are empty. I have to restart CCS and initialize the RTOS analyzier in order to make them show correctly. Is there a way to shown the graph correctly without restarting CCS?

I am using  Version: 7.1.0.00016 .

Thanks,

Carmen

  • Carmen,

    Do the views actually contain the raw data and it is just not displaying on the graph or is there no data at all?

    I will see if I can reproduce this and get back to you. 

  • Carmen,

    I can reproduce the issue with CCS 7.1. If the debug session is terminated, then after reload the load analysis graphs and data are empty. I will try this out with CCS 7.2 next and let you know if the issue is addressed in that version.

    In the meantime, could you try the following workaround: Do not terminate the debug session, but instead just switch to the CCS Edit perspective when you need to make changes to the code. Then build the project with the changes, and select Yes when it prompts you to reload the program. With this procedure the RTOS Analyzer views continue to display correctly for me.

  • Hello AartiG,

    Thanks for the reply!

    The workaround works, I'll do that in the meanwhile then.

    Carmen.
  • Carmen,

    I just tried this with CCS 7.2 and actually there is another bug introduced in 7.2 where the graphs are always empty (the data is there but the graph is not populated). And the issue with the data becoming empty after terminating and restarting a debug session is still there in 7.2.

    As a result, I would advise you to stay with CCS 7.1 and use the above workaround until these issues are fixed in a future release.
