I2C read using CSL

Hi,I'm using C6472, CCS3.3, and I would like to write a simple I2C read routine.

I tried the example code that came with the CSL library and it worked fine (write and read back in loopback mode).

I need a simple read. I tried to modify the example code with no success. I tried other examples from the web with no success either.

Here is partial code. I removed many of the status return checks to simplify the reading.

My problem is that the read register (RRDY bit) is never ready! Do I have to start by  transmitting the slave address, or its is sent automatically? Please help.

void I2C_init(void) {

    CSL_Status         status;
    CSL_I2cObj      i2cObj;
    CSL_I2cHwSetup  hwSetup;

    hwSetup.mode           = CSL_I2C_MODE_MASTER;
    hwSetup.dir            = CSL_I2C_DIR_TRANSMIT;
    hwSetup.addrMode       = CSL_I2C_ADDRSZ_SEVEN;        //7bits addressing mode
    hwSetup.sttbyteen      = CSL_I2C_STB_DISABLE;        //DISABLE == disable start byte (Normal mode)
    hwSetup.ownaddr        = CSL_I2C_SLAVE_ADDR;        //address used to talk to this DSP chip
    hwSetup.ackMode        = CSL_I2C_ACK_ENABLE;
    hwSetup.runMode        = CSL_I2C_FREE_MODE_DISABLE;    //DISABLE == stop at breakpoint
    hwSetup.repeatMode     = CSL_I2C_REPEAT_MODE_DISABLE;//DISABLE == no repeat mode
    hwSetup.loopBackMode   = CSL_I2C_DLB_DISABLE;        //DISABLE == digital loopback mode is disabled
    hwSetup.freeDataFormat = CSL_I2C_FDF_DISABLE;        //DISABLE == use 7/10bits addressing mode
    hwSetup.resetMode      = CSL_I2C_IRS_ENABLE;         //ENABLE  == put in reset
    hwSetup.bcm            = CSL_I2C_BCM_DISABLE;        //DISABLE == disable back compatibility
    hwSetup.inten          = 0x00;                       //interrupt enable mask
    hwSetup.clksetup       = &clksetup;                    //prescaler and clock setup

    CSL_i2cInit(NULL);
    sI2C_Handle = CSL_i2cOpen(&i2cObj, CSL_I2C, NULL, &status);
    CSL_i2cHwSetup(sI2C_Handle, &hwSetup);
