MSPM0G3507: Cant clone project

Chris HOOGENBOOM
Intellectual 261 points
Part Number: MSPM0G3507

Tool/software:

I need to start new project B that is seeded with code from existing project A.  The user manual states it can be done with simple copy/paste but does not work for me.  I copy and paste, there is no error message, and no new copy of project A.  

Manual also states that projects can be renamed by right clicking.  I tried manually copying folder using windows and adding folder to workspace.  That works but of course from CCS perspective project name is a duplicate so it is not treated as a project.  I had thought that "rename" would solve that but right click on folder and there is no "rename" option.

no rename option here.

Can you either correct the CCS code or the documentation so they track?  And how do I clone project A as starting code for new project B?  Without manually copying and pasting the folder and then bulk editing the mystery config files using the dangerous

"sed -i s/project_A/project_B/g *.*"

and crossing fingers?

    So I have now been at this for a good hour+ and nothing I do makes a "added folder" become a "project".  Edited every file using grep and sed to change S100 to S200, added a s200 section to omnisense.theia-workspace, baically every pace I could think of I cloned or added.  Please tell me you are not using the windows registry to add projects?!!

    Hi Chris,

    Please see my default project files architecture below. And a copy and paste based on the project under "Folder: xxx" workspace is normal. And it also works if we rename the paste project name.

    Best Regards,

    Are we using different tools?  You seem to have 9 projects inside "Folder".  I do not see how to do that.  For me a "Folder" === "Project".  I have multiple folders/projects under one workspace.  If you right click on your "project" do you get build configurations menu item?  I don't think so?  How do you create a new project with multiple build configurations inside a "folder"?

    This is tool I am using.  What are you using?

    There is _no_ documentation support here for what you have shown in your picture.

    https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide/ccs_project-management.html#workspaces

    " a workspace is a parent folder of a project (or projects) that has additional Code Composer Studio configuration and settings information"

    Your picture has a "Workspace" then a "Folder" under the workspace and then "Projects" under the folder?  Thats impossible according to your own documentation and my picture.  How are you doing that?
