Problem renaming Projects in CCS Version: 5.4.0.00091

Hi,

 

I am using the TIVA C Launchpad. I can successfully compile build load etc with the example projects. What I'm finding is however , if I rename a project, delete the existing .bin from the Debug folder, a new binary is not being made. This is by right clicking on the project and using Rename (F2). If I go to Refactor the only option available is Upgrade Compiler Version.

 

Any thoughts on what may be my problem? Is anyone else able to replicate the problem? Does anyone else have a Refactor/Rename menu item???

    Hi Lee,

    After you rename the project you need to select "Build All" from the project menu.  The console will output a confirmation when the build is finished, then your new binary should be visible in the project explorer file tree.  Are you getting any errors when trying to build?

    Hi Joel,

     

    There are no errors when I build with the hammer  or select build all. I changed the name of the hello project to hello world. It produced an hello world.out file but no hello world .bin. if I change the name back to hello the hello.bin is produced. The console output at the end of building is listed below.

    <Linking>

    'Finished building target: hello world.out'

    "C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/tiobj2bin/tiobj2bin" "hello world.out" "hello world.bin" "C:/ti/ccsv5/tools/compiler/arm_5.0.6/bin/armofd" "C:/ti/ccsv5/tools/compiler/arm_5.0.6/bin/armhex" "C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/tiobj2bin/mkhex4bin"

    **** Build Finished ***

     

    I thought the refactor menu item should have a submenu rename item??

     

    After clicking ok in the rename resource window the is a brief message :performing actions" or something like that, it flashes up very fast,, still the .bin file is not produced.

    When I tried this I actually got an error running CCS on Linux.  When I renamed 'hello' to 'hello world' the tiobj2bin script failed as a result of the space in the project name.  tiobj2bin is actually a shell script  (On a side-note tiobj2bin failed altogether on Ubuntu since /bin/sh points to /bin/dash not /bin/bash) but a quick glance through the script would suggest that it should handle the space properly, provided that parameters are passed in quoted -- which they are.  I'd suggest simply using 'hello_world' instead of 'hello world' and you may have better results.

    Refactoring is for renaming symbol names (global variables, function names, etc) across a whole project.  Using 'refactor' to rename a file doesn't have meaning in 'C' since neither file name nor project name imply anything about a name space.
