Hello sir,

  • Hi,

    I think you did not followed all required steps to built your project. Just review the documentation or look at this thread:

  • It means you are missing the file C:/ti/ccsv5/eclipse/TIVAWARE_INSTALL/driverlib/ccs/Debug/driverlib.lib

    Since gmake cannot fing the file it looks for a rule to make the file.  When it cannot find a rule to make the file it gives up and gives the error message you see.

     

    Your installation is probably incomplete.

  • Hello ram siva,

    It looks like the project is looking for the TivaWare DriverLib library and not finding in the path set for the project. I would suspect the "TIVAWARE_INSTALL" is an environment variable for the project that is not set.

    You can review the settings for the project by opening the project properties (right-click on the Project Explorer folder for the project you are trying to build) and opening the "C/C++ Build"->"Environment" window. You should also look at the "C/C++ Build"->"Build Variables" and "CCS Build"->"ARM Linker"->"File Search Path" settings.

    The "File Search Path" settings will include a entry for the driverlib.lib library and you can modify it if necessary after finding the driverlib.lib file in your installation. 

    If you are using the "Getting Started with the Tiva C Series" workshop, then you might also want to review the software requirements and make certain you have everything installed. That list can be found here.
