Debugging process

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

I am new to Hercules safety kit, so please help me to solve this problem.
I made a code using code composer studio for TMS570LS20126SZWT.
The debugging process goes well. But, when the program is loaded, error message pops out. It says "
Encountered a problem loading file: D:\My Workspace\Testing\Debug\Testing.out .Could not open file".
I am so confused because the first time i debugged my program, the loading process did not have any trouble.
But now, the program itself is compiled successfully but the loading process failed

How can I fix this problem ?

Hi,

Could you pls let us know the complete error message displayed on your console ?

There could be multiple reasons like your .out endiannes being different, ECC issues etc...

Also do you remember what you have changed in your code the last time you were able to load the code successfully ?

Hi,

I only changed the enabled driver in halcogen and added some codes. The last time I was able to load the code, it was only for a set of 3 seven segments. I added some codes for the other 2 sets of seven segments. So, it shouldn't have caused any problem.

The complete error message is

" Load program Error.

Encountered a problem loading file: D:\My Workspace\Testing\Debug\Testing.out .Could not open file"

This is the picture of the error message. Thank you.

I'm sure you might have already done this, but I'm just making sure, did you check if exists GIO.out in the location showed in the snapshot?

Was there any compilation errors earlier or you did a build clean ?

Yes I did, there wasn't such file named GIO.out in the location.

And no, there wasn't any compilation errors.

This is my main function just in case you need it

7673.sys_main.c

Since there is no such .out file then CCS complaining about it is obvious.

Can you try to build the project again ? If there are no errors then you should be getting a .out created by CCS.

If there is any error then you can look at the console and figure out what it is.

I build the project over and over again. There isn't any .out file created by CCS.

Could there be a reason why this happen? Probably in the project properties configuration

There are some error messages mentioned in the console, but it doesn't concern the code.

I believe you have changed something with Advanced compiler section under parser pre-processing options.

Do you have that to Parser preprocessing option set to default i.e. "automatic" ?

Yes, it is set to default. Should I change it to manual?
I don't think I've made any changes to advanced compiler section though.

No that's not required, but there is some additional options set which I can see from the console log.

Pls share your project so that I can have a quick look at it.

I hope this will help.

I did try this on my side and it did not show any compilation error.

There was a linker error for missing function in sciNotification() [This apparently seems to be missing in notification.c].

So it looks okay to me.

On attempting to recreating the problem, I went ahead and temporarily removed the following file

C:/ti/ccsv6/tools/compiler/ti-cgt-arm_5.2.2/bin/armcg.exe and I got the same error as yours.

Can you pls make sure you do have this file under the following hierarchy ?

I see you are using the same version of compiler from your log, so it should be the same path as I mentioned above.

No I don't have that file in the location. Where can I get that file? Do I need to reinstall ccs?

0 KARTHIKEYAN RAJAMANICKAM over 10 years ago in reply to Riko Nainggolan

TI__Genius 11645 points

No, you do not need to install the complete CCS again.

Pls go to
a. CCS Help
b. Navigate to the last line of that drop down - About Code COmposer studio
c. Which opens a new tab - Click on Installation details
d. Which will in turn open another new pop-up- Choose installed softwares tab
e. Then on click ARM compiler tools and then update if there are new versions available

Hopefully that gets you a fresh set of compiler version which should solve your problem.

I tried to update ARM compiler tools. But this is what I got

Oh nvm, armcg exists in the updated arm compiler tools and the building process of GIO.out runs successfully. Thank you for your assistance
