Compiler Errors in the ".asm" Files when using the "Hercules Safety Library" source folder

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN, TMS570LC4357

Hallo

i am trying to use the "Safety Library" source for the TMS570LC4357ZWT. So i did follow all the instructions from the HalCoGen example: "example_SafetyLib.c" to configure and run the self tests. But unfortunately i become always compiler errors in the *.asm files like :

[E0002] Illegal mnemonic specified sl_pmu_IAR.asm /TMS570_Self_Tests/source line 37 C/C++ Problem

[E0004] Expression must evaluate to an absolute constant sl_asm_api_KEIL.asm /TMS570_Self_Tests/source line 439 C/C++ Problem

such errors are coming from the assembler files supplied by "Hercules SafeTI Diagnostic Library". You can find these files in the source folder.

I am using Code Composer v6.2

Could some one help me in that issue?

thanks

If you are using CCSv6, you should not include the "Keil" or "IAR" versions of the .asm files. There are multiple versions of the .asm files as each company's assembler is different. If you imported the project into CCS, then the project should already be excluding those files.

thank you Bob,

i did exclude the IAR and the Keil files from my project and it works without any compiler errors.

But now i am trying to debug the application and got these errors:

CortexR5: File Loader: Memory write failed: Flash verification failed
CortexR5: GEL: File: D:\EBICAB600\TMS570_Self_Tests\Debug\TMS570_Self_Tests.out: Load failed.

can you tell me please what is wrong in this issue?

Thank you

That message means it could not program the flash properly. Not sure why.

On the TMS570LC4357 the ECC is always enabled. Did you select "Generate ECC " in the flash load options? Without proper ECC the verify after the load will fail.

Yes, thank you. that was the problem: i didn't select the "Generate ECC"
