TM4C1294NCPDT: TM4C1294NCPDT CCS project utils folder is empty

Part Number: TM4C1294NCPDT

I am trying build an application based on enet_io example. In this we also need to have field update for this project. So I tried to copy the code from boot_demo _emac_flash. In this process I noticed that utils fplder in the project has a file swupdate.c. However I could not copy the same to enet_io example. Then I noticed that the same folder is empty while accessing through window file explorer but displayed in CCS. So I included #include "utils/swupdate.h" in enet_io.c code.

When I try to compile enet_io project I get this error

undefined          first referenced
symbol                in file
---------          ----------------
SoftwareUpdateInit ./enet_io.obj

How to solve this?

Regards,

Ramesh

Hi,

If you right click on the swupdate.c file in your boot_demo_emac_flash CCS project and then select the Property you should see the below window popped up. As you can see the swupdate.c is soft-link file to C:\ti\TivaWare_C-2.1.4.178\utils\swupdate.c. In your enet_io example, you can either directly copy from C:\ti\TivaWare_C-2.1.4.178\utils\swupdate.c. to your local workspace or you can link the file just like what is done in boot_demo_emac_flash.

Hi Charles,

Thanks for the clarification. How do I link the file?

I tried to do it by right clicking the project and selected Resource--> linked resources. But I don't get any option to add an iterm.

Regards,

Ramesh

Hi,

Right click on the directory where you want to link the file and Select New->File and you should see the below window popped up. Click on the Advanced and then check the link to file box and provide the file path.
