Part Number: TMS570LC4357

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi,

I am using TMS570LC4357 and i am using CCS version 8.2.0.

Right now, i am using the TI ARM compiler suite version 18.1.1 for compiling and linking the software.

I am loading the build image(.out) to the hardware using XDS debugger.

I have one query in using different compiler suite and loading the image into hardware(TMS570LC4357).

Is it possible to use GNU compiler for building the image and then, use the XDS debugger to load the image into Target hardware(TMS570LC4357)?

Will the GNU compiler's build image compatible to work in the Target hardware(TMS570LC4357)?

Basically, i am trying to use GNU compiler for one more software component and it is legacy software.

Please share your input.

Thanks and Regards,

N. Patchaiappan

Hello,

In CCS project property, you can select GNU (Linaro) to compile the project. I remember the GNU compiler supports little endian device only, and you need to find a patch for compiling the big endian device.

TMS570LC4357 is a big endian device.

Only TI compiler is present. Not able to find GNU compiler option.

Now, i have TWO query:

1) How to select and set the GNU compiler suite

2) Source code built by GNU compiler suite will work in TMS570LC4357?

Please provide solution on the above queries.

Thanks and Regards,

The compilers are installed when you install the CCS. You an download and install the compiler from cs->help->install code generation compiler tool, or install GCC ARM compiler tools.
