LAUNCHXL-F280049C: Can't import Launchxl demo project in CCS

Hi,

Have you downloaded and installed C2000Ware SDK and installed?  https://www.ti.com/tool/C2000WARE 

If you have installed then try to run some example from SDK. Try Blink_LED example, it is located at:

C:/ti/c2000/C2000Ware_4_01_00_00/driverlib/f28004x/examples/led

Please make sure you pick up LAUNCHXK_CPU1_RAM build configuration.

Also, you can take a look at C2000 Academy. It has instruction how to get started.

Yes C2000Ware is installed. And all the examples I tried to import worked fine, except for launchxl from [..]\c2000\C2000Ware_4_01_00_00\device_support\f28004x\examples\launchxl

I need that since I want to do something similar and it would be very handy to start from it.

Thanks for the link to C2000 Academy.

You should be able to import the project, then go right click the project, go to 'Build Configuration', Set Active and then select LAUNCHXL_CPU1_RAM build configuration.

In the Project Explorer Window, expand targetConfiguration and make sure Launchpad .ccxml fiile is active.

launchxl project can't be imported in CCS. That's a pity, especially when you want to show some beginners how to start with Launchpad...

Anyway it does not matter anymore for me, I managed to create another project from zero and use the code from launchxl.

Liviu,

What is the CCS version and which platform? I am able to import C2000Ware example projects without any issue. I have CCS 11.1 installed.

We have created C2000 online training. Please take a look at this link. In this section it walks through step-by-step instruction how to get started with C2000.

Please take a look and let us know if it is useful for you or you have any other feedback.

Thanks & Regards,

I just saw, you are using CCS 11.2. I have not tested on CCS 11.2. I will test it today and get back to you. Meanwhile, can you try the example at:

C:/ti/c2000/C2000Ware_4_01_00_00/driverlib/f28004x/examples/led

There are 2 project in the path mentioned by you. Both of them can be imported fine.

Actually all projects I tried can be imported, except launchxl.

Liviu,

Are you using CCS version 11.2? This CCS version (11.2.x) is not release yet. Are you sure you are using CCS 11.2.x CCS?

I just tried on CCS 11.1, 0 and it is importing and building without any issue.

Can you check again your CCS version and also C2000 compiler version?

The project is looking for cgtVersion="21.6.0.LTS". 

Thanks & Regards,

Santosh

Liviu,

I just noticed CCS 11.2.0.00007 was release in April 22. I am downloading and installing right now. I will try this project. Meanwhile, please let me know your compiler version.

Thanks & Regards,

Santosh

I would assume compiler version is 21.6.0, see the console output. I don't know how else to find the compiler version.

Yes, CCS version is 11.2.0.00007.

Liviu,

I just installed CCS 11.2.0 version and I am able to import and build it without any issue.

Thanks & Regards,

Here is an archive containing the launchxl folder. I don't really know which is the projectspec file.launchxl.zip

Hi,

Just deleting the files you mentioned did not changed anything, the same error.

BUT with the folder you gave me, it worked! Then I compared the content between your folder and the one from my installation and the only difference was the presence of *.DS_Store files in your folder. With those files everything is fine, without them I get the error. It's interesting that other examples also don't contain *.DS_Store file, but I can import.

Anyway, thank you for your help!
