TMS320F28386S: Build configurations

Part Number: TMS320F28386S

Curious. When I import a project the build config choices are flash and ram. When I create a blank project the choices are debug and release.

Why is this please?

John

  • John,

    Usually, debug build has optimization OFF and debug-symbols included. In Release mode, optimization mode -O2, and debug symbols not included, so the size of out file is smaller.

    Our example is for getting started with C2000 devices and IPs, and it is not meant for production final project, so it is always debug build - means it has optimization OFF and debug symbols included. We do that for RAM and Flash both configuration

  • Thanks.

    So if I create a new project and want it to be flash based where is my choice?

  • John,

    My recommendation will be import empty project from and then create two configuration from flash:

    Right-Click on Project, Manage

    Flash-debug : optimization OFF, debug symbols added 

    flash-release : add -O2, and remove the debug symbol

    Regards,
