TMS320F280041: How do I configure the external MCU clock PLL parameters from within SysConfig?

Part Number: TMS320F280041
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG, C2000WARE

I am programming the initial framework for a new 28004x bare metal custom PCB that I designed.  I am using the CCS 12.1 SysConfig utility along with C2000Ware 4.02.00.00 driverlib support capability for the first time. Incidentally, I am very impressed with SysConfig! 

Although I have extensive experience with the 28x family using much older revision tools used prior to SysConfig, I am trying to use C2000Ware for this new project with more of a "best practices" approach rather than just copy and paste from various example files.

I have not yet found a way to program the external clock oscillator control register settings from within SysConfig.  Have I overlooked an area or is it not supported?

If not yet supported in SysConfig, then what is the proper way to configure the clock using other capabilities of C2000Ware driverlib support?

I am aware that the PLL can be set up manually in f28x004_sysctrl.c from the C2000Ware library, but this means that I am customizing code from C2000Ware and then have to be responsible for merges to our repository every time that TI releases a newer version (I have already been bit by this in the updates from the very first C2000Ware release when the f280049C was just released to one of 2.x releases a few years later). 

If modifying this file and then incorporating the modified file into our code repository is the only method available then I can do that and already know how, but I am really looking for a SysConfig capability on this.  It seems like this would have been extremely easy to incorporate.  Perhaps it has just been overlooked?

If this is some other method that is considered a software "best practice", please let me know.

Thanks,

Don Lucas
