Building MSP430Ware example projects for different devices

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5438, MSP430F5438A, MSP430BT5190, MSP430WARE

I have an MSP430F5438 (not Rev. A), and I am trying to compile the UCS_DCO_12MHz code example for it, but it seems this example was designed for the MSP430F5438A which apparently has different register locations. I am not sure how to get this to work, and I am not sure how to Google around for an answer. I have tried the following steps to no avail:

- Editing project properties to change the device

- Removing the "MSP430F5438A.ccxml" and the "lnk_msp430f5438A.cmd" config files and replacing them with the 5438 variants

- Changing the compiler to V4.0 (compiler complains that I need to use V3.3.1)

But when I build the project, I get this (very non-conclusive) error: "Description Resource Path Location Type C:\\Users\\Reece\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\067683 object Smart Cane Sensors line 29 C/C++ Problem"

Excuse my lack of CCS knowledge; this is one of my first projects using CCS!

All I want to achieve here is to be able to adapt any of the MSP430Ware/Peripheral Driver Library examples to the device variants I have access to (MSP4305438 and MSP430BT5190). Is there a surefire way to do this? I am using the newest CCS version. Thanks!!
