    Overall allocation of memory, including static variables and the stack region, can usually if not always be determined from the .map file produced as part of a project build.

    For run-time stack space usage, you can usually just write a C function or even a C++ library to look for stack-region RAM that has been changed from zero (assuming it was all zeroed at power-up) and/or monitor the stack pointer.

    Hi Joe,

    The ROV tool can also be used to see stack usage for both for the system stack and task stacks. It can be used to see heap usage also. Here's a video/ppt that covers some of these items: training.ti.com/debugging-common-application-issues-ti-rtos

    Note starting with CCS 7.1, there is a new ROV called Runtime Object View. It has the same capabilities + some new features (e.g. graphs, multiple views at once, saving data to a file, etc.).
