CCS/MSPDRIVERLIB: CCS7.2 driverlib -- where do I put it?

Part Number: MSPDRIVERLIB

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I had to use the offline installer to get the ccs onto this computer.  And nothing shows up under Resource Explorer.  

I have manually downloaded the DriverLIB for the MSP432.  But I don't know where to put it.  Considering everyone else is havnig no difficulties in using it, I suspect there's something basic that I'm not seeing.  The code horks at the #include <ti/devices/msp432p4xx/driverlib/driverlib.h> line.  

This is getting very frustrating.  It used to be that you'd just install CCS and tada, you can start working.  Now there's a cloud and MSPWare (which I also don't seem to be able to get working) and such.  All I want is to be able to code for the MSP432 like I do the MSP430.  I clicked the boxes for the MSP432 -- why are none of the tools I need for that present?

    Hello,

    Could you please post a snapshot of your CCS when launching Resource explorer?? Is there any error/message displayed??

    In the meantime please download and install the latest MSP432 sdk from here: www.ti.com/.../simplelink-msp432-sdk (it includes driverlib for MSP432)

    After that, you will be able to find all the driverlib examples in C:\ti\simplelink_msp432_sdk_1_40_01_00\examples\nortos\MSP_EXP432P401R.

    Please let us know if run into any more issues.

    Best regards,

    David

    Well, I've managed to get some progress. I"ve been manually setting paths in Eclipse so that the <driverlib.h> is finally visible. But now all the routines which MAP_ dereference to elsewhere are showing up as being "error #10234-D: unresolved symbols remain" by the linker. So I seem to be missing something in a path for the linker.

    Well how interesting. Seems all the Unresolved go away if you #include <rom.h> AND before that, #define TARGET_IS_MSP432P4XX

    Not sure why this detail is necessary. It's never shown on any examples that I've seen.

    Because it is automagically done by the project.

    Hello,

    Please try importing one of the examples that I referenced in my previous post, that should give you all the correct paths and the pre-defined symbols that you will need to include in your project.

    Best regards,

    Launching Resource Explorer does nothing. Nothing at all. It doesn't see a cloud and it doesn't show anything about anything installed on the computer either.

    I imported spi_3wire_incrementing_data_master several times and several different ways. None of them brought it into my workspace as a project I could compile. It appears there is no sort of setting on the project at all -- the 432builders lists I see in my MSP432TEST project are not anyplace.
