MSP430-GCC-OPENSOURCE: Missing GCC files from the package

Part Number: MSP430-GCC-OPENSOURCE

Hi team,

 

A customer has pointed out an issue with our standalone GCC for Windows 7, 64 bit.

 

From here:

http://software-dl.ti.com/msp430/msp430_public_sw/mcu/msp430/MSPGCC/latest/index_FDS.html

 

They explain:

-------

It does not seem to include the necessary headers and linker files I need to compile with msp430-elf-gcc.

 

The user guide (SLAU646C) mentions an installer program, which does not seem to exist on the website, and mentions downloading the "MSP430 GCC Support Files package," which is also not available.

 

The user guide also mentions devices.csv, which is also not in the zip file.

 

Where can I download a working version of GCC?

-------

 

Thanks in advance for the help,

Billy

    Hi Billy,

    Has the customer downloaded the source files highlighted below? It should contain what they're looking for. I downloaded them and quickly found 'devices.csv' under "C:\Downloads\msp430-gcc-7.3.2.154-source-full.tar\msp430-gcc-7.3.2.154-source-full\gcc\gcc\testsuite\gcc.target\msp430".

    Regards,

    James

    Looking at the user's guide, I see the support files listed in Table 20 but not shown on the MSP430-GCC-OPENSOURCE software folder.

    I downloaded the standalone package but didn't find the support files under the "include" folder either.

    I'll check with our tools team.

    Regards,

    James

    Hi Billy,

    Thanks for your patience. I've talked to our tools team, and they prioritized releasing the compiler over the all-in-one installer and the header files, which they're working on now. These are expected to be released in a few weeks. With the holidays, it may be after the beginning of the year, but I've asked them to keep me posted. I'll let you know when they've been released.

    Regards,

    James

    Hi Billy,

    To just close the loop here, I'm happy to report that the header and support files are now available for the latest version. Thank you for your patience!

    Regards,

    James
