Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hey everyone, i'm trying to recreate a IoT project i found on here https://www.hackster.io/rachachachara/iot-lights-project-llumin-de8722

My problem is that i can't really get the code found here to compile. The errors start with
#1965 cannot open source file "SPI.h"

From what i can read it was originally created in Energia, the code. I'm trying to recreate this project using Code Composer Studio as instructed by my teacher in my engineering class. It doesn't seem to compile well or at all in CCS. I would like some help ie libraries i need installed etc.

I have tried downloading some RTOS packages and tried using some examples like hello.c to form a new foundation for the code, but that didn't seem to work either.

Thanks in advance everyone for the help.

You will need to rip out all the Energia code and replace it with equivalents from TI. Look at all the examples for the various functionalities, like SPI for example.

Thanks Keith for your help. Where would i find these examples or begin to find other functionalities for the different modules?

In Ti Resource explorer in the examples in Simplelink.

Hey! Sorry to bug again. I've found other drivers for the SPI.h header. But i can't seem to find ones for "Wifi.h "and "PubSubClient.h". Are they already included in the software or do i have to find them as well. Definitely learning here as well. Thanks again for all the help.

You might have to write them yourself.

Ok! Sounds intense haha. Thanks for your help again. I'll keep looking around and if not i'll get some help from someone writing the code to access the modules that i need don the msp432 and the wifi board

Hello Greg,

If you want to upgrade to the CC3120 then the SimpleLink SDK Wi-Fi Plugin + SimpleLink MSP432P4 SDK together should get you all the necessary software required to use the CC3120 when connected to MSP432P4 MCU.

A better approach is to understand the application (from the link you provided) and adapt that to the Plugin + SDK environment. You will find a lot of examples in the Plugin and SDK that you can use as starting points and integrate them to create the application.

Please refer to the SimpleLink Academy for helpful labs.

We also have Cloud connection Plugins that might be useful. I would also encourage you to check out the IoT Cloud Partners Support page.

Hope this helps!

Regards.

Sai
