Hi TI,

I tried to create a new project in the Design Center and then import into CCS and build. However, I got the error like this:

What I did was just follow the LAB#1 in Workshop Getting Started, save a new project in Design Center and build Lab#1 Starter Project Code in CCS. Do you know what is wrong in my project? Thanks.

Thank you. I see a lot of symbol redefinition linker errors. It looks like you have the duplicate source files in your project. You have a "./src/captivate_config" folder in your project and also a "./captivate_config" folder. It looks like those folders have the same files in it and is causing the conflict. Please double-check your project and see which one is the correct one.

Thanks

Hi Ki,

Yes, I can found the duplicate files in a project. But I am confused that which one should be kept.

At the beginning, when I create the project in the Design Center. A set of files is generated when I press "Generate Source Code" ,located in ..\TI_demo01\src.

However, after import this project into CCS, one more set of files is created automatically in the location ..\TI_demo01.

Which one I should use? What is their relation?

Is it just simply delete one of that? But I find some folders e.g. CCS, IAR...etc is in the ..\TI_demo01\src folder but not in ..\TI_demo01. Will it cause other problem if I just simply delete whole src folder?

Thanks,

Christy

This part I am unsure. I will move this thread to the MSP forum. The experts there can help you best.

Thanks

Make sure you just select one of them when you import the project

Hi Gary,

I am not sure that how to choose these two option properly.

For example, my project "NewProject01" is created and under the folder C:\Users\RD-TEST\TI_Project. Now, I launch CCS, and changed the workspace using "File\Switch Workspace" to C:\Users\RD-TEST\TI_Project. Then, I select "Project\Import CCS projects", "Select search-directory : C:\Users\RD-TEST\TI_Project". So now, should I select "Copy projects into workspace" or not?

And when I should use "Automatically improt referenced projects...."

Thanks,

Christy

Have you try just select one of them? Does the error disappears?

Hi Gary,

I found that when I import the new project (my project name is : MSP430FR2673_button_Test01), if the "Copy projects into workspace" is ticked, my project cannot be chosen. The project name (the second one in the list) is in grey.
