Problem with GRACE



HI!

After grace installation i can't start it properly.

I create project from Grace Getting started guide. After CCS wizard generete project .cfg file was without any interface.(look picture below)

How to solve this problem?

My OS Windows 7 interprise

 

Code Composer Studio Core Edition  Version: 4.2.1.00004 

Thank you!

 

  • Do you have a valid .cfg file showing in the source TAB?  One example for me is below.  I also notice that instead of "Properties" tab mine says Grace.

    Maybe try rebooting?  Of course I am running WinXP and  believe Grace had somep path issues (while building) with Windows 7

  • I have a similar problem.

    I did have the previous version: Grace Beta .. and I want this new version that supports F26xx devices.

    When I try to update grace it doesn't work.

    When I download grace from ti/grace and install, I still have no support to F26xx devices, what should I do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Flavio,

    i would recommend to download the latest Grace image (find it here http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/grace.html?DCMP=Grace&HQS=Other+EM+grace)  and do a clean installation.

    Since you have used Grace before (Beta Version(s)), you may have an older version of the Grace and XDCtools products still installed, specifically XDCtools 3.21.00.27-eng. To avoid the possibility of interactions with newer XDCtools, please uninstall 3.21.00.27-eng (and all other xdctools_xxx_eng versions) from your machine, using the uninstaller program located in the xdctools_3_21_00_27_eng directory (or simply by deleting the whole folder). You should also delete any older Grace installation (simply delete it's folder).

     

    Now, do a new installation with the Grace image you've downloaded.

    P.S. Your old Grace projects will no longer work and you will get an error message when you open them. To solve this:

    - open your projects .cfg-file and click on SOURCE tab

    - locate the entry CSL.configApiVersion (image shows and old project made with beta3)

    - verify it's value is set to "1.00.00" (the current version of Grace) --> if not, change it and you can re-use your project
