MSP430F67791A: IAR v7.1 not working with TIDM-THDREADING Firmware

Part Number: MSP430F67791A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TIDM-THDREADING

Hi,

I am trying to use IAR IDE v7.1 (30 day free trial) to open the workspace file available in TIDM-THDREADING (http://www.ti.com/tool/TIDM-THDREADING) code, but the compiler shows some error messages saying that it was not possible to open all three project files available. I choose to convert the files but the compiler did nothing.

I have tried to find IAR IDE version 6.1 but I couldn't.

Is there a way to use GCC and CCS to compile this firmware and all math libraries ?

Reading some forum topics I could notice that downloading and using the previous version of IAR IDE would be faster than fixing the code to work with recent releases. Is there a way to download IAR IDE v6.10 with no code size limit in eval mode ?

Thank you in advance.

  • Hello,

    When importing older workspaces into IAR, it will typically ask if you want to convert them. I'm assuming that you selected "Yes" and after opening the workspaces, you tried to build the projects. Is this correct?

    Did you build the projects in the proper order? Try this, and if that doesn't work, please post screenshots of the compiler errors.

    Regards,

  •  Hi JAmes,
    The .eww file below is selected to open.
  • Hello,

    Unfortunately, your screenshots didn't post. After you click "Reply", click the "Insert Code, Attach Files and more..." at the lower right, and then in the next dashboard, click the Insert/Edit Media icon (shown below).

  • Please find the new screenshots in the same post James. Thank you !
  • Hello,

    Thanks for re-posting the screenshots! Much appreciated.

    This is very strange. I tried opening the workspace with IAR v7.10.5, got the "Would you like to convert it for use with this version?" messages, clicked "Yes", and then after a few seconds, the projects showed up in the workspace.

    Perhaps the path is too long. Could you try bringing up the "Source" folder to somewhere like C:\temp\Source and try it again?

  • Hi James,

    now the files are in the folder C:\THDTI and I can rebuild all the three group of codes, but not without warnings and errors.

    For the emeter_toolkit the following warnings are being showed.

    And for the emerter_app the errors below appear. Many .h files which are expected to be in the folder ...430\inc\clib   are in fact in   ...430\inc\dlib\c  folder.

  • Hello,

    I'm glad you were able to import your projects! Thanks for trying my recommendation.

    When I rebuild all three projects in IAR v7.10.5, I don't see any errors. I checked where 'inttypes.h' and found that it was located in C:\Program Files (x86)\IAR Systems\EW430 v7.10.5\430\inc\dlib\c folder. The messages in your Build log window seem to be looking at the \430\inc level, which should find this file no matter if it's in the dlib or clib folder. You may want to contact IAR about this error too.

    For the emeter-app-6779 project, did you change anything under Properties -> General Options -> Library Configuration -> Library? Mine is set to "Normal DLIB".

    Regards,

  • Hi James,
    I have changed the library config after some attempts using the default config but none of them worked. I will try once again with Normal DLIB.
    Thank you and best regards.
