UPP Examples, Import Does Not Copy Source Files Fropm Examples into the Workspace

Mitch Nelson

The goal is to use a UPP example as a starting point to develop a new app.  The problem is thatt he source files are not copied when the project is imported into the workspace.  Instead they are referenced from their original location.

Steps to Recreate the Problem

  1. Project -> Import Legacy CCSv3.3 Project
  2. Select Search Directory :    C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\pspdrivers_01_30_01\packages\ti\pspiom\examples\evm6748
  3. Deselect all, Select uppSample.pjt, uppSampleEvmA.pjt, uppSampleEvmB.pjt
  4. Select "Copy projects into workspace"
  5. Next
  6. Code Generation Tools  7.2.0 (the default)
  7. DSP/BIOS tools  5.41.10.36 (the default)
  8. Do not selet common root

Result:   No source code files are copied into the work space.

The CCS shows source files, their properites show they reside in the original directory where PSP was installed. 

What is the work around for this?

    Mitch,

    I haven't seen this problem, but one easy workaround is to just find all of the sources you want using Windows Explorer, then drag and drop them directly into your project within Eclipse.  This will cause Eclipse to copy them to your project's directory and also add them into the project.

    Hi Mitch,

     

    When you import a Legacy CCSv3.3 project, the source files and the build files are visible in the project(C/C++ projects window). But, these files are nothing but linked files to the project(linked to source files of their original location). So, they are referenced from their original location. 

    If you need the source code files to be copied into the workspace, follow these steps:

    1. Select all the source and build files of the project. (For Ex: Refer the snapshot below)

    2. Right click and, Delete. A dialog box opens and continue selecting "yes". 

    3. Right click on the project(uppSampleEvmA) and select "Add Files to Project..."

    4. Select all the source and build files that were deleted earlier(Referring to snaphot above - uppSample_io.c, uppSample_main.c and uppSample.tcf). (Make sure you add all the files deleted earlier).

    Result: Source code files will be copied to your workspace.

     

    Thanks & regards,
