Hi,

I'm running the batch file pdkProjectCreate.bat to create the CCS project NIMU_emacExampleClient_EVMC6657C66BiosExampleProject. The invoke the project creation batch file as follows, and get the following messages:

Here are the details.

Windows 10 host

CCS Version: 11.0.0.00012

Processor SDK: processor_sdk_rtos_c667x_6_03_00_106

I installed CCS 11 and SDK to folder: I:\ti

I modified file I:\ti\pdk_c667x_2_0_16\packages\pdkProjectCreate.bat to set CCS install path as: set CCS_INSTALL_PATH=I:/ti/ccs1100/ccs

Prior to running pdkProjectCreate, I run the batchfile: pdksetupenv.bat which displays the following output:

Environment Configuration:
***************************************************
SDK_INSTALL_PATH : I:/ti
PDK_INSTALL_PATH : I:/ti/pdk_c667x_2_0_16/packages
GMAKE_INSTALL_PATH : I:/ti/xdctools_3_55_02_22_core

PDK_VERSION : 2_0_16
RULES_MAKE : I:/ti/pdk_c667x_2_0_16/packages/ti/build/Rules.make

Can anyone tell me what's causing this problem?

Thanks,

Jim

Instead of modifying the script file (.bat) , I would recommend you to install the CCS version 9.3.

The CCS version 9.3 is the compatible and tested version for the "Processor SDK 6.3"

I have created an "FAQ" exclusively for this. The steps given here are for C6657. These steps are similar for C6678 too.

Please visit and follow the steps given in the FAQ. https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1040872/faq-tms320c6657-how-to-generate-the-ccs-pdk-examples-for-c6657/3849031#3849031

Shankari,

Thanks for the reply. I solved the problem by adding a path to where the sdk is installed (i:\ti) in the CCS product discovery path via CCS menu: Preferences->Products. After restarting CCS, the SDK 6.3 components were discovered and installed. The pdkProjectCreate batch file then successfully created the CCS C6678 nimu project.

I understand that CCS9.3 is recommended for the SDK 6.3, but we have a project requirement to use CCS 10 or greater (hence I decided to use latest).

Hi James,

That's good news.

Glad to hear that the problem is resolved.

In future, while building the project in CCS 10.4, you may get the build error for "cerrno".

If you add the path of "C:\ti\ti-cgt-c6000_8.3.2\include\libcxx", that error will not appear...

Regards

Shankari
