XDC Tool Invocation with Eclipse and CCS4

I have a project that has been migrated from CCS3 to CCS4 under eclipse.  Both a .cfg file and xdcpaths.dat file were migrated with the project.  When the build is run, the xdctools applications are not invoked and the result is undefined externals on the link step.  I am trying to build with the jpeg encoder.

What needs to be configured to have this step nvoked.

 

  • I am not sure what's the "right" way to do it, but this is what usually works for me in such a case.

    1. outside of CCS, copy your cfg file to C:/temp, for example.
    2. in CCS, right click on your cfg file and delete it.
    3. in CCS, click on the menu item Project, while the project you are trying to fix is active. Then click on Add Files to Active Project, and find your cfg file in C:/temp, and add it to the project. When you do that, CCS should ask you if you want to enable RTSC support for your project. Click yes, and you should have a RTSC project now. You'll have to pick a platform and a target for all this to work.
    4. You can remove your cfg file from C:/temp because CCS will make a copy of it in your project workspace.

    I am using CCS 4.2.3. I don't know if earlier versions have the same options as 4.2.3.
