AM6411: SYSCONFIG, how to inregrate web version into CCS?

Oba

I am not sure what is meant by integrating in to CCS.  Can you elaborate?

Hi Paul,

I'm taking this over this question and let me clarify some details.
Our customer is working on WEB based SysConfig tool to generate IO pin configuration file (ti_pinmux_config.c) and they are trying to import this file to CCS and compile. But result looks imported ti_pinmux_congfig.c is not working and original pinmux_config file in CCS was used.
Can you walk us through how to port pinmux_cinfig.c file generated by WEB based SysConfig tool to CCS?

Thanks,       
Nakano

Thanks for the clarification. I will have someone from our software team help answer how to use  the generated .c file in code.

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for the procedure. The customer followed the steps but they got error message below.

After hitting yes for retry, then another error message showed up.

another error message came up and says; unknow property: $useCase.
Ifs there any file format difference btw WEB based Sysconfig and CCS?

Thanks,
Nakano

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your reply.

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your reply.

The above method is working for me.

Can you please share the untitled.syscfg file saved?

Tushar

Hi Tushar,

Here is their untitled.syscfg.

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for your best support. Now customer can use WEB sysconfig file on CCS sysconfig but, they see some compile errors below.

 DO you see the same error when you compile? 


Thanks,
Nakano

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your reply.

From the error logs it is seen that the symbol putchar_ is undefined. Please see the below image.

Can you please make sure, have you imported all the necessary libraries?

Regards,

Tushar

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for checking.  Can you please pin point what type of libraries other than SDK?

Thanks,
Nakano

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your response.

From the error logs it is seen that the putchar_ is not defined in your example.

Can you please check which file is calling putchar_ function and where it is defined? (i.e. in SDK or example)

Regards,

Tushar

Hi Tushar,

putchar_  function is call in C source code when CCS compiles ti_xxxxxx_xxxx.c,
This ti_xxxxxx_xxxx.c is probablyy generated by .sysconfig file imported from cloud based Sysconfig to CCS we just discussed above.
So, the customer thinks this is TI library issue (putchar_ is not defined in the TI .lib) and concerned about if there is compatibility issues btw tools also.
Can you please check?

Thanks,
Nakano 

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your reply.

Can you please try building the example once after re-building the libraries?

To rebuild the libraries run the below commands from MCU+SDK root directory.

gmake -s libs PROFILE=debug clean
gmake -s libs PROFILE=release clean

gmake -s libs PROFILE=debug 
gmake -s libs PROFILE=release

Regards,

Tushar

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for your reply.
Can you actually rebuild the libraries and share with us? We think it's easy for us to check compatibility btw you and customer.

Thanks,
Nakano  

Hello Nakano,

Thanks for your response.

I have checked the above error again. It seems that the customer is using SDK v09.00.00.31. There are build failures associated with the SDK v09.00.00.31.

Can you please use the SDK v09.00.00.35 and let us know are you still facing the issue?

Please find MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM64X_09.00.00.35.

Regards,

Tushar

Hi Tushar.

Thanks for your suggestion. I actually noticed it looks like WEB based Sysconfig only supports 09.01.00 and the customer is using .sysconfig
file from this version. This might cause the issue?  We should ask customer to try 09.01.00 later version? or 09.00..00.35 is better?

Thanks,
Nakano

Yes, the web version of the Sysconfig tool always use the latest version of SDK. Is there a specific requirement to use the web version of Sysconfig tool?

Customer can also use the desktop(offline) version of tool for development. Please refer Setup_SDK_and_Tools to find the tools required for development.

It is always recommended to use the latest version of SDK(currently SDK v09.02), as the newer version comes with bug fixes and optimizations compared to older versions.

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for your comments. You mentioned;

"I have checked the above error again. It seems that the customer is using SDK v09.00.00.31. There are build failures associated with the SDK v09.00.00.31.

Can you please use the SDK v09.00.00.35 and let us know are you still facing the issue?"

Do we know SDK v09.00.00.35 or later version implemented bug fixed of putchar_ function call issue?

The customer is king of refusing to try newer version if the bug fix is not sure because setting up new SDK and environment take time and resources.

Thanks,
Nakano 

Hello Nakano,

I am using SDK v09.00.00.35 at my end and it is working fine for me. I am unable to see the build issue in SDK v09.00.00.35.

Keisuke Nakano said:

Yes, it's correct but this is only one time effort at customer's end.

Regards,

Tushar

Hi Tushar,

They still see the same issue with SDK v09.00.00.35. Please see below log.


Can you try their sysconfig on your side?

Thanks,
Nakano

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for advise. I'm not sure if this is actually related to putchar_ issue?

Thanks,
Nakano

Hi Tushar,

Thanks for your reply.  The customer simply need to select "Debug Log" for putchar_ difined, correct?

Thanks,
Nakano
