Project library building and eclipse errors

David,

I think your SYS/BIOS project's config file has this line in it:

    BIOS.libType = BIOS.LibType_Custom;

This setting causes application specific SYS/BIOS and IPC libraries to be generated in the 'src' directory.

I'm not sure I understand the error messages you're getting.

They seem like linker errors but you say they "appear when the file is opened". Can you clarify what you mean?

Have you performed a 'clean' of the project?

You might also try manually deleting the 'src' directory after a 'clean' before rebuilding.

Yes, that is the difference in building the library.

I added the line above to the "good" project and now it builds a library like the other one.

I did not change the actual problem.

The "errors" I'm speaking of appear in the CCS "Problems" window (not the "console" compiler output).  I can disable the errors by selecting "configure contents" in the drop down box and then unchecking  "semantic error".

Although they sound like linker errors, they are not from the real compiler.  They are from an eclipse tool.

If I have all editor windows closed, there are no errors.  As I open a file, eclipse then looks at it and fills the "problem" box with errors.

Some examples are below.

Description Resource Path Location Type
Symbol 'BIOS_WAIT_FOREVER' could not be resolved MessageQApp.c /sysBiosDemoPrj line 194 Semantic Error
Symbol 'Cache_Type_ALL' could not be resolved MessageQApp.c /sysBiosDemoPrj line 382 Semantic Error
Symbol 'Cache_Type_ALL' could not be resolved MessageQApp.c /sysBiosDemoPrj line 413 Semantic Error

It's not just the error messages that are a problem, the debugger also can't find these symbols.

Thanks,

David

I understand now.

It seems that the include file search path doesn't have an entry for the SYS/BIOS installation.

Have a look at the following forum post and see if the suggestion resolves your issue:

Alan,

That post seems to describe a very similar issue (on the ARM compiler).

I've tried add every path I can think of but to no avail.

The "good" project does not have any entries other than the tool chain.

Some of what I added

"${CG_TOOL_ROOT}/include"
"${workspace_loc:/${ProjName}/SourceLinks}"
"C:\ti2\bios_6_33_04_39\packages"
"C:\ti2\ipc_1_24_03_32\packages"
"C:\ti2\syslink_2_10_05_26\packages"
"${workspace_loc:/${ProjName}/src}"

Thanks,

David

I'm glad you figured that out.

I don't think I would have ever suggested deleting the .metadata folder.
