Building DSPLINK example for OmapL137 using a makefile in CCS5

Hello;

I am trying to build a DSPLINK example project, I was able to build it using a make file out side CCS 5,

but how can I built it using that same make file in CCS 5,

I am trying to do this for easy debugging,

and is it possible to do that for both the arm and dsp

Note I was able to build both sides in windows and they both work perfectly.

Thank you in advance

Kassem,

Have you looked at this wiki for creating GCC based project in CCSv5 environment. This might give you an idea of how to convert your makefile based project in CCSv5 based environment.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/How_to_create_GCC_projects_in_CCSv5

However since you are building a DSPLINK project, it implies that you have a high level OS like linux running on the ARM so the run time debugging may not be that straight forward as you would be required to setup a gdb server so I am also providing you link to linux aware debug in CCSv5:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Debug_in_CCSv5.

The instruction to halt the DSP application to connect and debug the DSP side of the DSPLINK application also apply in your use case:

Good luck !!

Rahul
