Changing Sys/bios location in project

Mark Rush1

Hello,

 I am trying to come up to speed on Code Composer 5.2 by using the built in 'Sys/bios>MSP430 Examples>Task' project.

Everything builds and executes correctly, but in my project directory, CCS insists on creating a subdirectory called 'src' in which it places the sys/bios source code during the build.

I am wanting to change the name of that directory because I want to reserve a directory named 'src/ for my own use.

I cannot find where that directory name is defined in the project.  Can anyone help?

    Hi Mark,

    That folder is generated by BIOS. I will move this to the BIOS forum where the experts there can help you best.

    Thanks

    The 'src' directory gets created when BIOS.libType = BIOS.LibType_Custom;

    The 'src' directory name is hard-coded within the custom SYS/BIOS build flow mechanism.

    I suggest that you settle for a different directory name such as "mySrc" for your own use.

    Having said that, there is a back door way of moving the custom SYS/BIOS library build area somewhere else.

    By adding the following line to your .cfg file:

        BIOS.libDir = "./";

    the custom SYS/BIOS library build area will be moved into the project's 'configPkg' directory.

    Again, this is an undocumented and unsupported feature and may not work in the future.
