It can't find the file 'platform.h', you need to make sure the path/directory containing the header file is in your 'include' directories. The file itself should be in your PDK under \packages\ti\platform directory.

Best Regards,

Hi sir

Thank you for replying the patch given for the demo version by ADVANTECH 8681e is PDK c6678_1_0_0_21 but the PDK downloaded from TI is pdk_1_1_2_5. So is the problem? if so how can i rectify it.

regards

That is most likely the case, as the platform file is meant to be a thin layer sitting on top of the CSL to support the platforms/boards.

Go ahead an install the other PDK that came with the board and use that platform.h file within (I'd still use the most recent PDK for everything else.)

Best Regards,

Chad
