TI-RTOS - Unified Instrumentation Architecture (UIA)

Anders Akre

Hi,

I am currently looking into the UIA. On this page http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php?title=Category:UIA there appears to be many interestings "links", where no one is clickable. Could you please fix the links or redirect me to a resource where I could learn more about the details of UIA? The TI-RTOS or System-analyzer user guides does not provide implementation details about how to use the API.

I am particularly interested in the following statement (from the link provided above):

  • an _extensible_ set of commands and messages that can be sent over the messaging infrastructure

Does that mean users can specify custom messages which can be passed to the host? Eventually, will those messages appear in the system analyzer plugin provided with CCS?

I got so many questions about UIA, the resources listed on the page provided would help out a lot.

Thank you, greetings

Anders

    Hi Anders,

    The UIA product itself is included with your TI RTOS installation.  You can find documentation on UIA within the product.  Please have a look within you TI RTOS installation.  For example, on my machine it's here:

    tirtos_1_10_00_23\products\uia_1_03_00_02\docs

    Hi Steve, and thanks.

    Unfortunately, it does not answer any of my questions about UIA. The docs only contain system analyzer getting started and user's guide, which does not contain any information about, for example, how I could extend the UIA with custom messages. The links on the webpage provided would be great reading material, but they are not clickable.

    Greetings

    Anders

    Hi Anders,

    To extend UIA means to develop your own RTSC module that would sit alongside the rest of the UIA modules.  This could be complicated or easy based on your knowledge of XDCtools and RTSC.  If you are interested in that route, please see the RTSC pedia site:

    http://rtsc.eclipse.org/docs-tip/Main_Page

    Another option is to pick an existing UIA module that may be close to what you want.  You could modify an rebuild that module to your liking.

    I also found this post which is related to your question:
