bios install dir, Configuration1cfg_c.c compile failures

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

I'm trying to build my background tasks (non-codec part of the project). I used the DSP/BIOS configuration tool to identify what I needed.

Last week I had a problem with CCStudio and had to reinstall it. At that time, bios_5_33_03 was removed from the CCStudio_v3.3 directory and BIOS_INSTALL_DIR became bios_5_33_01. I have been getting build errors that suggested that the BIOS_INSTALL_DIR was the old one, so I changed the environment variable BIOS_INSTALL_DIR to point to the newer one. I did a build clean and rebuilt, but the errors continue to suggest that the Configuration1cfg_c.c file is using the old directory. (See below.) I haven't been able to figure out where the compiler is finding the old install directory. Can someone point me to the thing to change? (PS: I obviously have other problems, but I'm more concerned with the path for now, since I had the build working before.)

  • Additional info: I've restarted the computer, and it made no difference. The Configuration1_c.c compilation still points to the bios_5_33_01 directory. I'm willing to delete or rename the directory, but somehow I doubt that it would help...

  • Flamingo,

    You need to re-install BIOS 5.33.03 - but I believe that you already did that.

    After you reinstalled DSP/BIOS and changed that environmental variable, you need to make sure that you have changed the Component Manager. 

    Go to CCS -> Help-> About…, click on Component Manager. Expand Target Content (DSP/BIOS) for TMS320C64XX and for TMS320C67XX and select Texas Instruments DSP/BIOS <5.33.03>. Go to the menu, File -> Save to save the configuration. Restart CCS for the changes to take effect.
