[OMAP5912] Can't find file *.obj for input

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP5912, OMAP3530, OMAP3503

Hi, everyone1

I'm learning the OMAP5912 and want to build a program which can be run in DSP of the OMAP.

But when I was compiling the project with the cdb file, there was a problem which said that the *obj file that should be generated from the cdb file can not be find for input!

I've tried many times but failed. I've checked that no .obj file was generated from the .cdb file.

Would you please help me get rid of this problem?

Thanks a lot!

  • Bob,

    DSP/BIOS now uses tcf files instead of cdb files.  There is a conversion tool that comes with DSP/BIOS to convert your cdb file to a tcf file.  Perhaps if you try adding the cdb file to your project then CCS will prompt you to automatically convert it to tcf.  Ultimately you need to add the tcf file to your project.  When you do a "rebuild all" with the tcf file added it will run an additional steps which generates files which I *think* you're looking for.  It actually generates C and assembly files so you would need to compile/assemble them to get obj files.

    FYI, the OMAP5912 is not recommended for new designs.  I was able to answer this question because it was more of a DSP/BIOS question.  In general though you will be able to get a lot better support using an OMAP3 development board such as the "beagle board" or the omap3evm.  If you've not already taken a look at OMAP3 (e.g. OMAP3530 or OMAP3503) I highly recommend it.
