XDC error: Cannot read property "target" from undefined

Hi Jens Biltoft,

Moved this thread to TI-RTOS Forum.

Thanks.

OK, that is probably better, do you have any idea what the problem is?

If I use the command line to run the xs tool The out put is:

making package.mak (because of package.bld) configuring app.xe66 from package/cfg/app_pe66.cfg 
js: "C:/ti/ndk_2_21_02_43/packages/ti/ndk/config/package.xs", line 47: TypeError: Cannot read property "target" from undefined (C:/ti/ndk_2_21_02_43/packages/ti/ndk/config/package.xs#47)
"app.cfg", line 45
"./package/cfg/app_pe66.cfg", line 201
"./package/cfg/app_pe66.cfg", line 280
"./package/cfg/app_pe66.cfg", line 188
gmake.exe: *** [package/cfg/app_pe66.xdl] Error 1

Which is pretty much the same as when I compile from CCS

Jens,

XDCtools 3.23 is not compatible with CCS 5.4. You need to used XDCtools 3.25 or later.

Hi Tom

I have tried changing to XDC 3.25.0.48 but I  still get excactly the same error. There are no probems when compiling the NDK client example eventhough it uses the XDC version 3.23.

The error points to the file C:/ti/ndk_2_22_03_20/packages/ti/ndk/config/package.xs line 47

that have the following content

function init()
{
    // Only process during "cfg" phase
    if (xdc.om.$name != "cfg") {
        return;
    }

    // use the modules required by the NDK OSAL
    if (prog.build.target.name == "C64P"            || // Line 47
        prog.build.target.name == "C64P_big_endian" ||
        prog.build.target.name == "C674"            ||
        prog.build.target.name == "C66"             ||
        prog.build.target.name == "C66_big_endian") {

        var Ecm       = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.family.c64p.EventCombiner');
    }
    var Hwi       = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.hal.Hwi'); 
    var Error     = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Error');
    var Clock     = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.knl.Clock');
    var Semaphore = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.knl.Semaphore');
    var Cache     = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.hal.Cache');
    var Ndk       = xdc.useModule('ti.ndk.rov.Ndk');
}

Any ideas how to set target in the prog.build?

Best

Jens

Jens,

can you please check which version of NDK you are actually using? I see a 1.21 and 1.22 beginning referenced here.

Also, please remove:

xdc.loadPackage("ti.bios.tconf");
var SEM = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.SEM");
var CLK = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.CLK");
var TSK = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.TSK");
var LOG = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.LOG");
var PRD = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.PRD");
var QUE = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.QUE");
var STS = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.STS");
var MBX = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.MBX");
var SWI = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.SWI");
var MEM = xdc.useModule("ti.bios.MEM");

from your app.cfg. These are DSP/BIOS API wrappers for SYS/BIOS. As of NDK 2.22 no longer supports DSP/BIOS and the DSP/BIOS APIs should not be used anymore.

Tom

I have been trying different versions of NDK both 1.21 and 1.22 but it does not change the result.

Going forward I will use 1.21 since I cannot do without the DSP/BIOS API wrappers at the moment.

Jens

Tom

I tried adding the DSP/BIOS wrapper

var Global       = xdc.useModule('ti.ndk.config.Global');

to the client example project, and then I get the same error, eventhough I am using NDK version 1.21

So it seems that there is an issue with compatibility here???

Jens

Jens,

I'm a little bit confused here. var Global = xdc.useModule('ti.ndk.config.Global'); was already in the client.cfg when it worked? What was added to the  client.cfg example? Can you repost the broken client.cfg?

On another note, NDK 2.21 doesn't support DSP/BIOS either, so I don't know if the DSP/BIOS wrappers are causing some issues here. You can perhaps try NDK 2.20, but I don't know if these products will work with it.

MCSDK 2.1.2.6
MCSDK PDK TMS320C6657

Where did you get the client application from? Was it from some SDK?

Tom

It seems that I have made a copy and paste error in my previous post.

The line I added in the beginning of the client.cfg file was

xdc.loadPackage("ti.bios.tconf");

And after adding this I get the same errors as in my own app.cfg.

Other than that it should not be that confusing, I use the example that comes with the NDK 2.21

I would like to try with version 2.20, can you tell me where I can download this version?

Jens

Hi

I tried installing version 2.20, but when I start CCS5.4 it complains that I have version 2.22 installed, so it will not install 2.20.

I really doubt that it would Work though, since C66 is not mentioned before version 2.21. This leds me to conclude that I will have to update my legacy DSP/BIOS code to SYS/BIOS.....bugger!
