CCS 6 and C6748 - linker warning

Andreas Merkle

I installed CCS6 and TI-RTOS 2.00.01.23 via app center.

During Installation of CCS6 in the processor dialog I choose

Media Processors
- Integra Device Support
- TI C6000 Compiler
- GCC ARM Compiler

Then I imported the hello world example via resource explorer. it compiled, but I get now a linker warning:

can't find the library 'lib/ti.targets.rts6000.a674' specified by package ti.targets.rts6000.

Same happens if I create a new minimal project. Did I miss something? All the documentation I found in the wiki is about older CCS and older SYS/BIOS which were not really helpful.

Hi Andreas,

There is a known bug with TI-RTOS for C6000; not all of the device targets are supported, yet the examples still show up in resource explorer. The current solution is to download SYS/BIOS 6.40.01.15 (which does have the targets) install and import the examples from SYS/BIOS.

Thanks,

Hi Emmanuel,

thanks for the info. I will download the SYS/BIOS and try it again.

Cheers

Hi Andreas,

I am sure you are already up and running with SYS/BIOS, but let me expand on my comment. TI-RTOS is intentionally only supporting ELF output format; not COFF. The example project is set to COFF by default. If you change the project properties to ELF the TI-RTOS example should work fine.

Thanks,

Hi Emmanuel,

thats an interesting information, because if we use the ELF format, its not necssary to install the SYS/BIOS parallel to TI-RTOS.

Thanks.

Cheers
Andreas
