mbx module under the full tree view couldn't found

I am able to build the mailbox example. However, when I try to find the "mbx" module by following fulltree--->ti.bios--->MBX--->mbx; I can only get fulltree (in outline pane)--->ti--->sysbios--->BIOS. And there is no module found under BIOS.

Thanks in advance.

  • Hi Cindy,

    Could you please attach a screen shot of the problem you are trying to explain?

  • Please see the attached. You could see that there is no mbx module under fulltree in the outline pane

  • Hi Cindy,

    Unfortunately, that view is no longer supported in the product.  Actually, I should point out to you that the legacy support layer is being phased out, and it is highly recommended to use the SYS/BIOS modules (i.e. nothing in the ti.bios package, which is meant for legacy support).

    I do realize that you are going through the legacy conversion guide, and in order to get your app to use the SYS/BIOS modules, the guide instructs you to convert your app to the legacy layer ... and that's where you've hit this issue.

    But, I would recommend that you skip over this XGCONF step, as it shouldn't be necessary for completing the document; it was more for visual inspection purposes.  You should be able to skip it and continue on with the application note (to Chapter 8), which will also explain how to convert to the newer SYS/BIOS modules, from the legacy support layer described in Chapter 7.

    Then in the future, just be aware that if you need to migrate an existing DSP/BIOS app, the support layer may not be there, and you would need to convert your app directly to the SYS/BIOS modules.
