CCSv5 TI-RTOS doesn't add a module

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDSDOCKH52C1

Hi,

I'm using Code Composer 5.5.0 on TMDSDOCKH52C1. OS is Windows 8.1.

In TMDSDOCKH52C1.c it says that if you want to add a device (e.g UART), you need to use the .cfg file UI.

I have two problems:
1. I mostly can't see the .cfg file UI. All I see is the "Properties" headline with nothing else.
2. When I can see the UI, even if I add the UART device, the UART section in TMDSDOCKH52C1.c UART definition is still remarked as if the #define TI_DRIVERS_UART_INCLUDED is still 0.


Am I doing something wrong?

Regards,

Oryan

  • Hi Oryan,

    What version of TI-RTOS are you using?

    Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

    The grayed out sections within #defines in the board file is a known issue (we moved away from this in more recent releases).  To add the UART driver to your project, open the graphical configuration page, right click on the UART driver box and select "use UART".  The TI_DRIVERS_UART_INCLUDED gets defined during the configuration portion of compilation (so the code does get compiled, it just looks like it won't).  

    Hope this helps,

  • Hi Emmanuel,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I attached the screenshot.

    TI-RTOS version is 1.20.0.28

    Regarding the #define TI_DRIVERS_UART_INCLUDED, I understand. The code compiles.

    I managed to add/remove a driver or a task, but it took me some time to figure out how to do it.

    I moved the project to CCSv6 and there I see the UI, and it is more friendly to use.

    Thanks a lot!
