I am new to TI-RTOS, and RTOS in general, so I am following the workshop series on TI-RTOS and I must say it is very informative (though it does need some updating, I think). I've gotten to part 4 where we finally start to build the first RTOS project. I followed all the installation instructions carefully, though I have used CCS6 extensively in the past, just not with RTOS. At first, I thought perhaps some of the things I had installed, or my configuration, was the problem, so I uninstalled CCS and did a fresh install. I re-installed TI-RTOS for MSP43X from the App Center, as well as MSPware. I allowed CCS to do all the available updates (one of which failed, because it needed administrator privileges, which I was able to install separately). I noticed that it was trying to use a newer version of XDC tools, and falling back to an older version that was already installed, so I downloaded and extracted the newest version of XDC (3.32.0.06_core). I am using TI-RTOS 2.16.0.08 with the newest version of CCS (downloaded today) -- 6.1.2.00015.
Here is what the console says after attempting to build the example (not minimal) TI-RTOS for MSP43X project, configured to use MSP430F5529:

I tried re-building using the other versions of XDC that are installed (3.31.1.33 and 3.31.0.24). It is using the TI v16.3.0STS compiler (which was a huge surprise when I downloaded, I thought last time I used it it was at version 5 or 6?!). Am I missing something? Is there an incompatibility between the version of TI-RTOS and XDC? In the workshop he highlighted the fact that they needed to be compatible versions, though I don't know why the version installed directly from the App Center with the newest version of XDC from the website would be incompatible...
Any and all help is much appreciated -- I'm at a dead standstill until I can figure this out.
