trouble with dsplinkcfg.pl

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP3530

I am trying to use this to configure DSP/link to build the libraries. 

My questions are:

Do you run it once with all options on the command line?

Why don't I see the feedback per doc LNK 058 USR that show 'when successful.....'?  If i leave off --platform I get an error, but otherwise I get nothing.

What actually gets modified  by doing all this?  or How can you verify what happened?

I see references to dsplinkcfg on other postings that only list a couple of parameters, how many minimal required?

I have DSP/Link 1.61.03  and ActivePerl 5.10.0  under Vista

 

TIA

Dave

    Further update.

    In looking at the response to --platform,  it tells me only JACINT01 and JACINT02  are supported.

    Do I have the wrong version DSPLINK?

    what does this mean?

    This does not sound right; where did you get this dsplink from?  I have only tried the Linux version myself and was able to build for OMAPL137 using this version of dsplink (see http://tiexpressdsp.com/index.php/Building_The_OMAP-L137_SDK for options used); this is why I asked where did you get this version of DSPLINK from; did it come in a DVSDK or did you downloaded individually (url would be useful)?

    Hi Juan,

    I got the download from

    javascript:generate_eula_dialog('https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/dsplink_ti_bsd_gpl2_license.html','link_1_61_03/dsplink_1_61_03.tar.gz','dsparchive@dlemail.itg.ti.com')

    At least I am pretty sure thats what I got and not the porting kit.

    I peeked around in the perl script (i am not familiar with perl) and it looks like it should be showing me menus and interactive selections.  The script seems to have entries for the OMAP paltforms, but in the 'databases' part it only lists the JACINTO platforms. If I select one of those I get the feedback the book says. If I select OMAP I get an error, although it seems to be generating a file called OMAP3530 (dont recall extension) and a JACINTO file when i chose that.  At some point I think I had only one '=' in the --platform spec and I think that just caused no output at all.

    I am performing all this from the command line since  running the dsplinkcfg.bat file gives no feedback at all.  At least doing it manually, I get something.

    I am not trying to build for the GPP, another team is doing that for Threadex. I am only interested in the OMAP3530 DSP side of things.

    Can you tell me what I should expect to see when I run dsplinkcfg.pl?  The manual says it is an interactive process, but the following descriptions are really kind of poor. 

    thanks

    Update

    Apparently what I downloaded was the porting kit.

    javascript:generate_eula_dialog('https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/dsplink_tspa.html','link_1_61_03/dsplink_sla_1_61_03.tar.gz','dsparchive@dlemail.itg.ti.com')

    I poked around in both archives and the porting kit has only the JACINTO (whatever that is) platform choices in dsplinkcfg  and the other download for 1.61.03 has all of them.  It also includes the  install guide for OMAP, which was referenced in the user guide but not int he archive. 

    So I will start all over with the the non porting kit. 

    I would still like to know what is expected output when I run dsplinkcfg.pl

     

    thanks

    have you seen this post: http://e2e.ti.com/forums/p/6994/26997.aspx#26997; it appears someone has built DSPLINK in windows for OMAPL1, OMAP35x should be similar; I have no built in Windows side myself so I am afraid I cannot offer much advice here.
