Can't get SYS/BIOS example to build

brady

Hi all,

I am just checking out SYS/BIOS (I have been using DSP/BIOS for a while), and I can't even get any of the examples to build.

My tools:

CCS v4.2.1

Code generation tools 7.0.4

SYS/BIOS 6.31.02.23

XDC tools 3.20.07.86

Target hardware is 6455 DSK.

My procedure:

1. in CCS, file -> new CCS project, using project template from SYS/BIOS, Generic examples, any of them (e.g., "Clock Example").

2. Project -> build active project.

Build fails with a ton of javascript errors in the console related to syntax errors in package.bld.

Example:

js: "./package.bld", line 14: missing } after property list

And the relevant line(s) from package.bld:

13: var exeOpts = new Executable.Attrs({
14:       cfgScript: 'C:/Documents and Settings/username/My Documents/workspace/exampleProj/clock.cfg',
15:        profile: 'debug',
16:        cfgHome: 'configPkg',
17: });

I have no idea how to debug this, and package.bld is generated by CCS anyhow. What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance,

-Brady

Brady,

In the New Project Wizard, what did you specify for the RTSC target and platform?

Did it look something like this?

David,

Yes, it was exactly that.

It's not clear to me why you are having an issue with this. Can you post your entire error output?

Thx,

Dave

Hi Brady,

Can you attach your project to this post?

Thanks

And one more question (sorry). You posted the line containing the error as:

C:/Documents and Settings/username/My Documents/workspace/exampleProj/clock.cfg

So I'm guessing you replaced your actual user name with the word "username". Does your actual user name contain any non-alphanumeric characters, in particular single quotes or double quotes?

thanks,
Jon

Hey folks,

Thanks for all of the quick replies. It appears Jon called it: my username includes an apostrophe (aka single quote) which was mucking things up. Putting the project in a different path solved the problem.

Thanks again,

Brady
