RTOS/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X: Rebuilding pdk_am335x_1_0_12 in windows fails

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hello,

I've install the processor SDK for the AM335x 05.01.00.11 and I'm trying to rebuild the shipped psk, pdk_am335x_1_0_12.

I had no problems with the previous version pdk_am335x_1_0_11.

I've copied & pasted the output for gmake clean 

C:\ti\pdk_am335x_1_0_12\packages>pdksetupenv.bat

pdk_am335x_1_0_11 uses gmake and sh from C:\ti\xdctools_3_50_03_33_core

pdk_am335x_1_0_12 is using gmake and sh from C:\ti\xdctools_3_50_07_20_core, so I'm suspecting the issue is to do with the change of tools. Or perhaps my PC is missing a dependency for the new tools.

    Paul,

    The command line forking issue is somethings that we have intermittently seen from end users but don`t necessarily completely understand as this seems to be caused but cycgwin/mingw/mysys tools that are setup on Windows machine that seem to impact Processor SDK RTOS build on Windows on some machines. Can you confirm that you don`t have any cygwin, miggw or msys tools in your environment path

    you can check from posts below, that other users have reported and found work arounds for these issues:

    The one time that we were able to reproduce this issue, restarting the machine and opening new command line to restart the process solved the issue and in that test case we had several msys based sessions open due to GITbash open.

    Another tip that I would give to you to save some time, is that with Processor SDK RTOS, you should never be required to do a gmake clean. The installer provides a prebuilt version of all driver and component libraries. The only things that you need to build are demos and examples so using gmake with specific command line options that limit the build will save you plenty of time during development:

    We are working on adding this update to the SDK documentation here:

    http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-rtos/esd/docs/latest/rtos/Overview.html#building-pdk-using-gmake-in-windows-environment

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    Rahul

    Hi Rahul,

    I checked the PATH environment variable as suggested and found C:/TI/XDCTOOLS_3_25_02_70. 

    After removing this from the PATH, the PDK build operations worked as expected.

    I will be making some changes to the PDK for our custom board so I will need to at least rebuild the PDK board libs.

    Thanks for you help,

    Regards,

    Paul.
