CCS/TMDXIDK57X-LCD: Importing IPC example

Part Number: TMDXIDK57X-LCD

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello Team,

I have an am5728 IDK and I am trying to import an example provided by ti, to code composer studio, I have another open issue about IPC, ti example resides in "C:\ti\ipc_3_50_03_05\examples\AM572X_bios_elf\ex02_messageq" , so far, I have found some useful points in here  and here, following are steps I have done to compile  Host part of the example (cortex A15):

I added (copy) these files to my project: App.c, App.h, AppCommon.h, mainHost.c, ipc.cfg.xs, Host.cfg.

I also removed main.c and .cfg files from the default project created by CCS.

I also changed:

 var ipc_cfg = xdc.loadCapsule("../shared/ipc.cfg.xs");  to var ipc_cfg = xdc.loadCapsule("ipc.cfg.xs"); in Host.cfg

#include "../shared/AppCommon.h" to #include "AppCommon.h" in app.c.

I added "C:\ti\ipc_3_50_03_05\examples\AM572X_bios_elf\ex02_messageq\shared\config.bld"  to XDCTools=> advanced options

(at this point, I'm not sure whether to add profile:debug in --cfgArgs or not)

I added a ":host" to my platform 

when I hit the build, following errors occur:

**** Build of configuration Debug for project A15_ipcFromExmpl ****

I'm using bios_6_75_02_00, ccs9_10, ipc_3_50_03_05, xdctools_3_51_01_18, and rocessor_sdk_rtos_am57xx_6_00_00_07.

Here is my project folder:

IPCTestProject001.zip

any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Alex.

    OK, still I don't know where I am supposed to enter related input in CCS so that Program.build.cfgArgs can return something instead of null, But, I figured it out by creating an object in my *.cfg files like bellow:

    ...
var Program = xdc.useModule('xdc.cfg.Program');
Program.build.cfgArgs = {profile:"debug"};  /* i added this line */
var cfgArgs = Program.build.cfgArgs;
var RB = (cfgArgs.profile == "release" ? true : false);
...

    Here is my project folder including cortex-A15 and C66x projects if someone was facing the same issue.

    IPCTestProject001.rar

    and this is the result:

    But my question still remains unanswered.

    B.R,

    Alex.

    Hi Alex,

    Your method of adding cfg arguments works just as well, but you can also add the arguments in your CCS build settings > Build > XDCtools > Advanced Options > Configuration script arguments (--cfgArgs).

    Hi Sahin,

    settings > Build > XDCtools > Advanced Options > Configuration script arguments (--cfgArgs) is what I was thinking, but I was wrong about the syntax, I had already tried profile:"debug" and  profile:debug, after your post I also tried  profile=debug and finally my journey stoped at profile="debug" which is the correct syntax!!

    Thank you for your help.

    Bests,

    Alex.
