CODECOMPOSER: Add a new compiler (TI ARM Clang: ti-cgt-armllvm_2.1.3.LTS) to CCS12.8.1 on Linux via the command line

Hello,

I tried this CCS 12.8.0 on my Ubuntu 22.04 PC.

My current environment initially did not have clang 2.1.3 LTS discovered:

So I downloaded it from ti.com and installed in a separate path /home/sdoapps/test. I then ran the command to add that discovery path:

Then I re-ran the inspect command and it was discovered:

Note that you mentioned this command:

eclipsec -nosplash -data <workspace> -application com.ti.common.core.initialize -ccs.toolDiscoveryPath "<path1>;<path2>"

Note that "eclipsec" is for windows and "eclipse" is for linux. I would like to confirm that you used "eclipse", correct?

Thank you for confirming.

Yes, I was using “eclipse”, but it was not added like your environment.

In my environment, I have ti-cgt-armllvm_2.1.3.LTS installed in /home/user/ti, but in your environment it is installed separately, so would it be better to install it separately in the same way?

You should not have to. 

I repeated my experiment, except this time I moved the 2.1.3 compiler into ~/ti like the rest of the compilers:

2.1.3 compiler moved to ~/ti:
