CCS/IWR6843ISK-ODS: Why does the printf statement cannot output information into console?

Part Number: IWR6843ISK-ODS

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I am trying to debug the area scanner demo with IWR6843ISK-ODS in CCS. I added a print statement in gtrack_step.c. But there is no output in console when I load the project into the board and run the area_scanner demo. I noticed that this condition also exists in many other source file, such as \packages\ti\utils\cli\src\cli.c. The details is shown as below.

I wonder why the sentence "I'm here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" cannot be output into the console?

Regards,

Jie

Hi,

I've done more further test. It is stranger that the project can still be rebuild successfully even if I delet the gtrack_step.c and the cli.c file. I would like to know where is the statement like "extern int32_t CLI_open (CLI_Cfg* ptrCLICfg);"in cli.h link to when executing the program? It seems that this statement is not linked to the function CLI_open() in the cli.c file since there is no effect if I delete the cli.c. So I wonder where can I find the location that define the function.

Regards,

Jie

Hi Jie,

For gtrack_step.c did you re-build the tracker library?

The project links the library, so if you don't rebuild the library it will keep linking old library.

Thanks

Hi Jie,

Please check the source code in:
