    Please consult the SDK's user guide in the /docs folder.  Section 4.5 contains information on setting up the build environment and rebuilding drivers and test code. Building in the SDK is done with makefiles and gmake (gmake is installed with the SDK).  If you have modified the CANFD driver and want to rebuild both driver and test code, you will do the following (once the environment is setup)

    cd <driver folder>

    gmake clean

    gmake all

    Thanks for the reply,
    I have gone through the document.
    By using those commands, it is generate .xer4f file, I tried the .xer4f with CCS. It is working fine with code composer studio
    But I'm trying to generate ".bin" file for the same test application.

    Ah, I see. To generate an executable .bin file, you need to run the Image Creator tools.  You will find them in C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_04_00_03\packages\scripts\ImageCreator. There is a user guide in that folder as well. In your case, you would only need to create an image with the MSS .xer4f - for a test driver executable, you won't need DSS or BSS firmware images. The command sequence is not too straightforward, so I would also refer you to either the mmw demo's makefiles, or any of the lab's projectspec files in the Automotive or Industrial toolboxes located in the TI Resource Explorer.
