Process failed when use tiobj2bin to generate binary file

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hi All,

I use tiobj2bin.bat to convert .out to .bin as the steps below, but it failed.

1. I copy the essential 3 exe(ofd6x,hen6x and mk6x) under C:\Texas Instruments\ccsv5\tools\compiler\c6000\bin to cg_xml\utils directory.(Not necessary, just for convenience)

2. Type the command in console as:

C:\Texas Instruments\cg_xml\ofd>tiobj2bin.bat myprj.out myprj.bin ..\utils\ofd6x.exe ..\utils\hex6x.exe ..\utils\mk6x.exe

But in the process, the console report the error:

>> File "c:\docume~1\admini~1\locals~1\temp\ofd_11111_6748_22864.xml" not an archive
error: -image requires ROMS directive

I check the tiobj2bin.bat and find ofd_xx_xx_xx.xml should be an intermediate file which is generated from .out by ofd6x.exe and is used to generate hex file by hex6x.exe. I don't know why the error occurs. And I try to change the path and name of this file, but the result is the same.

The version of my CCS is 5.0.3.00023 and the cg_xml is 2.30.

Hi Allen,

The command line invocation for tiobj2bin is (note the mkhex4bin instead of mk6x):

tiobj2bin.bat "filename.out" "filename.bin" "${CG_TOOL_ROOT}/bin/ofd6x.exe" "${CG_TOOL_ROOT}/bin/hex6x.exe" "${CCE_INSTALL_ROOT}/utils/tiobj2bin/mkhex4bin.exe"

The usage is mentioned at the top of the file tiobj2bin.bat.

Let us know if this works.

Thanks, AartiG.

It works, I misused the last .exe.

Hello Aarti,

I could able to generate the binary image via tiobj2bin

But, before loading it to board is their any way that i can verify that the

bin file which is generated is correct or not (i.e. by cross verifying it with the *.out file)

Attached is the zip folder which contains *.out file and *.bin file generated.

Regards,

Priya

TI has no such verification tool.

Hi,

I am using latest SYSBIOS and after building project i got .out file. I want to convert it to .bin so that I can put it on SD card to boot my BBB. But i am facing problem. I downloaded "cg_xml-v2_32_00-Setup"(since i am following this thread). It says cannot open "hello_BeagleBone_Black_CortexA.out".

View tiobj2bin.bat with your favorite text editor. The first few lines are comments which discuss how to invoke it.

Thanks and regards,
