I try to config my app_d.cfg by XGConf and all the time I have this:

Sorry, I'm having problems creating this editor. An unexpected exception was thrown.

Index: 0, Size: 0

I have seen a "Sorry, I'm having problems creating this editor. An unexpected exception was thrown" error in the past when trying to open a .cfg file in XGConf but the error was followed by "org.eclipse.rtsc.xdctools.INVALID_CODEGEN_LOCATION: Invalid codegen location" when clicked on details. E.g. the thread "org.eclipse.rtsc.xdctools.INVALID_CODEGEN_LOCATION: Invalid codegen location" on open of SYS/BIOS .cfg file in CCS 6.2.0.00050. On the problem in the referenced thread building the project and the closing and re-opening the .cfg file made the error go away.

For more information, I use Windows 10 64 bit, 1803, CCS 8.3.0.00009.

My *.cfg fileapp_r.cfg

Yes. In this project:  47146.test.zip

It can be opened by XGConf, in this case I have

and 

It was compiled once, now it doesn't compile. I've not resolved yet.

**** Build Finished ****

The reasons for the build errors are:

1. The Platform has been set to "xdc.platform.generic", but the 'deviceName' and 'catalogName' parameters have not been set.

2. The XDCtools version has been set to 3.25.04.88, which is incompatible with the SYS/BIOS 6.40.01.15 used by TI-RTOS for Sitara 2.0.1.23.

I was able to get the example project to compile by:

a. Changing the Platform to ti.platforms.beaglebone. The correct platform to use depends upon your hardware. Are you using a TI EVM or a custom board?

b. Changing the XTCtools version to 3.30.1.25 which is the version listed in the release notes for TI-RTOS for Sitara 2.0.1.23.

And now I need XGConf works on my current project, which we've discussed early.

Sergei, it looks like your current project is corrupted somehow. 

You can try the steps below to clean out your CCS environment/workspace to see if that helps.

If not, then I would suggest creating a new project based on your existing current project. Another option is to send me your project folder so i can inspect the contents to see if I can find what is corrupted.

Thanks

Can you count this steps? For avoiding any mistakes and to be sure that I will do all it properly.

The 2nd (-clean) and 3rd (clean the workspace) steps in the link below is what I was thinking:

Sergei Petrov said:

I hope you understand I can't send you my project, might you count which files and folder do you need for inspecting?

I understand. What I am hoping for is the .*project metadata files (all three) in the project folder.

Thanks

three_files_project.tar

Thank you

Hello

What's about my files?

Here you are:

logs_in_metadata.tar

is the XDCtools version 3.51.02.21 right version for my CCS?

Do you mean our working project?

Hello

Sorry for my delay. Last week was hard.

I've created new project, but in this time I've got this:

Please fix the following errors. Then close and relaunch the XGConf editor.
Error: Can't find the platform package 'ti.platforms.evmAM3359'. TI platforms are no longer shipped as part of XDCtools (C:/ti/xdctools_3_32_00_06_core). Please ensure you are either using a pre-3.30 version of XDCtools or you have added a product that includes your platform support along the path 'C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/packages;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/bios_6_40_01_15/packages;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/ndk_2_23_01_01/packages;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/uia_2_00_00_28/packages;C:/ti/xdctools_3_32_00_06_core;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/bios_6_45_01_29;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/ndk_2_25_00_09;C:/ti/tirtos_sitara_2_00_01_23/products/uia_2_00_05_50;D:/Workspace/test/.config;C:/ti/xdctools_3_32_00_06_core/packages'. Check that this path names a directory containing the necessary platform support and that the platform name is properly spelled.

In Project Properties->CCS General->Products->Target I put armv8 and CCS offers me "ti.platforms.evmAM3359"

After that I've had error in XGConf.

Hello

Sorry for my delay, was a little bit busy.

This my test project:

15500.test.zip

Thank you. I imported your project in to my CCSv8.3, and also installed all the same versions of dependent software (TI-RTOS, etc) used by the project. The cfg file opens fine in xgconf:

The only modification I made was changing the rtsc target from 'armv8' to 'ti.targets.arm.elf.A8Fnv' so that it would build correctly. Otherwise I left everything alone.

There must be something else specific to your environment that is causing the issue. Unfortunately I don't have much more suggestions to offer outside of reinstalling everything and creating a new project from scratch...
