How to set output directory for all compiled and linked files in CCS6

Blair Conner

Hello,

I'm using CCS v6.1.0 and have been having trouble getting the output directory to change for all of the compiled files. I've been able to get some compiled files (.OUT, .MAP, .TXT, and OBJ) into the directory I want, but CCS always creates a folder with the build configuration name in the project root directory and places some files there. Essentially what I want is a single build directory, which then has sub-directories for each build configuration.

Thank you!

Best regards,

Blair

    This is a very good question, I’m struggling with the same problem and only managed to get the same result as you got, OUT, MAP etc. I asked Ki-Soo Lee this a couple of months ago and got the following answer;

    • Is it possible to create a common ‘Output path’ prior to the Configuration’s output files, for example: [Project name]\”Output”\[Configuration name]\[files ....]?
    There is not a single place where you can specify a default location for all generated executables from all the build configurations to get placed in. But you can prepend a path to the output file name in the Linker -> Basic Options to control where each configuration generates the out file. It is a bit more work however.

    Hi Leo,

    Thank you for your response! Could you provide the steps for the linker options? 

    Regards,

    Hi Blare,

    Unfortunately, there are no steps for what you and I want.
