after i clone the drive, CCS works weird

David Chance

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

My TM4C1294 project on HDD was working perfectly until I clone the drive.

After I clone my drive from HDD to SSD, everything works fine except CCS

In my project, I have many .C files and .H files, all the global #define are in .H files, such as 

mydef.h:

#define myoption

...

myproject.c:

#include "mydef.h" 

#ifdef myoption

mycodes..

#endif

After cloning, the project's .C files can still see the .H files, but it won't include any of the #define statements. In the above example, I can even click on mydef.h in the #include statement and open the file properly and see #define myoption, but in myproject.c, mycodes is always grayed out, as if myoption was never defined.

I've never seen such thing, and I tried multiple actions, such as renaming mydef.h, adding full file path to #include, nothing works

Could anyone give me some pointers? Thanks!

    Hi David,

    If the project builds fine, but just an issue with code highlighting in the editor, can you try rebuilding the index for the project?

    Thanks

    I rebuild and refresh the index, same result.

    It may have built properly, but since the highliigh is a big mess, there is no way I can prove all the #if and #ifdef are processed properly. Both active block and non-active block defined conditionally by #if and #ifdef are highlighted, making it impossible to figure out which section of code is active

    This is a very old and unsupported version of CCS. I would try updating to a version more current.

    You can also try cleaning your workspace folder.

    I have bad experience with upgrading CCS before, that's why i hardly upgrade

    i wonder if i can just upgrade CCS and leave the compiler, toolchain, etc alone

    if i take this path, where do i find the latest ccs without touching my compiler/library/toolchain/etc?

    Understood. Try cleaning the workspace folder first. Perhaps that will resolve the issue

    You can use older versions of the toolchain with a newer CCS IDE. What I recommend is to leave your 6.2 installation alone and then install CCS 10.3 in a different directory. Then you can point your CCS 10.3 installation to use the compiler from 6.2 by specifying the discovery path to the compiler that comes in 6.2:

    I would like to try your suggestion to install 10.3

    After specifying the compiler, how do i specify 10.3 to use the original library toolchain source?

    Installed 10.3 and imported the project and switched to CCSV6/tools/compiler

    When I build the project, got the following errors, any chance for you to give me some pointers?

    Can you provide your full build output. I would like to see everything in the build console. You can copy&paste to a text file and attach the file to this thread.

    Thanks

    Hi David,

    Let's work on one thing at a time in this thread. Can you provide the build output for the other project? I split other post to a new thread

    After a clean rebuild, these errors disappeared. it may actually work (maybe the .obj files built by ccs 6 is not compatible with 10), I need to check 

    To check it, I need to build the full project in a batch file

    Here is what I do with CCS6 (one line in a long batch file)

    C:\ti\ccsv6\eclipse\eclipsec -noSplash -data "C:\Users\chen window 10\workspace_v6_2" -application com.ti.ccstudio.apps.projectBuild -ccs.projects usb_udp_thumb_tryout_214 -ccs.configuration x4108

    Do I simply change ccsv6 to ccs10?

    C:\ti\ccs1031\ccs\eclipse\eclipsec -noSplash -data "C:\Users\chen window 10\workspace_v10" -application com.ti.ccstudio.apps.projectBuild -ccs.projects usb_udp_thumb_tryout_214 -ccs.configuration x4108

    Do I need any extra switch?

    The command-line build system should work the same between the versions. 

    One suggestion. I noticed that your username has spaces in it. This sometimes can cause issues:
