Setting global variables within a GEL file

Hello engineers,

yet another problem in GEL usage. Up to CCSv3.x I used to set values for the DSP program global variables from wothin the GEL file. It worked fine.

Now I am using CCSv4.2 and I have problems with this.

If I set the value of the global variable before running the target (in this case I am usign GEL_SyncRun() as I have a multicore target) then all works fine, i.e. the DSP sees the value of the variable and runs consequently.

If I want to set again that variable while the target is running, then in no way the DSP will see it. I have also tried using GEL_MemoryFill(...). The value of the variable seen by the DSP is stuck to the value that it had before the target was running.

Is this my problem or a general one?

What about using DSS? Will I have similar problems also there or it will be easier?

Thanks in advance
