CCS: Failed to build with New Build Configuration

Hello,

I tried out both CCS 11.0 and CCS 11.1. The issue still exists in CCS 11.0 but appears to be resolved in 11.1. However, this is when I import a project from a projectspec (and the project gets generated for the first time in each respective environment). When I import the project from 11.0 into 11.1, the issue still occurs - even if I delete the cloned confiuration and create a new one in 11.1. 

I will check with engineering to see if there is a way to "repair" the 11.0 project so that cloned configurations will work in 11.1

Thanks for reporting this

Just a quick update, I am still waiting to hear back from engineering. I will pass on any updates as I get them.

After discussing with engineering, I was able to resolve the issue. After importing the old project to 11.1, you have to delete the "broken" new configuration and create a new one. But can't do it in one shot. What I mean by this is that within the dialog to manage the configurations, you need to first delete the broken configuration and then close the dialog. Then reopen it again to create the new configuration. This newly created configuration will work. If you try to delete the configuration and then create a new one of the same name without closing the dialog between the steps, then the newly created configuration will have the same issue. Note that this only applies to when the deleted config and newly created one used the same name. If the newly created configuration is a completely different name, then there is no need for this extra step.

Hi

I use CCS11.1 with a RTSC project and compiler version TIv6.2.11 (target is TMS320F2812). I have 2 working configuration (Debug + Release).

I tried to clone any (Debug or Release), and it's still not working (I keep only Debug + Release, then I restart CCS and I create testDebug then testRelease...).

Makefile located in path testDebug is empty.

When I try to build I get the following errors:

"C:\\ti\\ccs1110\\ccs\\utils\\bin\\gmake" -k -j clean -O
 
gmake: *** No rule to make target 'clean'.

**** Build Finished ****

The issue is still no corrected in CCS 11.1 (the project was natively created by CCS 11.0)

I am unable tor reproduce the issue as long as the workaround is used (as needed). Can you provide a test case project? You can strip down the project to one source file. The project doesn't have to build succesfully, I just need it to reproduce the issue.

Thanks
