CCSv4 & CCSv4 DSS does not accept Chinese characters in directory names for "out" or "zip" files

CCSv4 DSS is quite useful.

For example C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\scripting\examples\loadti\loadti.bat" -a -c MSP430G2402.ccxml example_program.out

Can load a MSP430G2402 "out" file without needing to start up CCSv4 GUI, however CCSv4 DSS does not accept directory names with Chinese characters in them.

I tried using a Chinese character directory name , but without any Chinese character equivalent of any of the English characters which are not allowed for a file/folder name (like / \ ? * |)

The result

*       CCS4 can accept this as a workspace.

*       CCS4 will not import a zipped MSP project archive from a directory which has a Chinese character name, but if I move the same zipped MSP project archive out of the Chinese character name directory, then CCS4 will accept it.

*       CCS4 DSS has the same issue but with "out" files in a directory name with Chinese characters.

 

Can this be fixed so that CCSv4 and CCsv4 DSS will accept Chinese character names (but without any Chinese character equivalent of any of the English characters which are not allowed for a file/folder name (like / \ ? * |)

 

I am using CCSv4 4.2.3.00004

    Hi Paul,

    Are you getting a "File is not available" error?

    Hi Ki,

     

    No, at least for DSS, I am getting a different error see below.

    Note the Chinese character directory name (D:\My Documents\回覆) that I used for test shows in the DOS window batch file command correctly, but DSS reports "回覆" back as  "??" after that" .

    Actually the "ccxml" file is in the same directory as the "bat" and "out" files.

    my batch file looks like this:

    =============

    call "C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\scripting\examples\loadti\loadti.bat" -a -c MSP430G2553.ccxml TestProgram.out
    pause

    =============

    No matter what the Chinese character name is the problem still occurs.

    D:\My Documents\回覆>call "C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\scri
    pting\examples\loadti\loadti.bat" -a -c MSP430G2553.ccxml TestProgram.out

    Yes I see those issues also. DOS doesn't know how to display the Chinese characters so it just displays it as "??". And CCS support for Chinese characters is limited to source code commenting and C/IO. It doesn't really support source (or executable) file names and paths.
