Currently using CCS V3.1 but looking for CCS V4.1.x toolset to support TMS320C55X

Hi.

We have a tms320c55x chip we are using with CCS 3.1 with DSP/BIOS. We would like to upgrade the compiler so we can build the code is parallel as V3.1 does not support this. I found toolset 4.4.1. However, when I use it, at the final link step I get a warning:

warning: Section ".bios" is found in

"C:/Tools/CodeComposerStudio/4.4.1/C5500/bios/lib/bios.a55l 5l>", this could cause potential compatibility problem. Please use 4.1.x
tools or update your DSP BIOS

What I did since I couldn't find updates for all the pieces was make a copy of my V3.1 installation and then copy in the V4.4.1 toolset over the V3.1 toolset (CodeComposerStudio\4.4.1\C5500\cgtools\bin).  I tried with entire 4.4.1 folder and with just the tools in the bin folder.  The build seems to go well, it's just the warning in the final linking stage.

I tried looking for the V4.1 toolset but can't find it. Any way you have it archived somewhere? We are not in a position to upgrade the software design - just wanted a better compiler.


Thanks!!
