CCS 5.1 RC1 - make not found

Chris Jones

Hi,

 

I have a fresh install of the latest CCS 5.1 beta (RC1) on a fresh install of Win 7 Pro. I finally managed to import my existing project but am unable to compile. I get the error:

 

Program "make" is not found in PATH

 

And that's all. What's up with that? I checked my environment variables, and there was nothing TI- or CCS-related in PATH. On my old machine with v.5.1.0.06000, the user PATH has a reference to %XDCROOT%, which contains c:/ccs/ccsv5/../xdctools_3_22_01_21. I tried making similar entries on the new machine (only with updated xdctools directory for the new version), but no go.

 

Any ideas? Has anybody else had this problem?

 

TIA,
Chris

    OK, it's even worse than that now. This morning my old machine is giving me the same message...but it worked fine yesterday!


    What that tells me is that this is maybe more of a problem with my project file (on a shared network directory) than with my new install.

    I have tried playing with some of the project settings, compiler v.3.3.3 vs. v.4.0 etc., but really don't know what I'm doing.

    ...And I need to get back up and going to ship a demo next week.  HELP!!!

    Hi Chris,

    Are you able to build ANY project? Like one of the example templates (like 'hello world")?

    Good question.....

    Yes, it appears I can successfully build a "blink test" app.

    Could you provide the project with the issue? Or better yet, a smaller but reproducible version of it?

    Thanks

    Chris, 

    Could you check in project properties what build command is configured for? Right click on project that fails to build and choose Properties; in bottom left corner there should be a hyperlink called "Show Advanced Settings" then click on C/C++Build category. Could you let me know the Build Command is set to on  "Builder Settings" tab? 

    Thanks,
    Martin

    It just said "make".

    I changed it to "gmake", which _is_ in the directory, and it works now. Thanks for pointing me there!

    The question now is, why did this come up? I didn't change anything in my project, I only used the default options as I had on my old machine, and the old machine also only has gmake. Did it change itself in the new version or something?

    Anyway, it seems to be working OK now. Thanks again!

    That is what I'd like to figure out as well, i.e. why did it change when you imported your project. This is certainly not expected. Unfortunately, to help us make progress we would need a project or a small project from before the import to help reproduce. If you don't want to attach a project to a forum then you could send it to either me or Ki privately. If this is not possible, then maybe you could provide some information on project settings and tools that were used to create the project. i.e. CCS version  your target, compiler version, project layout, are files physically in the project or are they linked in

     

    Thanks,
    Martin
