CCS5 Simulation

Hello,

CCSv5 is a much different environment than v3. I recommend looking at the various introductory material on the main v5 wiki page:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Category:Code_Composer_Studio_v5

There is a getting started guide and some videos to help get you started. Not all the material is specific to simulators but the process of creating projects and configuring CCS for a target (whether simulator or hardware).

Here is a video for CCSv4 that shows how to create a target configuration for a simulator. The steps for v5 are similar;

Hi Azzar,

CCSv5 uses a target configuration file to configure and debug.  If you wish to enter the debugger, you will need to start with one of these.  They are usually part of/included in a project but can also be created and used stand alone.  It is in the target configuration file where you select the simulator.  This is also where eventually you will select the emulator/debugger (the Blackhawk or XDS100 for example). These are .ccxml files.

In CCS if you wish to see what one looks like you can go to view ->Target configurations or create and edit one by File->New->Target Configuration File.

Here are some links to wikis and resources to help you get started
