CCS v5.1 RC2: Symbol 'Diags_USER1' could not be resolved

Hi Enrique,

In your project tree if you right click on the .h files, do they get resolved?  Do they show the location and file size? 

I did as you asked:  I right click on the .h of "xdc/runtime/Diags.h" from the orginal import of the project,  it did not show the location or the fiile size.

When you imported the project, did you select "copy project into workspace"?  

When you mention “When you imported the project,…”, it got me thinking on what I did.  I did not use “Project->Import Existing CCS/CCE Project” method.  Our legacy CCS v4.2 project is stored in our SVN repository.  There for, I used Eclipse SVN software tool to import the project.  I noticed the project being changed and I thought it imported the project correctly.  It seemed that was not the case.

This time around I used another SVN tool to copy the project over from the repository and stored it in a different directory.  Then I did “import existing CCS project” of the project I just copied over.  Doing that, now I am able to resolve “Diags_USER1” .

Have you double checked all include variables and paths are there?

The only thing I needed to add was search paths for “xdctools” in the compiler and linker.
