CODECOMPOSER: Assembly code syntax highlighting in CCS-Theia (20.0.2)

Steven Borley

Tool/software:

Is it possible to get syntax highlighting in assembly files (.asm and .inc) rather than plain text? It used to work in CCS12.8.1 (albeit not automatically for .inc files)

I've just moved a C2000 project that is heavily on assembly code to the Theia based CCS-20.0.2 and only the .c and .h files have syntax highlighting in the editor.

If it's not in the default configuration is there an extension that might help me? I tried the C2000 IDEA extension, but it did not help (it didn't say it would but I had hope)

Hello,

Thanks for reporting this. This looks to be an oversight. I filed a bug for this. Tracking link: https://sir.ext.ti.com/jira/browse/EXT_EP-12206

Thanks

What do you think of this extension:

You can install the VSIX file via:

It is admittedly basic for some of our asm files but it doesn't have any issue that I had with some of the others I tried

I think that's a big improvement over having nothing. It colours the comments, labels and literals but it does a poor job with the actual assemby code (x86-64 being very different from C2000)
