CODECOMPOSER: system.xml editor for a system project not supported in CCS 20.1.0

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software:

Hello,

I am trying to migrate a multicore system project to the latest CCS version (20.1.0) but it only displays the system settings file (system.xml) in raw xml format unlike the old version which has a dedicated editor like shown in the image below.

Do I need to install an extension for this feature?

Thank you

    Hi Khalil,

    This feature is on the roadmap, for now editing the system.xml file is the current solution.

    Hi Patrick,

    Thanks for the reply and the clarification.

    I also noticed that in the new CCS:

    - There is no option to show variable addresses in the Watch window

    - Unlike the old CCS, Enums are not interpreted in the watch window and are just shown as integer (casting them doesn't seem to work even though it's just C code)

    - The memory browser doesn't find variables (Data) and only works with functions (Program)

    Kind regards,

    Khalil

    >> Have you try to enter "&variable"?

    Hi Patrick,

    Thanks for the update!

    Yes it works with the ampersand, I used to just do "View Memory" form the "Expressions" tab on the old CCS, which is missing in the new version, so I didn't realise that I needed to add the ampersand.

    Also, it would be nice to have the ability to select both CPUs to do a "CPU Reset". In the new CCS I can only select one CPU at a time. Many thanks

    Kind regards,

    Khalil
