TMS470 Toolchain configuration.

Hi,

I'm new to Linux development and have just installed the SDK "AM3517SDK 05_03_02_00" according to the installation guide.

My target platform is the Zoom AM3517EVM from Logic PD.
I have the bootloader and the 2.6.37 kernel running on the target platform. (Recompiled from sources.)

I noticed that CCS is now using the TMS470 toolchain instead of the Code Sourcery toolchain which I have previousley used with CCS 5.0.1.

When I create a new CCS Project with default settings I am unable to succesfully build a hello world application using the new setup.

The source for the program is simple:

#include <stdio.h>

/*
 * hello.c
 */
void main(void) {
    printf("Hello World!\n");
}

The output from the build process is:

**** Build of configuration Debug for project hello_world ****

**** Build Finished ****

When I run the hello_world.out on the target board i get the error " /usr/bin/hello_world.out: line 1: syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") ", which to me suggest that the file is not recognized as an executable.

If I change the Device Endianness from "be32" to "little" and rebuild and rerun on the target I get the message "Killed".

I must be missing something obvious but I just don't see it.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Best regards,
Brian.
