I am trying to build an application in CCSv5 for BBone. I get the following error

C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/bin/gmake --no-print-directory post-build
"C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/tiobj2bin/tiobj2bin.bat"  "../../../../../../../binary/armv7a/cgttms470_ccs/am335x/beaglebone/gpio/gpioLEDBlink.out"  "../../../../../../../binary/armv7a/cgttms470_ccs/am335x/beaglebone/gpio/gpioLEDBlink.bin"  "C:/ti/ccsv5/tools/compiler/tms470/bin/ofd470.exe"  "C:/ti/ccsv5/tools/compiler/tms470/bin/hex470.exe"
The system cannot find the path specified.
gmake[1]: [post-build] Error 1 (ignored)

I am missing the tiobj2bin.bat file. I looked in ti\ccsv5\ccs_base\ folder and I cannot find it.

Best Regards,

Hmm.. This is unusual. These utils (part of cg_xml is suppose) are always packaged with CCS.

If you have an older version of CCS you can try finding it from there.

Else try downloading it from here: https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/applications_packages/cg_xml/index.htm

Some reading about the utils here: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Code_Generation_Tools_XML_Processing_Scripts

Hope this helps.

I could find the file in my CCS installation (v5.1.0). I am not sure why this utility is missing in your case. I will move this thread to CCS forum so that CCS team can look in to it.

I had the same issue in the past when upgrading CCS 5.1 (there were a couple of minor releases).

At one point the location of the .bat moved to a different folder. Just search in your CCS tree and adapt the post build step accordingly (or update to the latest CCS 5.1 version)

Regards.

Thank you all,

Tried searching it in TI folder, could not find it.

Followed Sriram's instructions and got the .bat file. Things are working well now :)

Thank you again.

I have the exact same problem: my first exposure to CCS, I installed Version: 5.1.1.00028 last week (note that I had to download the full CCS install image to my PC first, then install it locally because the streaming install from TI's servers over the internet was giving an error). Now I'm trying to recompile one of the starterware demo projects, and all is fine until the post-build. I don't have C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/tiobj2bin/mkhex4bin.exe or C:/ti/ccsv5/utils/tiobj2bin/tiobj2bin.bat in my installation. My "utils" folder only has a bin subfolder (which contains gmake, unzip, etc.) and a cygwin subfolder: that's it.
