Importing TCP/IP stack project in evaluation ccs v5 does not work

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

Hi, I am trying to learn how to use the ccs at home this weekend.
I am working on a project that will use the new tcpip stack 2.0 and I just wanted to use the import project project in my evaluation copy of ccs.
It does not show up in the project explorer as I expected it to do, is it something with the evaluation ccs?
I get no error messages.
Regards
Patrik

    Hi Patrik,

    Have you tried from the menu system?  Project->Import existing CCS/Eclipse Project?

    Yes, and from the resource explorer same result nothing in the project explorer.
    On the other hand I have these entries in the error log, I use Windows 7 64bit:

    Hi Patrik,

    are you trying to install the NDK (TCP/IP stack)?  Or us a demo?  Have you made sure to have the latest version of both CCS and the NDK?

    Or are you importing a demo project? 

    Please keep me informed.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

    Hi, I guess I try to explain what I am trying to achieve.
    At work I am trying to compile the TCP/IP stack in the NDK for our C64 board. When I could not get any success this Friday (same error as this), sitting at home I thought I can try to learn the new CCS v5 this weekend by trying to build the same TCP/IP stack in the NDK.
    I think I have the latest of both CCS (Version: 5.1.0.09000)

    and NDK (2_20_06_35), but I am a little suspicious about that the environment have initialized OK.
    I get no error when importing the projects.

    I think I will try some demo project, but it would be nice to be able to open a bigger project to see how it's designed because in the near future I think we will try to port our product from CCS 3.3 (nmake) to CCS v5

    Regards
    Patrik

    Hi Patrik,

    what example are you trying that comes in blank?  Or are you trying to import a v3 project?

    Can you please do the following to ensure the NDK installed correctly.   See the screenshot below from Window->Preferences->Code Composer Studio->RTSC->Products

    Please keep us informed.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

    But you see I don't really use the NDK I want to build it from the source I have downloaded.
    But that project don't appear in the project explorer.
    So my question is, Is it beacuase the evaluation for 90 days have targets that makes it impossible to do that?
    (In that case it would be nice to got some error that this project is not compatible with the CCS v5 that I've got.)

    Hi Patrik,

    I am still not sure I understand what exactly you are trying to do.  Have you confirmed CCS finds the NDK?  Sorry I think the screenshot did not turn out last time ... please see below.

    Best Regards,

    LIsa

    Yes, if I add the NDK source library as a package it will turn up in the view as you show.
    But I want to build the NDK from the project files in the directory where the NDK source lies.
    I can import the project but the project is not displayed anyware so I can not tell the CCS to build it.
    Is there another way to build packages?

    Hi Patrik,

    ok I think I understand what you are experiencing.   I tried to import the source build project and CCS found it but the project explorer remains empty.  Is this what you mean?  Let me look into this as, although possibly for quite a different reason, I think I have seen similar behaviour in the past.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

    Exactly, would be nice to know what it is.
    Otherwise the CCS v5 looks pretty impressing.

    Regards

    Patrik

    Hi Patrik,

    ok, sorry for not getting back to you any earlier.

    I do have some feedback so let's hope this will help with the issue you saw regarding the blank project explorer.

    One thing we found was that CCSv5 seems to need a .cdtproject file in order for it to import properly.  CCSv4 did not seem to require this.

    Could you try adding a generic .cdtproject either from an empty project you create or the attached and see if this helps?

    Please keep us informed.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

    Hi Patrik,

    I have been able to track down some further feedback/information for you.

    The NDK project is not a CCS project. It is a modified standard make project that uses XDC instead of gmake to build. In CCSv4 import CCS/CCE project leveraged mostly standard CDT importer and hence it did not really matter whether you used Import CCS/CCE project or if you used Fille->Import->Existing project. In CCSv5.x this matters as CCS import menu does CCS project specific things. My guess is that since it does not find CCS tags it fails silently.

    If you use File->Import : General : Existing Project, then it imports fine into CCS. However, I was not able to actually get it to build as it seems to be pretty complicated to setup. See this website for instructions:

     Please keep us informed whether this finally helps with your issue.
