Importing CCS V3.3 Project to CCS V4.2

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28335

We use CCS v3.3 for our projects for a long time. Since our computer OS needs to be upgraded to window7 and CCS v3.3 only supports XP, we have to upgrade our CCS to v4.2 as well along with all our projects.

The first project i imported from CCS V3.3 to CCS V4.2 uses TMS320F28335 DSP with Spectrum Digital C2000 JTAG emulator in C.
I used "project -> import legacy ccsv3.3 project" function to import the project.

After i imported the project the CCS V4.2 compiler issued a lot errors occurred as shown below:

Error Could not open source file "rtwtypes.h"
etc

Can you let me know why the compiler is unable to find the file even though i used the project import utility with no errors or warnings

Thanks

 

  • Hi Derek,

    what options did you select when importing?   Is this a project dependent on control suite? A bit further information might help

    This is potentially

    - a permissions issue ... the upgrade to Win 7 means a windows version with much strickter directory read/write rules.    Please make sure you have admin rights as well as if possible are avoiding the project files directory

    - depending on the import options, it is possible a link/file path is missing.  Please check the include paths for your project and linked resources.

    - there are unfortunately a couple known small issues with this import.   For example, we have found some control suite projects should be imported to an old CCSv4 version before the project will work in v4.2 or 5.1.   (If this is the case I can save you an install if you wish to send us the project offline in a conversation or friend request).

    Please keep us informed.

    Best Regards,

    Lisa

  • Hi Lisa,

     

    I wont be able to send you the project due to confidentiality issues.

    Please suggest an alternative to this.

  • Hi Derek,

    understood.  Please then send as much information as possible about exactly what you are importing.  The settings you selected.   Whether the include paths are all there etc etc.


    Best Regards,

    Lisa

  • Derek,

    If you are upgrading from 3.3 I would not recommend upgrading to 4.2, I would highly recommend updating straight to 5.1.

    Are you using code generated by the Mathworks?  The reason I ask is that rtwtypes.h is typically Real Time Workshop Types and comes from the MathWorks Real Time Workshop.  As Lisa mentioned please check to make sure you have your include paths setup correctly to point to the location of this file.  

    Is the file present on your machine?

    Regards,

  • john,

    While we are working on the floating license server setup for CCv5 I need to get one running on the tmep license but the web interface doesn't like the code I'm using. Can you help?

  • Derek,

    The letters will need to be upper case.  Did you receive the code via an email?  If so try to just copy and paste as if you get even 1 character wrong it is not going to work.

    I tried the code with uppercase and I got paste the first screen but then it couldn't find the code, could be 1 bad character.  If not I can get you a new code.

    Regards,

    John

  • The code presented in the application license registration is shown here in upper case however it is lower case in the application. We tried lowercase 4char with dashes, we tried 3 groups with spaces, 3 groups with dashes. Any other ideas. (And we have not gotten past the entry process on the web interface so there has been no emails yet.)

  • I am getting a not found error now.  I will send you a private forum message.  If you reply to it with your email address I will have the system send you a new activation code.

  • Hi Derek,

    we are a touch stumped here.   What is the status on the hardware servers.  Perhaps those are best to debug as the next step.  Are we sure the correct MAC address of the server was selelcted?  Are you at a point where the tidspssw vendor daemon is running?  Could you possibly send the log? This may have useful messages in it to help us.

    What is your problem with the web interface?  This could be a browser issue.  Old IE versions don't work with the web license manager interface.

    Do you think a webex/call would be best here?

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

  • Just realized I have your email from another thread.

  • Lisa, John,

     

    Yes a call would be a god idea.Let me know whn you are available,

    Derek

  • Hi Derek,

    I am going to set something up for 10:30am Toronto time tomorrow.  I just had contact with Mike.


    Cheers,
    Lisa

  • Hi Derek,

    I believe you got the email this was resolved in the call the morning offline.  In the end, the license tools needed to be added to the Windows DEP exception list.
