Creating a new OMAP4430 CCSv5 project

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: 4430

Hi,

Would like to create a new OMAP4430 project.

File > New > CCS PRoject

Under the Family dropdown menu there is no OMAP4430. Why not?

Can I write code and  compile for an OMAP4430 if the family is not listed?

Do I need to load some support files?

Is there a simulator for the OMAP4430?

Thank you,

Bruce.

    Bruce,

    The general expectation is that OMAP4 users are running a high level OS and thus are using gcc to build Linux/Android or Microsoft tools to build WinCE.  If you are looking to use use TI compiler and run "baremetal" (no-HLOS) that can be done.  You won't see OMAP4 in the device drop down but you can select Generic A8 instead.  The A8 generated code should be fine on the A9s on OMAP4.   You would also need to create a linker command file for it so that the linker places the memory in the correct location.

    I have seen some other examples of people running no-HLOS or running smaller kernels on the pandaboard site: http://pandaboard.org/

    No simulator.

    Regards,

    John

    I too want to know how to writing simple code (like GPIO toggling) in OMAP, so that I can build more code on top of it (to write/read to SD card)

    So I downloaded CCS v5.1 and I can see OMAP 4430 device in the familiy list.

    Though yet to figure out how to get this simple code working.

    Thanks,

    RD

    This topic is of interest to me too.  I followed your advice to create a new project this way, but do not see the C-run-time-0 (assembly) code.  I did this by creating with both an empty-assembly-only project and as a hello-world project.  I'd like to hook into the interrupt vector of the Cortex-A9.  Where can I find this code?

    Thanks,

    Hi Errett,

    I do not have the answer to question. But if you want the TI support to answer your question you are better off to open a new thread with your question as the new title. You are more likely to get an answer from a new open thread, as this one has been answered and verified; effectively means it is closed by TI support.

    Bruce.
