Image Analyzer causes CCSv5.2.0.00057_LINUX BETA to crash

Marcus,

I wasn't able to reproduce this issue. Could you attach the property file that you're using? Are you reading the image from file or from a connected device? If device, which? Do you see any error messages in the Image view? Could you also send me the file .metadata/.log in your workspace folder?

Thank you,

Oliver

Oliver,

sorry, you are right, I should give some more details. I get the image from a connected device, which is an EVMC6678L multicore board, and I use a Spectrum Digital XDS560v2STM debugger connected via USB.

I want to read and display a grey level image with one byte per pixel. The image is stored in the DDR3 at address 0x800020b0h and has a size of 1920*1080 bytes.
For the contents of the properties file see below.

Here is what I exactly have to do to reproduce the issue:

- Start CCS
- Turn on hardware and launch target configuration
- Connect all cores, start GEL file
- Open image analyzer, import the properties shown below
  (Now I see a random pattern of course)
- Try to import the same (or any other)  properties file again
- This is the moment when CCS crashes. The file dialog does not
  appear any more, and no CCS window is updated any more,
  and no CPU load is produced.

I get the same behavior, if I start the IA later after loading and running a programm on the Cores (except for the random image).

The .metadata/.log file is about 1MB and contains a whole lot of java exception messages. I think it is too long to be posted here. Can you provide an e-mail address to send to? Or should I delete it and let CCS create a new one?

Here are the properties:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<java version="1.6.0_13" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder">
 <object class="com.ti.dvt.ui.views.core.ImageProp">

    </void>
    <void property="startAddress">

    </void>
   </object>
  </void>
  <void property="scrollLock">
   <boolean>true</boolean>
  </void>
 </object>
</java>

Thanks for your help

Marcus,

Thank you. I haven't been able to reproduce the problem. Can you zip up the .log file and attach it? If it's still too big please send it to o-sohm1 AT ti DOT com.

Thanks,

Oliver

Oliver,

sorry for the long delay in my answer.

Due to a hard disk failure I had to reinstall the Linux OS and CCS, so I switched from Ubuntu 10.04 to 11.04 and from CCS5.2.0BETA to 5.2.0. The Image analyzer problem did not occur any more, it seemed to be caused by a special condition on the old installation.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Marcus
