Code Composer Studio 5.2 in Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit

Hello,

 I have a similar problem on Ubuntu 11.04/64Bit. CCSv5.2 shows a bunch of error messages in the shell after startup AND during usage.

Here is an excerpt:

------------

/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

----------------

Many of these messages are repeated very often. The  ia32-libs are installed.

The splash screen is not displayed correctly, no scrollbars and progress bars are shown, in the pulldown menu entry under the mouse pointer is not highlighted, and many other GUI elements are missing. CCS is hardly usable.

Connecting a device via STM560v2 works, however.

On Ubuntu 10.04 / 64bit  everything went ok.

unfortunately the Launchpad is not yet supported under Linux, only the USB FET.

When will CCS support the launchpad?

Hi Tod,

I can not make any promises, but we are working on it.  Hopefully we will see it added in one of the coming releases ...

Best Regards,

Hi Lisa and Tod,

I think the ELFCLASS warnings are not related to the LaunchPad problem but to the 64Bit Linux. Eclipse tries to use 64Bit libraries even if the 32Bit versions are installed. This problem is also known from other applications as I could find out from here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+bug/781870

I could get rid of the most warnings by starting ccs this way from a shell:

$~: GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE=/usr/lib32/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache /opt/ti/ccsv5/eclipse/ccstudio

There are still some ELFCLASS warnings remaining, but they do not seems to cause any problems as far as I can say now. The GUI works fine now. This problem seems to be specific to Ubuntu 11.04/64bit.

Sorry for the confusion.

Well, well, well. It would have saved me a lot of time just if it was mentioned in release notes... :-(

thanks a lot Marcus for this it helped a lot for the startup of ccstudio v5.2. on my ubuntu 11.10 64bits

but as you say there are still a lot of these error and the most important seems to be

/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Failed to load module: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so

how can find out the equivalent magic command for it?

Philippe,

the only remaining error message on my system is

/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

which does not seem to have any effect on the ccs functionality.

The error message that you have reported does not occur for me, sorry. But perhaps this link may help:

https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+question/136106

HI

I read the link that you send and that seems too complicated for me :(

I search also and I have both libraries for 64 and 32 bits

/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so
/usr/lib32/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so

In the end even if I fix this (somehow) it won't help me since apparently my TI-Launchpas MPS430 is not supported by Cs v5.2

thanks again
