Where is this .ini file defined ?

Hi,

I load an example project for TMS320C6678 EVM board. One file (macro.ini_initial) has some variable defined in it. I have checked the project property and do not find any option relating to the macro.ini_initial file. Could you tell me where this file is used in this project?

Regards,

    I forgot to attach the file structure in last post. Thanks.

    In many example projects provided by TI, a macros.ini file is included which defines linked resource path variables and build variables to make the project portable.

    For some background on what those variables are/mean, take a look at this wiki page: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Portable_Projects

    I assume you imported an examples into CCSv5 (since the file is renamed to _initial). If so, you can check those variables are correctly defined by looking in 2 places:
    Project Properties->Resource->Linked Resources, Path Variables tab and
    Project Properties->Build->Variables tab

    These variables are then used for linking project soure files, so their paths are set relative to those variables. They are also used within compiler and linker options when setting paths to include files, library files etc.

    Hope this helps.
