Grace new CSS project

Hi Marco,

you access the Grace examples through the Resource Explorer.  Help->Welcome to CCS will open it for you.  The Grace examples do not come up in the new project wizard that I am aware of.

Hope this helps clarify.  Please give that a try and keep us informed.

Best Regards,

Strange. The installed components seem to be there and the selection in the dialog is correct.

The only thing I noticed is that you are using a vmware network directory. Where is CCS installed? It is a known issue that CCS is very picky when it comes to directories. Therefore we do strongly recommend to install it in the C:\TI folder, along with all its needed components.

My recommendation for you is to download CCSv5.2.1 and install this version under C:\TI.

CCS 5.2 is installed on Win7 running inside a VMWare fusion box. 

The TI Explorer doesn't seem to work ok, there may be some issues with paths, but everything is installed in the virtual C:\TI directory...

What do you mean by "virtual C:\ti directory"? If you installed CCS in a virtual machine, the guest system should not notice anything different from a "normal" installation, right?

What path issues do you mean? Did you change anything from the default Windows setting?

Did you try and reinstall CCS?

Correct. Still the C: drive is virtual, is not the root of the main hard drive. But yes, shouldn't make any difference to Win7.

I did not make any changes from the default Windows setting.

I've reinstalled CCS 3 times so far, after unistalling it every time.

The TI explore does not look like it should, I cannot explore examples or anything else.

Marco,

do you see issues with the help?  I am wondering if there is a proxy issue here or permissions.  What do you see if you try Project->CCS Example Projects?

Could you possible send the contents of your installjammer registry directory?  (found under program files or program files(x86))

Best Regards,

Help system seems to be working fine.

Project->CCS Example Projects doesn't do anything (nothing happens when I click on that)

Again, the TI Resource explorer is not loading properly (see pics I posted previously)

There is no installjammer registry directory to be found under Program Files (both of them)

I had the feeling something didn't work with the installation, and that's why I repeated it, but same result. It's probably some interaction between vmware and Win7.

Hi Marco,

let me confirm but I think the problem might be CCS can't handle virtual folders/paths.   I run CCS successfully within a VM, however my understanding is that virtual drives are not supported. 

As soon as I have feedback I will let you know.

Best Regards,

Hi Marco,

eclipse/ccs does indeed seem to not like handling virtual/soft linked folders.  Is there any chance you can try a non virtual folder and verify?

Best Regards,

Hi Lisa,

thank you. I'm not expert on Win7, but as far as I understand it CCS is installed on C:\TI.

Not sure how i can try a non virtual folder...

This is the directory structure:
