Hey all,
I've been browsing the forums a bit and found this has come up a few times from other folks importing from earlier versions of code composer. I've tried a few of the solutions but they still don't seem to work in CCS5.
The project I have has been imported from CCS3 (I've read that the explorer is handled differently). I've tried this suggestion on the boards, and the header files show up in my explorer, but the project still doesn't seem to recognize them being there. I have errrors that the files can't be found even though they have been linked and display in the explorer window:
Another thing you could do is create a folder, maybe call it Headers. Then go to your windows explorer. Drag all the files that you want to see in the project view into this headers folder. When you drag in a file a dialog will appear asking you if you want to add the file or link it. If you select add it will copy the file into the folder so instead select link. This will create an entry in the folder for the file but won't copy it. This could make it easier for you to navigate your files. - John S on Mar 26, 12 10:57am
So I'm assuming in order for CCS to get rid of these errors, the headers need to show up in the "Includes" paths up at the top of the explorer, rather than in any other folder within the project itself. This is the second recommendation I'm trying to get to work right now, but am stuck with where to find this:
Paths to header files should still be specified in the compiler options under "include options". The directories specified under the compiler include options will then appear in the Project Explorer view but it will be a link to the entire folder, not display only the header files being used by the project. - AartiG on Mar 26 2012
I've gone to Project -> Properties -> CSS Build -> C2000 Compiler and now I'm stuck....could anyone offer up some help?
PS. I'm new to CCS's environment, feel free to be as detailed as possible!
Don
