CCS v5.1 unnecessary projects get built

You have a zipped copy of this source obtained from Robert Liang.  I am building project PLC_dfu build configuration Debug_F2806X.  There are 7 projects listed on the dependency table yet 12 projects get built.  During interactive use, the console screens go by so fast it is difficult to notice.  When I ran a batch script and captured the output, it was apparent that lots of extra, unused projects are being built.

    I'm not sure of the context here. Was this thread split from another thread?

  • Ki-Soo,

    No.  This is a new problem.  When a project with 7 library dependencies gets built using CCS v5.1, 12 library projects get built.  The lack of a contiguous build log makes this difficult to catch when using the GUI.  I found this problem reviewing build logs for batch file processing.

    No wonder the builds take so long.  Almost 50% of the build time is waste.

    Robert has given your group zipped source for a very slow import problem (75 minutes for our project) that is apparent in version CCS v5.2 and later.  You can use this source to repeat and hopefully correct the problem.

    I hope that you can fix CCS v5.1.  The additional problems added to your tool in version v5.2 and later literally make your tool unusable.

  • Bill,

    Which Robert? And to whom was this zipped source provided? There are many people who monitor these forums, some on my team, some who are not.

    If it was myself who received this zip, I apologize for asking. I deal with many different CCS issues daily so sometimes it is hard for me to keep track of them all. If there is a thread I can reference, please provide the link here.

    Thanks

  • Which Robert? Robert Liang, see initial posting.

    Code given to Martin Swiezawski.

    Reproducing problem should be easy.  Just build PLC_dfu / Debug_F2806x from command line.  12 libraries get built.  Only 7 in dependency table.  What gives?
