Setting a build variable to use path variables



I have a build variable I created for the location of the BIOS directory I am using.  Right now the value is an absolute path, but I want to change it to a relative path based on the CCS install directory.

So right now it is:

C:/ti/bios_5_20_05/packages/ti/bios/include

And I want it to be something like:

CCS_INSTALL_ROOT\..\bios_5_20_05\packages\ti\bios\include

where CCS_INSTALL_ROOT is C:\ti\ccsv5

 

But when I do this I get errors.  Am I using the variable correctly?

  • Hi David,

    The syntax for usage of build variables in the build properties is as so:

    ${BUILD VARIABLE}

    David Sabol said:

    CCS_INSTALL_ROOT\..\bios_5_20_05\packages\ti\bios\include

    where CCS_INSTALL_ROOT is C:\ti\ccsv5

    Then use it as:

    ${CCS_INSTALL_ROOT}\..\bios_5_20_05\packages\ti\bios\include

    Thanks
